Internet of Things (IoT) devices can integrate with applications requiring intensive contextual data processing, intelligent vehicle control, healthcare remote sensing, VR, data mining, traffic management, and interactive applications. However, there are computationally intensive tasks that need to be completed quickly within the time constraints of IoT devices. To address this challenge, researchers have proposed computation offloading, where computing tasks are sent to edge servers instead of being executed locally on user devices. This approach involves using edge servers located near users in cellular network base stations, and also known as Mobile Edge Computing (MEC). The goal is to offload tasks to edge servers, optimizing both latency and energy consumption. The main objective of this paper mentioned in the summary is to design an algorithm for time- and energy-optimized task offloading decision-making in MEC environments. Therefore, we developed a Lagrange Duality Resource Optimization Algorithm (LDROA) to optimize for both decision offloading and resource allocation for tasks, whether to locally execute or offload to an edge server. The LDROA technique produces superior simulation outcomes in terms of task offloading, with improved performance in computation latency and cost usage compared to conventional methods like Random Offloading, Load Balancing, and the Greedy Latency Offloading scheme.
