Attention is typically used to select informative sub-phrases that are used for prediction. This paper investigates the novel use of attention as a form of feature augmentation, i.e, casted attention. We propose Multi-Cast Attention…
Multi-group multicast (MGM) is an increasingly important form of multi-user wireless communications with several potential applications, such as video streaming, federated learning, safety-critical vehicular communications, etc.…
The efficient provision of IPTV services requires support for IP multicasting and IGMP snooping, limiting such services to single operator networks. Information-Centric Networking (ICN), with its native support for multicast seems ideal for…
Recent proposals in multicast overlay construction have demonstrated the importance of exploiting underlying network topology. However, these topology-aware proposals often rely on incremental and periodic refinements to improve the system…
In most existing works on non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA), the decoding order of successive interference cancellation (SIC) is prefixed and based on either the users' channel conditions or their quality of service (QoS) requirements.…
Time series forecasting underpins applications in finance, healthcare, and environmental monitoring. Despite the success of Time Series Foundation Models (TSFMs), existing approaches operate in a unimodal setting and rely on static prompts…
Traditional IP multicast routing is not suitable for cloud data center (DC) networks due to the need for supporting large numbers of groups with large group sizes. State-of-the-art DC multicast routing approaches aim to overcome the…
Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is an interesting concept to provide higher capacity for future wireless communications. In this article, we consider the feasibility and benefits of combining full-duplex operation with NOMA for modern…
Contemporary high-performance service-oriented applications demand a performance efficient run-time monitoring. In this paper, we analyze a hierarchical publish-subscribe architecture for monitoring service-oriented applications. The…
Massive multiple-input-multiple-output (MaMIMO) multicasting has received significant attention over the last years. MaMIMO is a key enabler of 5G systems to achieve the extremely demanding data rates of upcoming services. Multicast in the…
For a network with one sender, $n$ receivers (users) and $m$ possible messages (files), caching side information at the users allows to satisfy arbitrary simultaneous demands by sending a common (multicast) coded message. In the worst-case…
This article addresses the design of multigroup multicast communications in the pinching-antenna system (PASS). A PASS-enabled multigroup transmission framework is proposed to maximize multicast rates under a couple of transmission…
Multipath forwarding consists of using multiple paths simultaneously to transport data over the network. While most such techniques require endpoint modifications, we investigate how multipath forwarding can be done inside the network,…
Millimeter-wave (mmWave) communication plays a vital role to efficiently disseminate large volumes of data in beyond-5G networks. Unfortunately, the directionality of mmWave communication significantly complicates efficient data…
A broadcast strategy for multiple access communication over slowly fading channels is introduced, in which the channel state information is known to only the receiver. In this strategy, the transmitters split their information streams into…
Next-generation internet of things (IoT) applications need trillions of low-powered wireless mobile devices to connect with each other having ultra-reliability and low-latency. Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is a promising technology…
An attractive new feature of connected TV systems consists in allowing users to access past portions of the TV channel. This feature, called time-shifted streaming, is now used by millions of TV viewers. We address in this paper the design…
A novel transmission protocol is conceived for a multi-user, multi-relay, multiple-input--multiple-output orthogonal frequency-division multiple-access (MIMO-OFDMA) cellular network based on joint transmit and receive beamforming. More…
The demand of massive access to the same multimedia content at the same time is one major challenge for next-generation cellular networks in densely-packed urban areas. The content-aware multicast transmission strategies provide promising…
Data aggregation is a promising approach to enable massive machine-type communication (mMTC). Here, we first characterize the aggregation phase where a massive number of machine-type devices transmits to their respective aggregator. By…
