The bottleneck of satellite-to-ground links poses a major challenge for the timely downlink of massive on-board imagery. This paper studies adaptive image transmission over LEO satellite-to-ground links using joint source-channel coding…
Emergency communications networks require in-network intelligence for timely traffic handling under dynamic demands and runtime constraints. In these environments, packets may need different inference behaviors, and conventional model…
The convergence of Passive Optical Networks (PONs) and edge computing creates new opportunities: Optical Line Terminals (OLTs) and Optical Network Terminals (ONTs) can be repurposed as low-latency edge compute nodes for offloading…
As 6G evolves, the radio access network must transcend traditional automation to embrace agentic AI capable of perception, reasoning, and evolution. A fundamental cognitive gap persists in current disaggregated architectures, where…
We present CloudEmu, a trace-driven, cloud-native cellular-emulation testbed for vehicle video uplink communication. Reliable, low-latency video uplink over cellular networks is essential for remote monitoring of autonomous vehicles.…
Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) is a promising Ethernet protocol with time determinism, widely used in time-critical systems such as industrial automation, automotive networks, and avionics. By allocating dedicated time windows for…
We investigate the control and optimization of vertical federated learning (VFL), a class of distributed machine learning (ML) methods in which edge/fog devices contain separate data features, in dynamic edge/fog networks. Owing to…
We present TSNBench, the first benchmark for evaluating large language model (LLM) proficiency in Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN), a suite of IEEE 802.1 standards for deterministic communication with bounded latency in safety-critical…
Software defined networks offer global visibility, yet centralized control loops are too slow for transient congestion and bursty traffic dynamics. Existing learned traffic control schemes often rely on offline training, making them fragile…
The theoretical model behind the pigeon post as a link layer in a communication network was introduced by Shannon (under the guise of studying One-Time Pads for cryptography). That is, to send a one-hop message to $v$, a node $u$ needs a…
Accurate short-term mobile traffic prediction is important for proactive resource allocation and low-latency network management in fifth generation (5G) and sixth generation (6G). While large language models (LLMs) can perform in-context…
We study the joint optimization of timeliness and reliability in semantics-aware Wireless Networked Control Systems (WNCS) under computation resource constraints. The sampled data are categorized into regular and critical tasks based on the…
GenAI services are in an early yet fast expanding phase. Providers compete on model capability and service quality, while the underlying infrastructure remains expensive and heterogeneous across regions, workloads, and compute assets. If…
This paper discusses how latency guarantees for non-cyclic (feedforward) First-In-First-Out (FIFO) networks with shapers can be computed within the Network Calculus (NC) framework. Shapers are methods implemented in software or hardware and…
This paper investigates the multi-UAV multi-task coordination problem in infrastructure-less emergency scenarios, where UAVs collaboratively are required to jointly perform aerial image acquisition and ground-user communication. To tackle…
Standard transport protocols like TCP operate as a blind, FIFO conveyor belt for data, a model that is increasingly suboptimal for latency-sensitive and interactive applications. This paper challenges this model by introducing CATS…
Self-supervised masked modeling shows promise for encrypted traffic classification by masking and reconstructing raw bytes. Yet recent work reveals these methods fail to reduce reliance on labeled data despite costly pretraining: under…
Cloud-based machine learning is increasingly explored as a preprocessing strategy for next-generation visual neuroprostheses, where advanced scene understanding may exceed the computational and energy constraints of battery-powered visual…
Telerobotic technologies are becoming increasingly essential in fields such as remote surgery, nuclear decommissioning, and space exploration. Reliable datasets and testbeds are essential for evaluating telerobotic system performance prior…
The current state of the art in the agricultural industry for inter-manufacturer, plug-and-play communications is the ISO 11783 standard series, which mandates the use of 250 Kb/s CAN bus. To support higher data rates, the ISO 23870 series…
