Abstract

In an approach to managing transmission frequency for a plurality of edge devices of an interconnected distributed network, one or more computer processors determine a maximum writing frequency, MWF, for the interconnected distributed network; iteratively process values of data flow writing frequency, DFWF, for a plurality of edge devices of an interconnected distributed network in accordance with an optimization algorithm based on the MWF to identify a convergence in the values of DFWF, wherein each iteration of processing values comprises, at each edge device in the plurality of edge devices, determine a value of DFWF based on an associated utility function of the respective edge device, wherein the utility function is a measure of utility of the device as a function of DFWF; responsive to identifying convergence, determine the converged values of DFWF to be optimal values of DFWF for the plurality of edge devices.
