Study of Mixed-Integer Optimization Based on Graph-Based Decomposition for Cell-Free Networks

This letter develops a radio access network (RAN) framework for mixed discrete-continuous optimization problems that arise in user-centric cell=free massive multiple-antenna networks. The novel framework exploits the structural decomposition between discrete clustering decisions and continuous resource allocation variables by modeling the space of feasible serving states as a graph with Hamming-topology neighborhoods. A serving-state graph abstraction is introduced to enable topology-aware search-and-evaluate optimization procedures and a graph-based search-and-evaluate (GBSE) algorithm is devised along with their complexity analysis. Energy efficiency maximization at the RAN level is presented as an application of considered alongside the proposed framework and GBSE algorithm. Numerical results show that minimal Hamming neighborhoods offer an attractive trade-off between scalability and exploration capability in grap-based optimization and GBSE outperforms existing techniques.

Study of Graph-Based Search for Energy-Efficient Clustering in Cell-Free Massive MIMO Networks

This paper investigates energy-efficient clustering in user-centric cell-free massive MIMO networks, addressing the access point clustering and power allocation problems via a mixed-integer fractional program. We propose a framework for energy-efficient clustering and power allocation with a graph-based structured search and describe its optimum solution via an exhaustive search. We also develop the Graph-Based Steepest Ascent (GBSA) algorithm, which combines a graph-based structured search along with continuous power allocation via fractional programming. The proposed GBSA algorithm achieves linear per-iteration complexity while reaching energy efficiency close to the global optimum, outperforming competing techniques and offering a scalable solution for future networks.

A Polystore Architecture Using Knowledge Graphs to Support Queries on Heterogeneous Data Stores

Modern applications commonly need to manage dataset types composed of heterogeneous data and schemas, making it difficult to access them in an integrated way. A single data store to manage heterogeneous data using a common data model is not effective in such a scenario, which results in the domain data being fragmented in the data stores that best fit their storage and access requirements (e.g., NoSQL, relational DBMS, or HDFS). Besides, organization workflows independently consume these fragments, and usually, there is no explicit link among the fragments that would be useful to support an integrated view. The research challenge tackled by this work is to provide the means to query heterogeneous data residing on distinct data repositories that are not explicitly connected. We propose a federated database architecture by providing a single abstract global conceptual schema to users, allowing them to write their queries, encapsulating data heterogeneity, location, and linkage by employing: (i) meta-models to represent the global conceptual schema, the remote data local conceptual schemas, and mappings among them; (ii) provenance to create explicit links among the consumed and generated data residing in separate datasets. We evaluated the architecture through its implementation as a polystore service, following a microservice architecture approach, in a scenario that simulates a real case in Oil \& Gas industry. Also, we compared the proposed architecture to a relational multidatabase system based on foreign data wrappers, measuring the user's cognitive load to write a query (or query complexity) and the query processing time. The results demonstrated that the proposed architecture allows query writing two times less complex than the one written for the relational multidatabase system, adding an excess of no more than 30% in query processing time.
