Abstract
Edge computing plays an important role in processing and storing data. By offloading tasks to the edge server, mobile users can access necessary computing resources on demand. However, security of edge computing service is still a major concern. This paper proposes an edge computing resource allocation mechanism based on dynamic trust. First, security problems due to lack of reliability in the resource allocation process are solved based on the trust mechanism. This mechanism considers the resource allocation process between the mobile user node and the edge server as a transaction, according to the trading behavior in the transaction process of server to give its corresponding trust. Second, a trust mechanism is used for dynamic credit granting. Mobile users with similar behaviors form a group, where a representative is elected to trade resources and bundle information into a block and attach it on the chain. At the same time, the delay problem is added as a constraint to the trust calculation. Finally, the simulation experiment shows that the mechanism improves security of edge computing.
