Application: Distributed edge computing system and method (Patent ID: US20240045730A1)
The patent filed by Rakuten Group Inc. describes a method for distributed edge computing (DEC) that involves obtaining a request from a computational resource provider (CRP), validating the computational resources of the CRP, offering these resources to a computational resource consumer (CRC), and installing CRC software on the CRP for DEC. The CRP receives data from a localized device, processes it, and forwards the processed data to another localized device upon request. The method also includes steps such as installing a DEC system agent on the CRP, notifying devices of DNS addresses, reserving computation resources, testing resources, determining standard usage tiers, updating libraries, and validating resources based on templates and performance records.
The system and computer-readable medium described in the patent store and execute instructions for the method of distributed edge computing. These instructions cover obtaining requests from CRPs, validating and offering computational resources to CRCs, installing CRC software, installing DEC system agents, reserving resources, testing resources, determining standard usage tiers, updating libraries, and validating resources based on templates and performance records. The system and medium provide a comprehensive framework for implementing distributed edge computing efficiently and securely, ensuring that computational resources are effectively utilized and managed between providers and consumers in a distributed environment.
