Edge Server Quantification and Placement for Offloading Social Media Services in Industrial Cognitive IoV

Abstract: The automotive industry, a key part of industrial Internet of Things, is now converging with cognitive computing (CC) and leading to industrial cognitive Internet of Vehicles (CIoV). As the major data source of industrial CIoV, social media has a significant impact on the quality of service (QoS) of the automotive industry. To provide vehicular social media services with low latency and high reliability, edge computing is adopted to complement cloud computing by offloading CC tasks to the edge of the network. Generally, task offloading is implemented based on the premise that edge servers (ESs) are appropriately quantified and located. However, the quantification of ESs is often offered according to empirical knowledge, lacking analysis on real condition of intelligent transportation system (ITS). To address the abovementioned problem, a c ollaborative method for the q uantification and p lacement of ESs, named CQP, is developed for social media services in industrial CIoV. Technically, CQP begins with a population initializing strategy by Canopy and K-medoids clustering to estimate the approximate ES quantity. Then, nondominated sorting genetic algorithm III is adopted to achieve solutions with higher QoS. Finally, CQP is evaluated with a real-world ITS social media data set from China.

Simple chaotic 3D flows with surfaces of equilibria

Abstract: Using a systematic computer search, twelve simple three-dimensional chaotic flows were found that have surfaces of equilibria. Although there are some four-dimensional systems with surfaces of equilibria, there is no such system in three-dimensional state space reported in the literature. Such systems are not difficult to design, but they can have some practical benefits. Study of chaotic flows with surfaces of equilibria provides a good reference for building systems with attractors that are protected from external influences, which can increase the safety of engineering.
