This letter presents a primitive-based ML framework for deploying network functions directly onto the programmable dataplane. The ML primitives are introduced as modular building blocks that enable software-to-hardware model translation. We demonstrate the framework’s functionality by defining primitives for an Artificial Neural Network model. Additionally, a two-stage approximation–model pruning and hardware-aware primitive tuning–reduces the implementation complexity of the ML model. The resulting implementation maintains inference accuracy and resource efficiency, making it suitable for resource-constrained data plane environments.","PeriodicalId":100628,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Networking Letters","volume":"8 ","pages":"82-86"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147280905","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Localization fuses Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) and Time of Arrival (TOA) using Gaussian process regression (GPR) aided, inverse-variance weighting, GPR corrects RSSI residual bias and supplies uncertainty, while TOA provides geometric anchoring, yielding robustness to multipath and Non-Line-of-Sight (NLOS) with modest added complexity. The deployment module employs a compute-efficient, discrete-action controller based on Paired Whale Optimization Q-Learning Agent (PWOQLA) initialization with logistic exploration, enabling edge-friendly, CPU-only operation. On a 1 km2 scenario with 1000 devices, the fusion pipeline attains sub-meter accuracy (<inline-formula> <tex-math>$approx 0.33$ </tex-math></inline-formula> m mean error), reducing error by ~94.5% versus weighted/iterative trilateration (~6 m).

Focusing on highway scenarios, this letter proposes a Tripartite Cooperative Semantic Communication (TCSC) framework, which enables Vehicle Users (VUs) to perform semantic task offloading via Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) and Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) communications. Considering task latency and the number of semantic symbols, the framework constructs a Mixed-Integer Nonlinear Programming (MINLP) problem, which is transformed into two subproblems. First, we innovatively propose a multi-agent proximal policy optimization task offloading optimization method based on parametric distribution noise (MAPPO-PDN) to solve the optimization problem of the number of semantic symbols; second, linear programming (LP) is used to optimize the offloading ratio. Simulations show that performance of this scheme is superior to that of other algorithms.","PeriodicalId":100628,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Networking Letters","volume":"8 ","pages":"64-68"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-12-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147280496","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this letter, we propose ULNet, a novel framework that combines coreset-assisted lightweight training with federated unlearning to detect and adapt to anomalies in distributed SDN control planes. Our approach enables SDN controllers to collaboratively train lightweight anomaly detection models using compact coreset representations, significantly reducing communication and computational overhead. To address controller compromise or poisoning, ULNet integrates a Forget-on-Compression mechanism, allowing selective removal of malicious or outdated knowledge without full model retraining. The proposed framework ensures adaptive, privacy-preserving, and scalable detection while remaining compliant with the operational constraints of modern network infrastructures. Experimental results on realistic SDN control-plane datasets demonstrate that ULNet achieves competitive detection performance with up to 70% reduction in communication cost and effective unlearning of malicious contributions.","PeriodicalId":100628,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Networking Letters","volume":"8 ","pages":"5-9"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-12-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147280894","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Current studies use outdated benchmark datasets that do not capture the dynamic, AI-driven traffic of these networks. Additionally, they often rely on payload data for intrusion detection; however, in 5G/6G networks, payloads are typically encrypted, limiting the applicability and effectiveness of these approaches. While some research explores fusion methods, they typically overlook crucial inter- and intra-modal interactions. To address these limitations, this letter applies multimodal fusion methods on a publicly available dataset reflecting realistic 5G/6G conditions. Features are grouped into packet-related, time-related, and length-related modalities. Fusion methods, including bilinear pooling, gated multimodal unit, and block-term tensor decomposition, are employed. Results show that block term tensor decomposition achieves a weighted F1-score of 99.08%, outperforming the other fusion methods by 8.08-16.74%. This letter also provides a comparative discussion on the computational complexity of each fusion method. Finally, a series of ablation experiments is conducted to prove the effectiveness of the introduced approach.","PeriodicalId":100628,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Networking Letters","volume":"7 4","pages":"337-341"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=11186159","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148510671","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the practical utility of these approaches depends on their robustness against real-world adversarial conditions, including code transformations and model adaptation. This work systematically evaluates two state-of-the-art watermarking paradigms: SWEET, which embeds token-level statistical biases, and CodeMark, which leverages semantic-preserving transformations at the statement level. We design experiments under two adversarial settings: (i) spoofing attacks and (ii) watermark-removal attacks. Empirical results reveal that the robustness of different watermarking schemes may differ under varying attack scenarios, but all lack resistance in adversarial environments. Our study underscores the need for future watermarking mechanisms that combine semantic redundancy, structural integrity, and adaptive detection to ensure robustness and corresponding adaptive validation methods in practical deployment scenarios.","PeriodicalId":100628,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Networking Letters","volume":"7 4","pages":"265-269"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148512830","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
