Offloading is a useful approach to save energy and time for mobile devices by migrating heavy computation to remote powerful servers. However, the unreliable wireless network constrains the implementation of offloading applications. The execution continuity is always interrupted by network failures. To deal with this problem, locally re-executing the pre-determined offloading task in the mobile device is a valid method. Challenges arise due to the best trade-off between costs and benefits of Local Re-execution. In this paper, using a Stochastic Activity Network model, we defined three metrics to investigate the performance of Local Re-execution, which is launched by different timeout values. Through comprehensively comparing the simulation results, we further explored the optimal timeout value for activating Local Re-execution, and reached the conclusion that the optimum is mainly controlled by the delay of network recovery. |
