Establishing robust connectivity in heterogeneous networks (HetNets) is an important yet challenging problem. For a HetNet accommodating a large number of nodes, establishing perturbation-invulnerable connectivity is of utmost importance. This paper provides a robust advantaged node placement strategy best suited for sparse network graphs. In order to offer connectivity robustness, this paper models the communication range of an advantaged node with a hexagon embedded within a circle representing the physical range of a node. Consequently, the proposed node placement method of this paper is based on a so-called hexagonal coordinate system (HCS) in which we develop an extended algebra. We formulate a class of geometric distance optimization problems aiming at establishing robust connectivity of a graph of multiple clusters of nodes. After showing that our formulated problem is NP-hard, we utilize HCS to efficiently solve an approximation of the problem. First, we show that our solution closely approximates an exhaustive search solution approach for the originally formulated NP-hard problem. Then, we illustrate its advantages in comparison with other alternatives through experimental results capturing advantaged node cost, runtime, and robustness characteristics. The results show that our algorithm is most effective in sparse networks for which we derive classification thresholds.

We consider the positioning problem of aerial drone systems for efficient three-dimensional (3-D) coverage. Our solution draws from molecular geometry, where forces among electron pairs surrounding a central atom arrange their positions. In this pape
r, we propose a 3-D clustering algorithm for autonomous positioning (VBCA) of aerial drone networks based on virtual forces. These virtual forces induce interactions among drones and structure the system topology. The advantages of our approach are that (1) virtual forces enable drones to self-organize the positioning process and (2) VBCA can be implemented entirely localized. Extensive simulations show that our virtual forces clustering approach produces scalable 3-D topologies exhibiting near-optimal volume coverage. VBCA triggers efficient topology rearrangement for an altering number of nodes, while providing network connectivity to the central drone. We also draw a comparison of volume coverage achieved by VBCA against existing approaches and find VBCA up to 40% more efficient.
Graph neural networks (GNN), as a popular methodology for node representation learning on graphs, currently mainly focus on preserving the smoothness and identifiability of node representations. A robust node representation on graphs should further h
old the stability property which means a node representation is resistant to slight perturbations on the input. In this paper, we introduce the stability of node representations in addition to the smoothness and identifiability, and develop a novel method called contrastive graph neural networks (CGNN) that learns robust node representations in an unsupervised manner. Specifically, CGNN maintains the stability and identifiability by a contrastive learning objective, while preserving the smoothness with existing GNN models. Furthermore, the proposed method is a generic framework that can be equipped with many other backbone models (e.g. GCN, GraphSage and GAT). Extensive experiments on four benchmarks under both transductive and inductive learning setups demonstrate the effectiveness of our method in comparison with recent supervised and unsupervised models.
With the growing demand for data connectivity, network service providers are faced with the task of reducing their capital and operational expenses while simultaneously improving network performance and addressing the increased demand. Although Netwo
rk Function Virtualization (NFV) has been identified as a promising solution, several challenges must be addressed to ensure its feasibility. In this paper, we address the Virtual Network Function (VNF) migration problem by developing the VNF Neural Network for Instance Migration (VNNIM), a migration strategy for VNF instances. The performance of VNNIM is further improved through the optimization of the learning rate hyperparameter through particle swarm optimization. Results show that the VNNIM is very effective in predicting the post-migration server exhibiting a binary accuracy of 99.07% and a delay difference distribution that is centered around a mean of zero when compared to the optimization model. The greatest advantage of VNNIM, however, is its run-time efficiency highlighted through a run-time analysis.
Non-signalized intersection is a typical and common scenario for connected and automated vehicles (CAVs). How to balance safety and efficiency remains difficult for researchers. To improve the original Responsibility Sensitive Safety (RSS) driving st
rategy on the non-signalized intersection, we propose a new strategy in this paper, based on right-of-way assignment (RWA). The performances of RSS strategy, cooperative driving strategy, and RWA based strategy are tested and compared. Testing results indicate that our strategy yields better traffic efficiency than RSS strategy, but not satisfying as the cooperative driving strategy due to the limited range of communication and the lack of long-term planning. However, our new strategy requires much fewer communication costs among vehicles.
With the constant increase in demand for data connectivity, network service providers are faced with the task of reducing their capital and operational expenses while ensuring continual improvements to network performance. Although Network Function V
irtualization (NFV) has been identified as a solution, several challenges must be addressed to ensure its feasibility. In this paper, we present a machine learning-based solution to the Virtual Network Function (VNF) placement problem. This paper proposes the Depth-Optimized Delay-Aware Tree (DO-DAT) model by using the particle swarm optimization technique to optimize decision tree hyper-parameters. Using the Evolved Packet Core (EPC) as a use case, we evaluate the performance of the model and compare it to a previously proposed model and a heuristic placement strategy.
