Abstract: Under the constraint of limited network edge resources, considering the impact of service diversity and network access heterogeneity on task offloading and computational resource allocation, a joint optimization algorithm for task offloading and computing power resources allocation under heterogeneous network is proposed to jointly handle local and server tasks. The proposed algorithm makes a trade-off between system revenue and task offloading delay by invoking Lyapunov theory and search tree algorithm. Furthermore, to quickly branch and bound the search tree, the offloading priority criterion is designed. Finally, the simulation results verify the effectiveness and rationality of the proposed algorithm.
