Abstract

Abstract : As the Internet of Things (IoT) smart mobile devices explode in complex opportunistic social networks, the amount of data in complex networks is increasing. Large amounts of data cause high latency, high energy consumption, and low-reliability issues when dealing with computationally intensive and latency-sensitive emerging mobile applications. Therefore, we propose a task-sharing strategy that comprehensively considers delay, energy consumption, and terminal reputation value (DERV) for this context. The model consists of a task-sharing decision model that integrates latency and energy consumption, and a reputation value-based model for the allocation of the computational resource game. The two submodels apply an improved particle swarm algorithm and a Lagrange multiplier, respectively. Mobile nodes in the complex social network are given the opportunity to make decisions so that they can choose to share computationally intensive, latency-sensitive computing tasks to base stations with greater computing power in the same network. At the same time, to prevent malicious competition from end nodes, the base station decides the allocation of computing resources based on a database of reputation values provided by a trusted authority. The simulation results show that the proposed strategy can meet the service requirements of low delay, low power consumption, and high reliability for emerging intelligent applications. It effectively realizes the overall optimized allocation of computation sharing resources and promotes the stable transmission of massive data in complex networks.
