Abstract

Systems and methods described herein relate to managing an automotive edge computing environment. One embodiment receives current status information from one or more edge servers; receives and queues requested computing tasks from one or more connected vehicles; selects, as an optimization trigger number N, a largest number of requested computing tasks for which an optimization process can be completed within a time, per requested computing task, that is less than an average time gap between the requested computing tasks; performs the optimization process when a number of queued requested computing tasks exceeds the optimization trigger number N, wherein the optimization process produces an updated data transfer schedule and an updated data process schedule for N queued requested computing tasks; and transmits the updated data transfer schedule and the updated data process schedule to the one or more edge servers and the one or more connected vehicles.
