Despite its advantages, when a large number of mobile users simultaneously offloads their computation tasks to an edge server, due to the limited computation and communication resources of edge server, inefficiency resource allocation will not make full use of the limited resource and cause waste of resource, resulting in low system performance (the weighted sum of the number of processed tasks, the number of punished tasks, and the number of dropped tasks). Therefore, it is a challenging problem to effectively allocate the computing and communication resources to multiple mobile users. To cope with this problem, we propose a performance-aware resource allocation (PARA) scheme, the goal of which is to maximize the long-term system performance. More specifically, we first build the multiuser resource allocation architecture for computing workloads and transmitting result data to mobile devices. Then, we formulate the multiuser resource allocation problem as a Markova Decision Process (MDP). To achieve this problem, a performance-aware resource allocation (PARA) scheme based on a deep deterministic policy gradient (DDPG) is adopted to derive optimal resource allocation policy. Finally, extensive simulation experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the PARA scheme.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2020\/2765491","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,7,2]],"date-time":"2020-07-02T23:31:50Z","timestamp":1593732710000},"page":"1-17","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Deep Reinforcement Learning for Performance-Aware Adaptive Resource Allocation in Mobile Edge Computing"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2020","author":[{"given":"Binbin","family":"Huang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Computer, Hangzhou Dianzi University, Hangzhou, 310018, China"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4319-324X","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Zhongjin","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Computer, Hangzhou Dianzi University, Hangzhou, 310018, China"}]},{"given":"Yunqiu","family":"Xu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Software, University of Technology Sydney, Ultimo, NSW 2007, Australia"}]},{"given":"Linxuan","family":"Pan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory for Novel Software Technology, Software Institute, Nanjing University, Nanjing, China"}]},{"given":"Shangguang","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Networking and Switching Technology, Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications, Beijing, China"}]},{"given":"Haiyang","family":"Hu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Computer, Hangzhou Dianzi University, Hangzhou, 310018, China"}]},{"given":"Victor","family":"Chang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Computing, Engineering and Digital Technologies, Teesside University, Middlesbrough, UK"}]}],"member":"311","reference":[{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"1","DOI":"10.1109\/TWC.2017.2717986"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"2","DOI":"10.1016\/j.comcom.2018.11.011"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"4","DOI":"10.1109\/TMC.2019.2891736"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"8","DOI":"10.1109\/JIOT.2018.2875917"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"9","DOI":"10.1109\/TCOMM.2019.2935717"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"10","DOI":"10.1109\/TWC.2016.2633522"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"12","DOI":"10.1109\/JSAC.2018.2872396"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"13","DOI":"10.1109\/LCOMM.2018.2882846"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"14","DOI":"10.1109\/TWC.2019.2927313"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"15","DOI":"10.1109\/JSAC.2018.2815360"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"16","DOI":"10.1109\/TWC.2018.2845360"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"18","DOI":"10.1109\/JSTSP.2019.2893057"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"21","DOI":"10.1109\/TCOMM.2017.2787700"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"22","DOI":"10.1109\/jiot.2017.2786343"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"23","DOI":"10.1109\/TVT.2018.2881191"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"26","DOI":"10.1109\/TMC.2016.2538227"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"27","DOI":"10.1109\/TWC.2017.2785305"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"29","DOI":"10.1109\/TVT.2019.2924015"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"30","DOI":"10.1109\/JSAC.2017.2760186"},{"doi-asserted-by":"publisher","key":"32","DOI":"10.1155\/2019\/3816237"}],"container-title":["Wireless Communications and Mobile Computing"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/wcmc\/2020\/2765491.pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/wcmc\/2020\/2765491.xml","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/wcmc\/2020\/2765491.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2020,7,2]],"date-time":"2020-07-02T23:31:58Z","timestamp":1593732718000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.hindawi.com\/journals\/wcmc\/2020\/2765491\/"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2020,7,2]]},"references-count":20,"alternative-id":["2765491","2765491"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1155\/2020\/2765491","relation":{},"ISSN":["1530-8669","1530-8677"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"1530-8669"},{"type":"electronic","value":"1530-8677"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2020,7,2]]}}}
