ABSTRACT:
Mobile devices such as netbooks and smart phones,have made computing ubiquitous. However such battery powered devices often have limited computing power for the benefit of an extended runtime. Offloading is an effective method for extending the lifetime of mobile devices by executing some partitioned components of applications remotely(eg.,on the server in a data center or in a cloud). To achieve energy saving while satisfying the given constraints, such as execution time, many partitioning and offloading algorithms have been presented. In this presentation, I will briefly talk about some of these algorithms.
