Edge computing has become lost in the sea of buzzwords. Not over at Nokia however, which has tested applications based on Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC).
Set against the backdrop of the University of Notre Dame, Nokia and the university’s Wireless Institute set out to test wifi with two MEC-based applications; Edge Video Orchestration (EVO) and Augmented Reality (AR), using Nokia’s AirFrame server. The trial also tested the MEC applications with a feature enabling connective to multiple radios, optimizing data flow through wifiand cellular networks.
