Abstract:

Aiming at the problems of high-latency, high energy consumption, high bandwidth, and poor quality of experience (QoE) caused by emerging network media streaming business in mobile edge computing, a computing offloading algorithm based on QoE feedback configuration was proposed.Firstly, both preprocessing and priority were comprehensively considered to maximize network resource utilization.Meanwhile, different weights were assigned to the computation tasks for establishing a resource allocation relationship.Secondly, after comprehensively taking into account deadline, computing resource, power and bandwidth constraint, an QoE model was established where the optimization objective was the weighted sum of task delay, energy consumption and precision, and the method of Lagrange multipliers was utilized to solve the established model.Simulation results indicate that, compared with the deep reinforcement learning-based online offloading algorithm, the proposed algorithm can effectively optimize the resource allocation and better improve the QoE.

Key words: mobile edge computing, quality of experience, Lagrange multiplier method, network media streaming, com-puting offloading
