Abstract

In various embodiments, a computer-implemented method includes identifying data files in external storage, where the data files correspond to a computer software application (application) on a mobile device and where the data files were previously stored on the mobile device. The method may also include sorting the data files into different access levels, where the access levels designate a hierarchy for the data files. The method may also include predicting the sorted data files that will be accessed on the mobile device using a prediction engine. The method may also include locating, in response to the predicting, the predicted data files in the external storage. The method may also include migrating the predicted data files from the external storage to the mobile device, where the migrating is done in order of the access levels.
