We have discussed the definition of edge computing and talked about its architecture and characteristics in last blog The Coming of Edge Computing. In this article, we will simply introduce three types of edge computing implementations: fog computing, mobile edge computing and cloudlet.
I、Fog Computing
The fog computing implementation is a decentralized computing infrastructure based on fog computing nodes composed of vary kinds of elements including but not limited to routers, switches, access points, IoT gateways as well as set-top boxes and placed at any point of the architecture between the end devices and the cloud [1].
雾计算是一种基于雾节点的去中心化计算架构,雾节点可以由多种元素构成,包括但不限于:路由器,交换机,网络接入点,物联网网关和机顶盒。这些节点可以被放置在end-cloud架构之间的任何位置。因为这
