Abstract

Systems and methods of social caching for device resource sharing and management are disclosed. In one embodiment, a system includes a local proxy which wirelessly accesses the physical storage of other device via a wireless network to cache the response or content for the mobile device, in response to detecting commonalities between the mobile device and the other device. The commonalities can include, for example, common interests in users of the mobile device and the other device.
