Surfing the SWAVES: Lifecycle-aware Service Placement in MEC
In Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) networks, users covered by a mobile network can exploit edge clouds (ECs), computational resources located at the network's edge, to execute virtual network functions (VNFs). ECs are particularly useful when deploying VNFs with strict delay and availability requirements. As users roam in the network and get handed over between cells, deployed VNFs must follow users to retain the benefits of edge computing. Yet, having VNFs ready at the closest EC can be chal…

Knowledge-Guided Attention-Inspired Learning for Task Offloading in Vehicle Edge Computing
Vehicle edge computing (VEC) brings abundant computing resources close to vehicles by deploying them at roadside units (RSUs) or base stations, thereby enabling diverse computation-intensive and delay sensitive applications. Existing task offloading strategies are often computationally expensive to execute or generate suboptimal solutions. In this paper, we propose a novel learning-based approach, Knowledge-guided Attention-inspired Task Offloading (KATO), designed to efficiently offload tasks …
