However,\u0000most of them are used to transport people or goods. What if they also carry\u0000resources and capabilities for sensing, communications, computing, storage, and\u0000intelligence (SCCSI)? We will have a web of sensors to monitor the city, a\u0000network of powerful communicators to transport data around, a grid of computing\u0000power to conduct data analytics and machine learning (ML), a network of\u0000distributed storage to buffer/cache data/job for optimization, and a set of\u0000movable AI/ML toolboxes made available for specialized smart applications. This\u0000perspective article presents how to leverage SCCSI-empowered vehicles to design\u0000such a service network, simply called SCCSI network, to help build a smart city\u0000with a cost-effective and sustainable solution. It showcases how\u0000multi-dimensional technologies, namely, sensing, communications, computing,\u0000storage, and intelligence, converge to a unifying technology to solve grand\u0000challenges for resource demands from emerging large-scale applications. Thus,\u0000with SCCSI-empowered vehicles on the ground, over the air, and on the sea,\u0000SCCSI network can make resources and capabilities on the move, practically\u0000pushing SCCSI services to the edge!

Since Kubernetes does not natively provide tools to abstract\u0000inter-cluster communications at the application level, inter-cluster\u0000communication in edge computing is becoming increasingly critical to the\u0000application performance. In this paper, we evaluate for the first time the\u0000impact of inter-cluster communication on edge computing performance by using\u0000three prominent, open source inter-cluster communication projects and tools,\u0000i.e., Submariner, ClusterLink and Skupper. We develop a fully open-source\u0000testbed that integrates these tools in a modular fashion, and experimentally\u0000benchmark sample applications, including the ML class of applications, on their\u0000performance running in the multi-cluster edge computing system under varying\u0000networking conditions. We experimentally analyze two classes of envisioned\u0000mobile applications, i.e., a) industrial automation, b) vehicle decision drive\u0000assist. Our results show that Submariner performs best out of the three tools\u0000in scenarios with small payloads, regardless of the underlying networking\u0000conditions or transmission direction between clusters. When sending larger data\u0000to a service, ClusterLink outperforms Submariner once the inter-node networking\u0000conditions deteriorate, which may be the case in highly mobile scenarios in\u0000edge computing. Finally, Skupper significantly outperforms others in a variety\u0000of scenarios with larger payloads.","PeriodicalId":501280,"journal":{"name":"arXiv - CS - Networking and Internet Architecture","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142260233","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}

Central to this\u0000transformation is Data Center Networking (DCN), which not only provides the\u0000computational power necessary for GenAI training and inference but also\u0000delivers GenAI-driven services to users. This article examines an interplay\u0000between GenAI and DCNs, highlighting their symbiotic relationship and mutual\u0000advancements. We begin by reviewing current challenges within DCNs and discuss\u0000how GenAI contributes to enhancing DCN capabilities through innovations, such\u0000as data augmentation, process automation, and domain transfer. We then focus on\u0000analyzing the distinctive characteristics of GenAI workloads on DCNs, gaining\u0000insights that catalyze the evolution of DCNs to more effectively support GenAI\u0000and LLMs. Moreover, to illustrate the seamless integration of GenAI with DCNs,\u0000we present a case study on full-lifecycle DCN digital twins. In this study, we\u0000employ LLMs equipped with Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) to formulate\u0000optimization problems for DCNs and adopt Diffusion-Deep Reinforcement Learning\u0000(DRL) for optimizing the RAG knowledge placement strategy. This approach not\u0000only demonstrates the application of advanced GenAI methods within DCNs but\u0000also positions the digital twin as a pivotal GenAI service operating on DCNs.\u0000We anticipate that this article can promote further research into enhancing the\u0000virtuous interaction between GenAI and DCNs.","PeriodicalId":501280,"journal":{"name":"arXiv - CS - Networking and Internet Architecture","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142260230","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}

Existing research mostly assumes a symmetric environment, where the\u0000routing costs in opposite directions between two locations are considered\u0000identical. However, various factors such as terrain restrictions and wind or\u0000water flows may invalidate the routing-symmetric assumption in practical\u0000environments, thereby significantly limiting the performance of these solutions\u0000in routing-asymmetric WRSNs (RA-WRSNs). To address the routing-asymmetric\u0000challenges in mobile charge scheduling for WRSNs, this paper systematically\u0000investigates the underlying Asymmetric Directional Mobile Charger (DMC) Charge\u0000Scheduling (ADMCCS) problem, aiming to minimize energy loss while satisfying\u0000the charging demands of the network nodes. The DMC model is assumed because its\u0000results can be easily applied to the specialized case of an Omnidirectional\u0000Mobile Charger (OMC). To solve the ADMCCS problem, we propose a four-step\u0000framework. First, a minimum-size efficient charging position set is selected\u0000using our designed K-means-based Charging Position Generation (KCPG) algorithm,\u0000addressing the challenge of the unlimited charging position selection space.\u0000Next, minimum-size functional-equivalent direction sets at these positions are\u0000determined using an optimal algorithm, tackling the challenge of infinite\u0000charging directions. Subsequently, the optimal energy transmission time lengths\u0000for all directions at the positions are obtained by formulating and solving a\u0000Nonlinear Program (NLP) problem. Finally, the Lin-Kernighan Heuristic (LKH)\u0000algorithm for the Asymmetric Traveling Salesman Problem is adapted to obtain a\u0000highly probable optimal loop tour, addressing the routing-asymmetric challenge.","PeriodicalId":501280,"journal":{"name":"arXiv - CS - Networking and Internet Architecture","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142183980","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}
