Revolutionizing load harmony in edge computing networks with probabilistic cellular automata and Markov decision processes by Dinesh Sahu, Nidhi, Rajnish Chaturvedi, Shiv Prakash, Tiansheng Yang, Rajkumar Singh Rathore, Lu Wang, Sabeen Tahir, Sheikh Tahir Bakhsh

“…Taking advantage of the stochasticity of PCA classification our model describes interactions between neighboring nodes in terms of a local load thus allowing for a distributed, self-organizing approach to load balancing. The MDP framework then determines each node’s decision-making with the focus on load offloading policies that are aligned with rewards that promote per node balance and penalties for offloading a larger load than it can handle.These models are then incorporated into our proposed PCA-MDP system to achieve dynamic load balancing with low variability in resource usage among nodes. …”
