Task offloading in edge computing is a technique for offloading all or part of a compute-intensive task to a cloud server with sufficient resources by a resource-constrained mobile device, and mainly plays a role in saving energy and battery life or an application program which cannot be processed heavily by a terminal device.
In the existing research, the task unloading optimization of a three-layer framework of user equipment, an edge computing server and a cloud server is mostly discussed, although the cloud server has massive computing resources, the cloud server is located at a remote geographical position, and transmission delay which cannot be accepted by a user is caused in the unloading process. In the existing work, the task unloading and resource allocation scheme in the edge calculation designed by researchers mainly considers optimization time delay, energy, resource utilization rate and the like, and neglects the importance of user fairness. Therefore, there is a need to provide a task offloading and resource allocation scheme that does not rely on cloud-side servers, but solves this problem by making reasonable use of resources in edge server farms that are geographically relatively close, while taking user fairness into account.

In the FGRA resource allocation algorithm, the following two propositions are proposed and proved that FGRA can achieve the maximum service experience deficiency factor minimization of a single edge computing server.
Proposition 1: the maximum service experience factor of an edge computing server can be minimized only if the service experience factors of all tasks on the edge computing server are equal.
And (3) proving that: if server M is computed at the edgecompHas a task TmTask T with a service experience deficiency factor that is greater than the maximum service experience deficiency factor on the serveriIf it is small, T can be appropriately setmComputing resource of (1) is transferred to (T)iUpper, then TiHas a reduced number of service experience deficiency, i.e. the edge computing server McompThe maximum service experience deficiency factor is reduced. Therefore, the maximum service experience factor of an edge computing server can be minimized if and only if the service experience factors of all tasks on the edge computing server are equal.
Proposition 2: the maximum service experience factor of an edge compute server is minimized only if the compute resources on the edge compute server are fully allocated.
And (3) proving that: if server M is computed at the edgecompIf resources are not allocated to the task, then the resources are allocated to the task T with the maximum service experience deficiency coefficient on the serveriThen T isiHas a reduced number of service experience deficiency, i.e. the edge computing server McompThe maximum service experience deficiency factor of (2) is reduced.
