Intelligent distribution of computer tasks on edge computing devices

A computer system for automatically selecting a computing device, among a plurality of computing devices in a collaborative computing environment, to offload and process a computer task, comprising:

• one or more processors, one or more computer-readable memories, one or more computer-readable tangible storage devices, and program instructions stored on at least one of the one or more storage devices for execution by at least one of the one or more processors via at least one of the one or more memories, wherein the computer system is capable of performing a method comprising:
• automatically identifying an off-loadable computer task to be offloaded from a first computing device to a second computing device from the plurality of computing devices, wherein the plurality of computing devices comprises a combination of stationary edge computing devices and moving edge computing devices;
• determining a scheduled time for processing the identified off-loadable computer task and an amount of time necessary for processing the off-loadable computer task;
• based on the identified off-loadable computer task, the scheduled time, and the determined amount of time for processing the identified off-loadable computer, automatically identifying one or more available computing devices from the plurality of computing devices for processing the identified off-loadable computer task, whereby identifying the one more available computing devices further comprises detecting and correlating computer resource information, location and network information, and travel information associated with each computing device from the plurality of computing devices with the scheduled time and the amount of time necessary for processing the identified off-loadable computer task;
• and
• in response to automatically identifying the one or more available computing devices for processing the identified off-loadable computer task, selecting the computing device from the one or more available computing devices for processing the off-loadable computer task, wherein in response to selecting a moving edge computing device, coordinating the scheduled time and the amount of time for processing the identified off-loadable computer task with a determined travel plan associated with the selected moving edge computing device.

A computer program product for automatically selecting a computing device, among a plurality of computing devices in a collaborative computing environment, to offload and process a computer task, comprising:

• one or more tangible computer-readable storage devices and program instructions stored on at least one of the one or more tangible computer-readable storage devices, the program instructions executable by a processor, the program instructions comprising:
• automatically identifying an off-loadable computer task to be offloaded from a first computing device to a second computing device from the plurality of computing devices, wherein the plurality of computing devices comprises a combination of stationary edge computing devices and moving edge computing devices;
• determining a scheduled time for processing the identified off-loadable computer task and an amount of time necessary for processing the off-loadable computer task;
• based on the identified off-loadable computer task, the scheduled time, and the determined amount of time for processing the identified off-loadable computer, automatically identifying one or more available computing devices from the plurality of computing devices for processing the identified off-loadable computer task, whereby identifying the one more available computing devices further comprises detecting and correlating computer resource information, location and network information, and travel information associated with each computing device from the plurality of computing devices with the scheduled time and the amount of time necessary for processing the identified off-loadable computer task;
• and
• in response to automatically identifying the one or more available computing devices for processing the identified off-loadable computer task, selecting the computing device from the one or more available computing devices for processing the off-loadable computer task, wherein in response to selecting a moving edge computing device, coordinating the scheduled time and the amount of time for processing the identified off-loadable computer task with a determined travel plan associated with the selected moving edge computing device.
