Dynamic service migration strategy based on MDP model with multiple parameter in vehicular edge network
Abstract
To handle with the service interruption caused by vehicles’ mobility and limited service coverage of edge servers,a dynamic service migration algorithm based on multi-parameters Markov decision process (MDP) model was put forward for vehicular edge network,which was called as dynamic service migration algorithm based on multiple parameter (DSMMP).Combining delay,bandwidth,server capacity with vehicle motion information,DSMMP constructed a multi-parameters MDP revenue function to remedy the deficiency of distance-based schemes.By using vehicle motion and delay constraints,a candidate server set with several candidate servers was defined,and migration decision through long-term Bellman revenue values was made.In order to improve the dynamic adaptability of the proposed algorithm,the weight values were calculated and updated by leveraging historical information.Simulation results show that our strategy has a good performance in terms of delay,packet loss ratio and service migration times.
