Scheduling vehicle task offloading and triggering a backoff period

Abstract

System, methods, and other embodiments described herein relate to improving scheduling of computing tasks in a mobile environment for a vehicle. In one embodiment, a method includes receiving an offloading request associated with a computing task from the vehicle, wherein the offloading request includes context information and a task descriptor related to the computing task. The method also includes scheduling the computing task to execute on a server if the context information and the task descriptor satisfy criteria for using computing resources associated with the server for the vehicle. The method also includes partitioning the computing task into subtasks if the context information satisfies the criteria. A machine learning module may decide partitions of the computing task according to the context information. The method also includes sending a scheduling signal including a scheduling message to the vehicle and the scheduling message includes scheduling information and task partition information associated with offloading the subtasks.
