Abstract

For the resolution of the latency problem of the cloud center-based cloud computing, fog computing was proposed that allows end devices to offload computations to nearby fog nodes. In the fog computing, virtualized service images are placed on fog nodes and, if service images are placed close to end devices, the duplicate service image placement problem may occur. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a service image placement mechanism based on the logical fog network that reduces duplicate service images by considering the pattern of collected service requests. For the performance evaluation of the proposed mechanism, through simulations, we compare ours with the on-demand mechanism placing a service image upon the receipt of a service request. We consider the performance factors like the number of service images, the number of non-accommodated service requests, and the network cost.
