Abstract
Introduction: With many new technologies requiring real-time data processing, cloud computing has become challenging to implement due to high bandwidth and high latency requirements.
Purpose: To overcome this issue, edge computing is used to process data at the network’s edge. Edge computing is a distributed computing paradigm that brings computation and data storage closer to the location where it is needed. It is used to process time-sensitive data.
Methodology: The authors implemented the model using Linux Foundation’s open-source platform EdgeX Foundry to create an edge-computing device. The model involved getting data from an on-board sensor (on-board diagnostics (OBD-II)) and the GPS sensor of a car. The data are then observed and computed to the EdgeX server. The single server will send data to serve three real-life internet of things (IoT) use cases: auto insurance, supporting a smart city, and building a personal driving record.
Findings: The main aim of this model is to illustrate how edge computing can improve both latency and bandwidth usage needed for real-world IoT applications.
