Abstract

Abstract: Aiming at the multi-devices, big data and low-latency simulation requirements in the Internet of Things, we define a concept of edge-side simulation and a simulation mode based on micro-services referring to the computational characteristics and architecture of edge computing and fog computing. For the link constraint and high-latency processing defects of "cloud simulation", a lightweight edge-side simulation platform framework combining edge computing and fog computing is designed, and the simulation speed is further accelerated by real-time simulation with LVC simulation system. Compared with the existing simulation frameworks, the edge-side simulation framework has the remarkable features of lightweight, high real-time, service, and organic integration with the Internet of Things, and can improve the collaboration, sharing, resource management and other capabilities of the simulation application from various aspects.

Key words: LVC simulation, edge computing, fog computing, simulation and emulation
