Abstract
The application of blockchain to mobile edge computing (MEC) systems has attracted great interests. However, the design and optimization of blockchain and MEC in most existing works are done separately, which will result in sub-optimal performance. In this paper, we propose a joint optimization framework for blockchain-enabled MEC systems to achieve the optimal trade-off between the performance of the MEC system and the performance of the blockchain system. Specifically, both MEC and blockchain are considered as services in the framework, where energy consumption and delay/time to finality (DTF) are the performance metrics for the MEC system and the blockchain system, respectively. We formulate an optimization problem to achieve the optimal trade-off through jointly optimizing user association, data rate allocation, block producer scheduling, and computational resource allocation. To solve the problem, we decouple the optimization variables for efficient algorithm design. In addition, we develop an iterative algorithm for user association and data rate allocation and a bisection algorithm for computing resource allocation. Simulation results show the convergence of the proposed algorithms, and the proposed scheme can achieve the optimal trade-off between energy consumption and DTF.

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
