Abstract: A data-centric network and non-Real-Time (RT) RAN Intelligence Controller (RIC) architecture are described. The data-centric network architecture provides data plane functions (DPFs) that serve as a shared database for control functions, user functions and management functions for data plane resources in a network. The DPFs interact with control plane functions, user plane functions, management plane functions, compute plane functions, network exposure functions, and application functions of the NR network via a service interface. The non-RT RIC provides functions via rApps, manages the rApps, performs conflict mitigation and security functions, monitors machine learning (ML) performance, provides a ML model catalog that contains ML model information, provides interface terminations and stores ML data and Near-RT RIC related information in a database. An ML training host trains and evaluates ML models in the catalog, obtains training and testing data from the database, and retrains and updates the ML models.

Abstract: Systems and methods of providing policy and charging control in an information-centric network are described. An interest packet is transmitted from a content consumer to a holder through a gNB, ICN-PoA and ICN-GW. The interest packet has a prefix identifying content to be retrieved and a type field indicating an interest packet. The ICN-PoA modifies the interest packet to include a type of service (TS) field having the identity of the consumer and then transmitted to the ICN-GW when the content is neither created nor cached inside the 5G network. A data packet that includes the prefix, a type field indicating a data packet and the TS field is returned from the ICN-GW. The data packet is modified by the ICN-PoA to remove the TS field and transmitted to the consumer. The interest and data packets are logged and reported to an ICN-CF for generation of charging records.

Abstract: Various approaches to efficiently allocating and utilizing hardware resources in data centers while maintaining compliance with a service level objective (SLO) specified for a computational workload is translated into a hardware-level SLO to facilitate direct enforcement by the hardware processor, e.g., using a feedback control loop or model-based mapping of the hardware-level SLO to allocations of microarchitecture resources of the processor. In some embodiments, a computational model of the hardware behavior under resource contention is used to predict the application performance (e.g., as measured in terms of the hardware-level SLO) to be expected under certain contention scenarios. Scheduling of workloads among the compute nodes within the data center may be based on such predictions. In further embodiments, configurations of microservices are optimized to minimize hardware resources while meeting a specified performance goal.
