  Fog computing is an emerging research field for providing cloud computing services to the edges of the network. Fog nodes process data stream and user requests in real-time. In order to optimize resource efficiency and response time, increase speed and performance, tasks must be evenly distributed among the fog nodes. Therefore, in this paper, a new method is proposed to improve the load balancing in the fog computing environment. In the proposed algorithm, when a task is sent to the fog node via mobile devices, the fog node using reinforcement learning decides to process that task itself, or assign it to one of the neighbor fog nodes or cloud for processing. The evaluation shows that the proposed algorithm, with proper distribution of tasks between nodes, has less delay to tasks processing than other compared methods. Manuscript profile
