Title
Energy-efficient fault-tolerant data storage & processing in dynamic networks
Abstract
With the advance of mobile devices, cloud computing has enabled people to access data and computing resources without spatiotemporal constraints. A common assumption is that mobile devices are well connected to remote data centers and the data centers securely store and process data. However, for systems like mobile cloud deployed in infrastructureless dynamic networks (i.e., with frequent topology changes because of node failure/unavailability and mobility), reliability and energy efficiency remain largely unaddressed challenges. To address these issues, we develop the first 'k-out-of-n computing' framework that ensures nodes retrieve or process data stored in mobile cloud with minimum energy consumption as long as k out of n storage/processing nodes are accessible. We demonstrate the feasibility and performance of our framework through both hardware implementation and extensive simulations.
