Abstract:

In order to cope with the dynamic changes of the offloading environment for computing resource-intensive and separable tasks in Internet of vehicle and deal with the problem that different collaborative nodes had different communication and computing resources, a distributed offloading strategy that multiple collaborative nodes had serial offloading mode and parallel computing mode in vehicle to everything (V2X) scenario was proposed.Utilizing the predictable motion trajectories of vehicle, the tasks were split into unequal parts, finally each part was computed on itself, mobile edge server, and vehicles in parallel.Then an optimization problem of the system time delay minimization was established.To solve the optimization problem, an offloading scheme based on the game theory was designed to determine the serial offloading execution order of the cooperative nodes.Considering the dynamic characteristics of Internet of vehicles, a sequential quadratic programming (SQP) algorithm was adopted to optimally split tasks.Finally, the simulation results show that the proposed strategy can effectively reduce system delay, and when multiple cooperative nodes offload in parallel, the proposed strategy can still maintain the stable system performance under the different parameter conditions.

Key words: edge computing, predictable trajectory, unequal splitting of tasks, distributed offloading
