ECOS - Practical Mobile Application Offloading for Enterprises

Explore a conference talk on ECOS (Enterprise-Centric Offloading System), a practical solution for mobile application offloading in enterprise environments. Delve into the challenges of data privacy, trusted resource utilization, and scalable offloading for diverse handheld devices. Learn how ECOS addresses these issues through a centralized controller that opportunistically leverages various compute resources while maintaining strict control over application offloading based on privacy, performance, and energy constraints. Discover the design, implementation, and effectiveness of ECOS through a wide range of experiments using a real prototype. Gain insights into mobile device trends, remote computation design, and the roadblocks to offloading adoption in enterprise settings.
