Increasing the Efficiency of Code Offloading in n-tier Environments with Code Bubbling
Florian Berg, Frank Dürr, Kurt Rothermel · 2016
Code offloading strives for increasing the energy efficiency and execution speed of mobile applications on resource-constrained mobile devices. First approaches considered only a code offloading between two (or three) tiers, executing code either locally on the mobile device or remotely on a powerful server in the vicinity or in a distant cloud. However, new execution environments comprise multiple tiers, containing highly distributed heterogeneous resources.
