Abstract

Edge computing brings storage and compute resources down to the edge of the network. Users can offload latency-sensitive and compute-intensive applications to the edge server for execution, thereby reducing latency and energy consumption. Existing task offload studies often fall short. The first point is that the existing research on task offloading often overlooks the heterogeneity of offloading tasks. The second point is that the default edge server caching service can meet the long-term service needs of users. However, different tasks require different services to provide execution environments. And the finite resources of edge servers can only deploy a small number of services. Therefore, to minimize latency and energy consumption(i. e. cost), this article proposed a heterogeneous task offloading method that combined service updates and cloud edge collaboration. The method consisted two following main parts. The first part was an improved page replacement algorithm. The algorithm could predict the potential user service demand and updated the service of the edge server in time. The second part was the collaboration between the cloud-side ends, offloading tasks through collaboration and keeping minimum total costs. Finally, it conducted thorough experiments using real datasets. The experimental results show that the proposed method can reduce the total cost by 7% to 16% compared to the comparison methods.
