  Edge computing facilitates low-latency services at the network's edge by
distributing computation, communication, and storage resources within the
geographic proximity of mobile and Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices. The recent
advancement in Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) technologies has opened new
opportunities for edge computing in military operations, disaster response, or
remote areas where traditional terrestrial networks are limited or unavailable.
In such environments, UAVs can be deployed as aerial edge servers or relays to
facilitate edge computing services. This form of computing is also known as
UAV-enabled Edge Computing (UEC), which offers several unique benefits such as
mobility, line-of-sight, flexibility, computational capability, and
cost-efficiency. However, the resources on UAVs, edge servers, and IoT devices
are typically very limited in the context of UEC. Efficient resource management
is, therefore, a critical research challenge in UEC. In this article, we
present a survey on the existing research in UEC from the resource management
perspective. We identify a conceptual architecture, different types of
collaborations, wireless communication models, research directions, key
techniques and performance indicators for resource management in UEC. We also
present a taxonomy of resource management in UEC. Finally, we identify and
discuss some open research challenges that can stimulate future research
directions for resource management in UEC.
