|abstract = Long-range wide-area network (LoRaWAN) is one of the most promising IoT technologies that are widely adopted in low-power wide-area networks (LPWANs). LoRaWAN faces scalability issues due to a large number of nodes connected to the same gateway and sharing the same channel. Therefore, LoRa networks seek to achieve two main objectives: 1) successful delivery rate and 2) efficient energy consumption. This article proposes a novel game-theoretic framework for LoRaWAN named best equal LoRa (BE-LoRa), to jointly optimize the packet delivery ratio and the energy efficiency (bit/Joule). The utility function of the LoRa node is defined as the ratio of the throughput to the transmit power. LoRa nodes act as rational users (players) which seek to maximize their utility. The aim of the BE-LoRa algorithm is to maximize the utility of LoRa nodes while maintaining the same signal-to-interference-and-noise-ratio (SINR) for each spreading factor (SF). The power allocation algorithm is implemented at the network server, which leads to an optimum SINR, SFs, and transmission power settings of all nodes. Numerical and simulation results show that the proposed BE-LoRa power allocation algorithm has a significant improvement in the packet delivery ratio and energy efficiency as compared to the adaptive data rate (ADR) algorithm of legacy LoRaWAN. For instance, in very dense networks (624 nodes), BE-LoRa can improve the delivery ratio by 17.44% and reduce power consumed by 46% compared to LoRaWAN ADR.
|abstract=LoRa has emerged as one of the promising long-range and low-power wireless communication technologies for Internet of Things (IoT). With the massive deployment of LoRa networks, the ability to perform Firmware Update Over-The-Air (FUOTA) is becoming a necessity for unattended LoRa devices. LoRa Alliance has recently dedicated the specification for FUOTA, but the existing solution has several drawbacks, such as low energy efficiency, poor transmission reliability, and biased multicast grouping. In this paper, we propose a novel energy-efficient, reliable, and beamforming-assisted FUOTA system for LoRa networks named FLoRa, which is featured with several techniques, including delta scripting, channel coding, and beamforming. In particular, we first propose a novel joint differencing and compression algorithm to generate the delta script for processing gain, which unlocks the potential of incremental FUOTA in LoRa networks. Afterward, we design a concatenated channel coding scheme to enable reliable transmission against dynamic link quality. The proposed scheme uses a rateless code as outer code and an error detection code as inner code to achieve coding gain. Finally, we design a beamforming strategy to avoid biased multicast and compromised throughput for power gain. Experimental results on a 20-node testbed demonstrate that FLoRa improves network transmission reliability by up to 1.51 × and energy efficiency by up to 2.65 × compared with the existing solution in LoRaWAN.

|abstract = Real-time on-device object detection for video analytics fails to meet the accuracy requirement due to limited resources of mobile devices while offloading object detection inference to edges is time-consuming due to the transference of video data over edge networks. Based on the system with both ondevice object tracking and edge-assisted analysis, we formulate a non linear time-coupled program over time, maximizing the overall accuracy of object detection by deciding the frequency of edge-assisted inference, under the consideration of both dynamic edge networks and the constrained detection latency. We then design a learning-based online algorithm to adjust the threshold for triggering edge-assisted inference on the fly in terms of the object tracking results, which essentially controls the deviation of on-device tracking between two consecutive frames in the video, by only taking previously observable inputs. We rigorously prove that our approach only incurs sub-linear dynamic regret for the optimality objective. At last, we implement our proposed online schema, and extensive testbed results with real-world traces confirm the empirical superiority over alternative algorithms, in terms of up to 36% improvement on detection accuracy with ensured detection latency.
|abstract=As a promising infrastructure, edge storage systems have drawn many attempts to efficiently distribute and share data among edge servers. However, it remains open to meeting the increasing demand for similarity retrieval across servers. The intrinsic reason is that the existing solutions can only return an exact data match for a query while more general edge applications require the data similar to a query input from any server. To fill this gap, this paper pioneers a new paradigm to support high-dimensional similarity search at network edges. Specifically, we propose Prophet, the first known architecture for similarity data indexing. We first divide the feature space of data into plenty of subareas, then project both subareas and edge servers into a virtual plane where the distances between any two points can reflect not only data similarity but also network latency. When any edge server submits a request for data insert, delete, or query, it computes the data feature and the virtual coordinates; then iteratively forwards the request through greedy routing based on the forwarding tables and the virtual coordinates. By Prophet, similar high-dimensional features would be stored by a common server or several nearby servers. Compared with distributed hash tables in P2P networks, Prophet requires logarithmic servers to access for a data request and reduces the network latency from the logarithmic to the constant level of the server number. Experimental results indicate that Prophet achieves comparable retrieval accuracy and shortens the query latency by 55%~70% compared with centralized schemes.

    Abstract: As a promising infrastructure, edge storage systems have drawn many attempts to efficiently distribute and share data among edge servers. However, it remains open to meeting the increasing demand for similarity retrieval across servers. The intrinsic reason is that the existing solutions can only return an exact data match for a query while more general edge applications require the data similar to a query input from any server. To fill this gap, this paper pioneers a new paradigm to support high-dimensional similarity search at network edges.
