Dynamic Content and Failure Aware Task Offloading in Heterogeneous Mobile Cloud Networks

Abstract

This paper study the aware failure task offloading in the dynamic mobile cloud environment. Task offloading is a method which allows resource-constraint mobile devices offload compute-intensive tasks of application to the precious resource cloud computing. However, the content of the wireless network (e.g., bandwidth, signal and noise) often change; therefore, communication failure usually occurs. To deal with the dynamic content and failure of the network, we devise the Dynamic Content Aware Task Offloading Algorithm (DCTOA) and Failure Aware Algorithm (FAA) schemes. DCTOA adopts dynamic changes of the network contents, and performance evaluation shows that it outperforms existing static task offloading schemes.
