Abstract
Systems and methods for maintaining a service session in an automotive edge computing environment are disclosed herein. One embodiment computes a first estimation result pertaining to computation resources of a current edge server with which a vehicle is in communication; computes a second estimation result pertaining to link quality; computes a third estimation result pertaining to service quality; compares the first, second, and third estimation results with first, second, and third predetermined thresholds, respectively; selects a new edge server with which to maintain the service session and initiates a service migration request, when the first predetermined threshold is triggered; initiates a wireless access handover request, when only the second predetermined threshold is triggered; and selects a new edge server with which to maintain the service session and initiates a service migration request, when only the third predetermined threshold is triggered and one of two predetermined conditions is met.
