The concept of the Metaverse has garnered growing interest from both academic and industry circles. The decentralization of both the integrity and security of digital items has spurred the popularity of play-to-earn (P2E) games, where…

Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) is an enabling technology to leverage new network applications, such as virtual/augmented reality, by providing faster task processing at the network edge. This is done by deploying servers closer to the…

We propose a novel strategy for energy-efficient dynamic computation offloading, in the context of edge-computing-aided beyond 5G networks. The goal is to minimize the energy consumption of the overall system, comprising multiple User…

Fog computing is transforming the network edge into an intelligent platform by bringing storage, computing, control, and networking functions closer to end-users, things, and sensors. How to allocate multiple resource types (e.g., CPU,…

With the development of the Internet of Things (IoT) and the birth of various new IoT devices, the capacity of massive IoT devices is facing challenges. Fortunately, edge computing can optimize problems such as delay and connectivity by…

Nowadays IoT applications consist of a collection of loosely coupled modules, namely microservices, that can be managed and placed in a heterogeneous environment consisting of private and public resources. It follows that distributing the…

Multi-access edge computing (MEC) is a promising architecture to provide low-latency applications for future Internet of Things (IoT)-based network systems. Together with the increasing scholarly attention on task offloading, the problem of…

This paper proposes a novel user cooperation approach in both computation and communication for mobile edge computing (MEC) systems to improve the energy efficiency for latency-constrained computation. We consider a basic three-node MEC…

In this paper we present a new competitive packet routing model with edge priorities. We consider players that route selfishly through a network over time and try to reach their destinations as fast as possible. If the number of players who…

Mobile-edge computation offloading (MECO) has been recognized as a promising solution to alleviate the burden of resource-limited Internet of Thing (IoT) devices by offloading computation tasks to the edge of cellular networks (also known…

In multi-rate IEEE 802.11 WLANs, the traditional user association based on the strongest received signal and the well known anomaly of the MAC protocol can lead to overloaded Access Points (APs), and poor or heterogeneous performance. Our…

Multi-access edge computing (MEC) aims to extend cloud service to the network edge to reduce network traffic and service latency. A fundamental problem in MEC is how to efficiently offload heterogeneous tasks of mobile applications from…

The (ultra-)dense deployment of small-cell base stations (SBSs) endowed with cloud-like computing functionalities paves the way for pervasive mobile edge computing (MEC), enabling ultra-low latency and location-awareness for a variety of…

We study the inefficiency of equilibria for various classes of games when players are (partially) altruistic. We model altruistic behavior by assuming that player i's perceived cost is a convex combination of 1-\alpha_i times his direct…

Mobile data traffic has been steadily rising in the past years. This has generated a significant interest in the deployment of incentive mechanisms to reduce peak-time congestion. Typically, the design of these mechanisms requires…

We study techniques to incentivize self-interested agents to form socially desirable solutions in scenarios where they benefit from mutual coordination. Towards this end, we consider coordination games where agents have different intrinsic…

The Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) paradigm has a lot of potential as a computing model for fog environments comprising both cloud and edge nodes. When the request rate exceeds capacity limits at the edge, some functions need to be offloaded…

A central challenge in using price signals to coordinate the electricity consumption of a group of users is the operator's lack of knowledge of the users due to privacy concerns. In this paper, we develop a two-time-scale incentive…

Exploiting quantum computing at the mobile edge holds immense potential for facilitating large-scale network design, processing multimodal data, optimizing resource management, and enhancing network security. In this paper, we propose a…

This paper considers a wireless powered multiuser mobile edge computing (MEC) system, where a multi-antenna access point (AP) employs the radio-frequency (RF) signal based wireless power transfer (WPT) to charge a number of distributed…
