That said, recent studies show that users download on average zero new applications on monthly basis, which suggests that new apps can face discoverability issues. In this work, we aim for a web-based, download/installation-free access to native application features through microservices (? Services)that are shared between user devices in a peer-to-peer (P2P)manner. Such a P2P approach is self-scalable and requires no investment for ? Service deployment, unlike mobile edge computing or Data Centre. We introduce DEEM, a DEvice Edge Market design that enables device-hosted ?Services to end-users. In DEEM, ? Service-based markets act as rendezvous points between available ? Service instances and clients. DEEM ensures the i) assignment of instances to the users that value them the most, in terms of QoS gain, and ii) devices' income maximisation. Our evaluation on synthetic settings demonstrates DEEM's capability in exploiting the pool of device instances for improving the application QoS in terms of latency.
