Abstract
- In this paper, we propose a novel algorithm for energy-efficient low-latency dynamic mobile edge computing (MEC), in the context of beyond 5G networks endowed with reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs). We consider a scenario where new computing requests are continuously generated by a set of devices and are handled through a dynamic queueing system. Building on stochastic optimization tools, we devise a dynamic learning algorithm that jointly optimizes the allocation of radio resources (i.e., power, transmission rates, sleep mode and duty cycle), computation resources (i.e., CPU cycles), and RIS reflectivity parameters (i.e., phase shifts), while guaranteeing a target performance in terms of average end-to-end delay. The proposed strategy enables dynamic control of the system, performing a low-complexity optimization on a per-slot basis while dealing with time-varying radio channels and task arrivals, whose statistics are unknown. The presence and optimization of RISs helps boosting the performance of dynamic MEC, thanks to the capability to shape and adapt the wireless propagation environment. Numerical results assess the performance in terms of service delay, learning, and adaptation capabilities of the proposed strategy for RIS-empowered MEC. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
