Edge computing is a new paradigm that provides data processing capabilities at the network edge. In view of the uneven data distribution and the constrained onboard resource, an edge device often needs to call for a number of neighboring devices as followers to cooperate on data analysis tasks. However, these followers may be rational and selfish, having their private optimization objectives such as energy efficiency. Therefore, the leader device needs to incentivize the followers to achieve a certain global objective, e.g., maximizing task accomplishment, rather than their own objectives. In this paper, we model the aforementioned challenges in edge computing …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

FFT is one of the basic building blocks in many applications such as sensors, radars, communications. For some applications, e.g., real-time spectral monitoring and analysis, FFT needs to be "run-time configurable" so that the system is real-time. When examining the previous work on configurable real-time (FPGA-based) FFT implementations, we see that the degree of configurability is less than what is desired. In this paper, a new FFT architecture is proposed, which has a high degree of run-time configurability and yet does not compromise area or throughput.
