Mobile edge fog, Blockchain Networking and Computing-A survey

Mobile edge computing (MEC) and blockchain technology are two rapidly evolving areas in computer science that have the potential to significantly impact the design and operation of distributed systems. MEC involves the deployment of computing resources and services at the edge of the network, closer to the end users, enabling lowlatency, high-bandwidth applications such as augmented reality and machine learning. Blockchain technology, on the other hand, is a distributed database that allows for secure, transparent, and immutable record-keeping, with potential applications in a wide range of industries. In this project, we explore the integration of MEC and blockchain technology for the management of distributed computing resources at the edge of the network. We review the state of the art in these two areas, including existing projects and prototypes, and describe our materials and method for evaluating their potential for integration. Our results show that the combination of MEC and blockchain has the potential to enable new applications and services that require both low latency and secure, decentralized data management. We conclude by summarizing the main contributions of our work and discussing future directions for research in this area. Our findings have implications for the design and operation of distributed systems, and have the potential to enable new applications and services in a wide range of industries.
