## Abstract (arXiv)

AI-Generated Content (AIGC), as a novel manner of providing Metaverse services in the forthcoming Internet paradigm, can resolve the obstacles of immersion requirements. Concurrently, edge computing, as an evolutionary paradigm of computing in communication systems, effectively augments real-time interactive services. In pursuit of enhancing the accessibility of AIGC services, the deployment of AIGC models (e.g., diffusion models) to edge servers and local devices has become a prevailing trend. Nevertheless, this approach faces constraints imposed by battery life and computational resources when tasks are offloaded to local devices, limiting the capacity to deliver high-quality content to users while adhering to stringent latency requirements. So there will be a tradeoff between the utility of AIGC models and offloading decisions in the edge computing paradigm. This paper proposes a joint optimization algorithm for offloading decisions, computation time, and diffusion steps of the diffusion models in the reverse diffusion stage. Moreover, we take the average error into consideration as the metric for evaluating the quality of the generated results. Experimental results conclusively demonstrate that the proposed algorithm achieves superior joint optimization performance compared to the baselines.
