Abstract

Edge computing systems enable data analytics applications at one-hop wireless distances from mobile devices. Enabling and using proximal mobile edge servers opportunistically for data analytics applications can minimize network latency, lower dependencies on Internet connectivity, and reduce the cost of using cloud services. This paper presents different experimental evaluations on the feasibility of opportunistic usage of mobile edge servers. The paper also highlights key challenges and future research directions.
