Abstract
This paper introduces a reliability conscious admission controller for enterprise level data networks. It builds upon earlier work on adaptive admission controllers designed to optimize utility (often revenue) in a data network. This was generally accomplished by using service level agreements (SLAs) to describe user requirements, and developing techniques for optimally accommodating a subset of all the SLAs requests for admission. Such admission problem can be mapped to a variant of the classic Knapsack problem. The controller introduced here, called the reliable SLA optimizer (R-SLAOpt), extends the previous model to make provisions for improved reliability. For instance, an SLA must be allocated to a new path in the event of a link failure. To accomplish this SLA adaptation, alternate paths are pre-calculated and therefore these paths can be quickly selected and activated. This makes R-SLAOpt a far more appropriate model for time critical applications, such as managing multimedia sessions.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
