Abstract:

The Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) paradigm and the Cellular Vehicle-to-Everything (C-V2X) technology prove to be good candidates to address the vehicular applications' demands of high-performing connectivity and low-latency access to computing and storage resources. MEC provides cloud-like resources at the network edge, i.e., at the Multi-access Edge (ME) host. While vehicles move around, a service application instance running on a ME host may be triggered to move to another ME host to better support the application's demands. As a side effect, this migration may undermine service continuity. In this paper, we refer to the latest available ETSI MEC and 3GPP C-V2X specifications to investigate the issue of service migration between ME hosts in the context of vehicular communication. Early experimental results provide measures of the service migration latencies when ME applications run as Docker containers.
