VERTICAL APPLICATION IN EDGE COMPUTING - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18260240 titled 'VERTICAL APPLICATION IN EDGE COMPUTING

The abstract discusses a method involving Edge Enabler Server (EES) and Edge Application Server (EAS) in an Edge Data Network (EDN) for vertical application in edge computing.

  • Method involves EES receiving registration request message from EAS in the EDN.
  • Information in the message indicates a list of associated EAS information.
  • User Equipment (UE) performs joint EAS discovery and selection for vertical application in an edge deployment based on the associated EAS information.
  • Application enabler client in the UE and application specific server communicate with the same application enabler server.
      1. Potential Applications:

- This technology can be applied in various industries such as healthcare, manufacturing, and smart cities for efficient edge computing solutions. - It can enhance real-time data processing and analysis in IoT devices and systems.

      1. Problems Solved:

Original Abstract Submitted

The disclosure herein relate to vertical application in edge computing. A method performed by a first network function implementing Edge Enabler Server (EES) in an Edge Data Network (EDN). The method comprises receiving, from a second network function implementing Edge Application Server (EAS) in the EDN, a registration request message comprising information indicating a first list of associated EAS information. Based on the associated EAS information, the UE performs a joint EAS discovery and selection for vertical application in an edge deployment, thus both application enabler client in the UE and application specific server communicates with the same application enabler server.
