Abstract
A system and method for operating an edge compute advisory system comprising a network adapter to receive a compute work request from a client device seeking edge computing resources of a mobile edge computing system, wherein the compute work request includes processing resource requirements to meet the compute work request. A processor to determine a plurality of mobile edge computing systems within a neighborhood range of an estimated client device location, and the network adapter to receive advertisement messages indicating availability of the plurality of mobile edge computing systems and including an address location for secured historical compute trust references for each advertising mobile edge computing system. The processor executing machine readable executable code instructions of the edge compute advisory system to access and receive the historical trust references for a plurality of candidate mobile edge computing resources accessible to the client device location, and determine an optimal candidate mobile edge computing resources partner from among the plurality of candidate mobile edge computing systems based on a minimal level of trust category or rating for the mob…
