Title
A Run-time Dynamic Computation Offloading Strategy in Vehicular Edge Computing
Abstract
In vehicular edge computing (VEC), offloading the tasks to the nearby resource-rich edge servers helps each vehicle enhance computational capabilities and improve in-vehicle applications' performance. However, the concentration of travel at specific spaces and times poses significant challenges on the load-balancing and scheduling of computation tasks at the edge servers. This paper studies a low-complexity dynamic online offloading strategy that efficiently reduces task delay and computing resource consumption in the multi-user, multiserver vehicular edge computing scenarios. Our design addresses issues of computation task placement and execution order of the tasks on each server. We use a realistic approach that vehicles generate tasks over time, and the set of the tasks is unknown in advance so that the offloading decisions are made in run-time. Extensive simulations are conducted on a real mobility trace of Luxembourg city, and the results show that the proposed algorithm effectively improves the offloading utility of the system.
