Intent Engine is a natural‑language intent translation architecture that converts user intents into validated Service‑level Objectives (SLOs) for compute‑continuum microservice placement. It combines schema‑constrained extraction, retrieval‑grounded value construction from monitored infrastructure, and validation against supported constraints to produce reliable SLO artifacts. In evaluations on a 716‑record dataset, Intent Engine outperformed prompting baselines and a rule‑based parser, achieving a 0.941 total F1 score with GPT‑4.1 mini and reducing downstream placement failures from 30.8% to 2.1%.

The paper proposes a human-centered framework for validating the semantic soundness of machine learning models used in network traffic classification. It extends existing knowledge-generation methods by integrating data, models, explainability tools, visualizations, and expert reasoning to iteratively explore, verify, and refine model behavior and preprocessing steps. The framework is built on literature findings, benchmark analyses, XAI experience, and expert feedback, offering practical guidance for ensuring models learn trustworthy, semantically meaningful patterns rather than spurious correlations.

STR-Agent is an LLM-driven framework designed for QoS-aware routing in Low Earth Orbit satellite networks. It integrates intent perception, tool-based execution, experience accumulation, and reflection-based policy adaptation to translate natural-language service requests into adaptive routing decisions. In simulations on a Walker-Delta constellation, STR-Agent reduces end-to-end delay by up to 60% compared with DQ-Dijkstra and improves intent-understanding accuracy from 45.4% to 92.45% after fine-tuning, with the Reflection Module providing additional delay reductions.
