v0.2.0

What's new?

• It's now possible to have examples in external repositories
• Support for models constructed with the Keras Functional API
• Set maximum number of clients in the settings file

combiner:
name:
combinerhost:
combinerport: 12080
max_clients: 50

• Added visualizations on FEDn communication performance to the dashboard
• Added client allocation policy to spread the clients evenly over the combiners
• Use config for s3 model commits instead of a hard-coded bucket name
• Memory management to prevent combiners from going off
• Now possible to upload the compute package through the UI
• Reducer, client and combiner now have their own Dockerfile definitions

Fixes

• Combiners now handle the case when all clients fail to update a model

Other

• Lots of product documentation updates

v0.1.4

• Fixed volume path to prevent combiner crashes from writing every temporary model to RAM memory, and hitting RAM max memory limit.

v0.1.3

• Resolves a bug in the calculation of the average in the combiner which would be affecting smaller models and a few client cases

v0.1.2

Additions:

• Added new plot for time/round
• Added CPU loads and MEM plot for all rounds
• Allocate clients to accepting combiner with the least number of clients
• Monitoring CPU/MEM/ROUNDS with personalized plots
• Added HTML documentation templates, now accessible from FEDn

Fixes:

• Removed flask-dashboard dependency which was previously bloating the Docker image
• Combiner now handles the case when all Clients fails to update the model
• Removed usage of hard-coded "models" bucket for s3 model commits, now using config instead

v0.1.1

Added:

• Pull Request template
• Bug Report and Feature Request templates
• Contribution Guide
• Code of Conduct

v0.1.0
