AbstractThe Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) model attracts more users to its services due to its characteristics and rapid delivery approach. This network architecture capability enables users to access the information from the edge of the network. But, the security of this edge network architecture is a big challenge. All the MEC services are available in a shared manner and accessed by users via the Internet. Attacks like the user to root, remote login, Denial of Service (DoS), snooping, port scanning, etc., can be possible in this computing environment due to Internet-based remote service. Intrusion detection is an approach to protect the network by detecting attacks. Existing detection models can detect only the known attacks and the efficiency for monitoring the real-time network traffic is low. The existing intrusion detection solutions cannot identify new unknown attacks. Hence, there is a need of an Edge-based Hybrid Intrusion Detection Framework (EHIDF) that not only detects known attacks but also capable of detecting unknown attacks in real time with low False Alarm Rate (FAR). This paper aims to propose an EHIDF which is mainly considered the Machine Learning (ML) approach for detecting intrusive traffics in the MEC environment. The proposed framework consists of three intrusion detection modules with three different classifiers. The Signature Detection Module (SDM) uses a C4.5 classifier, Anomaly Detection Module (ADM) uses Naive-based classifier, and Hybrid Detection Module (HDM) uses the Meta-AdaboostM1 algorithm. The developed EHIDF can solve the present detection problems by detecting new unknown attacks with low FAR. The implementation results illustrate that EHIDF accuracy is 90.25% and FAR is 1.1%. These results are compared with previous works and found improved performance. The accuracy is improved up to 10.78% and FAR is reduced up to 93%. A game-theoretical approach is also discussed to analyze the security strength of the proposed framework.

Improved Performance

Mobile-Edge Computing (MEC) is a novel and sustainable network architecture that enables energy conservation with cloud computing and network services offloading at the edge of mobile cellular networks. However, how to efficiently manage various real-time changing security functions is an essential issue which hinders the future MEC development. To address this problem, we propose a fuzzy security service chaining approach for MEC. In particular, a new architecture is designed to decouple the required security functions with the physical resources. Based on this, we present a security proxy to support compatibility to traditional security functions. Furthermore, to find the optimal order of the required security functions, we establish a fuzzy inference system (FIS) based mechanism to achieve multiple optimal objectives. Much work has been done to implement a prototype, which is used to analyze the performance by comparing with a widely used method. The results prove that the proposed FIS mechanism achieves an improved performance in terms of Inverted Generational Distance (IGD) values and execution time with respect to the compared solution.

Cooperative Relationship

Mobile edge computing (MEC) effectively integrates wireless network and Internet technologies and adds computing, storage, and processing functions to the edge of cellular networks. This new network architecture model can deliver services directly from the cloud to the very edge of the network while providing the best efficiency in mobile networks. However, due to the dynamic, open, and collaborative nature of MEC network environments, network security issues have become increasingly complex. Devices cannot easily ensure obtaining satisfactory and safe services because of the numerous, dynamic, and collaborative character of MEC devices and the lack of trust between devices. The trusted cooperative mechanism can help solve this problem. In this paper, we analyze the MEC network structure and device-to-device (D2D) trusted cooperative mechanism and their challenging issues and then discuss and compare different ways to establish the D2D trusted cooperative relationship in MEC, such as social trust, reputation, authentication techniques, and intrusion detection. All these ways focus on enhancing the efficiency, stability, and security of MEC services in presenting trustworthy services.

Rural cooperative financial organization is a new type of cooperative financial organization in recent years. It is a community financial institution created by farmers and small rural enterprises to voluntarily invest in shares in order to meet the growing demand for rural financing. However, this financial organization has many flaws in the design of the system; it has not promoted the better development of rural mutual fund assistance. In addition, mobile edge computing (MEC) can be used as an effective supplement to mobile cloud computing and has been proposed. However, most of the current literature studies on cloud computing provide computing offload just to propose a network architecture, without modeling and solving to achieve. In this context, this paper focuses on the practical application of MEC in the risk control of new rural cooperative financial organizations. This paper proposes a collaborative LECC mechanism based on machine learning under the MEC architecture. The experimental simulation shows that the HR under the LECC mechanism is about 17%–23%, 46%–69%, and 93%–177% higher than that of LENC, LRU, and RR, respectively. It is unrealistic to want to rely on meager loan interest for long-term development. The most practical way is to increase the income level of the organization itself.

Perception System

Real-time and reliable short-term traffic state prediction is one of the most critical technologies in intelligent transportation systems (ITS). However, the traffic state is generally perceived by single sensor in existing studies, which is difficult to satisfy the requirement of real-time prediction in complex traffic networks. In this paper, a short-term traffic prediction model based on complex neural network is proposed under the environment of vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication systems. Firstly, a traffic perception system of multi-source sensors based on V2X communication is proposed and designed. A mobile edge computing (MEC)-assisted architecture is then introduced in a V2X network to facilitate perceptual and computational abilities of the system. Moreover, the graph convolutional network (GCN), the gated recurrent unit (GRU), and the soft-attention mechanism are combined to extract spatiotemporal features of traffic state and integrate them for future prediction. Finally, an intelligent roadside test platform is demonstrated for perception and computation of real-time traffic state. The comparison experiments show that the proposed method can significantly improve the prediction accuracy by comparing with the existing neural network models, which consider one of the spatiotemporal features. In particular, for comparison results of the traffic state prediction and the error value of root mean squared error (RMSE) is reduced by 39.53%, which is the greatest reduction in error occurrences by comparing with the GCN and GRU models in 5, 10, 15 and 30 minutes respectively.

Task Offloading

AbstractThe task offloading problem, which aims to balance the energy consumption and latency for Mobile Edge Computing (MEC), is still a challenging problem due to the dynamic changing system environment. To reduce energy while guaranteeing delay constraint for mobile applications, we propose an access control management architecture for 5G heterogeneous network by making full use of Base Station’s storage capability and reusing repetitive computational resource for tasks. For applications that rely on real-time information, we propose two algorithms to offload tasks with consideration of both energy efficiency and computation time constraint. For the first scenario, i.e. the rarely changing system environment, an optimal static algorithm is proposed based on dynamic programming technique to get the exact solution. For the second scenario, i.e. the frequently changing system environment, a two-stage online algorithm is proposed to adaptively obtain the current optimal solution in real time. Simulation results demonstrate that the exact algorithm in the first scenario runs 4 times faster than the enumeration method. In the second scenario, the proposed online algorithm can reduce the energy consumption and computation time violation rate by 16.3% and 25% in comparison with existing methods.
