Abstract

The growing number of IoT devices generates a huge amount of data that are generally processed by the Cloud datacenter. However, it results in inordinate delay for time-critical applications due to network intricacies. Fog computing has evolved in recent which provides similar facilities as of Cloud though in a reduced manner. In order to provide the desired quality of service to the IoT users, it is essential to classify and allocate Fog-Cloud resources optimally to the time-critical requests. In this work, we have developed an analytical model focusing on the design mechanism approach and optimal policies for the allocation and offloading of real-time tasks that results in overall time minimization.
