|abstract = Recently, smart roadside infrastructure (SRI) has demonstrated the potential of achieving fully autonomous driving systems. To explore the potential of infrastructure-assisted autonomous driving, this paper presents the design and deployment of Soar, the first end-to-end SRI system specifically designed to support autonomous driving systems. Soar consists of both software and hardware components carefully designed to overcome various system and physical challenges. Soar can leverage the existing operational infrastructure like street lampposts for a lower barrier of adoption. Soar adopts a new communication architecture that comprises a bi-directional multi-hop I2I network and a downlink I2V broadcast service, which are designed based on off-the-shelf 802.11ac interfaces in an integrated manner. Soar also features a hierarchical DL task management framework to achieve desirable load balancing among nodes and enable them to collaborate efficiently to run multiple data-intensive autonomous driving applications. We deployed a total of 18 Soar nodes on existing lampposts on campus, which have been operational for over two years. Our real-world evaluation shows that Soar can support a diverse set of autonomous driving applications and achieve desirable real-time performance and high communication reliability. Our findings and experiences in this work offer key insights into the development and deployment of next-generation smart roadside infrastructure and autonomous driving systems.
|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 = GPUs are increasingly utilized for running DNN tasks on emerging mobile edge devices. Beyond accelerating single task inference, their value is also particularly apparent in efficiently executing multiple DNN tasks, which often have strict latency requirements in applications. Preemption is the main technology to ensure multitasking timeliness, but mobile edges primarily offer two priorities for task queues, and existing methods thus achieve only coarse-grained preemption by categorizing DNNs into real-time and best-effort, permitting a real-time task to preempt best-effort ones. However, the efficacy diminishes significantly when other real-time tasks run concurrently, but this is already common in mobile edge applications. Due to different hardware characteristics, solutions from other platforms are unsuitable. For instance, GPUs on traditional mobile devices primarily assist CPU processing and lack special preemption support, mainly following FIFO in GPU scheduling. Clouds handle concurrent task execution, but focus on allocating one or more GPUs per complex model, whereas on mobile edges, DNNs mainly vie for one GPU. This paper introduces Pantheon, designed to offer fine-grained preemption, enabling real-time tasks to preempt each other and best-effort tasks. Our key observation is that the two-tier GPU stream priorities, while underexplored, are sufficient. Efficient preemption can be realized through software design by innovative scheduling and novel exploitation of the nested redundancy principle for DNN models. Evaluation on a diverse set of DNNs shows substantial improvements in deadline miss rate and accuracy of Pantheon over state-of-the-art methods.

|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.
