物聯網(IoT) 裝置透過閘道器連接至網路， 並且閘道器讓被包裝成容器的物聯網分析程式能夠轉換原始的感測器資料成為更為濃縮的處理過的資料。在這個論文裡， 我們研究兩個研究問題去最大化跑在資料中心伺服器上和閘道器上的物聯網分析程式的總體服務品質(QoS)。第一個問題是根據需要上傳的原始的感測器資料， 挑選一部分的物聯網分析程式去佈建在閘道器上，用以節省所需的上傳頻寬。第二個問題是分配剩下的上傳頻寬給所有的物聯網分析程式，用以最大化總體的服務品質。我們提出了一些演算法去解決這兩個研究問題。除此之外，我們實作了一些經典的分層替換策略並且探討了他們的表現。我們已經實作了真實的平台用以測試我們提出的系統和演算法。我們的實驗結果揭示了我們提出的演算法： (i) 運用閘道器的下載頻寬和儲存空間來節省上傳頻寬的消耗， (ii) 在沒有過載網路和閘道器的情況下，取得高服務品質級別， (iii) 在低上傳頻寬的環境下，比起其他兩個基準算法，服務品質級別分別高出了18%和37%， (iv) 在高上傳頻寬的環境下，比起其他兩個基準算法，上傳頻寬的使用率分別高出
了162%和61%。

Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices are connected to the Internet through a gateway, which can host IoT analytics encapsulated in containers to convert raw sensor data into more condensed processed data. In this thesis, we study two research problems to maximize the overall Quality-of-Service (QoS) level of all IoT analytics that run on both data center servers and gateways. The first problem is selecting additional IoT analytics to deploy on a gateway to save upload bandwidth due to uploading raw sensor data. The second problem is allocating the residue upload bandwidth among all IoT analytics to maximize the overall QoS level. We propose several algorithms to solve these two research problems. Moreover, we implement several classical layer replacement policies and discuss their performance. We have implemented real testbeds to evaluate our proposed system and algorithms. Our experiment results reveal that our proposed algorithms: (i) capitalize the download bandwidth and storage space of the gateway in order to save the upload bandwidth consumption, (ii) achieve high QoS levels without overloading the network and gateway, (iii) outperform the other two baseline algorithms by 18% and 37% in QoS levels in low upload network bandwidth environment, and (iv) outperform the other two baseline algorithms by 162% and 61% in the utilization rate of upload bandwidth in high upload network bandwidth environment.
