Summary: This study aims to improve a two-level hierarchical queue management method based on priority and balancing under the interaction prediction principle. The lower level of calculations is connected with problem optimization solutions for congestion management and resource allocation. The proposed method recommends placing the lower-level functions on a set of processors responsible for servicing packets of individual macro-queues, while the processor coordinator performs upper-level calculations to allocate interface bandwidth among the macro-queues. Numerical research confirms the effectiveness of the method in ensuring high scalability and reducing task-solving time related to queue management.

Summary: UAV-based mobile relay communication systems play a vital role in future wireless networks, providing ubiquitous network services and applications in emergency situations. Analyzing delay performance at the granular packet level and establishing a priority queuing model for heterogeneous traffic can improve network efficiency and ensure high-priority traffic is served first. Extensive numerical simulations verified the accuracy and effectiveness of the analytical model, showing the importance of UAV trajectory on network performance and the benefits of dynamic trajectories in utilizing channel capacity.

Summary: This paper investigates a large service system with two customer classes, proposes a novel many-server asymptotic regime, where the queue of the slow class behaves like a diffusion limit and the queue of the fast class evolves as a fluid limit. The FDH limit is accurate when there is a significant difference in service rates between the two classes.

Summary: Fog computing is a decentralized computing environment that extends cloud computing by processing tasks near end-users on fog nodes. Task scheduling in fog computing is important, as different tasks have different latency requirements. This paper proposes a multi-queue priority-based preemptive task scheduling approach that achieves a balanced task allocation for both latency-sensitive and less latency-sensitive tasks.

Summary: With the development of information technology, optical access network has become more diverse and complex. Network slicing, especially in Fi-Wi access network, offers a feasible solution for effectively managing heterogeneous resources. In this paper, an elastic adaptive network slicing scheme based on multi-priority cooperative prediction is proposed. The scheme utilizes priority modeling, depth-first search algorithm, and LSTM model to improve resource allocation, reduce delay for delay-sensitive requests, and mitigate extra delay caused by insufficient reserved resources.

Summary: This paper proposes a Vehicle-Platoon-Aware Bi-Level Optimization Algorithm for Autonomous Intersection Management (VPA-AIM) to coordinate the merging of Connected and Automated Vehicles at unsignalized intersections. The algorithm aims to balance traffic performance and computational efficiency by incorporating the platoon formation scheme into the upper-level traffic scheduling model and jointly optimizing the passing sequence and timeslots of vehicles with the platoon configuration scheme based on real-time traffic states. A lower-level trajectory planning model is also utilized to generate dynamically-feasible and energy-efficient trajectories, improving space utilization and preventing spillbacks. Numerical experiments demonstrate the superiority of the proposed approach in optimality and stability for real-life applications.

Summary: The paper proposes a novel congestion control algorithm in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) using fair bandwidth allocation, traffic class prioritization, and Adaptive Queue Management (ADQM) concepts. The proposed algorithm effectively addresses congestion by considering traffic class priority, average queue size, and node connected loads to achieve fair spare bandwidth distribution. Implemented and evaluated in NS3 platform, the algorithm outperforms existing algorithms in terms of throughput, packet loss, delay, traffic patterns, node mobility, and average queue size.

Summary: The increasing demand for data transfer over the Internet has put a strain on the Internet infrastructure, leading to a lack of rapid response to emergencies and disasters. To address this issue, a network flow priority management model based on machine learning (ML) and software-defined networking (SDN) is proposed. The model prioritizes data traffic from Security, Health, and Emergency (SHE) networks, which work in closed and private domains. The proposed model, evaluated using MATLAB and the Mininet simulator, shows a significant reduction in queuing delay and lost packets, improving the overall efficiency of network traffic management.
