Abstract: 
Redundancy is abundant in fog networks (i.e., many computing and storage points) and grows linearly with network size. We demonstrate the transformational role of coding in fog computing for leveraging such redundancy to substantially reduce the bandwidth consumption and latency of computing. In particular, we discuss two recently proposed coding concepts, minimum bandwidth codes and minimum latency codes, and illustrate their impacts on fog computing. We also review a unified coding framework that includes the above two coding techniques as special cases, and enables a trade-off between computation latency and communication load to optimize system performance. At the end, we will discuss several open problems and future research directions.

Coded distributed computing for inverse problems

TL;DR: This paper designs a novel error-correcting-code inspired technique for solving linear inverse problems under specific iterative methods in a parallelized implementation affected by stragglers, and provably shows that this coded-computation technique can reduce the mean-squared error under a computational deadline constraint.

Coded fourier transform

TL;DR: This is the first code that achieves the optimum robustness in terms of tolerating stragglers or failures for computing Fourier transforms, and the reconstruction process for coded FFT can be mapped to MDS decoding, which can be solved efficiently.

TL;DR: Fog computing is not a replacement to cloud computing, but a prevailing component as discussed by the authors, it allows the processing of the information at the edge though still delivering the option to connect with the data center of the cloud.
