A New Comprehensive Mathematical Model for Heterogeneous Multi-service Hybrid Migration in Edge Computing.

Integrating cloud, fog, and edge computing with future Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices and their applications in 5G/6G networks will become more feasible soon. This research analyzes the effectiveness of the Hybrid-MiGrror and hybrid-copy migration methods in scenarios involving heterogeneous multiple VMs/containers. This research introduces mathematical models for the Hybrid-MiGrror approach and offers suggestions and comparisons for migrating services to be deployed as multiple services. The model's notable feature is its ability to use both average and non-average values for various parameters during migration, resulting in enhanced and more precise outcomes. In contrast, previous hybrid migration studies mostly rely only on average values. This study demonstrates that relying solely on average parameter values in hybrid migration can result in imprecise outcomes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
