Abstract

With the evolving digitization, services of Cloud and Fog make things easier which is offered in form of storage, computing, networking etc. The importance of digitalization has been realized severely with the home isolation due to COVID-19 pandemic. Researchers have suggested on planning and designing the network of Fog devices to offer services nearby the edge devices. In this work, Fog device network design is proposed for a university campus by formulating a mathematical model. This formulation is used to find the optimal location for the Fog device placement and interconnection between Fog devices and the Cloud (Centralized Information Storage). The proposed model minimizes the deployment cost and the network traffic towards Cloud. The IBM CPLEX optimization tool is used to evaluate the proposed multi-objective optimization problem. Classical multi-objective optimization method, i.e., Weighted Sum approach is used for the purpose. The experimental results exhibit optimal placement of Fog devices with minimum deployment cost.
