Semantic communication (SemCom) aims to convey the meaning behind a transmitted
message by transmitting only semantically-relevant information. This semantic-centric …

Contemporary smart city solutions rely on standardized von Neumann architecture, in which
single data units are coded as “0” or “1.” Conversely, urban quantum technologies rely on …

These are exciting times for quantum physics as new quantum technologies are expected to
soon transform computing at an unprecedented level. Simultaneously network science is …

The first release of 5G technology is being rolled out worldwide. In parallel, 3GPP is
constantly adding new features to upcoming releases covering well-known use cases. This …

Since the breakthrough of Shannon's seminal paper, researchers and engineers have
worked on codes and techniques that approach the fundamental limits of message …

Quantum annealing is a quantum computing approach widely used for optimization and
probabilistic sampling problems. It is an alternative approach designed due to the limitations …

Today's cities are facing increasingly complex challenges. The growing uncertainty and
complexity—caused by the unremitted differentiation of social, environmental, and …

The study and design of 5G seems to have reached its end and 5G communication systems
are currently under de‑ployment. In parallel, 5G standardization is as Release 16, which is …

It is essential to establish precise times in future communication networks. Any real-time
task's ability to function depends on the system's ability to synchronise time. In the current …

Communication over a classical multiple-access channel (MAC) with entanglement
resources is considered, whereby two transmitters share entanglement resources a priori …
