In this paper, we consider a class of structured fractional programs, where the numerator part is the sum of a block-separable (possibly nonsmooth nonconvex) function and a locally Lipschitz differentiable (possibly n...

The Network Data Analytics Function (NWDAF) within the 5G core is not an inherent feature of open-source 5G cores, making its implementation necessary based on provider demands. However, for those seeking to integrate NWDAF into the core but lacking expertise in core architecture or application programming interface (API) integration, this task can be daunting, potentially resulting in the abandonment of data analytics implementation efforts. While the current version of NWDAF specifies certain use cases, it does not provide alternatives for developing new analytics scenarios. To fill this gap, this paper proposes a framework for 5G network data analytics designed to facilitate algorithmic modifications and the addition of new analytical contexts. The framework was developed considering the 3GPP technical specifications related to data analytics. Its evaluation was performed through a use case focused on cybersecurity anomaly detection applied to a 5G network core. The results demonstrated that the framework simplifies installation, increases flexibility for new algorithms, and integrates seamlessly into the 5G network core, effectively addressing previously identified shortcomings.

Workload co-location has become the de-facto approach for hosting applications in Cloud environments, leading, however, to interference and fragmentation in shared resources of the system. To this end, hardware disaggregation is introduced as a novel paradigm, that allows fine-grained tailoring of cloud resources to the characteristics of the deployed applications. Towards the realization of hardware disaggregated clouds, novel orchestration frameworks must provide additional knobs to manage the increased scheduling *** present Adrias, a memory orchestration framework for disaggregated cloud systems. Adrias exploits information from low-level performance events and applies deep learning techniques to effectively predict the system state and performance of arriving workloads on memory disaggregated systems, thus, driving cognitive scheduling between local and remote memory allocation modes. We evaluate Adrias on a state-of-art disaggregated testbed and show that it achieves 0.99 and 0.942 R 2 score for system state and application’s performance prediction on average respectively. Moreover, Adrias manages to effectively utilize disaggregated memory, by offloading almost 1/3 of deployed applications with less than 15% performance overhead compared to a conventional local memory scheduling, while clearly outperforms naive scheduling approaches (random and round-robin), by providing up to ×2 better performance.

The dynamic and uneven terrain of our environment introduces complexity for locomotion vehicles to navigate easily across different settings. Wheelchairs belong to the category of vehicles that require locomotion across various uneven terrains, such as stairs and other partitions. Therefore, the aim of this work is to design a wheel that can travel through various environments without using complex mechanisms. This aim was achieved by creating a novel transformable wheel. This wheel can turn into a legged wheel without using a complex mechanism and, when unnecessary, transform back into a normal wheel. Several simulations were carried out to understand the design's capability to overcome obstacles. In this case, the stair was the obstacle, and the results illustrated that the wheel is capable of climbing stairs without serious issues. Different parameters, such as speed and force, were examined with various values. The results showed that the weight on the wheelchair plays a significant role in climbing. For instance, with lighter weight, the structure moves without major slipping. The roughness of the surface is also related to the wheelchair's ability to reach the top of the stairs. A finer depth of cuts on the surface of the stairs increases the chance of the legged wheel firmly gripping and moving up the stairs.

Image retargeting involves the adjustment of an image's dimensions to ensure that its content and visual quality are preserved when the image is resized to fit various screens or devices. This process retains all essential visual elements and details. Different techniques have been developed for this purpose, including cropping (CR), scaling (SCL), seam carving (SC), warping (WARP), scale-and-stretch (SNS), multi-operator (MULTI), and shift-map (SM). However, determining the most suitable method for retargeting a specific image with particular dimensions remains a challenge. Therefore, this research introduces initial work on developing CNN based deep learning model and a transfer learning model based on InceptionV3,to predict the optimal retargeting method for a given image and resolution. The study employed a dataset consisting of 46,716 images with varying resolutions, created using different retargeting techniques, categorized into six groups. Results demonstrates a promising effectiveness of the proposed approach for selecting the appropriate retargeting techniques.

We can obtain valuable information about the human brain using functional Near Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS). This paper describes the theoretical basis associated with this neuroimaging method through a custom-made prototype of a single-channel fNIRS device. The optodes were soldered to a milled Printed Circuit Board (PCB) and enclosed in a 3D printed housing. Using this fNIRS device, we performed a preliminary study to measure emotional responses from participants. Our results suggest that fNIRS allows for accurate measurement of emotions evoked by positive and negative images.
