Edge computing paradigm showing the integration of WSI scanners with edge nodes and connected cloud. Edge computing is situated between the cloud and connected to smart end-devices where intermediary compute elements (Edge nodes) provide data management and communications services with low latency and real-time interactions to facilitate the execution of relevant applications. The devices have local computing capability with ubiquitous accessibility, as well as limited storage and processing. The cloud has unlimited storage and processing with high performance, availability, and latency [Last cited on 2020 Nov 13]
