Resource-constrained embedded and mobile devices are
becoming increasingly common. Cyber foraging, which allows
such devices to offload computation to less resource-constrained
surrogate machines, enables new and interesting
applications for these devices. In this paper we describe
a surrogate infrastructure based on virtual machine technology
that allows resource-constrainted devices to utilize
a surrogate’s compute, network, and storage resources. After
describing the design of our surrogate infrastructure, we
demonstrate how it can be used to support real-time speech
recognition and a synthetic web services application. Using
a surrogate reduces the response time of speech recognition
by a factor of 200 while reducing the energy drain on the
client device by a factor of 60. Using a surrogate reduces
the response time and energy drain on the client by factors
of 21 and 25, respectively, for the web services application.
