Abstract

Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) is an inventive paradigm for computing that has the potential to notably diminish latency and energy consumption by transferring computationally demanding jobs to edge clouds near intelligent mobile users. This investigation aims to reduce offloading and latency between multiple users and edge computing in the context of Internet of Things (IoT) applications in the fifth generation (5G) by utilizing an optimization algorithm called the Bald Eagle Search Optimization Algorithm. Although employing deep learning methods might increase time consumption and computational complexity, an edge computing system enables devices to transfer their demanding jobs to edge servers, decreasing latency and conserving energy. The Bald Eagle Algorithm (BES) is an advanced optimization algorithm inspired by eagle hunting strategies and consists of select, search, and swoop stages. A resource estimation stage is introduced to select the most suitable resources to enhance the BES algorithm further. By transferring the most appropriate Internet of Things subtasks to edge servers, the edge system minimizes the anticipated execution time. To attain rapid and nearly optimal IoT device performance, a Bald Eagle Search Optimization Algorithm is suggested based on multiuser offloading. Edge computing effectively diminishes latency, surmounting the limitations of cloud-based processing. The BES algorithm outperforms existing methods, such as Deep-Q-Network (DQN) and Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (DDPG), to lessen offloading latency. Finally, simulations are carried out to exhibit the attained power efficiency and stability by mitigating offloading latency.

Reason for Retraction

This article has been retracted at the request of the Editorial Office, following an internal investigation conducted in accordance with the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE) Retraction Guidelines.

The investigation identified serious concerns affecting the integrity and reliability of the published work. Specifically, one or more of the following issues were confirmed:

  1. Undisclosed use of computer-generated text and/or data, in which substantial portions of the content were produced using algorithmic or artificial intelligence–based tools without transparent disclosure, contrary to the journal's authorship and transparency policies.

  2. Compromised peer-review process, indicating irregularities that undermine the validity, independence or authenticity of the review procedure.

  3. Inappropriate or misleading citations, including references that are irrelevant, improperly used, or appear to artificially inflate citation metrics, thereby distorting the scholarly record.

  4. Authorship-related concerns, including the addition of new author(s) at a later stage of the publication process without adequate justification, documentation, or transparent disclosure, raising unresolved questions regarding author contributions, responsibility, and compliance with the journal's authorship criteria.

The Editorial Office determined that these issues significantly compromise the scientific integrity of the article, and that correction alone would be insufficient to address the concerns. Retraction was therefore deemed necessary to maintain the accuracy and trustworthiness of the scholarly record.

The authors were informed of the findings and the retraction decision. While the authors do not respond to this retraction, the journal has proceeded with the retraction in line with COPE guidance, which permits retraction without author consent when editorial integrity is at risk.

This retraction is issued to alert readers that the findings and conclusions of the article should not be relied upon. The original article will remain accessible for the sake of the scholarly record, but it will be clearly marked as retracted.

Apologies are offered to readers of the journal that this was not detected during the submission process.
