Chapters will be published in the book series EAI/Springer Innovations in Communications and Computing
Introduction
Edge computing is an emerging computing paradigm that plays its complimentary role in optimizing cloud computing by performing data processing at the edge of the network, near the source of the data. As the computation and the communication process of heterogeneity hidden networks involve intelligent decision making, the edge computing approach is bridged as a key challenge for next generation communiction/computing paradigms in the literature
In this book, we aim at providing the reader with an insight overview of what is going on the Edge Computing/Mobile Edge Computing in terms of communication protocols and related up to date applications and Architectures.
