AOB:
"5G RAN Slice PRB Prediction rApp" Presentation & demo from from Sunil N
- Slides:
Focus on optimised allocation of PRBs to different slices
Based on NSSI performance reports from RAN NSSMF (15min)
- Uses 1 week windows (80% for training, 20% for model testing
- Tried several model types. Settled on LSTM.
- Used to predict DL PRB usage per NSSI (15 min)
Current PRB prediction rApp policy - modify PRB allocations if ( predicted usage < current ) or ( predicted usage > current * 120% )
- When triggered queries past 1 week data from InfluxDB & predicts
- Updates sent direct to NSSMF API
- Currently performance data is written direct into InfluxDB, then publishes triggered by NSSMF notification
Uses simulated NSSMF (3gpp 28.532 interfaces & notifications) as rApp
- Plan to move prediction service from inside rApp uService to AIMLFW platform
- Plan to extend to Uplink too.
- Next step:
- Create new wiki page for use case (landing page) in Integration wiki space
- Upload code, data, etc - initially in NONRTRIC rAppManager repo, but can re-file later
- Slides:
Github Actions / Workflows Migration (Matt Watkins, John Keeney (Ericsson EST), Martin Skorupski):
Matt & Ravi have solved issue for OAM GHA for container upload to nexus
Still working on uploading / releasing it/dep helm charts/scripts for SMO Install
CVEs:
- Intern now working on CVE checking (now) & fixing (soon). (Sridhar Rao)
- More tool support needed for conditional checking etc.
- Updates still in progress - more details soon hopefully
- Some updates can be suggested for OSC dockerfiles based on recent work from interns.
- Ref: https://github.com/sknrao/oransc-sanity
- Suggestion: updates can be contributed as gerrit reviews for review.
- Suggest that some effort is made to test the updates - simply building the image is unlikely to be sufficient. Some indication of tests performed or verification would be helpful/needed, especially for repos not frequently/recently updated.
