Abstract


This systematic review paper delves into the evolving landscape of cloud architectures for distributed edge computing, with a particular focus on decentralized and collaborative computing models. The aim of this systematic review is to synthesize recent advancements in decentralization techniques, collaborative scheduling, federated learning, and blockchain integration for edge computing. As edge computing becomes increasingly vital for supporting the Internet of Things (IoT) and other distributed systems, innovative strategies are needed to address challenges related to latency, resource management, and data security.The key findings highlight the benefits of latency-aware task management, autonomous serverless frameworks, and the collaborative sharing of computational resources. Additionally, the integration of federated learning and blockchain technologies offers promising solutions for enhancing data privacy and resource allocation. The versatility of edge computing is showcased through its applications in diverse domains, including healthcare and smart cities. Future research directions emphasize the need for optimized resource management, improved security protocols, standardization efforts, and application-specific innovations. By providing a comprehensive review of these developments, this paper underscores the critical role of decentralized and collaborative models in advancing the capabilities and efficiency of edge computing systems.
