A Programming Language and System for Heterogeneous Cloud of Things
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Cloud of Things (CoT) is a computing model that combines the widely popular cloud computing with Internet of Things (IoT). One of the major problems with CoT is the latency of accessing distant cloud resources from the devices, where the data is captured. To address this problem, paradigms such as fog computing and Cloudlets have been proposed to interpose another layer of computing between the clouds and devices. Such a three-layered cloud-fog-device computing architecture is touted as the most suitable approach for deploying many next generation ubiquitous computing applications. Programming applications to run on such a platform is quite challenging because disconnections between the different layers are bound to happen in a large-scale CoT system, where the devices can be mobile. This paper presents a programming language and system for a three-layered CoT system. We illustrate how our language and system addresses some of the key challenges in the three-layered CoT. A proof-of-concept prototype compiler and runtime have been implemented and several example applications are developed using it.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
