Task-Specific Resource Orchestration for Effective Concurrent Heterogeneous Task Completion in ISCC Systems

Abstract

Effective provision of integrated sensing, communication, and computation (ISCC) services in future networks will inevitably increase their operational complexity. The distinct requirements of diverse tasks for tailored ISCC devices further exacerbate the challenge of adaptively allocating constrained resources among concurrent tasks. To address these difficulties, a task-specific joint resource orchestration scheme is proposed in this paper to enhance the effectiveness of ISCC operation and heterogeneous tasks completion. Specifically, the completion of concurrent heterogeneous tasks by different devices relies on the task-specific sharing of limited resource among sensing, real-time data computing and delay-tolerant data processing. Consequently, a value of multi-task completion (VoC) indicator is designed to connect and balance among the diverse demands from concurrent tasks, including computing rate, time delay, and sensing performance. The VoC is then maximized by collaborative optimization of multi-dimensional resources, including transmit beamformer, local and offloading CPU-cycle frequency, data factor assignment and computation capacity. To solve this challenging optimization problem with the lack of close-form solution and coupling of multi-variables, we first transform it into an equivalent form that is tractable to handle. Next, the problem is decomposed into several subproblems, which can be approximately solved by iterative updates. Simulation results demonstrate the performance enhancement of the proposed scheme is superior to the benchmarks.
