Abstract(in English) In recent years, many different new network-oriented services has developed, and Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) is standardized to improve the responsiveness of services. When deploying services in MEC environment, to consider a service structure that can switch service behaviors flexibly to meet various users' demands and can change the service behavior to real-world environment at low implementation cost is needed.In this paper, we introduce a Core/Periphery structure, which is known as a model for a flexible behavior of biological systems, of service components, and design and implement a network-oriented mixed reality service based on the Core/Periphery structure. We investigated what kind of functions can be developed due to users' demands, real environment where devices are placed, and the development of new devices. Then, to utilize the flexibility of the Core/Periphery structure, we regarded functions whose behaviors do not change even when users' demands or environmental changes occurs as core functions, and others as peripheral functions. Our experiment reveals that the implementation cost is reduced while increase of service response time is less than 5.7 [ms]. This result shows that taking advantage of Core/Periphery structure enables to divide service functions appropriately and place the functions in MEC environment appropriately, with a little penalty on latency and with low implementation cost.
