Dynamic placement of services at the edge

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapter

Abstract

To realize the promise of low-latency service access in edge computing, the services need to be placed in close proximity to users. As a user moves, its service may need to be migrated to a new location. In this chapter, we first formulate this migration decision-making problem as a Markov decision process (MDP). Then, by analyzing the characteristics of this MDP, we provide efficient ways of obtaining the near-optimal policy for service migration. Finally, we discuss some practical aspects and present results from trace-driven simulation.
