Graph processing systems are essential for analyzing large-scale data with complex relationships, yet most existing frameworks rely on statically provisioned clusters, resulting in poor elasticity and inefficient resource utilization under…
Network function virtualization (NFV) enhances service flexibility by decoupling network functions from dedicated hardware. To handle time-varying traffic in NFV network, virtualized network function (VNF) migration has been involved to…
Internet traffic continues to grow exponentially, calling for switches that can scale well in both size and speed. While load-balanced switches can achieve such scalability, they suffer from a fundamental packet reordering problem. Existing…
Neural networks have been successfully employed in various domains such as classification, regression and clustering, etc. Generally, the back propagation (BP) based iterative approaches are used to train the neural networks, however, it…
The rapid scaling of Large Language Models (LLMs) has achieved remarkable performance, but it also leads to prohibitive memory costs. Existing parameter-efficient approaches such as pruning and quantization mainly compress pretrained models…
Future mobile networks supporting Internet of Things are expected to provide both high throughput and low latency to user-specific services. One way to overcome this challenge is to adopt Network Function Virtualization (NFV) and…
Speed scaling for a tandem server setting is considered, where there is a series of servers, and each job has to be processed by each of the servers in sequence. Servers have a variable speed, their power consumption being a convex…
