1. A method for wireless communication, comprising:
- determining at an edge computing device an operating context of a small cell, wherein a base station of the small cell is co-located with the edge computing device;
retrieving content from a network to the edge computing device based at least in part on the operating context and on a likelihood of reusability of the content; and
storing the content at the edge computing device for subsequent access by a mobile device in the small cell.

Abstract
An example method includes determining an operating context of a small cell, wherein a base station of the small cell is co-located with an edge computing device. The method may further retrieving content from a network to the edge computing device based at least in part on the operating context and storing the content at the edge computing device for subsequent access by a mobile device in the small cell.
