This paper considers the problem of service placement and task scheduling on a three-tiered edge-to-cloud platform when user requests must be met by a certain deadline. Time-sensitive applications (e.g., augmented reality, gaming, real-time video analysis) have tight constraints that must be met. With multiple possible computation centers, the where and when of solving these requests becomes paramount when meeting their deadlines. We formulate the problem of meeting users deadlines while minimizing the total cost of the edge-to-cloud service provider as an Integer Linear Programming (ILP) problem. We show the NP-hardness of this problem, and propose two heuristics based on making decisions on a local vs global scale. We vary the number of users, the QoS constraint, and the cost difference between remote cloud and cloudlets(edge clouds), and run multiple Monte-Carlo runs for each case. Our simulation results show that the proposed heuristics are performing close to optimal while reducing the complexity.

The popular federated edge learning (FEEL) framework allows privacy-preserving collaborative model training via frequent learning-updates exchange between edge devices and server. Due to the constrained bandwidth, only a subset of devices can upload
their updates at each communication round. This has led to an active research area in FEEL studying the optimal device scheduling policy for minimizing communication time. However, owing to the difficulty in quantifying the exact communication time, prior work in this area can only tackle the problem partially by considering either the communication rounds or per-round latency, while the total communication time is determined by both metrics. To close this gap, we make the first attempt in this paper to formulate and solve the communication time minimization problem. We first derive a tight bound to approximate the communication time through cross-disciplinary effort involving both learning theory for convergence analysis and communication theory for per-round latency analysis. Building on the analytical result, an optimized probabilistic scheduling policy is derived in closed-form by solving the approximate communication time minimization problem. It is found that the optimized policy gradually turns its priority from suppressing the remaining communication rounds to reducing per-round latency as the training process evolves. The effectiveness of the proposed scheme is demonstrated via a use case on collaborative 3D objective detection in autonomous driving.
With the proliferation of mobile applications, Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC) has been proposed to help mobile devices save energy and improve computation performance. To further improve the quality of service (QoS) of MCC, cloud servers can be deploye
d locally so that the latency is decreased. However, the computational resource of the local cloud is generally limited. In this paper, we design a threshold-based policy to improve the QoS of MCC by cooperation of the local cloud and Internet cloud resources, which takes the advantages of low latency of the local cloud and abundant computational resources of the Internet cloud simultaneously. This policy also applies a priority queue in terms of delay requirements of applications. The optimal thresholds depending on the traffic load is obtained via a proposed algorithm. Numerical results show that the QoS can be greatly enhanced with the assistance of Internet cloud when the local cloud is overloaded. Better QoS is achieved if the local cloud order tasks according to their delay requirements, where delay-sensitive applications are executed ahead of delay-tolerant applications. Moreover, the optimal thresholds of the policy have a sound impact on the QoS of the system.
We revisit the long-standing problem of providing network QoS to applications, and propose the concept of judicious QoS -- combining the cheaper, best effort IP service with the cloud, which offers a highly reliable infrastructure and the ability to
add in-network services, albeit at higher cost. Our proposed J-QoS framework offers a range of reliability services with different cost vs. delay trade-offs, including: i) a forwarding service that forwards packets over the cloud overlay, ii) a caching service, which stores packets inside the cloud and allows them to be pulled in case of packet loss or disruption on the Internet, and iii) a novel coding service that provides the least expensive packet recovery option by combining packets of multiple application streams and sending a small number of coded packets across the more expensive cloud paths. We demonstrate the feasibility of these services using measurements from RIPE Atlas and a live deployment on PlanetLab. We also consider case studies on how J-QoS works with services up and down the network stack, including Skype video conferencing, TCP-based web transfers, and cellular access networks.
Technical advances in ubiquitous sensing, embedded computing, and wireless communication are leading to a new generation of engineered systems called cyber-physical systems (CPS). CPS promises to transform the way we interact with the physical world
just as the Internet transformed how we interact with one another. Before this vision becomes a reality, however, a large number of challenges have to be addressed. Network quality of service (QoS) management in this new realm is among those issues that deserve extensive research efforts. It is envisioned that wireless sensor/actuator networks (WSANs) will play an essential role in CPS. This paper examines the main characteristics of WSANs and the requirements of QoS provisioning in the context of cyber-physical computing. Several research topics and challenges are identified. As a sample solution, a feedback scheduling framework is proposed to tackle some of the identified challenges. A simple example is also presented that illustrates the effectiveness of the proposed solution.
The vehicular ad-hoc network (VANET) based on dedicated short-range communication (DSRC) is a distributed communication system, in which all the nodes share the wireless channel with carrier sense multiple access/collision avoid (CSMA/CA) protocol. H
owever, the backoff mechanism of CSMA/CA in the channel contention might cause uncertain transmission delay and impede a certain quality of service (QoS) of applications. Moreover, there still exists a possibility of parlous data-packets collision, especially for broadcast or non-acknowledgement (NACK) transmissions. The original contributions of this paper are summarized as follows: (1) Model the packets collision probability of broadcast or NACK transmission in VANET with the combination theory and investigate the potential influence of miss my packets (MMP) problem. (2) Based on the software define vehicular network (SDVN) framework and QoS requirement, a novel link-level scheduling strategy, which determines the start-sending time for each connection, is proposed to maximize packets delivery ratio (PDR). Alternatively, maximizing PDR has been converted to the overlap minimization among transmission durations. (3) Meanwhile, an innovative transmission scheduling greedy search (TSGS) algorithm is originally proposed to mitigate computational complexity. Extensive simulations have been done in a unified platform Veins combining SUMO and OMNET++. And numerous results show that the proposed algorithm can effectively improve the PDR by at least 15%, enhance the collision-avoidance performance by almost 40%, and reduce the MMP ratio by about 3% compared with the random transmitting, meanwhile meet the QoS requirement.
