Edge computing extends cloud computing by providing a subset of computational resources that are close to the application site, lowering the need for bandwidth and augmenting responsiveness. This allows implementing cloud benefits in critical applications bound to a physical location, provided that a correct distribution between edge and cloud is applied. To achieve this purpose, a performance evaluation of the architecture is needed. In this paper we present a queuing networks based modeling approach for complex critical edge computing based systems, applied to a support system for accident management teams.
