An Energy-Aware Task Offloading Mechanism in Multiuser Mobile-Edge Cloud Computing

Algorithm 1

The Algorithm for classifying the mobile device and priority determination.

Initialization:

Mobile IoT device set: ;

Wireless channel set: ;

The task on mobile IoT device: ;

Transmission power of mobile IoT device: , ;

Idle power of mobile IoT device: , ;

Categorized device sets: ;

Priority set: ;

1: for mobile device to N do

2:  for channel to M do

3:  calculate the exclusive channel data transfer rate of each mobile device as in (11), and the energy consumption as in (12);

4:  if then

5:   ;

6:  else

7:   ;

8:   ;

9:   end if

10:  end for

Output:

The categorized device set: , ;

The priority set for the devices , .
