FIRE: A Failure-Adaptive RL Framework for Edge Computing Migrations
In edge computing, users' service profiles are migrated between edge servers due to user mobility. Reinforcement Learning (RL) frameworks have been proposed to do so, often trained on simulated data. However, existing RL frameworks overlook occasional server failures, which although rare, impact latency-sensitive applications like AR/VR and real- time obstacle detection. These rare failures, being not adequately represented in historical training data, pose a challenge for data-driven RL algorithms. We introduce FIRE, a framework that adapts to rare events by training a RL policy in an edge computing digital twin environment. We propose FIRE-ImRE, an importance sampling-based Q-learning algorithm, which samples rare events proportionally to their impact on the value function. FIRE considers delay, migration, failure, and backup placement costs across individual and shared service profiles. We prove FIRE-ImRE's boundedness and convergence to optimality. Next, we introduce novel deep Q-learning (FIRE-ImDQL) and actor critic (FIRE-ImACRE) versions of our algorithm to enhance scalability. Here, we extend our framework to accommodate users with varying risk tolerances of rare failure events. Through trace-driven experiments, we show that FIRE reduces edge computing costs compared to vanilla RL and the greedy baseline in the event of failures.

exadigitUE5
This project provides the AR/VR interface to ORNL's exascale digital twin. The main functionality is implemented using Unreal Engine 5.1 for Desktop or Microsoft Hololens2 based visualization and interation with the system. The digital twin provides data ingestion from telemetry, as well as triggering and interacting with simulations developed for the wider ExaDigiT project at ORNL, as well as for the LUMI system at CSC and other CrayEX Supercomputers. For the overarching project, see ExaDigiT at https://exadigit.github.io, with the code repositories at https://code.ornl.gov/exadigit.

The Future of Visualization Technology Vis in Practice
Two decades ago, we witnessed an inflection point as graphics programming became commoditized. A comparable inflection point may be on the horizon, this time driven by the commoditization of immersive display technology with Augmented Reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR), and Extended Reality (XR) technologies poised to redefine our interaction with data, environments, and collaboration. To drive the technology and its application, we should consider the lessons learned from successful large-scale immersive installations. Where these installations have thrived is by enhancing traditional workflows rather than entirely replacing them, supporting improved judgments of complex spaces, direct interaction in 3D, and embedding high-dimensional data.
