    Abstract: This disclosure relates generally to distributed robotic networks, and more particularly to communication link-prediction in the distributed robotic networks. In one embodiment, robots in a robotic network, which are mobile, can establish communication with a cloud network through a fog node, wherein the fog node is a static node. A robot can directly communicate with a fog node (R2F) if the fog node is in the communication range of the robot. If there is no fog node in the communication range of the robot, then the robot can establish communication with another robot (R2R) and indirectly communicate with the fog node through the connected robot. Communication link prediction is used to identify one or more communication links that can be used by a robot for establishing communication with the cloud network. A link that satisfies requirements in terms of link quality and any other parameter is used for communication purpose.

    Abstract: The present application provides a method and system for optimal caching of content in the Information Centric Networks (ICN) and a cache replacement based on a content metric value. The method and system comprises requesting for a plurality of content by a user to a nearest local or edge ICN cache router; delivering by the local or edge ICN cache router the requested plurality of content to the user if it is available in its cache; else forwarding the request for the plurality of content to any of intermediate ICN cache router for finding source of the requested plurality of content; downloading the plurality of content in its downstream path; and storing the downloaded plurality of content based on a content metric value derived by a content metric system (CMS) based on a plurality of network parameters for the requested plurality of content.

    Abstract: A method for uplink scheduling over a communication channel in a communication network including at least one UE and an eNodeB, is described. The method comprises determining whether the UE is associated with at least one of Guaranteed Bit Rate (GBR) bearers and non-Guaranteed Bit Rate (non-GBR) bearers. Based on the determining, for each of the GBR-bearers and the non-GBR-bearers, computing a demand for resources for establishing an uplink communication, wherein the demand is computed based physical layer characteristics and transport layer characteristics associated with the communication channel. The demand computed is communicated as a request message to the eNodeB. In response to the request message, receiving an allocation of the resources for uplink scheduling from the eNodeB.

    Abstract: A method and a system is disclosed herein for co-operative on-path and off-path caching policy for information centric networks (ICN). In an embodiment, a computer implemented method and system is provided for cooperative on-path and off-path caching policy for information centric networks in which the edge routers or on-path routers optimally store the requested ICN contents and are supported by a strategically placed central off-path cache router for additional level of caching. A heuristic mechanism has also been provided to offload and to optimally store the contents from the on-path routers to off-path central cache router. The present scheme optimally stores the requested ICN contents either in the on-path edge routers or in strategically located off-path central cache router. The present scheme also ensures optimal formulation resulting in reduced cache duplication, delay and network usage.

    Abstract: This disclosure relates generally to autonomous devices, and more particularly to method and system to optimally allocate warehouse procurement tasks to distributed autonomous devices. The method includes obtaining, at a coordinating agent, a global task associated with the warehouse and information associated with the robotic agents. The information includes a count and status of the robotic agents. The global task is profiled to obtain a set of sub-tasks and constraints associated with the set of sub-tasks are identified. The constraints include utilization constraint and/or pricing constraints. A distributed, decentralized optimal task allocation is performed amongst the robotic agents based on constraints to obtain optimal performance of robotic agents. The distributed optimal task allocation includes performing primal or dual decomposition of the set of sub-tasks by each robotic agent and updating corresponding primal/dual variables by the coordinating agent when the optimization is performed based on utilization constraint and pricing constraints, respectively.

    Abstract: A technique for estimating cache size for cache routers in information centric networks (ICNs) is disclosed. In an example, an average rate of incoming requests and a probability of occurrence of each request at a cache router in a predefined time interval is determined. Further, a relation between cache hit and cache miss with and without replacement is derived based on the probability of occurrence of each request. Furthermore, an entropy of the requests is computed based on the probability of occurrence of each request. Moreover, a diversity index of the requests is calculated based on the entropy and the average rate of the requests. A cache size for the cache router is then estimated based on a user defined probability of cache hit, the average rate of the requests, the diversity index of the requests and the relation between the cache hit and cache miss with and without replacement.
