Description

User allocation method with low time cost in edge environment
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of user allocation optimization, and particularly relates to a low-time-cost user allocation method in a marginal environment.
Background
In recent years, the number of cloud and mobile network connection terminal devices (including mobile phones, wearable devices, sensors, and a wide range of internet of things devices) has increased dramatically, and due to the limited computing power and battery power of mobile and internet of things devices, their computing tasks are often offloaded to servers of cloud application providers. However, as the number of mobile and internet of things devices grows exponentially, cloud computing becomes increasingly difficult to handle the huge workload and network congestion. This makes it difficult to provide low latency and reliable connections to end users, especially those who wish to obtain real-time responses from applications.
To address this problem, edge computing, often referred to as mobile edge computing, MEC, or multiple access edge computing, provides execution resources (computation and storage) for applications, and the network is close to the end user, often inside or at the border of the operator's network, is proposed as a new distributed computing paradigm.
The edge infrastructure may be managed or hosted by a communication service provider or other type of service provider. Some use cases require different applications to be deployed at different sites. In such a scenario, a distributed cloud is very useful, which can be seen as an execution environment for applications on multiple sites, including connectivity managed as a solution. The primary benefits provided by edge computing solutions include low latency, high bandwidth, device processing and data offloading, and trusted computing and storage. In the edge environment, each base station is equipped with a certain amount of computing resources, allowing mobile users to be provided with computing power at the internet access level.
However, while edge computing provides new opportunities, it also presents many new challenges, such as edge user allocation issues, with edge servers as intermediate provisioning stations with limited computing resources.
The terminal user is changed from a data consumer to a data generator and a data consumer, a large amount of data interacts with the cloud, so that delay and reliability are difficult, the cloud server cannot well meet the requirements of the user, the edge server is close to the edge side of the user, reliability and delay are guaranteed, but limited resources of the edge server cannot accommodate and allocate a large number of users, and therefore a reasonable allocation strategy is needed to guarantee maximization of resource utilization; there are studies to guarantee the resource utilization rate by adjusting the deployment position of the edge server, which have disadvantages in that the maximization of the allocated users cannot be guaranteed, and studies to improve the resource utilization rate while guaranteeing the maximization of the allocated users, but cannot achieve the optimization in terms of time cost. The coverage and resource amount of the edge server are limited, and the geographic positions of the users are randomly distributed, so that it is difficult to ensure that the users are most distributed and the time cost is lowest.
At present, two difficulties exist in the user allocation method in the edge environment:
firstly, edge servers and users are in a one-to-many relationship, the selection of the users by one edge server affects the overall user allocation effect, particularly, under the condition that the size of users with limited resources is large, the residual resources of some servers are less, the resource requirements of users in all coverage ranges cannot be met, selective allocation is needed under the condition that resource constraint conditions are met, the resource requirements of some users are larger, and the influence on other users is reduced as much as possible in the allocation process;
secondly, when enough users are distributed, the requirement of minimum time cost, different architectures of edge servers, different calculation speeds and the highest calculation speed of the edge service cannot be met, and all the users cannot be distributed under the constraints of coverage and resources; under the condition of limited resources, the edge server distributed to more users may not have the fastest calculation speed, and the edge server distributed with the fastest calculation speed may have lower total time cost than the edge server distributed with a plurality of users; .
Disclosure of Invention
The purpose of the invention is as follows: the invention aims to solve the defects in the prior art, and provides a low-time-cost user allocation method in an edge environment, which can obtain an optimal user allocation strategy with lower time cost under the conditions of limited edge server resources and limited edge server signal coverage area, reduce the time cost of a user in an edge computing environment, meet the requirement of low time cost for executing tasks at the edge side of the user, and reduce the cost of an APP service provider.

Comparing, the time cost is low, the time cost is high when replacing, if the time cost is equal or the time cost of the new distribution strategy is higher, whether the distribution strategy is updated or not is selected according to the corresponding probability P, and therefore the local optimal solution can be skipped out with a certain probability;

Further, the step (1) of the edge server sjIs calculated at a speed of
Figure BDA0003354776480000056
The computing speed of the cloud server is fcloud,
Figure BDA0003354776480000057
because the allocation policy maker needs to obtain the resource demand of the user and the resource size of the edge server at the same time, and the processing speeds of the two servers are different,
Figure BDA0003354776480000058
the processing speed of the cloud server is the fastest, but the time cost of data transmission distributed to a cloud end by a user is higher due to the fact that the cloud server is far away from the user, the time cost is increased due to transmission quality and the like, and the data transmission time cost between the edge server and the user can be ignored due to the fact that the edge server is close to the user side on the network edge side.
Further, a in the step (3)ijThe distribution strategy of the user is represented, the value is 0 or 1, 0 represents that the user is distributed to the cloud, and 1 representsSubscriber allocation to edge servers sj(ii) a Namely:
Figure BDA0003354776480000061
for any allocation policy a ═ aij(ii) a i ∈ {1, …, n }, j ∈ {1, …, m } }, all must satisfy the constraint
Figure BDA0003354776480000062
That is, the edge server and the users are in a one-to-many relationship, one edge server can be allocated with a plurality of users, and one user can be allocated to only one edge server;
corresponding coverage constraint and resource limitation constraint must be satisfied in the process of allocating servers by a user, only an edge server which covers the user and has enough resources can become an alternative server of the user, and a final allocation strategy must satisfy that the sum of the resource requirements of each type of the users allocated to the edge server is smaller than the size of the residual resources of the edge server;
wherein the coverage constraint is:

the resource limitation constraint is:

