arXiv:2510. 22397v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Network operators monitor their infrastructure by collecting telemetry data such as packet counts, byte rates, or flow volumes, yet answering the questions that effective operations demand -- forecasting future load, diagnosing and characterizing anomalies, and searching for and retrieving historical precedents -- requires more than raw measurements.

arXiv:2606. 09787v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The Cloud-Edge Continuum (CEC) enables latency-critical applications by distributing resources to the far edge, but its extreme volatility makes proactive Zero Touch Management via time-series forecasting essential.

arXiv:2606. 03910v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Disaggregated LLM inference forces the KV cache to traverse the datacenter network before decoding begins, so transfer time enters directly into the Time to First Token (TTFT) budget.

arXiv:2607. 06979v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Federated Learning (FL) enables training shared models on private, on-device data, but production deployments remain constrained to slow, multi-day refresh cycles due to the complexity of coordinating massive client populations.

The paper investigates how enterprise wireless access points (APs) can run predictive machine learning models while sharing CPU and memory with essential networking tasks. It introduces the concept of network‑aware deployability, requiring models to qualify for the AP’s hardware and to be validated under real packet‑service constraints. Benchmarks reveal that models can run 6–19× slower and use up to 22% more memory on an AP compared to a Raspberry Pi 5, and that even similarly sized forecasting models can differ by 19× in latency, leading to significant increases in round‑trip time and throughput degradation under load.

arXiv:2606. 01839v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: LLM-based agents resolve a user task through many turns of dependent inference and tool calls, producing a workload whose total cost is unknown when the task arrives.

arXiv:2602. 06136v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Test-time adaptation (TTA) offers a compelling remedy for machine learning (ML) models that degrade under domain shifts, improving generalisation on-the-fly with only unlabelled samples.

arXiv:2608. 16477v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: AI-RAN brings large language model (LLM) serving close to mobile users, but cellular handover can separate an active request from its inference state: the user attaches to a target base station (gNB) while the large and growing key-value (KV) cache remains at the source.
