The Effect Of Data Marshalling On Computation Offloading Decisions, Julio Alberto Reyes Muñoz
Open Access Theses & Dissertations
Computation offloading consists in allowing resource constrained computers, such as smartphones and other mobile devices, to use the network for the remote execution of resource intensive computing tasks in powerful computers. However, deciding whether to offload or not is not a trivial problem, and it depends in several variables related to the environment conditions, the computing devices involved in the process, and the nature of the task to be remotely executed. Furthermore, it comprises the optimal solution to some questions, like how to partition the application and where to execute the tasks.
The computation offloading decision problem has been widely …
