An Intelligent Edge Computing Framework for Secure, Low-Latency, and Energy-Efficient Smart Devices

Abstract

This paper presented an Intelligent Edge Computing Framework for Secure, Low-Latency, and Energy-Efficient Smart Devices that integrates edge intelligence, adaptive task scheduling, resource-aware computation, secure communication, and cloud-assisted services to address the limitations of conventional cloud-centric architectures. By processing data closer to smart devices, the proposed framework significantly reduces latency, minimizes network bandwidth consumption, improves resource utilization, and enables faster real-time decision-making while ensuring data privacy and security. The experimental results demonstrate superior performance in terms of classification accuracy, ROC-AUC, Average Precision, execution time, and computational efficiency compared with existing cloud-based and edge computing approaches. The proposed framework provides a scalable, reliable, and energy-efficient solution for diverse Internet of Things (IoT) applications, including smart healthcare, industrial automation, intelligent transportation, and smart homes. Future work will focus on integrating federated learning, blockchain-enabled security, and next-generation 6G edge intelligence to further enhance scalability, privacy preservation, and autonomous decision-making in large-scale smart device ecosystems.
