Edge server placement in mobile edge computing

Abstract

Abstract With the rapid increase in the development of the Internet of Things and 5G networks in the smart city context, a large amount of data (i.e., big data) is expected to be generated, resulting in increased latency for the traditional cloud computing paradigm. To reduce the latency, mobile edge computing has been considered for offloading a part of the workload from mobile devices to nearby edge servers that have sufficient computation resources. Although there has been significant research in the field of mobile edge computing, little attention has been given to understanding the placement of edge servers in smart cities to optimize the mobile edge computing network performance. In this paper, we study the edge server placement problem in mobile edge computing environments for smart cities. First, we formulate the problem as a multi-objective constraint optimization problem that places edge servers in some strategic locations with the objective to make balance the workloads of edge servers and minimize the access delay between the mobile user and edge server. Then, we adopt mixed integer programming to find the optimal solution. Experimental results based on Shanghai Telecom’s base station dataset show that our approach outperforms several representative approaches in terms of access delay and workload balancing.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
