传感和通信技术的进步使海洋研究中的新兴应用成为可能。然而，严格的资源限制阻碍了海事设备上的本地任务处理。基于云的任务卸载也是不可行的，因为卫星链路引起的成本难以承受。在这项工作中，我们提出了一个有远见的架构软件定义的海上雾计算（SD-MFC），它采用雾计算提供本地化的服务，并使用软件定义的网络技术，以提供抽象的底层资源。在SD-MFC中，沿海基础设施和大型船舶变成海上雾节点，以处理周围海事设备产生的任务。通过对真实船舶轨迹数据集的探索，验证了所提出的SD-MFC的可行性和有效性。
Advances in sensing and communication technologies have enabled emerging applications in ocean research. The stringent resource limitations, however, hinder local task processing on maritime devices. Cloud-based task offloading is also not feasible due to the unaffordable costs induced by satellite links. In this work, we propose a visionary architecture on software-defined maritime fog computing (SD-MFC), which adopts fog computing to provide localized services and uses software-defined networking technology to provide the abstraction of underlying resources. In SD-MFC, coastal infrastructures and large-size vessels are turned into maritime fog nodes to process the tasks generated by surrounding maritime devices. By exploration of a real-world vessel trajectory dataset, the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed SD-MFC are verified.
