Fundamental research challenges for distributed computing continuum systems. Information. 2023 Mar 22;14(3):198. DOI: 10.3390/info140301982078-2489http://hdl.handle.net/10230/71600This article discusses four fundamental topics for future Distributed Computing Continuum Systems: their representation, model, lifelong learning, and business model. Further, it presents techniques and concepts that can be useful to define these four topics specifically for Distributed Computing Continuum Systems. Finally, this article presents a broad view of the synergies among the presented technique that can enable the development of future Distributed Computing Continuum Systems.application/pdfeng© 2023 by the authors.
