Abstract

The present disclosure relates to an online task dispatching and scheduling system. The system includes an end device; an access point (AP) configured to receive a task from the end device; one or more edge servers configured to receive the task from the AP, the one or more edge servers including a task waiting queue, a processing pool, a task completion queue, and a scheduler, wherein the AP further includes a dispatcher utilizing Online Learning (OL) for determining a real-time state of network conditions and server loads; and the AP selects a target edge server from the one or more edge servers to which the task is to be dispatched; and wherein the scheduler utilizes Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) in generating a task scheduling policy for the one or more edge servers.
