contents Cross-layer resource allocation over mobile edge computing (MEC)-aided cell-free networks can sufficiently exploit the transmitting and computing resources to promote the data rate. However, the technical bottlenecks of traditional methods pose significant challenges to cross-layer optimization. In this paper, joint subcarrier allocation and beamforming optimization are investigated for the MEC-aided cell-free network from the perspective of deep learning to maximize the weighted sum rate. Specifically, we convert the underlying problem into a joint multi-task optimization problem and then propose a centralized multi-task self-supervised learning algorithm to solve the problem so as to avoid costly manual labeling. Therein, two novel and general loss functions, i.e., negative fraction linear loss and exponential linear loss whose advantages in robustness and target domain have been proved and discussed, are designed to enable self-supervised learning. Moreover, we further design a MEC-enabled distributed multi-task self-supervised learning (DMTSSL) algorithm, with low complexity and high scalability to address the challenge of dimensional disaster. Finally, we develop the distance-aware transfer learning algorithm based on the DMTSSL algorithm to handle the dynamic scenario with negligible computation cost. Simulation results under $3$rd generation partnership project 38.901 urban-macrocell scenario demonstrate the superiority of the proposed algorithms over the baseline algorithms.
