A New Approach on Task Offloading Scheduling for Application of Mobile Edge Computing

In mobile edge computing(MEC), application partitioning can split the executions into local and edge server parts. Optimal partitioning will allow mobile devices to obtain the highest benefit from Mobile Edge Computing (MEC). In this paper, a new approach on task offloading scheduling for application of mobile edge computing is proposed. We divide the computing task into several subtasks. Then, we analyze the overhead of the system, and propose a fine-grained strategy for task scheduling and offloading in a multi-user MEC system. For reducing the energy consumption and delay, the computation offloading is considered as a constrained multi-objective optimization problem (CMOP), which can be solved by an improved NSGA-II algorithm. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can find a large number of optimal solutions to adjust the corresponding offloading decision according to the real-world situation.
