- Architectures and protocols for integrating edge computing, caching, and offloading
- Designs and optimizations for integrating edge computing, caching, and offloading
- Information-centric networks
- Content-centric networks
- Cache-enabled networks
- Computation offloading in networks
- Networks for cloud computing
- Networks for edge/fog computing
- Integrating edge computing, caching, and offloading in 5G cellular networks
- Energy efficient hardware, software, networks and services
- QoS provisioning and resource management in integrating edge computing, caching, and offloading
- Modeling and performance evaluation of integrating edge computing, caching, and offloading
- Performance/complexity/cost tradeoff
- Pricing and billing for integrating edge computing, caching, and offloading
