Software Architecture Strategies for Cyber-Foraging Systems
Grace Alexandra Lewis
Grace Alexandra Lewis Software Architecture Strategies for Cyber-Foraging Systems Cyber-foraging — the leverage of proximate servers to augment the computation and
storage capabilities of resource-limited mobile devices — has tremendous poten- tial for supporting mobile computing at the edge. With increasing number of mobile devices and users, increased network traffic cause by trends in the Internet of Things (IoT), and increasing complexity of an always-connected-user experience, there is reason to believe that cyber-foraging will become a standard feature of mobile applications. However, while there is a large amount of research in cyber-foraging, the reality is that there are not many deployed, operational cyber-foraging systems.
As these systems become more prevalent due to their proven benefits, in terms of energy efficiency, reduced latency, and increased availability, combined with the emer- gence of micro data centers and edge clouds, a need will arise for guidance on their architecture and development.
Grace Alexandra Lewis (1968) was born in Elizabeth, New Jersey USA. She obtained her B.Eng. in Software Systems Engineering at Icesi University in Cali, Colombia in 1991. She later obtained a Specialization in Business Administration from Icesi Univer- sity in 1997, and then a Master in Software Engineering from Carnegie Mellon Univer- sity in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania USA in 2001. Her work experience started in software development in industry, from developer, to software architect, to chief of software development. She currently conducts research at the Carnegie Mellon Software En- gineering Institute in the areas of mobile cloud computing and software architecture.
