Multi-Access Edge Computing Assisted Mobile Ad-hoc Cloud

Bhuchhada, Jay Kumar 05 September 2019 (has links)
Mobile Ad-hoc Cloud offers users the capability to offload intensive tasks on a cloud composed of voluntary mobile devices. Due to the availability of these devices in the proximity, intensive tasks can be processed locally. In addition, the literature referred to in the text, distinguishes a specific class of application to be well addressed when processed at the user level. However, due to lack of commitment, mobility, and unpredictability of the mobile devices, providing a rich ad-hoc cloud service is challenging. Furthermore, the resource availability of these devices impacts the service offered to the requester. As a result, this thesis aims to address the challenges mentioned above. With the support of Multi-Access Edge Computing, a mobile ad-hoc Infrastructure as a Service composition framework is proposed. An ad-hoc application server is designed to operate over the MEC platform to compose and manage the mobile ad-hoc cloud. The server uses the information provided by the MEC services to compose volunteer resources for a given request. As well, a heuristic approach for a multi-dimensional bin packing technique is considered, while extending the Euclidean distance for sub-tasks selection. In addition, to address the lack of resource availability, an architecture for MAC using SDN is proposed. The logically centralized controller works with the application server to migrate requests seamlessly from one region to another. Inspired by the benefits of the MEC, a mobility mechanism is introduced to address the movement of the participants. Finally, based on the evaluation, it was observed that the proposed MAC framework not only provided better use of resources but also provided a consisted and scalable service.
