The task assignment of distributed intrusion detection systems(DIDS) in the edge computing environment with limited node performance is a typical resource-constrained task scheduling problem. To solve this problem, a DIDS low-load task scheduling scheme based on deep reinforcement learning is proposed. The task scheduling process is first described as a Markov decision process and the relevant space and value function of the model are established to find the optimal strategy for maintaining the low-load state of the DIDS. To solve the problem of excessively large action space and high-dimensional continuity, a deep recurrent neural network is proposed to perform function fitting. The experimental results show that the proposed scheme enables the DIDS to dynamically adjust the scheduling strategy during network changes, keeping the overall system load low, and the safety indicators are not significantly reduced.
