New Agentic AI Framework Promises Faster Development of Next Generation Wireless Networks
Researchers at Northeastern University’s Institute for Intelligent Networked Systems developed GENESIS, an agentic AI framework led by College of Engineering Professor Tommaso Melodia that autonomously writes, tests, and debugs code to dramatically accelerate the development of next-generation telecommunications systems like 6G.

This self-programming AI system could get you through traffic more quickly
Northeastern researchers develop an AI system called GENESIS that takes humans out of the programming equation.
Remote mountains or deserts far from cities are notorious for being off the cellular grid. But in the near future, cellphones could work in those places.
In addition, cars could get you out of traffic jams quicker by connecting to sensors placed around the city that alert drivers to trouble on the road. That could be thanks to, in part, a new thinking and code-writing agentic Artificial Intelligence framework developed at Northeastern University.
It’s called GENESIS, and it’s a new, self-driven AI framework developed at the university’s Institute for Intelligent Networked Systems, where researchers have been working on various projects geared toward the telecommunications industry since 2019. The new program could go into commercial use as soon as later this year, according to the institute’s director Tommaso Melodia, a professor at the university’s College of Engineering.
The GENESIS agentic AI framework can take a researcher’s concept from the drawing board, then he or she types it into the computer in natural language and GENESIS writes the code. What’s different is that on its own, the AI system tests and retests the code it wrote, stamping out software bugs and producing a working program very fast.
