Edge computing in IoT: preliminary results on modeling and performance analysis
Santrauka
Edge computing, the subsidiary model of Cloud computing, is aiming to push computational resources closer to the edge of network. Its objectives are to improve network latency and ensure efficiency of performed tasks. However Internet of Things (IoT) devices usually are of limited processing power or/and connecting to network episodically, mostly due to power saving necessity and mobility. Thus in the paper investigation of the performance of edge computing for IoT is presented. Multiple simulations by EdgeNetworkCloudSim of different topologies, their parameters, together with considered IoT device primary limitations, are carried out. Simulation results confirm the specificity of edge computations for IoT and gives some practical insights.
