Simulating Fog/Edge Computing Research Models using iFogSim Simulation Toolkit Framework

Ratings: 2.49 / 5.00




Description

iFogSim Simulation Toolkit is another simulator used for the implementation of the Fog computing-related research problem.

This course will help you to follow the simulation-based approach of iFogSim and can leverage various benefits like:

  1. Testing of services and scenarios in a controllable environment of iFogSim.

  2. Optimizing the core system performance issues with the iFogSim simulation engine before deploying on real infrastructure.

  3. iFogSim allows simulating the small or large scale infrastructure to evaluate different sets of workload along with the resource performance. This facilitates the development, testing, and deployment of adaptive application provisioning techniques.

This course content is designed for researchers who are working on a different set of problems to improve Fog/Edge computing technology. The main emphasis of this course will be on providing a basic understanding of how to configure and utilize the iFogSim simulation toolkit and how to implement well researched proposed solutions for a certain set of problem(s).
