Edge Offloading: Energy vs Latency Simulator (2D)

Interactive 2D mobile-edge-computing simulator: tune task size, local CPU frequency, wireless bandwidth and an energy-vs-latency policy weight, watch a live bar-chart comparison of local vs. offloaded execution, and see a real decision-boundary map swept from the same offloading equations.

Every mobile and IoT device running edge computing faces the same decision, over and over: run this task on local silicon, or send it across the wireless link to a nearby edge server? This 2D build models that choice with the standard mobile-edge-computing offloading equations — local compute time and dynamic CMOS energy (which scales with the square of CPU frequency) versus wireless transmission time plus edge-server compute time and radio energy. Tune task size, local CPU frequency, wireless bandwidth and an energy-versus-latency policy weight, watch tasks route themselves between a local-compute node and an edge server on an animated timeline, read the live bar-chart comparison of predicted time and energy, and inspect a real decision-boundary map — swept cell by cell from the same formulas — showing exactly which region of the parameter space favors local compute versus offloading.

⚙ Under the hood

Simulate a mobile/IoT device deciding, task by task, whether to process data locally or offload it to an edge server, and watch CPU frequency, task size, wireless bandwidth and an energy-vs-latency policy weight shift the winner between local compute and edge offloading in real time.
