Learning Multi-paths for Edge Networks in a Stochastic Approximation Approach

摘要

Millions of edge devices are now equipped with increasingly strong computing, communication and storage capabilities. It is beneficial to connect these edge devices into networks for sharing different network service workloads so that these services are close to end-users and achieve reduced network access delay. In this paper, we proposed a measurement-assisted learning algorithm to find efficient multi paths between edge nodes with the assistance of intermediate nodes serving as an edge layer for reduced delay in edge networks in a stochastic approximation approach. Our simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed learning algorithm.
