1 Scope

The present document is a Technical Report, that is informed by the use cases described in [i.3], that analyses various deployment scenarios for systems that leverage oneM2M and MEC features. It surveys four deployment options (cloud–edge separation, co-located edge nodes, shared edge node, and tightly coupled integration), and introduces a high-level federation and orchestration framework for multi-instance environments. The present document describes service concepts: handover, swarm computing, and federated learning. It identifies illustrative architectural building blocks (e.g. Interworking Proxy Entities, Mca Proxy, Common Service Frameworks, application entities, and a oneM2M CSE as a MEC service). The content provides preliminary recommendations, example workflows, and figures to aid understanding; however it does not specify requirements, normative APIs, or protocol mappings, which are deferred to subsequent development work.
