A Study of Mobile Edge Computing for IOT

Abstract

Edge computing is a decentralized way of computation and storing data near to the edge performing device so that necessary physical proximity can be provided to the device and the computational data produced by that device. Previous works were focused on work in relation to Edge Computing for several anonymous sectors. Edge computing developed with the growth of various IoT devices which are present in connection with the internet for give and take of data from the cloud. In case of Edge computing data is now not needed to be directly transmit to the cloud. It is only needed to be sent to the cloud after much of its processing at the edge only. Therefore the better processing of the edge requires regular efficient improvements in the parameters which are concerned with the improved functioning of the edge devices. In this paper, we have studied existing architectures of edge computing within the IOT and Mobile edge computing to throw light on various issues like Network bandwidth capacity, throughput, response time, resource utilization, cost, execution time, energy consumption, scalability, reliability, availability etc which can be further improved for efficiency in edge computing.
