Edge Computing Technology: Development and Countermeasures
Edge computing is an emerging technology that reduces transmission delays and bandwidth consumption by placing com-puting, storage, bandwidth, applications, and other resources on the edge of the network. Moreover, application developers and content providers can provide perceptible services based on real-time network information. Mobile terminals, Internet of things, and other devices provide the necessary front-end support for computing sensitive applications, such as image recognition and network games, to share the cloud work load with the processing capability of edge computing. This paper discusses the concept of edge computing, key problems that require solutions, main advances in edge computing, influence of edge computing developments, and opportunities and development countermeasures of edge calculation.
