|abstract = Barcodes and NFC have become the de facto standards in the field of automatic identification and data capture. These standards have been widely adopted for many applications, such as mobile payments, advertisements, social sharing, admission control, and so on. Recently, considerable demands require the integration of these two codes (barcode and NFC code) into a single tag for the functional complementation. To achieve the goal of "one tag, two codes" (OTTC), this work proposes CoilCode, which takes advantage of the printed electronics to fuse an NFC coil antenna into a QR code on a single layer. The proposed code could be identified by cameras and NFC readers. With the use of the conductive inks, QR code and NFC code have become an essential part of each other: the modules of the QR code facilitate the NFC chip in harvesting energy from the magnetic field, while the NFC antenna itself represents bits of the QR code. Compared to the prior dual-layer OTTC, CoilCode is more compact, cost-effective, flimsy, flexible, and environment-friendly, and also reduces the fabrication complexity considerably. We prototyped hundreds of CoilCodes and conducted comprehensive evaluations (across 4 models of NFC chips and 8 kinds of NFC readers under 13 different system configurations). CoilCode demonstrates high-quality identification results for QR code and NFC functions on a wide range of inputs and under different distortion effects.
|abstract = With the wide adoption of AI applications, there is a pressing need of enabling real-time neural network (NN) inference on small embedded devices, but deploying NNs and achieving high performance of NN inference on these small devices is challenging due to their extremely weak capabilities. Although NN partitioning and offloading can contribute to such deployment, they are incapable of minimizing the local costs at embedded devices. Instead, we suggest to address this challenge via agile NN offloading, which migrates the required computations in NN offloading from online inference to offline learning. In this paper, we present AgileNN, a new NN offloading technique that achieves real-time NN inference on weak embedded devices by leveraging eXplainable AI techniques, so as to explicitly enforce feature sparsity during the training phase and minimize the online computation and communication costs. Experiment results show that AgileNN's inference latency is >6X lower than the existing schemes, ensuring that sensory data on embedded devices can be timely consumed. It also reduces the local device's resource consumption by >8X, without impairing the inference accuracy.

|abstract = Recently, increasing investments in satellite-related technologies make the low earth orbit (LEO) satellite constellation a strong complement to terrestrial networks. To mitigate the limitations of the traditional satellite constellation “bent-pipe” architecture, satellite edge computing (SEC) has been proposed by placing computing resources at the LEO satellite constellation. Most existing works focus on space-air-ground integrated network architecture and SEC computing framework. Beyond these works, we are the first to investigate how to efficiently deploy services on the SEC nodes to realize robustness aware service coverage with constrained resources. Facing the challenges of spatial-temporal system dynamics and service coverage-robustness conflict, we propose a novel online service placement algorithm with a theoretical performance guarantee by leveraging Lyapunov optimization and Gibbs sampling. Extensive simulation results show that our algorithm can improve the service coverage by 4.3× compared with the baseline.
|abstract = Mobile robot-assisted book inventory such as book identification and book order detection has become increasingly popular in smart library, replacing the manual book inventory which is time-consuming and error-prone. The existing systems are either computer vision (CV)-based or RFID-based, however several limitations are inevitable. CV-based systems may not be able to identify books effectively due to low accuracy of detecting texts on book spine. RFID tags attached to books can be used to identify a book uniquely. However, in high tag density scenarios such as library, tag coupling effects of adjacent tags may seriously affect the accuracy of tag reading. To overcome these limitations, this paper presents a novel RFID and CV fusion system for Book Inventory using mobile robot (RC-BI). RFID and CV are first used individually to obtain book order, then the information will be fused by the sequence based matching algorithm to remove ambiguity and improve overall accuracy. Specifically, we address three technical challenges. We design a deep neural network (DNN) model with multiple inputs and mixed data to filter out interference of RFID tags on other tiers, and propose a video information extracting schema to extract book spine information accurately, and use strong link to align and match RFID- and CV-based timestamp vs. book-name sequences to avoid errors during fusion. Extensive experiments indicate that our system achieves an average accuracy of 98.4% for tier filtering and an average accuracy of 98.9% for book order, significantly outperforming the state-of-the-arts.

|abstract = The edge-cloud system has the potential to combine the advantages of heterogeneous devices and truly realize ubiquitous computing. However, for service providers to guarantee the Service-Level-Agreement (SLA) priorities, the complex networked environment brings inherent challenges such as multi-resource heterogeneity, resource competition, and networked system dynamics. In this paper, we design a framework for the edge-cloud system, namely EdgeMatrix, to maximize the throughput while guaranteeing various SLA priorities. First, EdgeMatrix introduces Networked Multi-agent Actor-Critic (NMAC) algorithm to redefine physical resources as logically isolated resource combinations, i.e., resource cells. Then, we use a clustering algorithm to group the cells with similar characteristics into various sets, i.e., resource channels, for different channels can offer different SLA guarantees. Besides, we design a multi-task mechanism to solve the problem of joint service orchestration and request dispatch (JSORD) among edge-cloud clusters, significantly reducing the runtime than traditional methods. To ensure stability, EdgeMatrix adopts a two-time-scale framework, i.e., coordinating resources and services at the large time scale and dispatching requests at the small time scale. The real trace-based experimental results verify that EdgeMatrix can improve system throughput in complex networked environments, reduce SLA violations, and significantly reduce the runtime than traditional methods.
