In this work, we address the problem of service pricing competition in Internet-of-Vehicle (IoV) networks where multiple service providers compete with each other to offer vehicular services to users. We first introduce IoV networks and then develop an economic model for the competitive pricing problem among service providers through using the Bertrand game model. With the Bertrand game, we find the...
The emergence of mobile cloud computing enables mobile users to offload applications to nearby mobile resource-rich devices (i.e., cloudlets) to reduce energy consumption and improve performance. However, due to mobility and cloudlet capacity, the connections between a mobile user and mobile cloudlets can be intermittent. As a result, offloading actions taken by the mobile user may fail (e.g., the...
The emergence of mobile cloud computing enables mobile users to dynamically offload applications to nearby mobile resource-rich devices (i.e., cloudlets) to reduce energy consumption and improve execution efficiency. However, due to mobility, the connections between a mobile user and mobile cloudlets can be intermittent. As a result, offloading actions taken by a mobile user may fail (e.g., the user...
We consider an admission control problem and adaptive resource allocation for running mobile applications on a cloudlet. We formulate an optimization problem for dynamic resource sharing of mobile users in mobile cloud computing (MCC) hotspot with a cloudlet as a semi-Markov decision process (SMDP). SMDP is transformed into a linear programming (LP) model and it is solved to obtain an optimal solution...
