Abstract
In 6G and future networks, joint optimization of communication and computational resources lays the foundation for various delay-sensitive intelligent IoT services in the fog computing architecture. In this paper, we present a multi-device collaborative computing architecture in the cell association environment to accelerate the processing procedure of data generated by smart IoT devices. In this scenario, a two-tier task scheduling scheme and an uplink and downlink power allocation factor are jointly optimized to reduce the data processing delay and improve fairness among different users, which is in nature a hard problem due to a series of non-convex constraints. To make the problem tractable, the problem is transformed into a smooth non-convex problem with the introduction of auxiliary variables and then decoupled into two subproblems based on the data transmission and processing procedure. Thereafter, different methods such as Successive Convex Approximation (SCA) and Block Successive Upperbound Minimization (BSUM) are employed to reconstruct several upper-bound convex optimization subproblems. Besides, a fast 0–1 binary offloading scheme is proposed based on the original algorithm. Finally, the simulation results depict the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms in detail, and the scalability of the system is also examined.
