Optimal Control Selection over the Edge-Cloud Continuum
Year: 2025
Type: preprint
Abstract: The emerging computing continuum paves the way for exploiting multiple computing devices, ranging from the edge to the cloud, to implement the control algorithm. Different computing units over the continuum are characterized by different computational capabilities and communication latencies, thus resulting in different control performances and advocating for an effective trade-off. To this end, in this work, we first introduce a multi-tiered controller and we propose a simple network delay compensator. Then we propose a control selection policy to optimize the control cost taking into account the delay and the disturbances. We theoretically investigate the stability of the switching system resulting from the proposed control selection policy. Accurate simulations show the improvements of the considered setup.
