Mobile Edge compute

The edge technology is recent and addresses the proximity problems of mobile systems. In the automotive field, the notion of edge is going to overthrow the new services that are today too latent because of remote internet access. In this context, I participate in the development of a model that allows to verify the characteristics and behaviors of mobility through edge node.

A recent LAAS-CNRS demo is presented at ICSOC 2018 :  http://web.science.mq.edu.au/~qsheng/icsoc2018/index.html


Architecture model

The architecture is composed of:
- three POPs (point of presence),
- three OPENSIPS presence server,
- three edge node (Docker container),
-  Smart car driven by the edge.

A vehicle circulates between these three zones and connects to the different servers in order to know: connection points, services (services goes from one edge to another). The vehicle is equipped with a camera for the detection of possible dangers, here we simulate a pedestrian crossing.

This demo "Paving the Way for Autonomous Cars in the City of Tomorrow: A Prototype for Mobile Devices Support at the Edges of 5G Network" won the best demo award at the International conference on Service Oriented Computing (ICSOC 2018, prestigious conference of rank which took place in Hangzhou China from November 12 to 15, 2018 - http://portal.core.edu.au/conf-ranks/?search=icsoc&by=all&source=CORE2020&sort=atitle&page=1
