Abstract
To efficiently allocate heterogeneous resources for customized services, in this article, we propose a network virtualization (NV)-based network architecture in cybertwin-enabled 6G core networks. In particular, we investigate how to optimize the virtual network (VN) topology (which consists of several virtual nodes and a set of intermediate virtual links) and determine the resultant VN embedding in a joint way over a cybertwin-enabled substrate network. To this end, we formulate an optimization problem whose objective is to minimize the embedding cost, while ensuring that the end-to-end (E2E) packet delay requirements are satisfied. The queueing network theory is utilized to evaluate each service’s E2E packet delay, which is a function of the resources assigned to the virtual nodes and virtual links for the embedded VN. We reveal that the problem under consideration is formally a mixed-integer nonlinear program (MINLP) and propose an improved brute-force search algorithm to find its optimal solutions. To enhance the algorithm’s scalability and reduce the computational complexity, we further propose an adaptively weighted heuristic algorithm to obtain near-optimal solutions to the problem for large-scale networks. Simulations are conducted to show that the proposed algorithms can effectively improve network performance compared to other benchmark 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
