Description
Summary:With the rising use of Internet of Things (IoT)-enabled devices, there is a significant increase in the use of smart applications that provide their response in real time. This rising demand imposes many issues such as scheduling, cost, overloading of servers, etc. To overcome these, a cost-effective scheduling technique has been proposed for the allocation of smart applications. The aim of this paper is to provide better profit by the Fog environment and minimize the cost of smart applications from the user end. The proposed framework has been evaluated with the help of a test bed containing four analysis phases and is compared on the basis of five metrics- average allocation time, average profit by the Fog environment, average cost of smart applications, resource utilization and number of applications run within given latency. The proposed framework performs better under all the provided metrics.
