Abstract:
The disclosure includes embodiments that provide a digital twin-based edge server switching decision. A method includes causing a sensor set of a connected vehicle to determine a current driving context of the connected vehicle. The method includes comparing the current driving context to a set of digital twin data to determine a predicted latency for using offboard computing resources of an edge server. The method includes determining that the predicted latency for using the offboard computing resources satisfies a threshold for the predicted latency. The method includes executing a switching decision that includes deciding to use the offboard computing resources of the edge server based on the comparing of the current driving context to the set of digital twin data and the determining that the threshold for the predicted latency is satisfied.
