In modern smartphones there exist several applications that periodically establish data connection and/or send to the network. For example, a mobile email application checks for incoming messages from server. Packet transmission is usually triggered by expiration of timer. Wireless radio access resources are activated during transmission, which increases energy consumption terminal, particularly when connected over 3G Fortunately, timing requirements not strict and therefore timers can be...

End users stream video increasingly from live broadcasters (via YouTube Live, Twitch etc.). Adaptive streaming is realised by transcoding different representations of the original content. Management resources creates costs for service provider, because a CPU-intensive task. Additionally, content must be transcoded within real time with in order to provide satisfying Quality Service. The contribution this paper validation an online architecture enabling Docker Kubernetes-based cloud...

The current approaches for energy consumption optimisation in buildings are mainly reactive or focus on scheduling of daily/weekly operation modes heating. Machine Learning (ML)-based advanced control methods have been demonstrated to improve efficiency when compared these traditional methods. However, placing ML-based models close the is not straightforward. Firstly, edge-devices typically lower capabilities terms processing power, memory, and storage, which may limit execution inference at...
