In this paper, the problem of minimizing energy and time consumption for task computation and transmission is studied in a mobile edge computing (MEC)-enabled balloon network. In the considered network, each user needs to process a computational task in each time instant, where high-altitude balloons (HABs), acting as flying wireless base stations, can use their powerful computational abilities to process the tasks offloaded from their associated users. Since the data size of each users computational task varies over time, the HABs must dynamically adjust the user association, service sequence, and task partition scheme to meet the users needs. This problem is posed as an optimization problem whose goal is to minimize the energy and time consumption for task computing and transmission by adjusting the user association, service sequence, and task allocation scheme. To solve this problem, a support vector machine (SVM)-based federated learning (FL) algorithm is proposed to determine the user association proactively. The proposed SVM-based FL method enables each HAB to cooperatively build an SVM model that can determine all user associations without any transmissions of either user historical associations or computational tasks to other HABs. Given the prediction of the optimal user association, the service sequence and task allocation of each user can be optimized so as to minimize the weighted sum of the energy and time consumption. Simulations with real data of city cellular traffic from the OMNILab at Shanghai Jiao Tong University show that the proposed algorithm can reduce the weighted sum of the energy and time consumption of all users by up to 16.1% compared to a conventional centralized method.

In this paper, a joint task, spectrum, and transmit power allocation problem is investigated for a wireless network in which the base stations (BSs) are equipped with mobile edge computing (MEC) servers to jointly provide computational and communicat
ion services to users. Each user can request one computational task from three types of computational tasks. Since the data size of each computational task is different, as the requested computational task varies, the BSs must adjust their resource (subcarrier and transmit power) and task allocation schemes to effectively serve the users. This problem is formulated as an optimization problem whose goal is to minimize the maximal computational and transmission delay among all users. A multi-stack reinforcement learning (RL) algorithm is developed to solve this problem. Using the proposed algorithm, each BS can record the historical resource allocation schemes and users information in its multiple stacks to avoid learning the same resource allocation scheme and users states, thus improving the convergence speed and learning efficiency. Simulation results illustrate that the proposed algorithm can reduce the number of iterations needed for convergence and the maximal delay among all users by up to 18% and 11.1% compared to the standard Q-learning algorithm.
We advocate a new resource allocation framework, which we term resource rationing, for wireless federated learning (FL). Unlike existing resource allocation methods for FL, resource rationing focuses on balancing resources across learning rounds so t
hat their collective impact on the federated learning performance is explicitly captured. This new framework can be integrated seamlessly with existing resource allocation schemes to optimize the convergence of FL. In particular, a novel later-is-better principle is at the front and center of resource rationing, which is validated empirically in several instances of wireless FL. We also point out technical challenges and research opportunities that are worth pursuing. Resource rationing highlights the benefits of treating the emerging FL as a new class of service that has its own characteristics, and designing communication algorithms for this particular service.
With the development of federated learning (FL), mobile devices (MDs) are able to train their local models with private data and sends them to a central server for aggregation, thereby preventing sensitive raw data leakage. In this paper, we aim to i
mprove the training performance of FL systems in the context of wireless channels and stochastic energy arrivals of MDs. To this purpose, we dynamically optimize MDs transmission power and training task scheduling. We first model this dynamic programming problem as a constrained Markov decision process (CMDP). Due to high dimensions rooted from our CMDP problem, we propose online stochastic learning methods to simplify the CMDP and design online algorithms to obtain an efficient policy for all MDs. Since there are long-term constraints in our CMDP, we utilize Lagrange multipliers approach to tackle this issue. Furthermore, we prove the convergence of the proposed online stochastic learning algorithm. Numerical results indicate that the proposed algorithms can achieve better performance than the benchmark algorithms.
There is an increasing interest in a fast-growing machine learning technique called Federated Learning, in which the model training is distributed over mobile user equipments (UEs), exploiting UEs local computation and training data. Despite its adva
ntages in data privacy-preserving, Federated Learning (FL) still has challenges in heterogeneity across UEs data and physical resources. We first propose a FL algorithm which can handle the heterogeneous UEs data challenge without further assumptions except strongly convex and smooth loss functions. We provide the convergence rate characterizing the trade-off between local computation rounds of UE to update its local model and global communication rounds to update the FL global model. We then employ the proposed FL algorithm in wireless networks as a resource allocation optimization problem that captures the trade-off between the FL convergence wall clock time and energy consumption of UEs with heterogeneous computing and power resources. Even though the wireless resource allocation problem of FL is non-convex, we exploit this problems structure to decompose it into three sub-problems and analyze their closed-form solutions as well as insights to problem design. Finally, we illustrate the theoretical analysis for the new algorithm with Tensorflow experiments and extensive numerical results for the wireless resource allocation sub-problems. The experiment results not only verify the theoretical convergence but also show that our proposed algorithm outperforms the vanilla FedAvg algorithm in terms of convergence rate and testing accuracy.
As a promising solution to achieve efficient learning among isolated data owners and solve data privacy issues, federated learning is receiving wide attention. Using the edge server as an intermediary can effectively collect sensor data, perform loca
l model training, and upload model parameters for global aggregation. So this paper proposes a new framework for resource allocation in a hierarchical network supported by edge computing. In this framework, we minimize the weighted sum of system cost and learning cost by optimizing bandwidth, computing frequency, power allocation and subcarrier assignment. To solve this challenging mixed-integer non-linear problem, we first decouple the bandwidth optimization problem(P1) from the whole problem and obtain a closed-form solution. The remaining computational frequency, power, and subcarrier joint optimization problem(P2) can be further decomposed into two sub-problems: latency and computational frequency optimization problem(P3) and transmission power and subcarrier optimization problem(P4). P3 is a convex optimization problem that is easy to solve. In the joint optimization problem(P4), the optimal power under each subcarrier selection can be obtained first through the successive convex approximation(SCA) algorithm. Substituting the optimal power value obtained back to P4, the subproblem can be regarded as an assignment problem, so the Hungarian algorithm can be effectively used to solve it. The solution of problem P2 is accomplished by solving P3 and P4 iteratively. To verify the performance of the algorithm, we compare the proposed algorithm with five algorithms; namely Equal bandwidth allocation, Learning cost guaranteed, Greedy subcarrier allocation, System cost guaranteed and Time-biased algorithm. Numerical results show the significant performance gain and the robustness of the proposed algorithm in the face of parameter changes.
