Title
Cooperative Edge-Cloud Caching for Real-time Sensing Big Data Search in Vehicular Networks
Abstract
Real-time sensing data access is essential for vehicular networks to support safe, efficient, and intelligent road services. Considering the tremendous data volume, the sensing big data search process should be carefully devised to avoid excessive retrieval delay. Edge caching can effectively alleviate the traffic burden and shorten the data downloading route, where the sensing data has to be uploaded to the edge in advance. Given a short life-time of sensing data, the caching scheme is required to be efficient in facilitating both the search process and uplink/downlink transmission, which is challenging due to the coupling of resource allocation decisions. In this paper, an edge-cloud cooperative caching scheme is proposed. Specifically, to enable real-time data search, we first introduce a hierarchical indexing framework for cached data, based on which we then devise a search utility model to quantify the expected data freshness and response delay. Aiming at maximizing the search utility, a Caching-assisted Real-time Search (CRS) problem is formulated. Due to its NP-hardness, we devise a greedy-based algorithm to solve the CRS problem. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed cooperative caching scheme can significantly improve the data freshness and cache hit ratio comparing to the benchmark schemes.
