Matching Based Intelligent Edge Resource Allocation

With the rapid development of the Internet of Things, multi-access edge computing (MEC) has emerged as a key technique and intelligent edge resource allocation has become one of the important research issues in MEC. In this paper, we utilize advantages of matching game to integrate users’ needs and the position of edge computing nodes in IoT networks. The proposed GS-based two-sided matching approach simulates the competition and negotiation relationship between different user sets in IoT edge nodes, and provides feasible options based on the preference between different entities. Simulations show that it not only solves the problem of edge resource allocation in a semi-distributed manner, but also effectively improves SP’s revenue.
