论文摘要
虚拟化为物联网技术提供了一个抽象层，以解决边缘网络的异质性。它可以在具有不同体系结构的设备上部署应用程序以实现统一性。这项研究奠定了动态和事件驱动的编排框架的基本原理。它通过分布式文件系统（即行星际文件系统（IPFS））上的注册表（IPFS）提供了一个基于区块链的交付平台，用于注册其资源需求的容器化应用程序。从主机和虚拟化平台（即在我们的实施中docker）刮擦的指标上运行的分散资源管理器，动态优化了分配给每个容器的资源。该框架确保了异质环境的可变工作负载可以在多个边缘设备上共存。事件驱动的体系结构是通过轻型消息传递协议MQTT构建的，它利用了发布/订阅模式的异步和分布式性质，以实现真正的分布式系统。
Virtualization provides an abstraction layer for the Internet of Things technology to tackle the heterogeneity of the edge networks. It enables the deployment of an application on devices with different architectures to achieve uniformity. This study lays down the fundamentals of a framework for dynamic and event-driven orchestration towards a fully decentralized edge. It provides a blockchain-based delivery platform for containerized applications registered with their resource requirements through a registry on a distributed file system, namely InterPlanetary File System (IPFS). The decentralized resource manager running on the metrics scraped from the host and the virtualization platform, i.e., Docker in our implementation, dynamically optimizes the resources allocated to each container. The framework ensures that variable workloads of a heterogeneous environment can co-exist on multiple edge devices. An event-driven architecture is built over a lightweight messaging protocol, MQTT, capitalizing on the asynchronous and distributed nature of the publish/subscribe pattern to achieve a truly distributed system.
