Abstract
The intelligent wireless edge is redefining our digital lives. By shifting the computation from cloud to edge, it promises ultra-low latency for the emergent applications, such as real-time video analytics, safe self-driving, virtual reality, online games, and many more. Many edge scenarios need low latency in indoor/outdoor, and static/mobile settings. A promising solution is the cellular edge (Figure 1, such as Amazon Wavelength [3]). To date, the 4G LTE and emerging 5G cellular networks are the largest wireless infrastructures that offer ubiquitous coverage and seamless mobility support. They operate in the licensed spectrum and support carrier-grade QoS for low latency.

Bridging the data charging gap in the cellular edge
SIGCOMM '19: Proceedings of the ACM Special Interest Group on Data CommunicationThe 4G/5G cellular edge promises low-latency experiences anywhere, anytime. However, data charging gaps can arise between the cellular operators and edge application vendors, and cause over-/under-billing. We find that such gap can come from data loss, ...
Interworked WiMAX-3G cellular data networks: an architecture for mobility management and performance evaluation
This paper proposes an architecture for interworking heterogeneous all-IP networks with an in-depth analysis of its performance. The novelty of this framework is that it freely enables any 3G cellular technology, such as the Universal Mobile ...
