Abstract

In a distributed mobile computing environment (DMC), managing resources is an important problem. If it is not done in an intelligent manner, many devices may die early because of the limited energy capacity of the devices thus overall system may fail to complete tasks/work by their deadline and failing to satisfy users. This research assumes a cell-based environment and the mobile devices in this environment are heterogeneous (i.e., different CPU speed, different limited battery capacity, different mobility), and different tasks have affinity to different devices and have deadlines that must be met. To use the devices' energy efficiently, dynamic voltage scaling and variable-range transmission power control techniques are applied. This paper will provide an insight on how to utilize a cell-based environment for distributed mobile computing purposes and discuss methods of resource management techniques crucial to the operation of such system.
