1.3 The Needs of Mobile Fog Computing
ОглавлениеMFC encompasses four application domains: land vehicular applications, marine applications, unmanned aerial vehicular applications, and UE-based applications. Specifically, each domain involves both iFog- and mFog-based architecture. Ideally, the approaches of iFog aim to provide generic solutions that are applicable to all the MFC domains where the infrastructure is applicable. On the other hand, mFog-based approaches aim to overcome the challenges in which the iFog is inapplicable or is unable to resolve effectively. To clarify the terminologies used in the rest of the chapter, iFog denotes infrastructural fog node and mFog represents the generic term of mobile fog nodes. Moreover, we further classify mFog to four types: LV-Fog, Marine Fog, UAV-Fog, and user equipment-based fog (UE-fog) corresponding to the mobile fog node hosted on a land vehicle, a vessel, a UAV, and a UE (e.g. smartphone, tablet, etc.).
