Quantum entanglement brings high-speed and inherently privacy-preserving transmission for information communication in quantum networks. The qubit scarcity is an important issue that cannot be ignored in quantum networks due to the limited storage capacity of quantum device, the short lifespan of qubits, etc. In this article, we first formulate the qubit competition problem as the Cooperative-Qubit-Allocation-Problem (CQAP) by taking into account both the waiting time and the fidelity of end-to-end entanglement with the given transmission link set. We then model the CQAP as a Markov Decision Process (MDP) and adopt Reinforcement Learning (RL) algorithm to self-adaptively and cooperatively allocate qubits among quantum repeaters. Further, we introduce Active Learning (AL) algorithm to improve the efficiency of RL algorithm by reducing its trialerror times. Simulation results demonstrate that our proposed algorithm outperforms the benchmark algorithms, with 23.5 ms reduction on average waiting time and 19.2 improvement on average path maturity degree, respectively.

Identifying an unfamiliar caller{\textquoteright}s profession is important to protect citizens{\textquoteright} personal safety and property. Owing to the limited data protection of various popular online services in some countries, such as taxi hailing and ordering takeouts, many users presently encounter an increasing number of phone calls from strangers. The situation may be aggravated when criminals pretend to be such service delivery staff, threatening the user individuals as well as the society. In addition, numerous people experience excessive digital marketing and fraudulent phone calls because of personal information leakage. However, previous works on malicious call detection only focused on binary classification, which does not work for the identification of multiple professions. We observed that web service requests issued from users{\textquoteright} mobile phones may exhibit their applications preferences, spatial and temporal patterns, and other profession-related information. This offers researchers and engineers a hint to identify unfamiliar callers. In fact, some previous works already leveraged raw data from mobile phones (which includes sensitive information) for personality studies. However, accessing users{\textquoteright} mobile phone raw data may violate the more and more strict private data protection policies and regulations (e.g., General Data Protection Regulation). We observe that appropriate statistical methods can offer an effective means to eliminate private information and preserve personal characteristics, thus enabling the identification of the types of mobile phone callers without privacy concerns. In this paper, we develop CPFinder {\textemdash}- a system that exploits privacy-preserving mobile data to automatically identify callers who are divided into four categories of users: taxi drivers, delivery and takeouts staffs, telemarketers and fraudsters, and normal users (other professions). Our evaluation over an anonymized dataset of 1,282 users with a period of 3 months in Shanghai City shows that the CPFinder can achieve accuracies of more than 75.0\% and 92.4\% for multiclass and binary classifications, respectively.

Mobile edge computing (MEC) offers a way to shorten the cloud servicing delay by building the small-scale cloud infrastructures, such as cloudlets at the network edge, which are in close proximity to end users. On one hand, it is energy consuming and costly to place each cloudlet on each access point (AP) to process the requested tasks. On the other hand, the service provider should provide delay-guaranteed service to end users, otherwise they may get revenue loss. In this paper, we first model how to calculate the task completion delay in MEC and mathematically analyze the energy consumption of different equipments in MEC. Subsequently, we study how to place cloudlets on the network and allocate each requested task to cloudlets and public cloud with the minimum total energy consumption without violating each task{\textquoteright}s delay requirement. We prove that this problem is NP-hard and propose a Benders decomposition-based algorithm to solve it. We also present a software-defined network (SDN)-based framework to deploy the proposed algorithm. Extensive simulations reveal that the proposed algorithm can achieve an (close-to-)optimal performance in terms of energy consumption and acceptance ratio compared with two benchmark heuristics.

Given that the USA and Germany are the most populous countries in North America and Western Europe, understanding the behavioral differences between American and German users of online social networks is essential. In this work, we conduct a data-driven study based on the Yelp Open Dataset. We demonstrate the behavioral characteristics of both American and German users from different aspects, i.e., social connectivity, review styles, and spatiotemporal patterns. In addition, we construct a classification model to accurately recognize American and German users according to the behavioral data. Our model achieves high classification performance with an F1-score of 0.891 and AUC of 0.949.
