one6G Open Lecture 7 – In-Network Computing and Intelligent User Plane for 6G

one6G's Open Lecture 7 took place on March 21, 2024, at 14h00 CET, covering the subject of In-Network Computing and Intelligent User Plane for 6G. The lecture narrative said:

After mobile edge computing, the next evolutionary step on the pathway to bring computation even closer to the user is to compute in the network. In-Network Computing (INC) is a promising enabler for 6G with high potential to support meeting the stringent delay requirements of 6G use-cases and applications, including robotics, VR gaming, or remote surgery. Besides latency reduction, the concept of INC has been proven beneficial for network traffic volume reduction and offloading compute tasks from mobile end-devices to the network. This allows to minimize the devices’ battery drainage and supports the design of more lightweight devices.

The one6G Open Lecture 7 centered around the topic of In-Network Computing and Intelligent User Plane for 6G. Four top experts in the field, representing both academia and industry, discussed the state of the art of INC, including architecture concepts, current challenges, and recent advances when it comes to integrating native computing as a key feature into 6G networks.
