Abstract

Mobile devices are pursuing the succession of desktop PCs these days. Cyber Foraging is the project that investigated overcoming scarce computing resources and reducing the power consumptions of mobile devices. In this paper, we propose a framework for remote execution of mobile devices in the way of delivering user data and invoking and manipulating the software of a surrogate with VNC-style interface. This resource furnishing system has the merits of remote application execution, and automatic file transfer. Remote execution is provided via VNC-style interface that is user-friendly. Performance evaluation shows the feasibility of the resource furnishing system, for both data transfers over wired and wireless network.
