Recent Advances in Edge Computing Paradigms: Taxonomy Benchmarks and Standards for Unconventional Computing.

Edge computing is an exciting new approach to network architecture that helps organizations break beyond the limitations imposed by traditional cloud-based networks. It has emerged as a viable and important architecture that supports distributed computing to deploy compute and storage resources closer to the data source. Edge and fog computing addresses three principles of network limitations of bandwidth, latency, congestion, and reliability. The research community sees edge computing at manufacturing, farming, network optimization, workplace safety, improved healthcare, transportation, etc. The promise of this technology will be realized through addressing new research challenges in the IoT paradigm and the design of highly-efficient communication technology with minimum cost and effort.
