Seamless Virtualized Controller Migration for Drone Applications
Namwon An, Seunghyun Yoon, Taejin Ha, Yohan Kim, Hyuk Lim · IEEE Internet Computing · 2018
We consider a virtualized edge-computing infrastructure for drone applications, in which a virtualized container running on an edge node controls drones, and a software-defined network provides a network connectivity between the drones and their virtualized controllers. We propose a seamless migration scheme that migrates a virtualized drone controller to an edge node that is close to its associated drone without suspending the drone control in the edge-computing infrastructure.
