An Extensible and Reliable Edge Computing Platform

边缘计算沿着5G的快速发展，将大量物联网（IoT）设备和联网自动驾驶汽车（CAV）带入日常生活。为了实现L5自动驾驶的最终目标，CAV装载了最先进的硬件，这些硬件将作为边缘计算的一部分贡献计算资源。要实现这一目标，会出现许多挑战，包括资源分配、可靠性、安全性和移动性。我们的目标是设计和实现一个满足边缘计算要求的系统，同时满足移动性和安全性限制。具体来说，我们提出了一个可扩展的和可靠的边缘计算平台，利用现代轻量级编排框架来扩展数据处理能力的需求。计费、激励分配和信誉系统也建立在区块链技术上，以协调多方并满足安全要求。

The fast pace of edge computing along with 5G is bringing massive number of Internet-of-things (IoT) devices and connected automated vehicles (CAVs) to everyday life. For the ultimate goal of L5 autonomous driving, CAVs are loaded with state-of-the-art hardware which will contribute computing resources as part of edge computing. A number of challenges emerge to achieve this, including resource allocation, reliability, security, and mobility. Our goal is to design and implement a system that meets the requirements of edge computing with mobility and security constraints. Specifically, we propose an extensible and reliable edge computing platform by leveraging modern lightweight orchestration frameworks to extend the data processing capabilities on demand. Billing, incentive allocation, and reputation systems are also built on blockchain technology to coordinate multiple parties and satisfy security requirements.
