Actions at the Edge: Jointly Optimizing the Resources in Multi-Access Edge Computing

Multi-access edge computing (MEC) is an emerging paradigm that pushes resources for sensing, communications, computing, storage, and intelligence to the premises closer end users (i.e., edge) so they can leverage nearby rich improve their quality of experience. Due growing applications targeted at intelligentizing life-sustaining cyber-physical systems, this has become a hot research topic, particularly when MEC utilized provide real-time processing control. This article elaborates issues along line, including basic concepts performance metrics, killer applications, architectural design, modeling approaches solutions, future directions. It hoped provides quick introduction fruitful area, beginning researchers.
