Cognitive network channel allocation method based on the queuing delay and game analysis by Jun LIU, Xiu-feng XIE

“…A new dynamic spectrum allocation method for distributed cognitive radio networks was proposed.In the method,packet transmission success rate is chosen as the utility function,the transmission delay is resolved by the priority queuing model,and the user’s channel allocation strategy is achieved by distributed game.Compared with other algorithms,the policy iteration process is improved effectively,and a dynamic strategy adjustment step is adopted.Each network user dynamically adjust their channel choose strategy based on current perception of the remaining user’s strategy.The proposed algorithm lets channel selection strategy converge more quickly to equilibrium point,and effectively suppresses the policy shocks.The simulation results validate the proposed algorithm.…”

Multi-constrained trusted cooperative task migration strategy for edge computing by Guangxue YUE, Yasheng DAI, Xiaohui YANG, Youkang ZHU, Zhenxu YOU, Jiansheng LIU

“…In order to guarantee the quality of service of edge computing,a trusted cooperative task distribution strategy for edge computing under multi-dimensional constraints was proposed.The strategy was based on the task requirements,and the edge computing collaborative service leader node organizes the coordinated service alliance members.The priority of cooperative service alliance was determined based on the K-dimension weight index of user task migration.Using the load balancing of the members as the adaptive function,the task allocation and dispatch of alliance members were performed by greedy algorithm.The backup node was selected based on routing piggyback,and the priority of migration was evaluated.The scheduling and migration of collaborative services in case of abnormal collaborative services were realized,which improved the quality of service of edge computing task migration and ensured the reliability of task migration.The simulation results show that the mechanism can effectively complete the task distribution and migration scheduling,improve the collaborative efficiency of edge computing,and guarantee the quality of network service.…”
