Our contributions include introducing a centralized framework incorporating reactive and proactive strategies for resource management in mobile LiFi-only and LiFi-WiFi networks. This framework reacts to current network conditions and proactively anticipates the future, considering user positions, line-of-sight blockages, and channel quality. Recognizing the importance of long-term network performance, particularly for use cases such as video streaming, we tackle the challenge of optimal proactive resource allocation by formulating an optimization problem that integrates access point assignment and wireless resource allocation using the alpha-fairness objective over time. Our proactive strategy significantly outperforms the reactive resource allocation, ensuring 7.7% higher average rate and 63.3% higher minimum user rate for a 10-user LiFi-WiFi network. We employ sophisticated techniques, including a Branch and Bound-based Mixed-Integer solver and a low-complexity, Evolutionary Game Theory-based algorithm to achieve this. Lastly, we introduce a novel approach to simulate errors in predictive user position modeling to assess the robustness of our proactive allocation strategy against real-world uncertainties. The contributions of MobiFi advance the field of resource management in mobile LiFi-WiFi networks, enabling efficiency and reliability.","PeriodicalId":13423,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Network and Service Management","volume":"21 6","pages":"6597-6613"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2024-09-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10666849","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142187257","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, time-varying Service Level Agreements (SLAs) of slices and fast-changing network topologies in V2X scenarios may introduce new challenges for enabling efficient inter-slice resource provisioning to guarantee the Quality of Service (QoS) while avoiding both resource over-provisioning and under-provisioning. Moreover, the conventional centralized resource allocation schemes requiring global slice information may degrade the data privacy provided by dedicated resource provisioning. To address these challenges, in this paper, we propose a two-timescale resource management mechanism for providing diverse V2X slices with customized resources. In the long timescale, we propose a Proximal Policy Optimization-based multi-agent deep reinforcement learning algorithm for dynamically allocating bandwidth resources to different slices for guaranteeing their SLAs. Under the coordination of agents, each agent only observes its partial state space rather than the global information to adjust the resource requests, which can enhance the privacy protection. Moreover, an expert demonstration mechanism is proposed to guide the action policy for reducing the invalid action exploration and accelerating the convergence of agents. In the short-term time slot, with our proposed Cross Entropy and Successive Convex Approximation algorithm, each slice allocates its available physical resource blocks and optimizes its transmit power to meet the QoS. Simulation results show our proposed two-timescale resource allocation scheme for network slicing can achieve maximum 8.4% performance gains in terms of spectral efficiency while guaranteeing the QoS requirements of users compared to the baseline approaches.","PeriodicalId":13423,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Network and Service Management","volume":"21 6","pages":"6744-6758"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2024-09-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142187259","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Previous TE solutions mainly leverage heuristic algorithms to centrally optimize link weight setting or traffic splitting ratios under the static traffic demand. Note that as the network scale becomes larger and network management gains more complexity, it is notably that the centralized TE methods suffer from a high computation overhead and a long reaction time to optimize routing of flows when the network traffic demand dynamically fluctuates or network failures happen. To enable adaptive and efficient routing in distributed TE, we propose a Multi-agent Reinforcement Learning method CMRL that divides the routing optimization of a large network into multiple small-scale routing decision-making problems. To coordinate the multiple agents for achieving a global optimization goal in a hybrid SDN scenario, we construct a reasonable virtual environment to meet different routing constraints brought by legacy routers and SDN switches for training the routing agents. To train the routing agents for determining the local routing policies according to local network observations, we introduce the difference reward assignment mechanism for encouraging agents to cooperatively take optimal routing action. Extensive simulations conducted on the real traffic traces demonstrate the superiority of CMRL in improving TE performance, especially when traffic demands change or network failures happen.","PeriodicalId":13423,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Network and Service Management","volume":"21 6","pages":"6759-6769"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2024-09-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142187261","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, UAVs consume large amounts of power to collect data from multiple sensor nodes (SNs). This can limit their flight time and transmission efficiency, resulting in delays and low information freshness. In this paper, we present a multi-access edge computing (MEC)-integrated UAV-assisted wireless sensor network (WSN) with a laser technology-based energy harvesting (EH) system that makes the UAV act as a flying energy charger to address these issues. This work aims to minimize the age of information (AoI) and improve energy efficiency by jointly optimizing the UAV trajectories, EH, task scheduling, and data offloading. The joint optimization problem is formulated as a Markov decision process (MDP) and then transformed into a stochastic game model to handle the complexity and dynamics of the environment. We adopt a multi-agent deep Q-network (MADQN) algorithm to solve the formulated optimization problem. With the MADQN algorithm, UAVs can determine the best data collection and EH decisions to minimize their energy consumption and efficiently collect data from multiple SNs, leading to reduced AoI and improved energy efficiency. Compared to the benchmark algorithms such as deep deterministic policy gradient (DDPG), Dueling DQN, asynchronous advantage actor-critic (A3C) and Greedy, the MADQN algorithm has a lower average AoI and improves energy efficiency by 95.5%, 89.9%, 78.02% and 65.52% respectively.","PeriodicalId":13423,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Network and Service Management","volume":"21 6","pages":"6527-6541"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2024-09-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142187263","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Considering the busy-hour Internet traffic with daily human mobility, the tidal pattern of traffic flow occurs in metro optical networks, expressing both temporal and spatial features. To achieve high QoS of slices, this paper proposes a node-oriented slice reconfiguration (NoSR) scheme to reduce the penalty of slices, where a gradient-based priority strategy is designed to reduce the penalties of slices overall penalties in reconfiguration.

Multiple drones are deployed to communicate and coordinate sensing and data transfer in the Internet of Drones (IoD) network. Traditionally, multi-hop routing is employed for communication over long distances to increase the network’s lifetime. However, multi-hop routing over large-scale networks leads to energy imbalance and higher data latency. Motivated by this, in this paper, a novel framework of energy-efficient and latency-aware data routing is proposed for Small-World (SW)-IoD networks. We started with an optimization problem formulation in terms of network delay, energy consumption, and reliability. Then, the formulated mixed integer problem is solved by introducing the Small-World Characters (SWC) into the conventional IoD network to form the SW-IoD network. Here, the proposed framework introduces SWC by removing a few existing edges with the least edge weight from the traditional network and introducing the same number of long-range edges with the highest edge weight. We present the simulation results corresponding to packet delivery ratio, network lifetime, and network delay for the performance comparison of the proposed framework with state-of-the-art approaches such as the conventional SWC method, LEACH, Modified LEACH, Canonical Particle Multi-Swarm (PMS) method, and conventional shortest path routing algorithm. We also analyze the effect of the location of the ground control station, the velocity of the drones, and the different heights of layers on the performance of the proposed framework. Through experiments, the superiority of the proposed method is proven to be better when compared to other methods.

Considering time-sensitive property of transmission and privacy risks of directly uploads in mobile network, we deploy edge computing to locally run networks for analysis, thus saving time to offload computing request and enhancing privacy by encrypting original data. Inspired by remarkable relationship representation of graphs, we build Graph Neural Network (GNN) in cloud to map physical mobile systems to virtual entities with DT, thus performing semantic inferences in cloud with few samples uploaded by edges. Occasionally, node features in GNN could converge to similar, non-discriminative embeddings, causing catastrophic unstable phenomena. An iterative reweight and drop structure (IRDS) is thus constructed in cloud, which nonetheless contributes stability with respect to edge uncertainty. As part of IRDS, a drop Edge&Node scheme is proposed to randomly remove certain nodes and edges, which not only enhances distinguished capability of graph neighbor patterns, but also offers data encryption with random strategy.
