Abstract:
Fog computing is a decentralized computing architecture that brings computing resources and services closer to the edge of the network. It is situated between data-generating devices and the cloud, and is capable of performing functions such as computing, storing, and networking. Fog computing is distinguished from cloud computing by its decentralized nature and flexibility, and offers benefits such as reduced latency, increased reliability, reduced operational costs, increased security, and improved business responsiveness. Some potential applications of fog computing include smart cities, smart grids, and smart homes. In order to evaluate the performance of fog computing, a group of simulators will be selected based on technical features and training resources.
