Abstract

En 中文
In order to accommodate the high demand for performance in smartphones, mobile cloud computing techniques, which aim to enhance a smartphone's performance through utilizing powerful cloud servers, were suggested. Among such techniques, execution offloading, which migrates a thread between a mobile device and a server, is often employed. In such execution offloading techniques, it is typical to dynamically decide what code part is to be offloaded through decision making algorithms. In order to achieve optimal offloading performance, however, the gain and cost of offloading must be predicted accurately for such algorithms. Previous works did not try hard to do this because it is usually expensive to make an accurate prediction. Thus in this paper, we introduce novel techniques to automatically generate accurate and efficient method-wise performance predictors for mobile applications and empirically show they enhance the performance of offloading.
