USER EQUIPMENT (UE) TRIGGERED EDGE COMPUTING APPLICATION CONTEXT RELOCATION

Abstract:

Systems and methods for user equipment (UE) triggered edge computing application context relocation in an edge computing application architecture are described. For example, in facilitating relocation of an application context from a source edge application server (S-EAS) served by a source edge enabler server (S-EES) to a target EAS (T-EAS) served by a target EES (T-EES), S-EES centric and/or T-EES centric UE triggered application context relocation procedures may be implemented. In accordance with S-EES centric and/or T-EES centric UE triggered application context relocation procedures of some examples, a UE may take primary responsibility with respect to the application context transfer. Other aspects and features are also claimed and described.
