METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SELECTING A TARGET EDGE APPLICATION SERVER IN AN EDGE COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT

摘要

The present disclosure relates to a communication method and system for converging a 5th-Generation (5G) communication system for supporting higher data rates beyond a 4th-Generation (4G) system with a technology for Internet of Things (IoT). The present disclosure may be applied to intelligent services based on the 5G communication technology and the IoT-related technology, such as smart home, smart building, smart city, smart car, connected car, health care, digital education, smart retail, security and safety services. A method performed by a source edge enabler server for selecting a target edge application server in an edge computing system for a user equipment (UE) is provided.
