MecResponseApp

simple module

This module provides a simplified model of an edge application, intended to run on an edge host associated with a base station. It receives requests from a User Equipment (UE) application, such as a MecRequestApp, and sends a response after a processing time. The processing time is calculated based on the size of the request packet and a value representing the computational capabilities of the node hosting this application module. If the UE that sends the request is not served by the base station associated with this application, then an additional delay is applied to the response, which represents the time required to traverse the cellular core network.
