Abstract
Methods and systems associated with personal cloud computing (PCC) are disclosed herewith. In embodiments, a method may include receiving, by a PCC client device, a message from a PCC server. The message may include information for migrating a session of an application executing on another PCC client device off the other client device. In response, an application may be launched, by the client device, to migrate the session onto the client device, using the information included in the message. In embodiments, a PCC server may be configured to receive a request from a PCC client device to migrate a session of an application executing on the client device off the client device; and in response, to send a message to another PCC client device equipped to launch an application on the other client device to migrate the session onto the other client device. The message may include information for the migration. Other embodiments are also disclosed and claimed.