Figure BDA0003354776480000067
further, the specific process of generating the new allocation policy in step (4) is as follows:
randomly selecting a user, and then changing and adjusting the user UselectIf the other alternative edge servers of the user meet the constraint conditions, the user is allocated to a certain alternative server, otherwise, an alternative server is randomly selected, the user allocated on the server is allocated to the other alternative servers until the server meets the constraint conditions for allocating the selected user, the selected user is allocated to the server, and whether the original edge server of the selected user can reallocate other unallocated users is judged;
wherein, Uselect=Random({ui,i∈[1,n]});
YselectFor user uiThe number of alternative servers of (a); then:

in the above formula, Yselect>There are two cases to consider when 1, one is the reselected server snewResource can be allocated to user UselectIn this case the allocation policy can be adjusted directly and the edge server s before the change checkedoldWhether other unassigned users can be reassigned; alternatively, s isnewHas not been allocated to the user U enoughselectThis is the need to hold snewThe user on the upper allocation withdraws e users and releases the resources until there are enough resources to allocate the user UselectNamely:

UselectIs assigned to the network
Figure BDA0003354776480000073
The value of (a) becomes 0 and,
Figure BDA0003354776480000074
becomes 1, i.e. user uiBy distribution to edge servers soldBecomes distributed to the edge server snew(ii) a Other users who change the policy may change the value of the decision variable accordingly.
Further, the step (6) generates a new distribution strategy and judges whether updating of the current distribution strategy is performed through an inner LOOP, LIMIT and OUT LOOP return to an initial value when the new distribution strategy directly replaces the current strategy, LIMIT is decreased by 1 when the current distribution strategy is not directly replaced, OUT LOOP is decreased by 1 when LIMIT is equal to 0, IN LOOP is decreased by 1 each time of the inner LOOP, and initial temperature of the outer LOOP is decreased by INIT _ TEM × RATE each time, and the outer LOOP is not ended until INIT _ TEM is less than or equal to finan _ TEM or the number of outer LOOPs is used up;
wherein, whether to terminate the circulation is judged by adopting the following formula;
Figure BDA0003354776480000075
ending the segmentation iteration may also be decided, for example, by i ≧ 5.
Furthermore, after the outer loop is finished in the step (7), the best allocation strategy at the beginning of the outer loop and the best allocation strategy generated when the inner loop is finished at this time need to be judged, so that the best allocation strategy becomes the best allocation strategy of the outer loop at the next time, iteration is performed again, the inner loop is updated until the outer loop is finished, and the best allocation strategy is finally output; the best allocation strategy after each segmentation iteration is the initial allocation strategy of the next segmentation iteration; where he decides whether the allocation strategy is good or bad by the overall time cost.
Has the advantages that: compared with the prior art, the invention has the following advantages:
(1) whether an initial allocation strategy is generated or a new allocation strategy is generated by adjusting on the basis of the initial allocation strategy, corresponding coverage constraint and resource constraint need to be met in the allocation process, the difficulty of problems is increased through the coverage constraint and the resource constraint, and the task completion quality of feasibility of user allocation is ensured through the corresponding coverage constraint and the resource constraint, so that the final allocation strategy must meet constraint conditions, the setting of initial iteration parameters is reasonable, and the larger the initial iteration parameters are, the more the iteration times are, the better the iteration times are.
(2) Under the condition that the resources of the edge server are limited, the invention can meet the requirements of users, greatly reduce the total time cost and greatly improve the resource utilization rate. The distribution strategy is continuously updated in an iteration mode to jump out of the local optimal distribution strategy in a probability mode, the distribution strategy close to the optimal is obtained, the distribution strategy which is finally output is irrelevant to the input initial distribution strategy, meanwhile, the distribution strategy has asymptotic convergence, and the distribution strategy is a global optimization method which converges on the global optimal solution with certain probability.

Examples
The present invention is further explained below with reference to simulation results.
Through experimental simulation, the final total time cost of each distribution method is counted by comparing the distribution strategies formulated by the random distribution users and the greedy method with the conventional VSVSVPP algorithm.
As shown in fig. 4, in this embodiment, the number of edge servers is set to be 100, the number of users is continuously increased under the condition that the resource amount is not changed, along with the increase of users, the scale of users is larger and larger, the resources of the edge servers are more and more limited relative to the users, and the difficulty of making a good allocation strategy is also larger and larger.
As shown in fig. 6, in this embodiment, the number of users is set to 50, 100, 200, 400, and 800, and then a certain number of edge servers are proportionally allocated to each group of users, the total resources of all the servers are enough to be allocated, but the resources are dispersed to each server, so that the difficulty of the allocation policy of the users is increased.
By integrating the simulation results and analysis, the invention can ensure that a distribution strategy with low user time cost is formulated in the edge computing environment with limited resources, and is also suitable for the situation with rich resources; the invention thoroughly solves the problem of high time cost caused by unreasonable allocation of the user to the edge server in the edge environment; in addition, the invention can be better applied in practice because the invention can be adapted to the actual non-linear user allocation strategy formulation.
