Abstract: As the result of Open Edge Computing (OEC) project, cloudlet embodies the middle layer of edge computing architecture. Due to the close deployment to the user side, responding to user requests through cloudlet can reduce delay, improve security, and reduce bandwidth occupancy. In order to improve the quality of user experience, more and more cloudlets need to be deployed, which makes the deployment and management costs of Clouldlet service Providers (CLP) significantly increased. Therefore, the cloudlet federation appears as a new paradigm that can reduce the cost of cloudlet deployment and management by sharing cloudlet resources among CLPs. Facing the cloudlet federation scenario, more attention still needs to be paid to the heterogeneity of resource prices, the balance of benefits among CLPs, and the more complex delay computation when exploring task migration strategies. For delay-sensitive and delay-tolerance tasks, a delay-aware and profit-maximizing task migration strategy is proposed considering the relationship between the delay and the quotation of different tasks, as well as the dynamic pricing mechanism when resources are shared among CLPs. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms the baseline algorithm in terms of revenue and response delay.

Keywords: Cloudlet federation; task migration; delay-aware; dynamic pricing; profit-maximizing; edge computing
