Abstract
Providing multitenant, multiaccess, and multiservice solutions in communities is a key enabler to sustain innovations and economic development in society. This article investigates a solution for rearchitecting a telecommunications company's (telco's) central office to offer services in a smart community, enabled by virtual network function elements running on a smart edge. At the same time, these elements manage a multiaccess underlying infrastructure and deploy telco services with minimal resource consumption. This solution has successfully been implemented in a living lab model the authors built within a Canadian university, providing various Internet of Things (IoT) services such as smart grid monitoring and public safety. The virtual smart edge flexibly routes traffic, aggregates, and splits flows across a heterogeneous network to achieve network operational efficiency, as well as optimizes computing resource allocation for last-mile IoT services hosted close to the end user. Instead of reducing resource consumption in a single home as in the traditional approach, this solution minimizes a community's global consumption.

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
