  We constructed an open multi-access network platform using open-source
hardware and software. The open multi-access network platform is characterized
by the flexible utilization of network functions, integral management and
control of wired and wireless access networks, zero-touch provisioning,
intelligent resource monitoring, and dynamic task offloading. We also propose
an application-driven dynamic task offloading that utilizes intelligent
resource monitoring to ensure effective task processing in edge and cloud
servers. For this purpose, we developed a mobile application and server
applications for the open multi-access network platform. To investigate the
feasibility and availability of our developed platform, we experimentally and
analytically evaluated the effectiveness of application-driven dynamic task
offloading and intelligent resource monitoring. The experimental results
demonstrated that application-driven dynamic task offloading could reduce
real-time task response time and traffic over metro and core networks.
