Abstract:
The rapidly increasing number of mobile devices and resource-intensive applications poses substantial obstacles to traditional centralized mobile cloud computing, resulting in increased latency and decreased service quality. Edge computing, which places server capabilities at access nodes, provides a promising solution to the aforementioned issues. However, maintaining operational edge service nodes at each access node can be costly and inefficient. We propose and evaluate a scheme that combines a heuristic service node selection algorithm with machine learning based computational load prediction, with the goal of minimizing latency and balancing load among service nodes. Simulation experiments demonstrate that the proposed scheme substantially enhances system performance, paving the way for a more efficient and responsive edge network infrastructure, particularly in 5G and 6G mobile communication environments.
