In this paper, we analyze the impact of service deferrals and scheduling on power consumption variability using tools from queueing theory. We consider a generic model for a load aggregator that receive job requests, involving a certain amount of energy to be provided and a deadline. We analyze different scheduling policies and examine the impact of service deferrals, quantifying the tradeoff between variance reduction and attained deadlines.","PeriodicalId":112948,"journal":{"name":"2015 53rd Annual Allerton Conference on Communication, Control, and Computing (Allerton)","volume":"46 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123329107","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}

Recent studies indicate that the data demand patterns of mobile users are predictable. Moreover, the channel quality of mobile users along their navigation paths is predictable by exploiting their location information. This work aims at fusing the statistically predictable demand and channel patterns in devising proactive caching strategies that alleviate network congestion. Specifically, we establish a fundamental bound on the minimum possible cost achievable by any proactive scheduler under time-invariant demand and channel statistics as a function of their prediction uncertainties, and develop an asymptotically optimal proactive service policy that attains this bound as the prediction window grows. In addition, the established bound yields insights on how the demand and channel statistics affect proactive caching decisions. We reveal some of these insights through numerical investigations.","PeriodicalId":112948,"journal":{"name":"2015 53rd Annual Allerton Conference on Communication, Control, and Computing (Allerton)","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126723071","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}

We analyze diffusion-like algorithms where each agent maintains an internal state which it updates at each time step using its local input together with information it receives from neighboring agents. The agent's estimate of the global average input is then a local function of its internal state. Local memory on each agent can be used to enhance the performance of average consensus estimators in several ways. Agents can use memory to store both internal state variables as well as intermediate diffusion calculations within each time step. We exploit memory to design two types of estimators. First, we design feedback estimators which track constant input signals with zero steady-state error. Such estimators produce estimates that converge exponentially to the global average, and we consider the cost of an estimator to be the largest time constant of the exponential decay of its estimation errors. However, we measure time using normalized units of communicated real variables per agent, so that estimators requiring more communication per time step are potentially costlier even if they converge in fewer time steps. We then show that a certain estimator having two internal state variables and one diffusion calculation per time step achieves the minimal cost over all graphs and all estimators with one or two states no matter how many intermediate diffusion calculations are stored. Second, we design a feedforward estimator which tracks time-varying signals whose frequencies lie below some cut-off frequency. The steady-state error is finite, but can be made arbitrarily small using enough diffusion calculations per time step.","PeriodicalId":112948,"journal":{"name":"2015 53rd Annual Allerton Conference on Communication, Control, and Computing (Allerton)","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126892900","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}

We show that only a very restricted set of functions can be computed if the nodes do not know (and cannot use) the number of their out-neighbors. Our results remain valid even if nodes know the precise structure of the network but do not know where they lie within the structure. They also remain valid if nodes know their out-degree up to an uncertainty of 1. These results are a variation of those obtained by Boldi and Vigna (1997) for a weaker computation model. As a consequence, computing more complex functions in the context of broadcast communications requires the explicit or implicit knowledge or use of either (a) the out-degree of each node, (b) global node identifiers, (c) randomization, or (d) asynchronous updates with specific properties.","PeriodicalId":112948,"journal":{"name":"2015 53rd Annual Allerton Conference on Communication, Control, and Computing (Allerton)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130658904","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}

By prefetching popular content into memory at wireless access points or end user devices, requests can be served locally, relieving strain on expensive backhaul. In addition, using network coding allows the simultaneous serving of distinct cache misses via common coded multicast transmissions, resulting in significantly larger load reductions compared to those achieved with conventional delivery schemes. However, prior work does not exploit the properties of video and simply treats content as fixed-size files that users would like to fully download. Our work is motivated by the fact that video can be coded in a scalable fashion and that the decoded video quality depends on the number of layers a user is able to receive. Using a Gaussian source model, caching and coded delivery methods are designed to minimize the squared error distortion at end user devices. Our work is general enough to consider heterogeneous cache sizes and video popularity distributions.","PeriodicalId":112948,"journal":{"name":"2015 53rd Annual Allerton Conference on Communication, Control, and Computing (Allerton)","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128909279","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}

However, stochastic optimization of the deep CCA objective is not straightforward, because it does not decouple over training examples. Previous optimizers for deep CCA are either batch-based algorithms or stochastic optimization using large minibatches, which can have high memory consumption. In this paper, we tackle the problem of stochastic optimization for deep CCA with small minibatches, based on an iterative solution to the CCA objective, and show that we can achieve as good performance as previous optimizers and thus alleviate the memory requirement.","PeriodicalId":112948,"journal":{"name":"2015 53rd Annual Allerton Conference on Communication, Control, and Computing (Allerton)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115344364","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}

The development is based on exploiting various local properties of shortest paths, and on formulating and solving an unconstrained distributed optimization problem.

Suppose that covert transmitter Alice wishes to communicate information to covert receiver Bob on the same channel without being detected by a watchful adversary Willie. We consider two scenarios. In the first scenario, we assume that warden Willie cannot look at packet contents but rather can only observe packet timings, and Alice must send information by inserting her own packets into the channel. We show that the number of packets that Alice can covertly transmit to Bob is on the order of the square root of the number of packets that Jack transmits to Steve; conversely, if Alice transmits more than that, she will be detected by Willie with high probability. In the second scenario, we assume that Willie can look at packet contents but that Alice can communicate across an M/M/1 queue to Bob by altering the timings of the packets going from Jack to Steve. First, Alice builds a codebook, with each codeword consisting of a sequence of packet timings to be employed for conveying the information associated with that codeword. However, to successfully employ this codebook, Alice must always have a packet to send at the appropriate time. Hence, leveraging our result from the first scenario, we propose a construction where Alice covertly slows down the packet stream so as to buffer packets to use during a succeeding codeword transmission phase. Using this approach, Alice can covertly and reliably transmit O(λT) covert bits to Bob in time period T over an M/M/1 queue with service rate μ > e · λ.","PeriodicalId":112948,"journal":{"name":"2015 53rd Annual Allerton Conference on Communication, Control, and Computing (Allerton)","volume":"48 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117266873","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}
