|abstract =Low Power Wide Area Networks (LPWANs) have been shown promising in connecting large-scale low-cost devices with low-power long-distance communication. However, existing LPWANs cannot work well for real deployments due to se�vere packet collisions. We propose OrthoRa, a new technology which significantly improves the concurrency for low-power long�distance LPWAN transmission. The key of OrthoRa is a novel design, Orthogonal Scatter Chirp Spreading Spectrum (OSCSS), which enables orthogonal packet transmissions while providing low SNR communication in LPWANs. Different nodes can send packets encoded with different orthogonal scatter chirps, and the receiver can decode collided packets from different nodes. We theoretically prove that OrthoRa provides very high concurrency for low SNR communication under different scenarios. For real networks, we address practical challenges of multiple-packet detection for collided packets, scatter chirp identification for decoding each packet and accurate packet synchronization with Carrier Frequency Offset. We implement OrthoRa on HackRF One and extensively evaluate its performance. The evaluation results show that OrthoRa improves the network throughput and concurrency by 50⇥ compared with LoRa.
|abstract = LoRa technology promises to enable Internet of Things applications over large geographical areas. However, its performance is often hampered by poor channel quality in urban environments, where blockage and multipath effects are prevalent. Our study uncovers that a slight shift in the position or attitude of the receiving antenna can substantially improve the received signal quality. This phenomenon can be attributed to the rich multipath characteristics of wireless signal propagation in urban environments, wherein even small antenna movement can alter the dominant signal path or reduce the polarization angular difference between transceivers. Leveraging these key observations, we propose and implement MoLoRa, an intelligent mobile antenna system designed to enhance LoRa packet reception. At its core, MoLoRa represents the position and attitude of an antenna as a state and employs a statistical optimization method to search for states that offer optimal signal quality efficiently. Through extensive evaluation, we demonstrate that MoLoRa achieves a maximum Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) gain of 13 dB in a few attempts, enabling formerly problematic blind spots to reconnect and strengthening links for other nodes.

|abstract = Mobile edge computing is a promising computing paradigm enabling mobile devices to offload computation-intensive tasks to nearby edge servers. However, within small-cell networks, the user mobilities can result in uneven spatio-temporal loads, which have not been well studied by considering adaptive load balancing, thus limiting the system performance. Motivated by the data analytics and observations on a real-world user association dataset in a large-scale WiFi system, in this paper, we investigate the mobility-aware online task offloading problem with adaptive load balancing to minimize the total computation costs. However, the problem is intractable directly without prior knowledge of future user mobility behaviors and spatio-temporal computation loads of edge servers. To tackle this challenge, we transform and decompose the original task offloading optimization problem into two sub-problems, i.e., task offloading control ( ToC ) and server grouping ( SeG ). Then, we devise an online control scheme, named MOTO (i.e., M obility-aware O nline T ask O ffloading), which consists of two components, i.e., Long Short Term Memory based algorithm and Dueling Double DQN based algorithm, to efficiently solve the ToC and SeG sub-problems, respectively. Extensive trace-driven experiments are carried out and the results demonstrate the effectiveness of MOTO in reducing computational costs of mobile devices and achieving load balancing when compared to the state-of-the-art benchmarks.
|abstract =Large language models (LLMs) achieve superior performance in generative tasks. However, due to the natural gap between language model generation and structured information extraction in three dimensions: task type, output format, and modeling granularity, they often fall short in structured information extraction, a crucial capability for effective data utilization on the web. In this paper, we define the generation process of the language model as the controllable state transition, aligning the generation and extraction processes to ensure the integrity of the output structure and adapt to the goals of the information extraction task. Furthermore, we propose the Structure2Text decider to help the language model understand the fine-grained extraction information, which converts the structured output into natural language and makes state decisions, thereby focusing on the task-specific information kernels, and alleviating language model hallucinations and incorrect content generation. We conduct extensive experiments and detailed analyses on myriad information extraction tasks, including named entity recognition, relation extraction, and event argument extraction. Our method not only achieves significant performance improvements but also considerably enhances the model's capability to generate precise and relevant content, making the extracted content easy to parse.

|abstract = Edge computing capabilities in 5G wireless networks promise to benefit mobile users: computing tasks can be offloaded from user devices to nearby edge servers, reducing users’ experienced latencies. Few works have addressed how this offloading should handle long-term user mobility: as devices move, they will need to offload to different edge servers, which may require migrating data or state information from one edge server to another. In this paper, we introduce MoDEMS, a system model and architecture that provides a rigorous theoretical framework and studies the challenges of such migrations to minimize the service provider cost and user latency. We show that this cost minimization problem can be expressed as an integer linear programming problem, which is hard to solve due to resource constraints at the servers and unknown user mobility patterns. We show that finding the optimal migration plan is in general NP-hard, and we propose alternative heuristic solution algorithms that perform well in both theory and practice. We finally validate our results with real user mobility traces, ns-3 simulations, and an LTE testbed experiment. Migrations reduce the latency experienced by users of edge applications by 33% compared to previously proposed migration approaches.
