Abstract

According to one aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a computer-implemented method for dynamically allocating edge computing resources. The method can include receiving, in an edge computing center, a request for using the edge computing resources to perform a secondary task for a secondary edge service, allocating the edge computing resources to the secondary edge service if the edge computing resources are available, and in response to an increase in a primary edge services workload, reallocating at least a portion of the edge computing resources from the secondary edge service to the primary edge services if the edge computing resources are insufficient for performing the primary edge services.
