Abstract
A Mobile-Assisted edge computing framework including: one or more requests to be processed; an operator configured to assign the one or more requests to a static edge node; and a cloud configured to cache and pre-fetch services for the one or more requests; wherein the one or more requests include handled requests and unhandled requests, the static edge node is configured to process the handled requests, and one or more mobile edge nodes are configured to process the unhandled requests; and wherein the static edge node is configured to auction the unhandled requests to the one or more mobile edge nodes, the auction including: generating a candidate set of the one or more mobile edge nodes; assigning an unhandled request to a target mobile edge node of the candidate set; and processing the unhandled request via the target mobile edge node.
