• Abstract: The Circular Economy (CE) is regarded as a solution to the environmental crisis. However, mainstream CE measures skirt around challenging the ethos of ever-increasing economic growth, overlooking social impacts and under-representing solutions such as reducing overall consumption. Circular Societies (CS) address these concerns by challenging this ethos. They emphasize ground-up social reorganization,address over-consumption through sufficiency strategies, and highlight the need for considering the complex inter-dependencies between nature, society, and technology on local, regional and global levels. However, no blueprint exists for forming CSs. An initial objective of my thesis is exploring existing social-network ontologies and developing a broadly applicable model for CSs. Since ground-up social reorganization on local, regional, and global levels has compounding effects on network complexities,a technological framework digitizing these inter-dependencies is necessary. Finally, adhering to CS principles of transparency and democratization, a system of trust is necessary to achieve collaborative consensus of the network state.

  The forthcoming generation of wireless technology, 6G, promises a revolutionary leap beyond traditional data-centric services. It aims to usher in an era of ubiquitous intelligent services, where everything is interconnected and intelligent. Existing techniques like integrated communication and computation (ICC), integrated sensing and computation (ISC), and integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) have made partial strides in addressing this challenge. This paper begins with a comprehensive survey of historic and related techniques such as ICC, ISC, and ISAC, highlighting their strengths and limitations. It then explores the state-of-the-art signal designs for
