|abstract = Mobile crowd sensing (MCS) is a popular sensing paradigm that leverages the power of massive mobile workers to perform various location-based sensing tasks. To assign workers with suitable tasks, recent research works investigated mobility prediction methods based on probabilistic and statistical models to estimate the worker’s moving behavior, based on which the allocation algorithm is designed to match workers with tasks such that workers do not need to deviate from their daily routes and tasks can be completed as many as possible. In this paper, we propose a new multi-task allocation method based on mobility prediction, which differs from the existing works by (1) making use of workers’ historical trajectories more comprehensively by using the fuzzy logic system to obtain more accurate mobility prediction and (2) designing a global heuristic searching algorithm to optimize the overall task completion rate based on the mobility prediction result, which jointly considers workers’ and tasks’ spatiotemporal features. We evaluate the proposed prediction method and task allocation algorithm using two real-world datasets. The experimental results validate the effectiveness of the proposed methods compared against baselines.
|abstract = Visible light communications (VLC) is a good candidate technology for the 6th generation (6G) wireless communications. Red, green, and blue (RGB) light-emitting diodes (LEDs) based VLC has become an important research branch due to its low price and high reliability. However, the saturation of photodiode (PD) caused by the ambient background light may seriously degrade the bit error rate (BER) performance of an RGB-VLC system's three spatially uncoupled information streams (i.e., red, green, and blue LEDs can transmit different data packets simultaneously) in practical applications. To mitigate the ambient light interference in point-to-point RGB-VLC systems, we propose, PNC-VLC, a network-coded scheme that uses two LEDs with the same color at the transmitter to transmit two different data streams and we make use of the naturally overlapped signals at the receiver to formulate physical-layer network coding (PNC). The adaptivity of PNC-VLC could effectively improve the BER degradation problem caused by the saturation of PD under the influence of ambient light. We conducted simulations based on the parameters of commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) products to prove the superiority of the PNC-VLC under the influence of four typical illuminants. Simulation results show that the PNC-VLC system can maintain a better and more stable system BER performance under different ambient background light conditions. Remarkably, with 2/3 throughput efficiency, PNC-VLC can bring 133.3% gain to the BER performance when compared with RGB-VLC under the Illuminant A interference model, making it a good option for VLC applications with unpredictable ambient background interferences.

|abstract = Mobile edge computing (MEC), as a key ingredient of the 5G ecosystem, is envisioned to support demanding applications with stringent latency requirements. The basic idea is to deploy servers close to end-users, e.g., on the network edge-side instead of the remote cloud. While conceptually reasonable, we find that the operational 5G is not coordinated with MEC and thus suffers from intolerable long response latency. In this work, we propose Tutti, which couples 5G RAN and MEC at the user space to assure the performance of latency-critical video analytics. To enable such capacity, Tutti precisely customizes the application service demand by fusing instantaneous wireless dynamics from the 5G RAN and application-layer content changes from edge servers. Tutti then enforces a deadline-sensitive resource provision for meeting the application service demand by real-time interaction between 5G RAN and edge servers in a lightweight and standard-compatible way. We prototype and evaluate Tutti on a software-defined platform, which shows that Tutti reduces the response latency by an average of 61.69% compared with the existing 5G MEC system, as well as negligible interaction costs.

|abstract = On-device deep neural network (DNN) training holds the potential to enable a rich set of privacy-aware and infrastructure-independent personalized mobile applications. However, despite advancements in mobile hardware, locally training a complex DNN is still a nontrivial task given its resource demands. In this work, we show that the limited memory resources on mobile devices are the main constraint and propose Sage as a framework for efficiently optimizing memory resources for on-device DNN training. Specifically, Sage configures a flexible computation graph for DNN gradient evaluation and reduces the memory footprint of the graph using operator- and graph-level optimizations. In run-time, Sage employs a hybrid of gradient checkpointing and micro-batching techniques to dynamically adjust its memory use to the available system memory budget. Using implementation on off-the-shelf smartphones, we show that Sage enables local training of complex DNN models by reducing memory use by more than 20-fold compared to a baseline approach. We also show that Sage successfully adapts to run-time memory budget variations, and evaluate its energy consumption to show Sage's practical applicability.

|abstract = We characterize production workloads of serverless DAGs at a major cloud provider. Our analysis highlights two major factors that limit performance: (a) lack of efficient communication methods between the serverless functions in the DAG, and (b) stragglers when a DAG stage invokes a set of parallel functions that must complete before starting the next DAG stage. To address these limitations, we propose WISEFUSE, an automated approach to generate an optimized execution plan for serverless DAGs for a user-specified latency objective or budget. We introduce three optimizations: (1) Fusion combines in-series functions together in a single VM to reduce the communication overhead between cascaded functions. (2) Bundling executes a group of parallel invocations of a function in one VM to improve resource sharing among the parallel workers to reduce skew. (3) Resource Allocation assigns the right VM size to each function or function bundle in the DAG to reduce the E2E latency and cost. We implement WISEFUSE to evaluate it experimentally using three popular serverless applications with different DAG structures, memory footprints, and intermediate data sizes. Compared to competing approaches and other alternatives, WISEFUSE shows significant improvements in E2E latency and cost. Specifically, for a machine learning pipeline, WISEFUSE achieves P95 latency that is 67% lower than Photons, 39% lower than Faastlane, and 90% lower than SONIC without increasing the cost.
