Abstract

En 中文
The rapid advancement of Internet of Vehicles technology has led to massive growth in vehicular data generation, imposing strict computational demands for latency-sensitive applications. By offloading computational tasks to Road-side Units (RSUs), Vehicular Edge Computing (VEC) offers an efficient solution for those latency-sensitive applications. However, current task offloading schemes generally ignore the time-varying topology caused by vehicle mobility, which poses a risk of task interruption. Moreover, existing task offloading models primarily focus on serial tasks processing and fail to adequately account for the relationships among parallel tasks, leading to inefficient resource utilization and potential latency accumulation in multi-task VEC scenarios. To this end, we propose a mobility-aware <underline xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">Co</u>llaborative <underline xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">T</u>ask <underline xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">O</u>ffloading scheme for <underline xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">P</u>arallel tasks (CoTOP) in VEC. Integrated with vehicle mobility detection, a collaborative task offloading model is designed based on deep reinforcement learning, achieving effective coordination among RSUs to reduce task processing latency. Additionally, a task prioritization algorithm is incorporated to optimize resource allocation. Experimental results show that CoTOP significantly outperforms existing schemes in terms of task processing latency, energy consumption and completion ratio.
