CrowdLink: Unlocking Idle LEO Network Capacity with User Terminals

Authors: Lixin Liu, Jinyao Zhang, Bijia You, Yimei Chen, Jiabo Yang, Yuanjie Li, Hewu Li, Qian Wu, Zeqi Lai, and Jun Liu

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 139, 1st New Ideas in Networked Systems (NINeS 2026)


Abstract
The Low Earth Orbit (LEO) network is booming worldwide thanks to its unprecedented number of satellites. However, most of these satellites remain underutilized to connect more users or boost performance, posing tensions for their return on investment. A critical cause is that their gateways to the Internet (ground stations) are geographically skewed or even centralized, forming last-mile bottlenecks. We examine the potential of eliminating these bottlenecks with ubiquitous user terminals (UTs). Our solution, CrowdLink, reuses UTs as local access points to decentralize satellites' gateways to the Internet, and as relays to convert idle satellite radio links into additional paths for more network capacity. This user-centric paradigm is self-scaling to more UTs and satellites (akin to P2P networks), resilient to rapid satellite mobility, mutually beneficial for users and operators, and readily deployable in operational LEO networks. Our real tests with Starlink UTs across three countries and large-scale simulations show that CrowdLink can increase each UT’s throughput by 3.09× on average (up to 65.27×), double the LEO network capacity utilization, and unlock 2.05-7.99 million more users for Starlink without adding satellites/ground stations.

A Genetic Algorithm for Multi-Capacity Fixed-Charge Flow Network Design

Authors: Caleb Eardley, Dalton Gomez, Ryan Dupuis, Michael Papadopoulos, and Sean Yaw

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 137, 25th Symposium on Algorithmic Approaches for Transportation Modelling, Optimization, and Systems (ATMOS 2025)


Abstract
The Multi-Capacity Fixed-Charge Network Flow (MC-FCNF) problem, a generalization of the Fixed-Charge Network Flow problem, aims to assign capacities to edges in a flow network such that a target amount of flow can be hosted at minimum cost. The cost model for both problems dictates that the fixed cost of an edge is incurred for any non-zero amount of flow hosted by that edge. This problem naturally arises in many areas including infrastructure design, transportation, telecommunications, and supply chain management. The MC-FCNF problem is NP-Hard, so solving large instances using exact techniques is impractical. This paper presents a genetic algorithm designed to quickly find high-quality flow solutions to the MC-FCNF problem. The genetic algorithm uses a novel solution representation scheme that eliminates the need to repair invalid flow solutions, which is an issue common to many other genetic algorithms for the MC-FCNF problem. The genetic algorithm’s utility is demonstrated with an evaluation using real-world CO₂ capture, transportation, and storage infrastructure design data. The evaluation results highlight the genetic algorithm’s potential for solving large-scale network design problems.

Knowledge Engineering Using Large Language Models

Authors: Bradley P. Allen, Lise Stork, and Paul Groth

Published in: TGDK, Volume 1, Issue 1 (2023): Special Issue on Trends in Graph Data and Knowledge. Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge, Volume 1, Issue 1


Abstract
Knowledge engineering is a discipline that focuses on the creation and maintenance of processes that generate and apply knowledge. Traditionally, knowledge engineering approaches have focused on knowledge expressed in formal languages. The emergence of large language models and their capabilities to effectively work with natural language, in its broadest sense, raises questions about the foundations and practice of knowledge engineering. Here, we outline the potential role of LLMs in knowledge engineering, identifying two central directions: 1) creating hybrid neuro-symbolic knowledge systems; and 2) enabling knowledge engineering in natural language. Additionally, we formulate key open research questions to tackle these directions.

Abstract
Large Language Models (LLMs) have taken Knowledge Representation - and the world - by storm. This inflection point marks a shift from explicit knowledge representation to a renewed focus on the hybrid representation of both explicit knowledge and parametric knowledge. In this position paper, we will discuss some of the common debate points within the community on LLMs (parametric knowledge) and Knowledge Graphs (explicit knowledge) and speculate on opportunities and visions that the renewed focus brings, as well as related research topics and challenges.

Machine Learning and Knowledge Graphs: Existing Gaps and Future Research Challenges

Authors: Claudia d'Amato, Louis Mahon, Pierre Monnin, and Giorgos Stamou

Published in: TGDK, Volume 1, Issue 1 (2023): Special Issue on Trends in Graph Data and Knowledge. Transactions on Graph Data and Knowledge, Volume 1, Issue 1


Abstract
The graph model is nowadays largely adopted to model a wide range of knowledge and data, spanning from social networks to knowledge graphs (KGs), representing a successful paradigm of how symbolic and transparent AI can scale on the World Wide Web. However, due to their unprecedented volume, they are generally tackled by Machine Learning (ML) and mostly numeric based methods such as graph embedding models (KGE) and deep neural networks (DNNs). The latter methods have been proved lately very efficient, leading the current AI spring. In this vision paper, we introduce some of the main existing methods for combining KGs and ML, divided into two categories: those using ML to improve KGs, and those using KGs to improve results on ML tasks. From this introduction, we highlight research gaps and perspectives that we deem promising and currently under-explored for the involved research communities, spanning from KG support for LLM prompting, integration of KG semantics in ML models to symbol-based methods, interpretability of ML models, and the need for improved benchmark datasets. In our opinion, such perspectives are stepping stones in an ultimate view of KGs as central assets for neuro-symbolic and explainable AI.

A Linux Real-Time Packet Scheduler for Reliable Static SDN Routing

Authors: Tao Qian, Frank Mueller, and Yufeng Xin

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 76, 29th Euromicro Conference on Real-Time Systems (ECRTS 2017)


Abstract
In a distributed computing environment, guaranteeing the hard deadline for real-time messages is essential to ensure schedulability of real-time tasks. Since capabilities of the shared resources for transmission are limited, e.g., the buffer size is limited on network devices, it becomes a challenge to design an effective and feasible resource sharing policy based on both the demand of real-time packet transmissions and the limitation of resource capabilities. We address this challenge in two cooperative mechanisms. First, we design a static routing algorithm to find forwarding paths for packets to guarantee their hard deadlines. The routing algorithm employs a validation-based backtracking procedure capable of deriving the demand of a set of real-time packets on each shared network device, and it checks whether this demand can be met on the device. Second, we design a packet scheduler that runs on network devices to transmit messages according to our routing requirements. We implement these mechanisms on virtual software-defined network (SDN) switches and evaluate them on real hardware in a local cluster to demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of our routing algorithm and packet scheduler.
