Abstract

Nowadays, due to the explosive increase of mobile devices and data traffic, various innovative technologies have been developed to transfer data more efficiently by the use of large quantities of mobile devices connected with each other. However, as mobile devices have limitations in terms of computing power, memory, storage, communications and battery capacity, the computation-intensive tasks are hard to be handled locally.
