Reliability Analysis of Edge Scenarios Using Pedestrian Mobility

Abstract

Edge computing is actively being adopted by various organizations and applications owing to its bandwidth saving and faster response times. However, this is accompanied by its own set of reliability issues and serves as an excellent target for optimizations and analysis. Our work analyzes the effect of mobile clients on task failure rates and proposes a low overhead location and network congestion aware optimization. In this paper, we discuss our motivations, provide details about the dataset, present some statistical analysis, and propose an improved mobile-side edge selection policy.
