DATA7: a dataset for assessing resource and application management solutions at the edge

This paper presents a dataset on edge devices and mobility patterns to comprehensively understand user behaviour and devices workload in Edge computing environments. The dataset is built on top of a publicly available dataset of cellular tower locations to simulate Edge devices, and on user mobility trajectories generated by a state-of-the-art simulator based on real location maps in the area of the city of Pisa, Italy. The resulting dataset reports the amount of vehicles in the range of about 200 Edge devices for each step of the simulation. The dataset can be used for various applications in edge computing and mobility, most notably for assessing results on resource and application management solutions at the edge in a realistic environment.
