Abstract: In order to improve the safety of the ship's piloting process, an INA-based offshore edge computing network (IOECN) architecture is proposed to provide navigation assistance information. The Layout Optimization Problem (LOP) of network element nodes in the network is mainly studied. The mathematical model is used to convert the LOP into an Integer Linear Programming (ILP) problem. On condition of the required network coverage and connectivity, aiming to minimize the network cost, being solved by Gurobi and simulated and demonstrated by Matlab, the network optimization on different scales is obtained and the correctness and scalability of the model is verified.

Key words: INA, edge computing, ILP, network optimization
