Edge computing caters to a wide range of use cases from latency sensitive to bandwidth constrained applications. However, the exact specifications of the edge that give the most benefit for each type of application are still unclear. We investigate the concrete conditions when the edge is feasible, i.e., when users observe performance gains from the edge while costs remain low for the providers, for an application that requires both low latency and high bandwidth: video analytics.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
