【Abstract】Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) paradigm is designed to meet the user requirements by providing cloud services at the edge of the user network. Blockchain technology with the Edge Computing (EC) paradigm is reliable in delivering the edge services depending on user requirements and improving the distributed management of resources at ease. In this article, blockchain-assisted data offloading for Availability Maximization (BDO-AM) is introduced. This proposed approach is presented to thwart the non-probabilistic (NP) hardness problem of data availability due to prolonging backlogs. This approach classifies the different instances of data availability and delivery for the edge-connected end-user services/applications. The classification is preceded by using Naive Bayes' classification to identify the offloading instances to prevent unnecessary backlogs. The probability of data transmission, delivery, and offloading are independently analyzed for their likelihood, and the appropriate available time instances are allocated in a distributed manner. This validation helps to maximize data delivery by reducing the data drops and service delays.
