“…Thus, an integrated edge-cloud computing system is often used to handle compute-intensive and/or time-critical applications [ 139 , 140 ]. However, the underlying 6G networks should consider the energy efficiency [ 141 , 142 , 143 , 144 , 145 , 146 , 147 , 148 ], optimal resource provisioning and scheduling [ 149 , 150 , 151 , 152 ], and contextual-aware application partitioning [ 153 , 154 , 155 , 156 , 157 , 158 , 159 , 160 , 161 , 162 , 163 , 164 ] requirements of this integrated system.…”
