Abstract:

In order to improve the resource utilization and service quality of the fog network,as well as ensure the reliability and security of heterogeneous fog nodes,a reasonable incentive mechanism was required.The introduction of incentive mechanism can effectively motivate the service enthusiasm of fog network equipment and reduce the malicious or selfish behavior of the equipment.Firstly,the research significance of the fog computing was proposed,and the characteristics as well as the application scenarios of fog networks were given.Secondly,the system architecture of the fog network was introduced.Then the incentive mechanism was integrated with the resource sensing technology and the task offloading technology in the fog network,and further examples were presented to show the important role of the incentive mechanism in the fog network.

Key words: fog network, resource sensing, task offloading, incentive mechanism
