Research Area:  Edge Computing
Edge Computing, as a solution to leveraging computation capabilities at the edge of the network, is emerging. One key challenge for edge computing is offering its computing service with a low service blocking and low latency that otherwise translate to an inefficient deployment of a Edge computing system. Unlike cloud computing, the computing resources in edge computing are limited. One way to deal with this limitation is by enabling cooperation between data centers.
