The IEEE Global Communications Conference (GLOBECOM) is one of the IEEE Communications Society’s two flagship conferences dedicated to driving innovation in nearly every aspect of communications.

Our work titled "Digital Twin-Assisted Robust and Adaptive Resource Slicing in LEO Satellite Networks" by Mingcheng He, Huaqing Wu, Conghao Zhou, Shisheng Hu, Zhixuan Tang, and Prof. Weihua Zhuang won the Best Paper Award from IEEE GLOBECOM 2024, Cape Town, South Africa, Dec. 8-12, 2024. 

This paper investigates a resource slicing problem in low Earth orbit satellite networks (LSN) and propose a digital twin-assisted approach to address LEO satellite mobility and non-stationary service demands. With the constructed digital twin, resource slicing can better account for service demand uncertainties under high LSN topology mobility conditions, thereby enhancing the robustness and adaptiveness of resource slicing.

IEEE Communications Society organizes the Four Minute Thesis (4MT) Competition at the GLOBECOM 2024, Dec. 8-12, 2024, and awards Ph.D. students who clearly explain their research projects and technical contributions to non-specialist audiences in just four minutes with 4MT Competition Awards.

Xinyu Huang, supervised by Prof. Xuemin (Sherman) Shen, won the Third Prize in the IEEE ComSoc Four Minute Thesis (4MT) final competition. In the competition, Xinyu first introduced emerging applications in 6G networks, which required flexible and intelligent network management. Then, he explored the potential challenges from data collection cost, user behavior dynamics, and decision-making reliability. Finally, a three-layer AI native digital twin architecture was proposed to solve these challenges.
