Performance research of edge computing nodes based on heterogeneous environment

Abstract

Abstract Edge computing realizes real-time parallel storage and computing in a distributed way, which can reduce the data transmission cost. The edge nodes, which are composed of different heterogeneous physical devices and hardware resources, assume the computing and storage capacity of the edge network. At present, the resource characteristics and performance of heterogeneous edge nodes are difficult to characterize. Therefore, a resource-aware performance feature detection model for heterogeneous edge compute nodes is proposed in this study. This model is based on a resource utilization matrix and resource relative performance quantization algorithm to extract the performance characteristics of the same type of resources of the edge nodes, to realize multi-dimensional and systematic feature detection and description of heterogeneous edge nodes. On this basis, a weight-based edge node task scheduling algorithm is designed. The final verification results show that the CPU relative performance ratios of Node 1-Node 2, Node 1-Node 3, and Node 2-Node 3 are 6.23, 3.81, and 0.81 respectively. The performance relationship among the three nodes is Node 1> Node 3> Node 2. The test group and the verification group tend to be consistent overall. This method has a good application prospect.
