Container lifecycle management for edge nodes: poster

Internet-of-things (IoT) technology has been widely adopted in environment control and monitoring applications [2]. Many of these applications actuate in the environment based on results from data analysis that surpass the computational capacities of the IoT devices. Edge computing nodes [5] can be used to provide computational resources to end-devices in their proximity. In complex environments, a large number of devices are deployed simultaneously to support different applications, requiring the availability of several distinct runtime environments at the edge node to support different classes of requests.
