Original Abstract Submitted

a method for decentralized management of edge computing nodes, where the user equipment assumes direct control of the edge nodes through an integrated edge manager module, which has means for seamlessly onboarding edge applications onto edge computing nodes, eliminating the need for a central management entity in the network. the user equipment further includes a context storage module to store applications and support the migration of their context into another edge computing node. the edge manager module of the user equipment can request the application context data of edge applications running in an edge computing node, store context data, onboard the edge application configurations in other edge computing nodes, instantiate the edge applications, and configure the application context data into the destination edge computing node, even in scenarios without direct connectivity between edge nodes.
