Abstract

This paper introduces a quantum-enhanced edge computing framework that synergizes quantum-inspired algorithms with advanced machine learning techniques to optimize real-time task offloading in edge computing environments. This innovative approach not only significantly improves the system’s real-time responsiveness and resource utilization efficiency but also addresses critical challenges in Internet of Things (IoT) ecosystems—such as high demand variability, resource allocation uncertainties, and data privacy concerns—through practical solutions. Initially, the framework employs an adaptive adjustment mechanism to dynamically manage task and resource states, complemented by online learning models for precise predictive analytics. Secondly, it accelerates the search for optimal solutions using Grover’s algorithm while efficiently evaluating complex constraints through multi-controlled Toffoli gates, thereby markedly enhancing the practicality and robustness of the proposed solution. Furthermore, to bolster the system’s adaptability and response speed in dynamic environments, an efficient monitoring mechanism and event-driven architecture are incorporated, ensuring timely responses to environmental changes and maintaining synchronization between internal and external systems. Experimental evaluations confirm that the proposed algorithm demonstrates superior performance in complex application scenarios, characterized by faster convergence, enhanced stability, and superior data privacy protection, alongside notable reductions in latency and optimized resource utilization. This research paves the way for transformative advancements in edge computing and IoT technologies, driving smart edge computing towards unprecedented levels of intelligence and automation.
