“…Other specific sectors of activity where 5G is considered to be a key enabling technology are healthcare, the automation of vehicles, industrial manufacturing, logistics and smart farms (Anwar and Prasad 2018). In addition, the increased speed and the lower latency will support more efficient data transmission through improved network coverage and capacity, and thus will foster the efficiency of tools, such as augmented reality, and many other activities and personal experiences that need strong data transmission that were limited by insufficient speed, stability and latency with 4G (Hsieh, 2018;Chang, 2019).…”

The Robert Schuman Centre for Advanced Studies, created in 1992 and currently directed by Professor Brigid Laffan, aims to develop inter-disciplinary and comparative research on the major issues facing the process of European integration, European societies and Europe's place in 21 st century global politics. The Centre is home to a large post-doctoral programme and hosts major research programmes, projects and data sets, in addition to a range of working groups and ad hoc initiatives. The research agenda is organised around a set of core themes and is continuously evolving, reflecting the changing agenda of European integration, the expanding membership of the European Union, developments in Europe's neighbourhood and the wider world.

From a global perspective, an Internet of Vehicles task offloading solution based on mobile edge computing is proposed, which satisfies the application requirements (high reliability) strictly. The average time for completing a task can be minimized with the reasonable task offloading solution. Firstly, we model the wireless network, the transmission time and the movement of vehicles. Besides, heterogeneous wireless network architecture is adopted, data centers are deployed at Small-cell Base Stations, Macro-cell Base Stations and Internet. Then considering the limitedness, heterogeneity and task diversity of resources, we utilize matching model based on combination auction to design the offloading model. Furthermore, the multi-round sequential combination auction mechanism is proposed, which equals the matching problem to the multi-dimensional grouping knapsack problem and uses dynamic programming to get the optimal match. This solution is based on virtual machine technology and voltage scaling technology in the task execution time model. Moreover, the computing resources can be measured by CPU frequency. We propose an optimization problem for the shortest average task completion time with limited resources. Finally, the effects of these parameters (such as the number of tasks per unit time, the amount of data offloaded and the number of CPU cycles) on the task execution efficiency are analyzed and compared with other algorithms by simulation experiments. Compared to existing schemes, simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can reduce system overhead and shorten task execution time effectively.

“…To provide services, satellites need to access ground computing centers to transmit data, which takes up a large amount of bandwidth and causes a high delay. In order to solve the delay problems, the ground 5G network uses Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) to place part of the computing resources at the edge of the network, which can effectively save bandwidth and reduce delay [12,13,14,15,16]. Considering the low latency requirements of 5G networks and the limited bandwidth resources of satellite networks, in this paper we propose a 5G Satellite edge computing framework (5GsatEC).…”

As outlined in the 3Gpp Release 16, 5G satellite access is important for 5G network development in the future. A terrestrial-satellite network integrated with 5G has the characteristics of low delay, high bandwidth, and ubiquitous coverage. A few researchers have proposed integrated schemes for such a network; however, these schemes do not consider the possibility of achieving optimization of the delay characteristic by changing the computing mode of the 5G satellite network. We propose a 5G satellite edge computing framework (5GsatEC), which aims to reduce delay and expand network coverage. This framework consists of embedded hardware platforms and edge computing microservices in satellites. To increase the flexibility of the framework in complex scenarios, we unify the resource management of the central processing unit (CPU), graphics processing unit (GPU), and field-programmable gate array (FPGA); we divide the services into three types: system services, basic services, and user services. In order to verify the performance of the framework, we carried out a series of experiments. The results show that 5GsatEC has a broader coverage than the ground 5G network. The results also show that 5GsatEC has lower delay, a lower packet loss rate, and lower bandwidth consumption than the 5G satellite network.
