Double Auction Mechanism Design for Video Caching in Heterogeneous Ultra-Dense Networks
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Recently, wireless streaming of on-demand videos of mobile users (MUs) has become the major form of data traffic over cellular networks. As a response, caching popular videos in the storage of small base stations (SBSs) has been regarded as an efficient approach to reduce the transmission latency and alleviate the data traffic loaded over backhaul channels. This paper considers a small-cell based caching market composed of one mobile network operator (MNO) and multiple video service providers (VSPs). In this system, the MNO manages and operates its SBSs, and assigns these SBSs' storage to different VSPs, who have caching requirements. However, videos have different popularities and MUs present different preferences to these VSPs when they request videos. In addition, the caching service brings different utilities to different VSPs as well as that providing caching service to different VSPs causes distinct costs to the MNO. Such privacy information cannot be aware of among VSPs and the MNO. Therefore, to elicit this hidden information, this paper designs a double auction-based caching mechanism, which ensures the efficient operation of the market by maximizing the social welfare, i.e., the gap between VSPs' caching utilities and MNO's caching costs. Moreover, this paper demonstrates the economic properties of the designed caching mechanism, which are also validated by the simulation results.

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.
