Description

This paper introduces the ACCORDION framework, a novel framework for the management of the cloud-edge continuum, targeting
the support of NextGen applications with strong QoE requirements. The framework addresses the need for an ever expanding and heterogeneous pool of edge resources in order to deliver the promise of ubiquitous computing to the NextGen application clients. This endeavor entails two main technical challenges. First, to assure interoperability when incorporating heterogeneous infrastructures in the pool. Second, the management of the largely dynamic pool of edge nodes. The optimization of the delivered QoE stands as the core driver to this work, therefore its monitoring and modelling comprises a core part of the conducted work. The paper discusses the main pillars that support the ACCORDION vision, and provide a description of the three planned use case that are planned to demonstrate ACCORDION capabilities.
