The share raw data among IoT devices is not enough to gain the MEIoT architecture brings computing and storage resources close to Internet of Things (IoT) devices in order to speed up IoT data sharing and analytics. insight behind the big IoT data; the insight is more valuable Specifically, the IoT devices (belonging to the same user) are associated to for the society as a whole. Thus, it is beneficial to provision a specific proxy Virtual Machine (VM) in the nearby cloudlet.

Moreover, we introduce the semantic and social IoT technology in the context of MEIoT to solve the interoperability and inefficient access big IoT raw data streams by applying various types of data control problem in the IoT system. In addition, we propose two dynamic mining and machine learning methods [3]. The data center proxy VM migration methods to minimize the end-to-end delay between infrastructure has been demonstrated to provision resources proxy VMs and their IoT devices and to minimize the total on-grid energy flexibly and efficiently [4]; meanwhile, various parallel com- consumption of the cloudlets, respectively.

Cox Victor Bahl An abstract of a dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Computer Science in the Graduate School of Duke University 2012 Copyright c 2012 by Justin G. Manweiler All rights reserved Abstract In our homes and in the enterprise, in our leisure and in our professions, mobile computing is no longer merely “exciting;” it is becoming an essential, ubiquitous tool of the modern world. New and innovative mobile applications continue to inform, entertain, and surprise users. But, to make the daily use of mobile technologies more gratifying and worthwhile, we must move forward with new levels of sophistication. The Mobile App Stores of the future must be built on stronger foundations. This dissertation considers a broad view of the challenges and intuitions behind a diverse selection of such new primitives. Some of these primitives will mitigate exist- ing and fundamental challenges of mobile computing, especially relating to wireless communication. Others will take an application-driven approach, being designed to serve a novel purpose, and be adapted to the unique and varied challenges from their disparate domains.

Mobile Edge Computing: Architecture, Use-cases, Applications Craig Pritchard, Yousef Beheshti, Mohammad Sepahi Abstract| By enormous growth in IoT and smart devices and the ad- vent of many new applications, Internet traffic volume has been grow- ing exponentially. Analyzing such flooding traffic requires enormous compute and bandwidth and raises privacy concerns. Edge platforms can become the tool to ease the burden by bringing resources to the proximity of data. Therefore, new architectures, which bring network functions and contents to the network edge, are proposed, i.e., mobile edge computing and caching. In this survey, we make an exhaustive review on the literature research efforts on mobile edge networks. We give an overview of mobile edge networks, including definition, archi- tecture, and application and use-cases . We then survey the issues related to computing, caching, and communication techniques at the network edge with the focus on applications and use cases of mobile edge networks.

In fact, without mobile edge computing, 5G would need to rely upon back-haul to centralized cloud resource for storage and computing, diminishing much of the otherwise positive impact of latency reduction enabled by 5G. • Mobile Edge Computing a Must for Private Wireless Networks: Enterprise and industrial segments will continue to deploy private networks utilizing LTE and WiFi. Many of these networks will evolve to 5G and include edge computing to maximize overall throughput and minimize latency, which will be crucial for certain critical communications solutions such as industrial process automation. • Combined 5G and Edge Solutions: A variety of enhanced services and new apps will be enabled, many of which will be directly or indirectly involved with smart cities, intelligent buildings, and smart homes and workplaces. Key 5G and MEC supported applications for business will be IoT connectivity, SMB/corporate mobility, and fixed wireless.

  • The Role of Virtualization in the Small Cell Enabled Mobile Edge Computing Ecosystem
    The Role of Virtualization in the Small Cell Enabled Mobile Edge Computing Ecosystem Leonardo Goratti1, C.E. Costa1(&), Jordi Perez-Romero2, P.S. Khodashenas3, Alan Whitehead4, and Ioannis Chochliouros5 1 CREATE-NET, Via alla Cascata 56/D, Trento, Italy [email protected] 2 Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya (UPC), Barcelona, Spain 3 i2CAT, Barcelona, Spain 4 IP.Access, Cambourne, UK 5 Hellenic Telecommunications Organization (OTE), Marousi, Greece Abstract. Virtualisation is playing a fundamental role in the evolution of telecommunication services and infrastructures, bringing to rethink some of the traditional design paradigms of the mobile network and enabling those func- tionalities necessary for supporting new complex ecosystems where multiple actors can participate in a dynamic and secure environment. In Small Cell enabled Mobile Edge Computing deployments, the impact of virtualization technologies is significant in two main aspects: the design and deployment of the telecommuni- cation infrastructure, and the delivery of edge services. Besides, the adoption of virtualization technologies has implications also in the implementation of Self Organizing Network (SON) services and in the enforcement of Service Level Agreement (SLA) policies, both critical in the automation of the delivery of multi-tenant oriented services in such complex infrastructure. From the work performed by the H2020 SESAME project, the beneficial use of virtualization techniques emerges in adding network intelligence and services in the network edge. SESAME relays on virtualization for providing Small Cell as a Service (SCaaS) and per operator Edge Computing services, consolidating the emerging multi-tenancy driven design paradigms in communication infrastructures. Keywords: NFV Small Cell Virtualization 5G Á Á Á 1 Introduction Virtualization technologies decouple software from physical infrastructure, and create virtual resources dedicated to distinct services.

It also targets at presenting in a harmonized way the architectural concepts developed in various projects and initiatives (not limited to 5G PPP projects only) so as to provide a consolidated view on the technical directions for the architecture design in the 5G era. The first version of the white paper was released in July 2016, which captured novel trends and key technological enablers for the realization of the 5G architecture vision along with harmonized architectural concepts from 5G PPP Phase 1 projects and initiatives. Capitalizing on the architectural vision and framework set by the first version of the white paper, the Version 2.0 of the white paper was released in January 2018 and presented the latest findings and analyses of 5G PPP Phase I projects along with the concept evaluations. The work has continued with the 5G PPP Phase II and Phase III projects with special focus on understanding the requirements from vertical industries involved in the projects and then driving the required enhancements of the 5G Architecture able to meet their requirements. The results of the Working Group are now captured in this Version 3.0, which presents the consolidated European view on the architecture design.
