Joint Task Offloading and User Scheduling in 5G MEC Under Jamming Attacks
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In this paper, we propose a novel joint task offloading and user scheduling (JTO-US) framework for 5G mobile edge computing (MEC) systems under security threats from jamming attacks. The goal is to minimize the delay and the ratio of dropped tasks, taking into account both communication and computation delays. The system model includes a 5G network equipped with MEC servers and an adversarial on-off jammer that disrupts communication. The proposed framework optimally schedules tasks and users to minimize the impact of jamming while ensuring that high-priority tasks are processed efficiently. Genetic algorithm (GA) is used to solve the optimization problem, and the results are compared with benchmark methods such as GA without considering jamming effect, Shortest Job First (SJF), and Shortest Deadline First (SDF). The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed JTO-US framework achieves the lowest drop ratio in the presence of the jammer and effectively manages priority tasks, outperforming existing methods. Particularly, when the jamming probability is 0.8, the proposed framework mitigates the jammer's impact by reducing the drop ratio to 63%, compared to 89% achieved by the next best method.

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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
