DEW: A New Edge Computing Component for Distributed Dynamic Networks
Giorgiana Cristescu, Radu Dobrescu, Oana Chenaru, Gheorghe G. Florea · 2019
The paper proposes the introduction of a new component in the family of distributed computer networks, with specific functions for edge computing devices. The DEW component is a network layer located between Fog and Edge, a position currently attributed to the Mist concept. Specifically, DEW is designed as a Mist counterpart that can be used in Distributed Dynamical Networks (DDN). The DEW characteristics and the associated specific algorithms are discussed on a particular type of DDN - microgrids and microgrids clusters.
