Greedy competing and optimal sharing in quantum economics with quantum
cloud computing and federated learning
(Wanyang Dai's Recent Achievement Summary, 10/10/2020)
Abstract
We establish a generic system model with supply and demand sides for quantum economical
systems with quantum cloud computing and federated learning, which can be used to model
the future Internet with blockchain communication protocol and generalized Internet of
Things (IoT) with smart resource allocations (Refs. [2]-[4]). We map the two sides via
blockchain and control the internal data flow interactions via smart contracts by deep
convolutional neural network (DCNN) oriented game-theoretic pooling policies with symmetry
or asymmetry information, where federated learning algorithms with small data training are
designed. The pooling is with two levels of competitions (i.e., greedy and optimal sharing
competitions) corresponding to a mixed zero-sum and non-zero-sum game with general number of
players. In formulating our model, there are three aspects: system hardware modeling via
(quantum) cloud-computing, system software modeling via blockchain, big data
flow modeling via generalized stochastic models. The focus of our study is on the
interaction and integration of the three aspects. The effectiveness of our policies
is proved by stochastic modeling with theory and simulation examples. This project is
innovative since our generic model is new, our dynamic policy is new, and our big data
flow modeling is new. As claimed by SIR Forum (Ref. [1]), quantum computing and blockchain
will be the core technology in the coming Sixth Industrial Revolution (SIR). Thus, our
generic model is important in modeling the quantum economic systems that require synchronized
multi-item services, e.g., the future Internet with blockchain communication protocol and
supply chain finance (e.g., assemble to order (ATO)) systems. Besides, our generic model can
also be implemented in the currently developing cognitive radio, 5G/6G, IoE, FinTech, and
health-care systems.
Introduction
We establish a generic system model with supply and demand sides for quantum economical
systems with quantum cloud computing and federated learning, which can be used to model
the future Internet with blockchain communication protocol and generalized Internet of
Things (IoT) with smart resource allocations (Refs. [2]-[4]). We classify our generic model
into supply and demand sides as in a macro-economic system (Ref. [2]). The supply-side can
be a general information network while demand-side can consist of various things with general
infrastructure (e.g., an energy grid or a supply chain). We map the two sides via blockchain
and control the internal data flow interactions via smart contracts by deep convolutional
neural network (DCNN) oriented game-theoretic pooling policies with symmetry or asymmetry
information, where federated learning algorithms with small data training are designed by mixed
zero-sum and non-zero-sum game-theoretic policies. Each zero-sum or non-zero-sum game is further
associated with two coupled utility-maximization and cost-minimization dual games with general
number of players. In formulating our generic model, there are three aspects: system hardware
modeling via quantum cloud-computing, system software modeling via blockchain, big data flow
modeling via general-dimensional stochastic models such as triply stochastic renewal reward
process driven stochastic networks (Refs. [3]-[4]). The focus of our study is on the interaction
and integration of the three aspects. When the quantum-computing is involved, we design a
quantum-computing chip by modeling it as a multi-input multi-output (MIMO) quantum channel as
in the MIMO wireless mobile computing (e.g., in 5G/6G). To capture our system's internal bit or
qubit data flow dynamics, we model it via a deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) with
generalized stochastic pooling in terms of resource-competition among different antennas and
quantum eigenmodes or users. The pooling is with two levels of competitions: the first one is on
users' selection in a "win-lose" manner; the second one is on resource-sharing among selected
users in a "win-win" manner. The effectiveness of our policies is proved by stochastic modeling
with theory and simulation examples. This project is innovative since our generic system is new,
our dynamic policy is new, and our big data flow modeling is new. Furthermore, as claimed by SIR
Forum, quantum computing and blockchain will be the core technology in the coming Sixth Industrial
Revolution (SIR). Thus, our generic model is important in modeling the quantum economic systems
that require synchronized multi-item services, e.g., the future Internet with blockchain
communication protocol and supply chain finance (e.g., assemble to order (ATO)) systems
(Refs. [3]-[4]). In addition, our model can also be implemented in the currently developing
cognitive radio, 5G/6G, internet of energy (IoE), FinTech, and health-care systems. Due to these
facts, Wanyang Dai was elected to be the (2019 and 2020) President & CEO of SIR Forum (Ref. [1])
and was honorably invited to be the keynote speakers of various IEEE and other international
conferences. His influential findings and inventions received various awards and were published
by well-known journals such as Operations Research, etc. (Refs. [3]-[5]).
Analytics Components
For the descriptive aspect, we have established a generic model to describe the quantum economical
systems (e.g. the future Internet with blockchain communication protocol and the generalized IoT system)
(Refs. [2]-[4]) with three aspects. For the predictive aspect, we have developed theory to effectively
justify our general-dimensional stochastic models to present the data flow dynamics in our generic model.
Based on these stochastic models, we have conducted numerical and statistical simulation to justify the
advantages of dynamical policies (Refs. [3]-[4]). For the prescriptive aspect, we model our system's
internal data flow dynamics via a DCNN with generalized stochastic pooling in terms of resource-competition
(Refs [3]-[5]) to realize smart contracts within a blockchain.
Conclusion
Our generic system model is important for modeling the future Internet with blockchain communication protocol
(Refs. [3]-[4]). It can also be implemented in the quickly developing cognitive radio, 5G/6G, IoE, FinTech,
supply chain, and health-care systems. Owing to these facts, Wanyang Dai was elected to be the (2019 and 2020)
President & CEO of SIR Forum (Ref. [1]) and was honorably invited to be the keynote speakers of various IEEE
and other international conferences such as 2017 IEEE 7TH International Conference on Power and Energy System
in Toronto, 2019 International Conference on Future Advancements of Mobile Cloud Computing and Applications
in Toronto, and 2020 IEEE International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Computer Engineering in
Beijing. Besides, he was also honorably invited to give guest speech in People's Bank of China concerning
FinTech and InsurTech.
