The rapid growth of Internet of Vehicles (IoV) applications has imposed strict requirements on low-latency and energy-efficient computing services. This letter investigates a multi-Uncrewed Aerial Vehicle (UAV)-assisted IoV system, where multiple Mobile Edge Computing (MEC)-enabled UAVs (MUs) collaboratively provide computing services for vehicular terminals (VTs). To improve service capability, we propose an energy-efficient task offloading and load balancing scheme that jointly considers vehicle mobility, task offloading and migration, and computing resource allocation to formulate an optimization problem. To solve this problem, a collective learning (CL)-enabled multi-agent reinforcement learning (CL-MARL) algorithm is proposed, where each agent learns optimal policies through centralized training and collective cooperative learning. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme outperforms benchmark strategies in terms of energy efficiency, task completion rate, and load balancing.
A Prioritized Adaptive Weighting based on Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (PAW-DDPG) as an enhanced Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (DDPG) algorithm to minimize both processing delay and energy consumption by jointly optimizing user scheduling, partial-task offloading, and UAV trajectory is proposed.
