Keynote speech 3: QoS-aware deployment of Fog applications

摘要

Deploying composite applications over Fog infrastructures is challenging due to the heterogeneity and scale of such infrastructures. Application components must be provided with the software and hardware capabilities they need, while communications should meet the desired QoS (e.g., latency and bandwidth). On the other hand, different Fog and Cloud nodes provide different software and hardware capabilities, and actual communication links support different QoS over time. In this talk we will discuss some of the problems of determining how to “best” deploy composite applications over Fog infrastructures, and the benefits of automated tools capable of supporting human-driven application management at the edge.
