Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
Fog computing has revolutionized the world by providing its services close to the user premises, which results in reducing the communication latency for many real-time applications. This communication latency has been a major constraint in cloud computing and ultimately causes user dissatisfaction due to slow response time. Many real-time applications like smart transportation, smart healthcare systems, smart cities, smart farming, video surveillance, and virtual and augmented reality are delay-sensitive real-time applications and require quick response times. The response delay in certain critical healthcare applications might cause serious loss to health patients. Therefore, by leveraging fog computing, a substantial portion of healthcare-related computational tasks can be offloaded to nearby fog nodes. This localized processing significantly reduces latency and enhances system availability, making it particularly advantageous for time-sensitive and mission-critical healthcare applications. Due to close proximity to end users, fog computing is considered to be the most suitable computing platform for real-time applications. However, fog devices are resource constrained and require proper resource management techniques for efficient resource utilization. This study presents an optimized resource allocation and scheduling framework for delay-sensitive healthcare applications using a Modified Particle Swarm Optimization (MPSO) algorithm. Using the iFogSim toolkit, the proposed technique was evaluated for many extensive simulations to obtain the desired results in terms of system response time, cost of execution and execution time. Experimental results demonstrate that the MPSO-based method reduces makespan by up to 8% and execution cost by up to 3% compared to existing metaheuristic algorithms, highlighting its effectiveness in enhancing overall fog computing performance for healthcare systems.
