Abstract

Despite the increasing capabilities, mobile devices still cannot satisfy the computation requirement of many applications. Intuitively, this can be solved by outsourcing tasks to external resources such as a remote server, cloud, or closely deployed cloudlet. However, all of them require extra infrastructures. In this paper, we consider a proximate-mobile-device based communication system in which all tasks and resources are under the control of a central scheduler. We propose a friendship-based task scheduling algorithm to address the contentions when resources are not sufficient. We also present two attack models including the denial-of-service (DoS) attack and the collusion attack. We evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm along with another contribution-based task scheduling algorithm through extensive experiments.
