Offloading Algorithm for Edge Computing Tasks Based on Energy Optimization

Abstract

Current research in computation offloading encompasses various aspects, including task partitioning and allocation, resource management, communication, and data management. This paper focuses on developing new algorithms and techniques to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of the offloading process while addressing challenges arising from dynamic and heterogeneous mobile environments. Researchers are also examining the trade-off between offloading benefits like improved performance and energy efficiency, and the associated overhead costs such as communication and data management. This paper proposes an optimization strategy for computational offloading to enhance the Grey Wolf algorithm. The solution aims to quickly optimize system energy consumption while considering the arithmetic power constraint of the mobile edge computing server and time delay constraints. Simulation experiments demonstrate that the algorithm in this paper significantly outperforms the traditional Grey Wolf and PSO algorithms in terms of both performance and computational speed.
