Application computation offloading for mobile edge computing

At least one non-transitory machine-readable medium comprising instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to perform operations to:

• identify a set of available radio access technologies that provide an edge computing device with connectivity to a network of an edge computing system;
• determine power consumption parameters for respective radio access technologies of the set of available radio access technologies;
• identify application requirements of at least one application task of at least one application, the application requirements configured to indicate requirements to perform computational offloading of the at least one application to respective nodes available using respective radio access technologies of the set of available radio access technologies;
• select a radio access technology from the set of available radio access technologies based on the power consumption parameters of the selected radio access technology;
• and
• select a node of the respective nodes for computational offloading based on the application requirements, wherein the computational offloading causes transfer of the at least one application task to the selected node for execution using the selected radio access technology.
