As technology is advancing, applications are becoming diverse and demanding with the rise of global trends. New innovative services are unfolding, many of which are extremely sensitive to delay and yet require extensive computational and radio resources. Moreover, the explosive growth in the number of mobile devices and diverse wireless services is overloading existing networks. To meet these unprecedented traffic demands, the research community is currently actively involved in the design of the key components that will lead to the development of next-generation communication systems with the ability to accommodate heterogeneous data traffic, massive connections and high loads with ultra-fast speeds. This presentation discusses the evolution of wireless communication systems and emerging technologies while highlighting the new application trends and the main challenges faced by existing wireless systems. Joint computing and communication resource management solutions are proposed in comprehensive multi-layer device-to-device (D2D) enabled heterogeneous mobile edge computing (MEC) where multiple edge servers, cloud and peer mobile terminals cooperate to enhance system performance. The vision towards the next generation of communication systems and the main key components involved in shaping future technologies and services will be explored in the most recent research areas in communications.
