Abstract
Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are provided for enabling a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) to participate in multi-access edge computing (MEC) services. The WTRU may be a constrained WTRU, for example, in terms of computation, storage, and/or networking resources available to the WTRU. A function may be implemented on the WTRU to expose an interface to a MEC application on the WTRU, through which the MEC application may register with a network device such as an MEC host located at the edge of a mobile communication network and join an MEC service provided by the MEC host. A transport may be established between the WTRU and the MEC host to facilitate provision of the MEC service, and the transport may be modified and/or deleted, for example, based on mobility events at the WTRU and/or load conditions of the WTRU.
