Edge inference is a technology that enables real-time data processing and analysis on clients near the data source. To ensure compliance with the Service-Level Objectives (SLOs), such as a 30% latency reduction target, caching is usually…

This letter considers a multi-access mobile edge computing (MEC) network consisting of multiple users, multiple base stations, and a malicious eavesdropper. Specifically, the users adopt the partial offloading strategy by partitioning the…

Coded caching is a technique where we utilize multi-casting opportunities to reduce rate in cached networks. One limitation of coded caching schemes is that they reveal the demands of all users to their peers. In this work, we consider…

With the growing use of large language models (LLMs) hosted on cloud platforms to offer inference services, privacy concerns about the potential leakage of sensitive information are escalating. Secure multi-party computation (MPC) is a…

Under the paradigm of caching, partial data is delivered before the actual requests of users are known. In this paper, this problem is modeled as a canonical distributed source coding problem with side information, where the side…

An attacker can gain information of a user by analyzing its network traffic. The size of transferred data leaks information about the file being transferred or the service being used, and this is particularly revealing when the attacker has…

Privacy-preserving inference in edge computing paradigms encourages the users of machine-learning services to locally run a model on their private input and only share the models outputs for a target task with the server. We study how a…

Consider a multi-cell mobile edge computing network, in which each user wishes to compute the product of a user-generated data matrix with a network-stored matrix. This is done through task offloading by means of input uploading,…

We consider the problem of downloading content from a cellular network where content is cached at the wireless edge while achieving privacy. In particular, we consider private information retrieval (PIR) of content from a library of files,…

This paper investigates task-oriented communication for multi-device cooperative edge inference, where a group of distributed low-end edge devices transmit the extracted features of local samples to a powerful edge server for inference.…

Caching at the wireless edge can be used to keep up with the increasing demand for high-definition wireless video streaming. By prefetching popular content into memory at wireless access points or end-user devices, requests can be served…

Caching is an efficient way to reduce network traffic congestion during peak hours by storing some content at the user's local cache memory without knowledge of later demands. For the shared-link caching model, Maddah-Ali and Niesen (MAN)…

Machine learning at the edge offers great benefits such as increased privacy and security, low latency, and more autonomy. However, a major challenge is that many devices, in particular edge devices, have very limited memory, weak…

Originated from distributed learning, federated learning enables privacy-preserved collaboration on a new abstracted level by sharing the model parameters only. While the current research mainly focuses on optimizing learning algorithms and…

Most existing secure neural network inference protocols based on secure multi-party computation (MPC) typically support at most four participants, demonstrating severely limited scalability. Liu et al. (USENIX Security'24) presented the…

We present a practical system for privacy-aware large language model (LLM) inference that splits a transformer between a trusted local GPU and an untrusted cloud GPU, communicating only intermediate activations over the network. Our system…

Large Language Models (LLMs) enable various applications on edge devices such as smartphones, wearables, and embodied robots. However, their deployment often depends on expensive cloud-based APIs, creating high operational costs, which…

With the growing demand for latency-critical and computation-intensive Internet of Things (IoT) services, the IoT-oriented network architecture, mobile edge computing (MEC), has emerged as a promising technique to reinforce the computation…

Two enablers of the 5th Generation (5G) of mobile communication systems are the high data rates achievable with millimeter-wave radio signals and the cloudification of the network's mobile edge, made possible also by Multi-access Edge…

This paper studies the tradeoff in privacy and utility in a single-trial multi-terminal guessing (estimation) framework using a system model that is inspired by index coding. There are $n$ independent discrete sources at a data curator.…
