Comparison with existing works.

Feature	Edge computing	Method used	Forecasting	Objective
RAN sharing [12]	No	Linear programming	No	Max. QoS
Traffic load exploitation [13]	No	Game theory	No	Min. spending cost
Contractual backup [14]	No	Contract design under symmetric information	No	Max. resource utilization and profits
Multiple-seller single-buyer [15]	No	Stochastic geometry	No	Cost minimization; Guarantee of QoS
Communication and computation (proposed)	Yes	LSTM; LLC	Yes	Min. energy consumption; Guarantee of QoS

Yes: considered; No: not considered.
