METHODS, ARCHITECTURES, APPARATUSES AND SYSTEMS FOR AI/ML MODEL DISTRIBUTION

Procedures, methods, architectures, apparatuses, systems, devices, and computer program products comprising: sending, by a first Wireless Transmit/Receive Unit (WTRU) to a network entity, a subscription request for downloading an AI/ML model, the AI/ML model comprising a first model portion, and one or more further model portions; determining a second WTRU storing at least the first model portion of the AI/ML model; sending, to the network entity, first information comprising an indication of the second WTRU; receiving, from the network entity, second information indicating a schedule for downloading at least the first model portion of the AI/ML model from the second WTRU; and downloading, from the second WTRU via a device-to-device communication between the first WTRU and the second WTRU, at least the first model portion of the AI/ML model at a scheduled time using the second information.
