Han, Rui (author), Wen, Shilin (author), Liu, Chi Harold (author), Yuan, Ye (author), Wang, Guoren (author), Chen, Lydia Y. (author)Edge-cloud jobs are rapidly prevailing in many application domains, posing the challenge of using both resource-strenuous edge devices and elastic cloud resources. Efficient resource allocation on such jobs via scheduling algorithms is essential to guarantee their performance, e.g. latency. Deep reinforcement learning (DRL) is increasingly...conference paper 2022
