System, methods, and other embodiments described herein relate to improving scheduling tasks within an edge-computing environment. In one embodiment, a method includes, upon establishing a communication connection with a vehicle by an edge device of the edge-computing environment, collecting offloading information about the vehicle including task information describing at least a vehicle task that is to be offloaded to the edge device and context information about aspects relating to operation of the vehicle. The method includes triggering offloading of the vehicle task to the edge device in response to determining that at least the context information satisfies a scheduling threshold. The method includes providing, by the edge device, a result of executing the vehicle task to the vehicle.
