Abstract
In recent years the growth of cloud computing, Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI) and edge intelligence has been increasing, and with it the need for portable, scalable and secure computing infrastructures that can process vast amounts of data that is dispersed, and has very low latency. Traditional cloud infrastructures are typically based on central server deployments which can be costly to deploy, immobile, have potentially greater communication latency, and waste resources in dynamic workload environments. In this paper, we introduced an Intelligent Portable Edge – Cloud Computing Architecture (IPECA) that combines the portable computing hardware, AI-based workload prediction, adaptive resource optimization, container-based virtualization and secure edge-cloud collaboration into a single computing architecture. In conventional architectures, there is no intelligent resource orchestration mechanism, which can provide flexible allocation of computational resources according to the property of workload, thermal status, energy consumption, network availability and so on. The architecture also features an adaptive security layer leveraging multiple layers of authentication, secure communication protocols, blockchain for integrity verification and on-the-fly system health monitoring to enhance cyber resilience. Simulations are conducted with varying workloads to gauge the effectiveness of the proposed architecture, and compared to traditional cloud and edge-cloud architectures with the metrics of latency, throughput, CPU utilization, response time, energy consumption, thermal efficiency, and resource utilization. Experiments demonstrate significant energy savings, scalability, responsiveness of the system and efficiency of computations using secure distributed processing. The suggested architecture is viable for the coming intelligent cloud infrastructures that are essential for smart city, industrial IoT, digital healthcare, education and enterprise computing.
