Abstract:
Distributed computing task costing is disclosed. Costing can be employed to determine if a task will be passed to a distributed computing cluster including mobile devices. Costing can include determining a base cost value predicated on a selectable level of utility to a user of a burdened device, a base time value related to completing the task without the use of the cluster, determining a delay cost, and any monetary costs associated with performing the task without the use of the cluster. Costing can further include demining a relief cost that can include the selectable level of utility, a relief time value related to completing the task with the cluster, the delay cost, an incentive cost based on the sum across a set of relief devices and their corresponding parameters for cluster participation, and any remaining monetary costs borne by the burdened device. Where the base cost value and relief cost value satisfies conditions, a task can be divided into subtasks that can be distributed to the cluster to accomplish the task in a distributed computing environment.

Abstract:
A method, computer readable medium and apparatus for providing a virtual individual server service within a communications network are disclosed. For example, the method receives a request from a subscriber of the communications network to subscribe to the virtual individual server service, provides a virtual individual server to the subscriber in response to the request and executes at least one application via the virtual individual server using at least one piece of personal information associated with the subscriber.

Abstract:
A mobile device including a memory including computer-executable instructions for synchronizing a virtual machine and a processor executing the computer-executable instructions, the computer-executable instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations including executing a virtual machine using a memory; executing a hypervisor providing a synchronization daemon, the synchronization daemon monitoring the memory, the synchronization daemon generating a checkpoint indicating a change in the memory; the hypervisor initiating transmission of the change in the memory over a wireless network for delivery to a standby mobile device to synchronize the virtual machine on the standby mobile device.
