In this demo, we introduce FedCampus, a privacy-preserving mobile application for smart \underline{campus} with \underline{fed}erated learning (FL) and federated analytics (FA). FedCampus enables cross-platform on-device FL/FA for both iOS and Android, supporting continuously models and algorithms deployment (MLOps). Our app integrates privacy-preserving processed data via differential privacy (DP) from smartwatches, where the processed parameters are used for FL/FA through the FedCampus backend platform. We distributed 100 smartwatches to volunteers at Duke Kunshan University and have successfully completed a series of smart campus tasks featuring capabilities such as sleep tracking, physical activity monitoring, personalized recommendations, and heavy hitters. Our project is opensourced at https://github.com/FedCampus/FedCampus_Flutter. See the FedCampus video at https://youtu.be/k5iu46IjA38.

Large Language Model (LLM) based multi-agent systems (MAS) have shown promise in tackling complex tasks, but often rely on predefined roles and centralized coordination, limiting their adaptability to evolving challenges. This paper introduces MorphAgent, a novel Autonomous, Self-Organizing, and Self-Adaptive Multi-Agent System for decentralized agent collaboration that enables agents to dynamically evolve their roles and capabilities. Our approach employs self-evolving agent profiles, optimized through three key metrics, guiding agents in refining their individual expertise while maintaining complementary team dynamics. MorphAgent implements a two-phase process: a Profile Update phase for profile optimization, followed by a Task Execution phase where agents continuously adapt their roles based on task feedback. Our experimental results show that MorphAgent outperforms existing frameworks in terms of task performance and adaptability to changing requirements, paving the way for more robust and versatile multi-agent collaborative systems.

Federated Unlearning (FU) enables the removal of specific clients' data influence from trained models. However, in non-IID settings, removing clients creates critical side effects: remaining clients with similar data distributions suffer disproportionate performance degradation, while the global model's stability deteriorates. These vulnerable clients then have reduced incentives to stay in the federation, potentially triggering a cascade of withdrawals that further destabilize the system. To address this challenge, we develop a theoretical framework that quantifies how data heterogeneity impacts unlearning outcomes. Based on these insights, we model FU as a Stackelberg game where the server strategically offers payments to retain crucial clients based on their contribution to both unlearning effectiveness and system stability. Our rigorous equilibrium analysis reveals how data heterogeneity fundamentally shapes the trade-offs between system-wide objectives and client interests. Our approach improves global stability by up to 6.23\%, reduces worst-case client degradation by 10.05\%, and achieves up to 38.6\% runtime efficiency over complete retraining.
