Current LLM-based services typically require users to submit raw text regardless of its sensitivity. While intuitive, such practice introduces substantial privacy risks, as unauthorized access may expose personal, medical, or legal…
This paper introduces a new family of consensus protocols, namely \emph{Lachesis-class} denoted by $\mathcal{L}$, for distributed networks with guaranteed Byzantine fault tolerance. Each Lachesis protocol $L$ in $\mathcal{L}$ has complete…
Geo-distributed systems often replicate data at multiple locations to achieve availability and performance despite network partitions. These systems must accept updates at any replica and propagate these updates asynchronously to every…
Amortized variational inference in latent-variable forecasters creates a deployment gap: the test-time encoder approximates a training-time optimization-refined latent, but without access to future targets. This gap introduces unnecessary…
An important ingredient of the future 5G systems will be Ultra-Reliable Low-Latency Communication (URLLC). A way to offer URLLC without intervention in the baseband/PHY layer design is to use interface diversity and integrate multiple…
Safety is the foremost concern for autonomous platooning. The vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication delay and the sudden appearance of obstacles will trigger the safety of the intended functionality (SOTIF) issues for autonomous…
