Consumer Technology in Task Offloading and Edge Resource Allocation: AIoT and Edge Computing for Next-Generation Communication

Artificial Intelligence of Things (AIoT) edge computing has emerged as a critical enabler for consumer technology, easing the load on distribution grid networks through enhanced data transmission and processing capabilities. The Internet of Things (IoT), a modern network paradigm, connects devices using sensors and communication mediums to enable seamless information exchange. However, the limited computational capacity of edge nodes poses challenges in optimizing AIoT edge resources compared to cloud computing. To address this, a cloud-edge three-layer framework for task offloading and edge resource allocation is proposed in the context of consumer technology and distribution grids. This model incorporates random tasks, limited resources, unequal processing power, and high latency requirements. It features two key phases: a resource auction using a multi-round iterative process and compute offloading managed by a Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) approach. Enhanced algorithms such as Double DQN and Dueling DQN are integrated into the job offloading process to improve performance. Simulations validate the convergence of the task offloading algorithm and demonstrate that the proposed methods significantly enhance computational efficiency and resource utilization for edge nodes. These advancements offer promising solutions for the dynamic needs of consumer technology and future communication networks.
