چکیده
Edge computing is rapidly evolving to alleviate latency, bandwidth and Quality-of-Service concerns of Cloud-based applications as billions of ‘things’ are integrated to the Internet [1].

Typically, Edge resources are configured in an ad hoc manner and an application or a collection of applications may privately make use of them. These resources are not publicly available, for example like Cloud resources. Additionally, Edge resources are not evenly distributed, but are sporadic in their geographic distribution.
