Abstract

Integration between fog computing and the Internet of Things (IoT) paves the way to a plethora of promising opportunities. Device mobility might however impair fog computing benefits (e.g., low latency), which are indeed an outcome of fog proximity to end users/devices. A solution to this problem is to migrate the fog service across the fog infrastructure, thus to keep the distance to the served mobile device as low as possible. In this paper, we consider a fog service to be implemented as the combination of two containers, and we detail the demo through which we plan to show the impact of fog service migration on application performance. To this purpose, we plan to deploy an Augmented Reality (AR) application that detects vehicles in video frames and augments the latter with bounding boxes built around the detected vehicles. We offer to the audience the possibility to: (i) interact with the employed testbed by triggering device mobility; (ii) visualise the difference between migrating and not migrating the fog service in response to device mobility.
