Supporting Effective Caching in a Wide-Area Distributed Location Service.
Abstract. Globe is a wide-area distributed system that supports mobile objects. To track and locate objects, we use a worldwide distributed location service, implemented as a search tree. An object registers its current position by storing its address in a nearby leaf node of the tree. This knowledge propagates up to the top of the tree, so every object can be found from the root. Remote objects can cache the location of an object. However, if the object moves, the cache entry is no longer valid. In this paper, we show how caching can be made to work effectively even in the presence of mobile objects. vrije Universitei
Federated Learning in Intelligent Transportation Systems: Recent Applications and Open Problems
Intelligent transportation systems (ITSs) have been fueled by the rapid
development of communication technologies, sensor technologies, and the
Internet of Things (IoT). Nonetheless, due to the dynamic characteristics of
the vehicle networks, it is rather challenging to make timely and accurate
decisions of vehicle behaviors. Moreover, in the presence of mobile wireless
communications, the privacy and security of vehicle information are at constant
risk. In this context, a new paradigm is urgently needed for various
applications in dynamic vehicle environments. As a distributed machine learning
technology, federated learning (FL) has received extensive attention due to its
outstanding privacy protection properties and easy scalability. We conduct a
comprehensive survey of the latest developments in FL for ITS. Specifically, we
initially research the prevalent challenges in ITS and elucidate the
motivations for applying FL from various perspectives. Subsequently, we review
existing deployments of FL in ITS across various scenarios, and discuss
specific potential issues in object recognition, traffic management, and
service providing scenarios. Furthermore, we conduct a further analysis of the
new challenges introduced by FL deployment and the inherent limitations that FL
alone cannot fully address, including uneven data distribution, limited storage
and computing power, and potential privacy and security concerns. We then
examine the existing collaborative technologies that can help mitigate these
challenges. Lastly, we discuss the open challenges that remain to be addressed
in applying FL in ITS and propose several future research directions
Edge Intelligence : Empowering Intelligence to the Edge of Network
Edge intelligence refers to a set of connected systems and devices for data collection, caching, processing, and analysis proximity to where data are captured based on artificial intelligence. Edge intelligence aims at enhancing data processing and protects the privacy and security of the data and users. Although recently emerged, spanning the period from 2011 to now, this field of research has shown explosive growth over the past five years. In this article, we present a thorough and comprehensive survey of the literature surrounding edge intelligence. We first identify four fundamental components of edge intelligence, i.e., edge caching, edge training, edge inference, and edge offloading based on theoretical and practical results pertaining to proposed and deployed systems. We then aim for a systematic classification of the state of the solutions by examining research results and observations for each of the four components and present a taxonomy that includes practical problems, adopted techniques, and application goals. For each category, we elaborate, compare, and analyze the literature from the perspectives of adopted techniques, objectives, performance, advantages and drawbacks, and so on. This article provides a comprehensive survey of edge intelligence and its application areas. In addition, we summarize the development of the emerging research fields and the current state of the art and discuss the important open issues and possible theoretical and technical directions.Peer reviewe
Thirty Years of Machine Learning: The Road to Pareto-Optimal Wireless Networks
Future wireless networks have a substantial potential in terms of supporting
a broad range of complex compelling applications both in military and civilian
fields, where the users are able to enjoy high-rate, low-latency, low-cost and
reliable information services. Achieving this ambitious goal requires new radio
techniques for adaptive learning and intelligent decision making because of the
complex heterogeneous nature of the network structures and wireless services.
Machine learning (ML) algorithms have great success in supporting big data
analytics, efficient parameter estimation and interactive decision making.
Hence, in this article, we review the thirty-year history of ML by elaborating
on supervised learning, unsupervised learning, reinforcement learning and deep
learning. Furthermore, we investigate their employment in the compelling
applications of wireless networks, including heterogeneous networks (HetNets),
cognitive radios (CR), Internet of things (IoT), machine to machine networks
(M2M), and so on. This article aims for assisting the readers in clarifying the
motivation and methodology of the various ML algorithms, so as to invoke them
for hitherto unexplored services as well as scenarios of future wireless
networks.Comment: 46 pages, 22 fig
