Abstract: A computing node to implement a federation management entity associated with a federated MEC network includes a NIC and processing circuitry coupled to the NIC. The processing circuitry is configured to detect a request for a MEC service, the request originating from a MEC application instantiated on a first MEC host within a first MEC system of the federated MEC network. A second MEC system of the federated MEC network is selected, which includes a second MEC host providing the MEC service. A set of common credentials for secure communication between the first and second MEC systems is determined. A response to the request is generated for communication to the first MEC system via the NIC. The response includes the set of common credentials and identification information of a MEC management entity in the second MEC system. The MEC management entity provides access to the MEC service.

Abstract: Various systems and methods for enhancing a distributed computing environment with multiple edge hosts and user devices, including in multi-access edge computing (MEC) network platforms and settings, are described herein. A device of a lifecycle management (LCM) proxy apparatus obtains a request, from a device application, for an application multiple context of an application. The application multiple context for the application is determined. The request from the device application for the application multiple context for the application is authorized. A device application identifier based on the request is added to the application multiple context. A created response for the device application based on the authorization of the request is transmitted to the device application. The response includes an identifier of the application multiple context.

Abstract: An architecture to allow the translation or conversion of short-range direct communications between devices with different radio access, such as in a V2X (vehicle-to-everything) communication context, is disclosed. In an example, a translation process, such as is performed by a mobile/multi-access edge computing (MEC) communication entity, includes: obtaining or accessing, at a translation function, a communication message (e.g., IP message) provided from a first device operating with a first radio access technology (e.g., LTE C-V2X), the message addressed to a second device operating with a second radio access technology (e.g., IEEE 802.11p or DSRC/ITS-G5); converting the communication message, with the translation function, into a format compatible with the second radio access technology; and initiating a transmission of the translated communication message, from the translation function, to the second device using the second radio access technology.

Abstract: Embodiments herein may include systems, apparatuses, methods, and computer-readable media, for a multi-access edge computing (MEC) system. An apparatus for MEC may include a communication interface, a local cost measurements module, and a service allocation module. The communication interface may receive, from a UE, a request for a service to be provided to the UE. The local cost measurements module may collect a set of local cost measurements for the service. The service allocation module may determine to allocate the service to a MEC host based on an allocation policy related to a cost for the MEC host to provide the service or a cost for a service provider to provide the service in view of the one or more local cost measurements. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

Abstract: A service coordinating entity device includes communications circuitry to communicate with a first access network, processing circuitry, and a memory device. The processing circuitry is to perform operations to, in response to a request for establishing a connection with a user equipment (UE) in a second access network, retrieve a first Trusted Level Agreement (TLA) including trust attributes associated with the first access network. One or more exchanges of the trust attributes of the first TLA and trust attributes of a second TLA associated with the second access network are performed using a computing service executing on the service coordinating entity. A common TLA with trust attributes associated with communications between the first and second access networks is generated based on the exchanges. Data traffic is routed from the first access network to the UE in the second access network based on the trust attributes of the common TLA.

Abstract: Various systems and methods are described implementing a multi-access edge computing (MEC) based system to realize MEC application registration and application data functions for MEC frameworks. In an example, operations are performed at a MEC orchestrator to maintain a registry of applications within a MEC system or among a federation of MEC systems, with the MEC orchestrator performing operations including: identifying, based on the communications with a plurality of MEC hosts, a plurality of applications provided by the MEC hosts in the MEC system (or, by applications provided by a plurality of MEC hosts in a federation); storing and synchronizing application information for the plurality of applications in a registry; and communicating the application information from the registry to an entity of the MEC system or to an entity federated with the MEC system.

Abstract: Approaches for Multi-Access Edge Computing (MEC) Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X), Vehicle-To-Vehicle (V2V), and Autonomous Vehicles Distributed Networks (AVDN) functions in a MEC infrastructure are discussed. In various examples, operations and network configurations are described that use a service in an AVDN, including: identifying a service condition (e.g., based on a state of a service and connectivity to an instance of the service); establishing a connection in the AVDN in response to the service condition (e.g., using vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) or Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) network communications to the AVDN); and performing a service operation with the service via the AVDN.
