Claims

C1strongest claim

Experiments using real air-to-ground measurements show that the framework consistently outperforms fixed compositions, achieving lower latency, fewer SLA violations, and smoother adaptation as load and swarm size increase.

C2weakest assumption

The queuing-theory-based heuristic accurately captures the dynamics of drone-to-device and drone-to-drone interactions under varying loads, and the enforcement module can reconfigure the swarm with negligible overhead and without violating other constraints.

C3one line summary

SNaaS is a drone-swarm service framework that composes atomic services into end-to-end connectivity using direct, clustered, or parallel strategies selected by a queuing heuristic, outperforming fixed setups in latency and SLA compliance.
