The Internet of Things (IoT) has been increasingly used in our everyday lives as well as in numerous industrial applications. However, due to limitations in computing and power capabilities, IoT devices need to send their respective tasks…
Incorporating mobile edge computing (MEC) in the Internet of Things (IoT) enables resource-limited IoT devices to offload their computation tasks to a nearby edge server. In this paper, we investigate an IoT system assisted by the MEC…
Scientific workflow is a powerful tool to streamline and organize computational steps of scientific application. This paper presents Emerald, a system that adds sophisticated cloud offloading capabilities to scientific workflows. Emerald…
Mobile apps are predominantly integrated with cloud services to benefit from enhanced functionalities. Adopting authentication using secrets such as API keys is crucial to ensure secure mobile-cloud interactions. However, developers often…
Future 6 G networks are envisioned as a network of networks (NoN) ecosystem, integrating communication and computing resources across multiple domains. At the deep edge, IoT and end-user devices will form subnetworks for local communication…
In this paper, we consider a system model in conjunction with two major technologies in 5G communications, i.e., mobile edge computing and spectrum sharing. An IoT network, which does not have access to any licensed spectrum, carries its…
Application development in the Internet of Things (IoT) is challenging because it involves dealing with a wide range of related issues such as lack of separation of concerns, and lack of high-level of abstractions to address both the large…
With the mass deployment of computing-intensive applications and delay-sensitive applications on end devices, only adequate computing resources can meet differentiated services' delay requirements. By offloading tasks to cloud servers or…
The increasing use of Internet of Things (IoT) devices generates a greater demand for data transfers and puts increased pressure on networks. Additionally, connectivity to cloud services can be costly and inefficient. Fog computing provides…
This paper argues for an accelerator development toolchain that takes into account the whole system containing the accelerator. With whole-system visibility, the toolchain can better assist accelerator scoping and composition in the context…
In this paper, we consider a task offloading problem in a multi-access edge computing (MEC) network, in which edge users can either use their local processing unit to compute their tasks or offload their tasks to a nearby edge server…
Mobile augmented reality (MAR) blends a real scenario with overlaid virtual content, which has been envisioned as one of the ubiquitous interfaces to the Metaverse. Due to the limited computing power and battery life of MAR devices, it is…
Device-to-Device (D2D) communications can offload the traffic and boost the throughput of cellular networks. By caching files at users, content delivery traffic can be offloaded via D2D links, if a helper user are willing to send the cached…
With the rapid development of connecting massive devices to the Internet, especially for remote areas without cellular network infrastructures, space-air-ground integrated networks (SAGINs) emerge and offload computation-intensive tasks. In…
Deep learning has shown its power in many applications, including object detection in images, natural-language understanding, and speech recognition. To make it more accessible to end users, many deep learning models are now embedded in…
Energy harvesting offers an attractive and promising mechanism to power low-energy devices. However, it alone is insufficient to enable an energy-neutral operation, which can eliminate tedious battery charging and replacement requirements.…
Executing distributed cyber-physical software processes on edge devices that maintains the resiliency of the overall system while adhering to resource constraints is quite a challenging trade-off to consider for developers. Current…
We consider a mobile cloud computing system with multiple users, a remote cloud server, and a computing access point (CAP). The CAP serves both as the network access gateway and a computation service provider to the mobile users. It can…
Offloading traffic through opportunistic communications has been recently proposed as a way to relieve the current overload of cellular networks. Opportunistic communication can occur when mobile device users are (temporarily) in each…
Load management is being recognized as an important option for active user participation in the energy market. Traditional load management methods usually require a centralized powerful control center and a two-way communication network…
