Abstract With the rapid growth in the availability of digital health-related data, there is a great demand for the utilization of intelligent information systems within the healthcare sector. These systems can manage and manipulate this massive amount of health-related data and encourage different decision-making tasks. They can also provide various sustainable health services such as medical error reduction, diagnosis acceleration, and clinical services quality improvement. The intensive care unit (ICU) is one of the most important hospital units. However, there are limited rooms and resources in most hospitals. During times of seasonal diseases and pandemics, ICUs face high admission demand. In… More >

Abstract Recently, computation offloading has become an effective method for overcoming the constraint of a mobile device (MD) using computation-intensive mobile and offloading delay-sensitive application tasks to the remote cloud-based data center. Smart city benefitted from offloading to edge point. Consider a mobile edge computing (MEC) network in multiple regions. They comprise N MDs and many access points, in which every MD has M independent real-time tasks. This study designs a new Task Offloading and Resource Allocation in IoT-based MEC using Deep Learning with Seagull Optimization (TORA-DLSGO) algorithm. The proposed TORA-DLSGO technique addresses the resource management issue in the MEC server,… More >

Abstract The tremendous advancement in distributed computing and Internet of Things (IoT) applications has resulted in the adoption of fog computing as today’s widely used framework complementing cloud computing. Thus, suitable and effective applications could be performed to satisfy the applications’ latency requirement. Resource allocation techniques are essential aspects of fog networks which prevent unbalanced load distribution. Effective resource management techniques can improve the quality of service metrics. Due to the limited and heterogeneous resources available within the fog infrastructure, the fog layer’s resources need to be optimised to efficiently manage and distribute them to different applications within the IoT network.… More >

Abstract Mobile edge cloud networks can be used to offload computationally intensive tasks from Internet of Things (IoT) devices to nearby mobile edge servers, thereby lowering energy consumption and response time for ground mobile users or IoT devices. Integration of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) and the mobile edge computing (MEC) server will significantly benefit small, battery-powered, and energy-constrained devices in 5G and future wireless networks. We address the problem of maximising computation efficiency in U-MEC networks by optimising the user association and offloading indicator (OI), the computational capacity (CC), the power consumption, the time duration, and the optimal location planning simultaneously.… More >

Abstract Edge computing is a cloud computing extension where physical computers are installed closer to the device to minimize latency. The task of edge data centers is to include a growing abundance of applications with a small capability in comparison to conventional data centers. Under this framework, Federated Learning was suggested to offer distributed data training strategies by the coordination of many mobile devices for the training of a popular Artificial Intelligence (AI) model without actually revealing the underlying data, which is significantly enhanced in terms of privacy. Federated learning (FL) is a recently developed decentralized profound learning methodology, where customers… More >

Abstract In recent times, internet of things (IoT) applications on the cloud might not be the effective solution for every IoT scenario, particularly for time sensitive applications. A significant alternative to use is edge computing that resolves the problem of requiring high bandwidth by end devices. Edge computing is considered a method of forwarding the processing and communication resources in the cloud towards the edge. One of the considerations of the edge computing environment is resource management that involves resource scheduling, load balancing, task scheduling, and quality of service (QoS) to accomplish improved performance. With this motivation, this paper presents new… More >

Abstract In cloud environment, an efficient resource management establishes the allocation of computational resources of cloud service providers to the requests of users for meeting the user’s demands. The proficient resource management and work allocation determines the accomplishment of the cloud infrastructure. However, it is very difficult to persuade the objectives of the Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) and end users in an impulsive cloud domain with random changes of workloads, huge resource availability and complicated service policies to handle them, With that note, this paper attempts to present an Efficient Energy-Aware Resource Management Model (EEARMM) that works in a decentralized manner.… More >

Abstract In recent years, the significant growth in the Internet of Things (IoT) technology has brought a lot of attention to information and communication industry. Various IoT paradigms like the Internet of Vehicle Things (IoVT) and the Internet of Health Things (IoHT) create massive volumes of data every day which consume a lot of bandwidth and storage. However, to process such large volumes of data, the existing cloud computing platforms offer limited resources due to their distance from IoT devices. Consequently, cloud-computing systems produce intolerable latency problems for latency-sensitive real-time applications. Therefore, a new paradigm called fog computing makes use of… More >

Abstract With the continuous evolution of smart grid and global energy interconnection technology, amount of intelligent terminals have been connected to power grid, which can be used for providing resource services as edge nodes. Traditional cloud computing can be used to provide storage services and task computing services in the power grid, but it faces challenges such as resource bottlenecks, time delays, and limited network bandwidth resources. Edge computing is an effective supplement for cloud computing, because it can provide users with local computing services with lower latency. However, because the resources in a single edge node are limited, resource-intensive tasks… More >
