    Abstract: Various approaches are provided for enabling Edge Dual Deployment (EDD). EDD includes Multi-access edge computing (MEC) Dual Deployments (MDD) initialization performed as a preliminary step before the actual registration, as a mechanism to allow the two platforms (EES and MEC platform) to communicate directly. MDD establishment is a dual registration mechanism of the edge application in the EDD environment. MDD update and closing are analogous registration update and de-registration processes, with both sub-cases.

    Abstract: Various approaches for Multi-Access Edge Computing (MEC) and Operator Platform (OP) systems, and management of applications and services in such systems, are discussed herein. An example system is configured to coordinate operations of a MEC system and an EDGEAPP system. The system performs lifecycle management (LCM) operations of MEC and EDGEAPP applications in an Operator Platform instance in an Operator Platform domain, enabling coordination of the MEC and EDGEAPP applications in their respective systems. The system receives application data from an application client of a user equipment (UE) associated with either the MEC system or the EDGEAPP system and transmits the application data to an application host associated with (e.g., executed on) the other system. The system thus enables LCM of respective apps and communications among MEC and EDGEAPP systems, enhancing the overall performance of an Operator Platform.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatus to attest objects in edge computing environments are disclosed. An example apparatus generate an attestation information object in an edge computing environment includes an evidence collector to collect evidence for an attestation information object to attest the authenticity of a first object, a temporal data generator to generate temporal information associated with data associated with the object, the evidence collector to associate the evidence and the temporal information with the first object, and an interface generator to generate an interface for the attestation information object.

    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and machine-readable storage media of a multi-access edge computing (MEC) component, of a first MEC system, for discovering platforms in MEC systems, are described. In an example, a list of MEC system identifiers is received from a dedicated reference point. The MEC system identifiers includes a system identifier of a second, different MEC system. A list of available MEC hosts in the second MEC system that fulfill a predefined requirement is received. A list of shareable services on the first MEC system is determined. Information is provided to the second MEC system regarding the list of shareable services on the first MEC system.

    Abstract: Various aspects of methods, systems, and use cases for verification and attestation of operations in an edge computing environment are described, based on use of a trust calculus and established definitions of trustworthiness properties. In an example, an edge computing verification node is configured to: obtain a trust representation, corresponding to an edge computing feature, that is defined with a trust calculus and provided in a data definition language; receive, from an edge computing node, compute results and attestation evidence from the edge computing feature; attempt validation of the attestation evidence based on attestation properties defined by the trust representation; and communicate an indication of trustworthiness for the compute results, based on the validation of the attestation evidence. In further examples, the trust representation and validation is used in a named function network (NFN), for dynamic composition and execution of a function.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer programs are presented for sharing information among multiple Mobility as a Service (MaaS) systems for presenting service information to users. One system includes means for receiving, by a multi-access edge computing (MEC) application, parameters of a global quality of service (QoS) prediction model, and means for sending, to a local prediction function (PF), an update of a local QoS prediction model. Further, the system includes means for detecting a journey of a vehicle requested by a user, and means for sending to the local PF, a request for a value of the QoS along the journey. The value of the QoS is a measure of quality of transportation services delivered during the journey. The system further includes means for receiving the predicted value of the QoS along the journey, and means for providing, by the MEC application, the predicted value of the QoS to the vehicle.
