SoK: Semantic Decision Engines in Network Control Loops

A semantic decision engine such as Jev can return a valid answer and still miss a network deadline, select an infeasible action or leave the service unverified. We systematize 139 paper families by decision interface, execution path and check ownership. Fifty families claim that their engine fits a control loop or time budget, but only four support the claim with matched measurement. Across all 139, four report deadline attainment. The gap concentrates where the decision has no deterministic computation step. Those 72 families make 22 of the claims, none supported, and name a coverage owner in only two. Bounded tests under one event model show that each gap can reverse an admission verdict. A decision that meets a 10 s budget for every isolated request meets it for none once decisions queue ahead of replayed execution times. The same engine passes one coverage check and fails another. We derive a minimum reporting record, design rules and a research agenda for admitting decision engines to control loops.

Intent Interpretation at RIC Timescales: Jev Decision Models versus Large Language Models in 6G Open RAN

Intent-based Open RAN needs an interpreter that turns intents into A1 policies within the loop of the RAN intelligent controller (RIC). Decision models such as Jev-1.13.0 return typed policy fields, whereas generative large language models (LLMs) produce the policy token by token. We ask whether the extra delay of LLMs costs control deadlines, RIC capacity, or radio performance. We compare Jev-1.13.0 and two other decision models with LLMs on the RANIntent v1 benchmark, in closed-loop ns-3 simulation and on a real A1 and E2 path. Median interpretation takes 0.286 to 2.35 s, against under 25 ms for A1 and E2 transfer. Jev-1.13.0 meets the 1 s near-real-time budget on 99.8% of calls, while two hosted LLMs meet it on 17.9% and 0%. In the radio network, ideal enforcement moves the affected-class service-level agreement (SLA) violation by 3.96 percentage points in the direction each intent requests, against no update at the base point. No hosted LLM showed a resolved increase over Jev-1.13.0 at that point. At the same point, per-second direct control gave no resolved SLA reduction over a numerical xApp. Slow interpreters miss the 1 s budget, and two interpreters saturate their queues at 2 intents/s, whereas no radio penalty of slow interpreters was resolved at the base point.

Replacing Large Language Models with Jev Decision Models for Low-Latency Edge Service Orchestration

Natural-language service requests can require a language-model decision before execution starts, consuming part of the request's latency budget. We integrate Jev's decision-oriented application programming interface (API) into edge service orchestration to reduce this overhead while retaining service completion. The integration extracts four to eight bounded intent fields and applies a shared validator, admission policy, and scheduler, accounting for decision waiting throughout the request timeline. We compare Jev, two self-hosted decision models, and three hosted large language models (LLMs) on 8,280 verified requests and on a live admission path with modeled execution and a real optical character recognition service. Across 33 test conditions, Jev reduces median decision latency by 22.7-64.5% relative to the fastest LLM. This latency barely moves with input size, contract width, or catalog size. On four-field contracts, Jev's API fees per correct decision are 59.7-80.9% lower at a cost of a few exact-match points, while wide contracts mark the limit of the substitution. Receiving the service catalog with each request, Jev names unseen services as accurately as known ones. On the live admission path, Jev keeps 0.91-0.95 of requests exact and on time at loads where the LLMs fall below 0.1. Since caching repeated descriptions gives the interpreters nearly the same latency, Jev's gain lies in fresh decisions. These results support decision-model substitution for latency-bound admission on bounded contracts.

The Creation and Analysis of Government AI Transparency Statements in Australia

Governments increasingly deploy AI in public services, making transparency essential for accountability and public trust. Australia's Standard for AI Transparency Statements (AITS) requires government bodies to disclose how AI is used in practice, yet little empirical evidence exists on how these requirements are realised in documents. This paper presents a government AITS dataset, dubbed AITS-101, and provides one of the first systematic analysis of their content. Using stylometric, quantitative, and qualitative document analyses, we examine disclosure coverage, structure, and recurring patterns. Our findings reveal substantial variation in AI-related practice disclosure, highlight gaps between policy intent and implementation, and inform the design of more effective public-sector AI transparency standards.

Secure and Efficient Access Control for Computer-Use Agents via Context Space

Large language model (LLM)-based computer-use agents represent a convergence of AI and OS capabilities, enabling natural language to control system- and application-level functions. However, due to LLMs' inherent uncertainty issues, granting agents control over computers poses significant security risks. When agent actions deviate from user intentions, they can cause irreversible consequences. Existing mitigation approaches, such as user confirmation and LLM-based dynamic action validation, still suffer from limitations in usability, security, and performance. To address these challenges, we propose CSAgent, a system-level, static policy-based access control framework for computer-use agents. To bridge the gap between static policy and dynamic context and user intent, CSAgent introduces intent- and context-aware policies, and provides an automated toolchain to assist developers in constructing and refining them. CSAgent enforces these policies through an optimized OS service, ensuring that agent actions can only be executed under specific user intents and contexts. CSAgent supports protecting agents that control computers through diverse interfaces, including API, CLI, and GUI. We implement and evaluate CSAgent, which successfully defends against all attacks in the benchmarks while introducing only 1.99% performance overhead and 5.42% utility decrease.

Towards Context-aware Mobile Privacy Notice: Implementation of A Deployable Contextual Privacy Policies Generator

Lengthy and legally phrased privacy policies impede users' understanding of how mobile applications collect and process personal data. Prior work proposed Contextual Privacy Policies (CPPs) for mobile apps to display shorter policy snippets only in the corresponding user interface contexts, but the pipeline could not be deployable in real-world mobile environments. In this paper, we present PrivScan, the first deployable CPP Software Development Kit (SDK) for Android. It captures live app screenshots to identify GUI elements associated with types of personal data and displays CPPs in a concise, user-facing format. We provide a lightweight floating button that offers low-friction, on-demand control. The architecture leverages remote deployment to decouple the multimodal backend pipeline from a mobile client comprising five modular components, thereby reducing on-device resource demands and easing cross-platform portability. A feasibility-oriented evaluation shows an average execution time of 9.15\,s, demonstrating the practicality of our approach. The source code of PrivScan is available at https://github.com/buyanghc/PrivScan and the demo video can be found at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ck-25otfyHc.
