Mobile applications are becoming increasingly computationalintensive, while many mobile devices still have limited battery power and cannot support computational intensive tasks. Mobile edge computing (MEC) computing is an extension of edge computing, and it refers to computing at the edge of a network. In mobile edge computing, computing and storage nodes are placed at the Internet’s edge near mobile devices. It places the edge clouds at the candidate locations. This paper presents a brief introduction to MEC.
