- Abstract summary: 5G and Beyond networks require more complex learning agents and the learning process itself might end up competing with users for communication and computational resources.
This creates friction: on the one hand, the learning process needs resources to quickly convergence to an effective strategy; on the other hand, the learning process needs to be efficient, i.e. take as few resources as possible from the user's data plane, so as not to throttle users' resources.
In this paper, we propose a dynamic strategy to balance the resources assigned to the data plane and those reserved for learning.

- Abstract: In the past few years, DRL has become a valuable solution to automatically
learn efficient resource management strategies in complex networks with
time-varying statistics. However, the increased complexity of 5G and Beyond
networks requires correspondingly more complex learning agents and the learning
process itself might end up competing with users for communication and
computational resources. This creates friction: on the one hand, the learning
process needs resources to quickly convergence to an effective strategy; on the
other hand, the learning process needs to be efficient, i.e., take as few
resources as possible from the user's data plane, so as not to throttle users'
QoS. In this paper, we investigate this trade-off and propose a dynamic
strategy to balance the resources assigned to the data plane and those reserved
for learning. With the proposed approach, a learning agent can quickly converge
to an efficient resource allocation strategy and adapt to changes in the
environment as for the CL paradigm, while minimizing the impact on the users'
QoS. Simulation results show that the proposed method outperforms static
allocation methods with minimal learning overhead, almost reaching the
performance of an ideal out-of-band CL solution.

Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) has become a valuable solution to automatically learn efficient resource management strategies in complex networks.
In many scenarios, the learning task is performed in the Cloud, while experience samples are generated directly by edge nodes or users.
This creates a friction between the need to speed up convergence towards an effective strategy, which requires the allocation of resources to transmit learning samples.
We propose a dynamic balancing strategy between the learning and data planes, which allows the centralized learning agent to quickly converge to an efficient resource allocation strategy.
