A new edge computing based cloud system for iot applications

Abstract

The mobile internet and the internet of things (IoT) has emerged out with various applications were centralized cloud computing has faced several challenges over the past years. Challenges include high latency and low Spectral Efficiency. Nevertheless, these challenges can be faced using a novel technology which is now emerging out as a major trending technology that supersedes centralized cloud computing with edge devices of networks. Well, this technology will reduce the latency and will enhance spectral efficiency and will also support massive machine types of communication. A detailed description of this trending technology deals with mobile edge computing, cloudlets and fog computing. In addition, the functioning process of each computing technology is also included. The different characteristics of mobile edge computing and fog computing have been focused. However the most significant part of how these technologies work under the discussion of telecommunication network is also briefly explained.
