Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention provide computer-implemented methods, computer program products, and computer systems. Embodiments of the present invention can dynamically determine an optimal embedded subscriber identification module (eSIM) configuration of respective edge devices connected to a network. Embodiments of the present invention can then dynamically change a data plan associated with the eSIM of respective edge devices connected to the network such that activity can be executed with required quality by the respective edge devices based on contextual need of data processing, volume of data transfer, and speed of data transfer among the respective edge devices.
Claims17
A computer-implemented method comprising:
- dynamically determining an optimal embedded subscriber identification module (eSIM) configuration of respective edge devices interconnected via a network by:
- identifying a context associated with a received processing task for edge processing, and
- predicting a data volume associated with the received processing task for edge processing based on the identified context, and
- apportioning processing responsibilities between the respective edge devices based on the identified context, predicted data volume, and speed of data transfer among the respective edge devices such that the received processing task is processed between the respective edge devices;
- and
- dynamically changing transmission rates of the eSIM of respective edge devices connected to the network during the processing task such that activity can be executed with required quality by the respective edge devices based on the dynamically determined optimal embedded subscriber identification (eSIM) configuration.
A computer program product comprising:
- one or more computer readable storage media and program instructions stored on the one or more computer readable storage media, the program instructions comprising:
- program instructions to dynamically determine an optimal embedded subscriber identification module (eSIM) configuration of respective edge devices interconnected via a network by:
- identifying a context associated with a received processing task for edge processing, and
- predicting a data volume associated with the received processing task for edge processing based on the identified context, and
- apportioning processing responsibilities between the respective edge devices based on the identified context, predicted data volume, and speed of data transfer among the respective edge devices such that the received processing task is processed between the respective edge devices;
- and
- program instructions to dynamically change rates of the eSIM of respective edge devices connected to the network during the processing task such that activity can be executed with required quality by the respective edge devices based on the dynamically determined optimal embedded subscriber identification (eSIM) configuration.
A computer system comprising:
- one or more computer processors;
- one or more computer readable storage media;
- and
- program instructions stored on the one or more computer readable storage media for execution by at least one of the one or more computer processors, the program instructions comprising:
- program instructions to dynamically determine an optimal embedded subscriber identification module (eSIM) configuration of respective edge devices interconnected via a network by:
- identifying a context associated with a received processing task for edge processing, and
- predicting a data volume associated with the received processing task for edge processing based on the identified context, and
- apportioning processing responsibilities between the respective edge devices based on the identified context, predicted data volume, and speed of data transfer among the respective edge devices such that the received processing task is processed between the respective edge devices;
- and
- program instructions to dynamically change rates of the eSIM of respective edge devices connected to the network during the processing task such that activity can be executed with required quality by the respective edge devices based on the dynamically determined optimal embedded subscriber identification (eSIM) configuration.
