边缘智能是IIoT的关键推动因素，因为它可以在生产环境附近提供智能云服务，具有低延迟和更低的成本。5G时代对无处不在的通信、计算和缓存资源的需求将导致将异构资源集成到边缘网络中的需求不断增长。此外，分布式边缘服务可能使资源交易容易受到恶意节点的攻击。在复杂的工业网络下确保边缘服务的安全是一个巨大的挑战。在本文中，我们提出了一个边缘智能和区块链授权的IIoT框架，它实现了灵活和安全的边缘服务管理。在此基础上，提出了一种基于跨域共享的边缘资源调度方案，并设计了一种区分信任度的边缘事务审批机制。数值结果表明，所提出的方案带来了显着的改善，在边缘服务成本和服务容量。
Edge intelligence is a key enabler for IIoT as it offers smart cloud services in close proximity to the production environment with low latency and less cost. The need for ubiquitous communication, computing, and caching resources in 5G beyond will lead to a growing demand to integrate heterogeneous resources into the edge network. Furthermore, distributed edge services can make resource transactions vulnerable to malicious nodes. Ensuring secure edge services under complex industrial networks is a big challenge. In this article, we present an edge intelligence and blockchain empowered IIoT framework, which achieves flexible and secure edge service management. Then we propose a cross-domain sharing inspired edge resource scheduling scheme and design a credit-differentiated edge transaction approval mechanism. Numerical results indicate that the proposed schemes bring significant improvement in both edge service cost and service capacities.
