摘要：The ever increasing demands for using resource-constrained mobile devices for running more resource intensive applications nowadays has initiated the development of cyber foraging solutions that offloadparts or whole computational intensive tasks to more powerful surrogate stationary computers and run them on behalf of mobile devices as required. The choice of proper mix of mobile devices and surrogates has remained an unresolved challenge though.In this paper, we propose a new decision- making mechanism for cyber foraging systems to select the best locations to run an application, based on context metrics such as the specifications ofsurrogates, the specifications of mobile devices, application specification, and communication network specification. Experimental results show faster response time and lower energy consumption of benched applications compared to when applications run wholly on mobile devices andwhen applications are offloaded to surrogates blindly for execution
