Condor is a distributed batch system for sharing the workload among the computers connected by a network. Condor distributed system was developed on the basis that every machine in a Condor pool is always connected by a network to run a Condor Job. Due to advances in wireless communication and mobile computing technology, conventional distributed computer systems can now include "mobile" clients as well as "fixed" clients. Moreover, mobile users want to be as low power as possible and benefit from offloading potentially power and resource consuming jobs. In this paper, we describe the design and implementation of extended Condor to support mobile clients. The main purpose of this work is to enable users on mobile computers to interact with Condor environment any time anywhere regardless of their connection to a Condor pool. The mobile Condor distributed system also aims to provide mobile users the same Condor services without making any significant changes to the existing Condor system.
