Abstract
Massive machine-type communication (mMTC) is a new focus of services in fifth generation communication networks. The associated stringent delay requirement of end-to-end (E2E) service deliveries poses technical challenges. In this paper, we propose a joint random access and data transmission protocol for mMTC to guarantee E2E service quality of different traffic types. First, we develop a priority-queueing-based access class barring (ACB) model and a novel effective capacity is derived. Then, we model the priority-queueing-based ACB policy as a noncooperative game, where utility is defined as the difference between effective capacity and access penalty price. We prove the existence and uniqueness of Nash equilibrium (NE) of the noncooperative game, which is also a submodular utility maximization problem and can be solved by a greedy updating algorithm with convergence to the unique NE. To further improve the efficiency, we present a price-update algorithm, which converges to a local optimum. Simulations demonstrate the performance of the derived effective capacity and the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms.

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
