Abstract
A network device in a Multi-Access Edge Computing (MEC) cluster is configured to: receive, from a wireless station, information associated with a User Equipment (UE) device that is wirelessly attached to a network through the wireless station and estimate a first time interval to complete a task for the UE device based on the information. If the first time interval is less than a threshold time interval, the processor is to: signal, through the wireless station, to the UE device to be in a connected state; execute the task; and send a result of the execution, through the wireless station, to the UE device.
