Name	Type	Description
MecOrchestrator	simple module	Models the functionalities of the MEC orchestrator within a Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) system. Specifically, it manages the dynamic instantiation and termination of MEC applications on the MEC hosts belonging to the MEC system. Upon receiving a MEC app instantiation request from the Ualcmp module, this module is responsible for selecting the MEC host on which the MEC application is to be instantiated, according to a configurable policy.
