FogTorch inputs the specification of a Fog infrastructure I along processing (CPU cores, RAM, storage) and QoS (latency, bandwidth) capabilities, and the specification of an application A to be deployed, along with needed IoT devices, processing (CPU cores, RAM, storage) and QoS (latency, bandwidth) requirements.
The output is either one or all eligible deployments of A on I that meet all processing and QoS constraints.
