Fog Computing

T he Internet has witnessed two radical changes in the past decade: rapidly growing cloud computing and pervasive mobile devices. Motivated by these two trends, a plethora of research has been conducted to support mobile cloud computing, which bridges the cloud and mobile devices by leveraging both the powerful computing capability of the cloud and the mobility support of mobile devices. Much o...

Connecting Fog and Cloud Computing

Feasibility of Fog Computing

As billions of devices get connected to the Internet, it will not be sustainable to use the cloud as a centralised server. The way forward is to decentralise computations away from the cloud towards the edge of the network closer to the user. This reduces the latency of communication between a user device and the cloud, and is the premise of ‘fog computing’ defined in this paper. The aim of thi...
