Optimal Task Allocation Algorithm Based on Queueing Theory for Future Internet Application in Mobile Edge Computing Platform
2022
Overview
For 5G and future Internet, in this paper, we propose a task allocation method for future Internet application to reduce the total latency in a mobile edge computing (MEC) platform with three types of servers: a dedicated MEC server, a shared MEC server, and a cloud server. For this platform, we first calculate the delay between sending a task and receiving a response for the dedicated MEC server, shared MEC server, and cloud server by considering the processing time and transmission delay. Here, the transmission delay for the shared MEC server is derived using queueing theory. Then, we formulate an optimization problem for task allocation to minimize the total latency for all tasks. By solving this optimization problem, tasks can be allocated to the MEC servers and cloud server appropriately. In addition, we propose a heuristic algorithm to obtain the approximate optimal solution in a shorter time. This heuristic algorithm consists of four algorithms: a main algorithm and three additional algorithms. In this algorithm, tasks are divided into two groups, and task allocation is executed for each group. We compare the performance of our proposed heuristic algorithm with the solution obtained by three other methods and investigate the effectiveness of our algorithm. Numerical examples are used to demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed heuristic algorithm. From some results, we observe that our proposed heuristic algorithm can perform task allocation in a short time and can effectively reduce the total latency in a short time. We conclude that our proposed heuristic algorithm is effective for task allocation in a MEC platform with multiple types of MEC servers.
