Abstract
An ad-hoc computation system is formed from one or more clusters of idle mobile computing resources to execute an application program within a given time period. The forming step further comprises: (i) determining at least a subset of idle mobile computing resources from the one or more clusters of idle mobile computing resources that are available, or likely to be available, to execute the application program within the given time period, and that collectively comprise computing resource capabilities sufficient to execute the application program within the given time period; and (ii) distributing a workload associated with the execution of the application program to the subset of idle mobile computing resources. The workload associated with the application program is executed via the subset of idle mobile computing resources forming the ad-hoc computation system.
