Abstract:
A location manager includes a memory and a processor coupled to the memory. The processor executes a process including extracting a combination of a transfer device and a path by using topology information indicating a relation of connections among transfer devices. The process including calculating a sum of an amount of electric power consumed by the transfer device being included in the combination to store the data and an amount of electric power consumed by transfer devices on a path included in the combination to transfer the data. The process including selecting a combination of which the sum of electric power calculated at the calculating is a minimum sum out of the combinations extracted at the extracting. The process including outputting information indicating the combination selected at the selecting.
Abstract:
An edge server includes a memory configured to store obtained terminal information and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to obtain, from the terminal device, terminal information including a location and a moving speed of the terminal device and at a first time when the terminal device is located within a coverage area of the edge server, estimate a location of the terminal device at a second time after the first time based on at least first terminal information of the terminal device obtained at the first time, and copy the accumulated edge data of the terminal device to another edge server whose coverage area includes the estimated location of the terminal device at the second time.
Abstract:
A data distribution device includes: a memory configured to store cache data of data to be distributed; and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to: read the cache data from the memory in accordance with a request message received from other devices to distribute the cache data to the other devices, update, when the request message is received, a counter value that gets closer to a given value with time, so as to make the counter value move away from the given value in accordance with a reference value that is a reciprocal of a threshold value of a reception rate of the request message, whether or not to store the cache data being determined based on the reception rate; and discard the cache data in the memory when the counter value becomes the given value.
Abstract:
According to the information about a request bandwidth of a path newly requested between a starting site and an ending site of the requested path and the information about the type of a device candidate which may be provided at each site and the number of ports of each device, an objective function indicating a device cost and a constraint to be considered when the objective function is minimized are set. According to the arithmetic performance of a solver for executing the design, a problem scale corresponding to one path accommodation designing operation is set. Based on the set problem scale, a mathematical programming problem for minimizing the objective function is generated. An accommodation designing process is repeated on a plurality of paths until a solution to the mathematical programming problem is obtained by the solver, and all requested paths are completely designed.
