| Abstract | The development of the Internet of Things (IoT) technology is leading to a new era of smart applications such as smart transportation, buildings, and smart homes. Moreover, these applications act as the building blocks of IoT-enabled smart cities. The high volume and high velocity of data generated by various smart city applications are sent to flexible and efficient cloud computing resources for processing. However, there is a high computation latency due to the presence of a remote cloud server. Edge computing, which brings the computation close to the data source is introduced to overcome this problem. In an IoT-enabled smart city environment, one of the main concerns is to consume the least amount of energy while executing tasks that satisfy the delay constraint. An efficient resource allocation at the edge is helpful to address this issue. In this paper, an energy and delay minimization problem in a smart city environment is formulated as a bi-objective edge resource allocation problem. First, we presented a three-layer network architecture for IoT-enabled smart cities. Then, we designed a learning automata-based edge resource allocation approach considering the three-layer network architecture to solve the said bi-objective minimization problem. Learning Automata (LA) is a reinforcement-based adaptive decision-maker that helps to find the best task and edge resource mapping. An extensive set of simulations is performed to demonstrate the applicability and effectiveness of the LA-based approach in the IoT-enabled smart city environment. |
