Scheduling Dependent Tasks in Edge Networks
Mohammed Maray, Arshad Jhumka, Adam P. Chester, Mohamed Younis · 2019
In this paper, we focus on the problem of offloading of jobs composed of dependent tasks in a mobile edge network (MEN). We formalise the problem and develop a heuristic lower the completion time of a job executing in MEN than when executing on a mobile device. We show the viability of the heuristic through our simulation results.
