We introduce Semantic Intent Fragmentation (SIF), an attack class against LLM orchestration systems where a single, legitimately phrased request causes an orchestrator to decompose a task into subtasks that are individually benign but…
A multitude of privacy breaches, both accidental and malicious, have prompted users to distrust centralized providers of online social networks (OSNs) and investigate decentralized solutions. We examine the design of a fully decentralized…
We present Henge, a system to support intent-based multi-tenancy in modern stream processing applications. Henge supports multi-tenancy as a first-class citizen: everyone inside an organization can now submit their stream processing jobs to…
Telecommunication networks are increasingly expected to operate autonomously while supporting heterogeneous services with diverse and often conflicting intents -- that is, performance objectives, constraints, and requirements specific to…
