A Multi-Layer Collaboration Framework for Industrial Parks with 5G Vehicle-to-Everything Networks

The fifth-generation(5G)wireless communication networks are expected to play an essential role in the transformation of vertical industries.Among many exciting applications to be enabled by 5G,logistics tasks in industry parks can be performed more efficiently via vehicle-to-everything(V2X)communications.In this paper,a multi-layer collaboration framework enabled by V2X is proposed for logistics management in industrial parks.The proposed framework includes three layers:a perception and execution layer,a logistics layer,and a configuration layer.In addition to the collaboration among these three layers,this study addresses the collaboration among devices,edge servers,and cloud services.For effective logistics in industrial parks,task collaboration is achieved through four functions:environmental perception and map construction,task allocation,path planning,and vehicle movement.To dynamically coordinate these functions,device–edge–cloud collaboration,which is supported by 5G slices and V2X communication technology,is applied.Then,the analytical target cascading method is adopted to configure and evaluate the collaboration schemes of industrial parks.Finally,a logistics analytical case study in industrial parks is employed to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed collaboration framework.

A cloud-edge-device collaborative offloading scheme with heterogeneous tasks and its performance evaluation

How to collaboratively offload tasks between user devices,edge networks(ENs),and cloud data centers is an interesting and challenging research topic.In this paper,we investigate the offoading decision,analytical modeling,and system parameter optimization problem in a collaborative cloud-edge device environment,aiming to trade off different performance measures.According to the differentiated delay requirements of tasks,we classify the tasks into delay-sensitive and delay-tolerant tasks.To meet the delay requirements of delay-sensitive tasks and process as many delay-tolerant tasks as possible,we propose a cloud-edge device collaborative task offoading scheme,in which delay-sensitive and delay-tolerant tasks follow the access threshold policy and the loss policy,respectively.We establish a four-dimensional continuous-time Markov chain as the system model.By using the Gauss-Seidel method,we derive the stationary probability distribution of the system model.Accordingly,we present the blocking rate of delay-sensitive tasks and the average delay of these two types of tasks.Numerical experiments are conducted and analyzed to evaluate the system performance,and numerical simulations are presented to evaluate and validate the effectiveness of the proposed task offloading scheme.Finally,we optimize the access threshold in the EN buffer to obtain the minimum system cost with different proportions of delay-sensitive tasks.
