In-Network Artificial Computing Enhanced Light Model-Switching for Emergency Communications Networks
Yuehan Li, Zhiyuan Ren, Tao Zhang +1
Emergency communications networks require in-network intelligence for timely traffic handling under dynamic demands and runtime constraints. In these environments, packets may need…
Utility-Aware Progressive Inference over UDP Packet Blocks for Emergency Communications
Jiayue Wang, Zhiyuan Ren, Tao Zhang +1
Emergency communications increasingly rely on remote visual inference for timely hazard detection under stringent bandwidth and latency constraints. However, conventional UDP-based…
Spectral Graph Analysis for Predicting QoE Fairness Sensitivity in Wireless Communication Networks
Xinke Jian, Zhiyuan Ren, Wenchi Cheng
The evaluation of Quality of Experience (QoE) fairness depends not only on its current state but, more critically, on its sensitivity to changes in Service Level Agreement (SLA) pa…
A Copula-based Semantics-Structure Minimization Framework for QoS Guaranteed Wireless Communications
Xinke Jian, Zhiyuan Ren, Wenchi Cheng
Current empirically driven research on semantic communication lacks a unified theoretical foundation, preventing quantifiable Quality of Service guarantees, particularly for transm…
System Relaxation for Interpretable and Adaptive Network Control
Zhiyuan Ren, Zhiliang Shuai, Wenchi Cheng
Prevailing network control strategies, which rely on static shortest-path logic, suffer from catastrophic "stress concentration" on critical nodes. This paper introduces the System…
The Landscape of Fairness: An Axiomatic and Predictive Framework for Network QoE Sensitivity
Zhiyuan Ren, Xinke Jian, Wenchi Cheng +1
Evaluating network-wide fairness is challenging because it is not a static property but one highly sensitive to Service Level Agreement (SLA) parameters. This paper introduces a co…
A Uniqueness Theorem for Distributed Computation under Physical Constraint
Zhiyuan Ren, Mingxuan Lu, Wenchi Cheng
Foundational models of computation often abstract away physical hardware limitations. However, in extreme environments like In-Network Computing (INC), these limitations become inv…
Profiling Multi-Level Operator Costs for Bottleneck Diagnosis in High-Speed Data Planes
Zhiyuan Ren, Yutao Liu, Wenchi Cheng +1
This paper proposes a saturation throughput delta-based methodology to precisely measure operator costs in high-speed data planes without intrusive instrumentation. The approach ca…
Decoupling Structural Heterogeneity from Functional Fairness in Complex Networks: A Theoretical Framework based on the Imbalance Metric
Zhiyuan Ren, Zhiliang Shuai, Wenchi Cheng +1
Performance evaluation of complex networks has traditionally focused on structural integrity or average transmission efficiency, perspectives that often overlook the dimension of f…
Collaborative Computing Strategy Based SINS Prediction for Emergency UAVs Network
Bing Li, Haoming Guo, Zhiyuan Ren +3
In emergency scenarios, the dynamic and harsh conditions necessitate timely trajectory adjustments for drones, leading to highly dynamic network topologies and potential task failu…
Finite State Machines-Based Path-Following Collaborative Computing Strategy for Emergency UAV Swarms
Jialin Hu, Zhiyuan Ren, Wenchi Cheng
Offloading services to UAV swarms for delay-sensitive tasks in Emergency UAV Networks (EUN) can greatly enhance rescue efficiency. Most task-offloading strategies assumed that UAVs…
