Fuzzy inference rule based task offloading model (FI-RBTOM) for edge computing

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: The key objective of edge computing is to reduce delays and provide consumers with high-quality services. However, there are certain challenges, such as high user mobility and the dynamic environments created by IoT devices. Additionally, the limitations of constrained device resources impede effective task completion. The challenge of task offloading plays a crucial role as one of the key challenges for edge computing, which is addressed in this research. An efficient rule-based task-offloading model (FI-RBTOM) is proposed in this context. The key decision of the proposed model is to choose either the task to be offloaded over an edge server or the cloud server or it can be processed over a local node. The four important input parameters are bandwidth, CPU utilization, task length, and task size. The proposed (FI-RBTOM), simulation is carried out using MATLAB (fuzzy logic) tool with 75% training and 25% testing with an overall error rate of 0.39875 is achieved.
