Smartphones are not capable of competing against their desktop counterparts or servers in terms of CPU speed, battery, memory and storage. However, a mobile device can transparently use cloud resources by employing an offloading mechanism. Offloading enables mobile devices to run computation intensive applications such as object recognition, Optical Character Recognition (OCR) and augmented reality. In this paper, an Inversion of Control (IoC) based offloading technique is proposed in order to overcome shortcomings and limitations of current approaches in the literature. A sample application has been implemented by using the proposed technique. The results show that the proposed offloading technique leads to energy savings of 66% to 81% and execution time savings by 76% to 81% with a small computational overhead.

An adaptive mobile cloud computing framework using a call graph based model Kaya, Mahir; Koçyiğit, Altan; Eren, Pekin Erhan (2016-04-01) The use of mobile applications and their functionality are increasing day by day but mobile devices are still inferior to ordinary computers in terms of memory and processor capacity. Furthermore, the rapid depletion of the mobile devices' energy is still a major problem. Performance and energy shortcomings of mobile devices can be improved by using surrogate or cloud computing technologies. In particular, computation and memory intensive real time applications would be efficiently run by utilizing the reso...
A Self-Cloning Agents Based Model for High-Performance Mobile-Cloud Computing Angın, Pelin; Jin, Zhongjun (2015-07-02) The rise of the mobile-cloud computing paradigm in recent years has enabled mobile devices with processing power and battery life limitations to achieve complex tasks in real-time. While mobile-cloud computing is promising to overcome the limitations of mobile devices for real-time computing, the lack of frameworks compatible with standard technologies and techniques for dynamic performance estimation and program component relocation makes it harder to adopt mobile-cloud computing at large. Most of the avai...
A reconfigurable computing platform for real time embedded applications Say, Fatih; Halıcı, Uğur; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2011) Today’s reconfigurable devices successfully combine ‘reconfigurable computing machine’ paradigm and ‘high degree of parallelism’ and hence reconfigurable computing emerged as a promising alternative for computing-intensive applications. Despite its superior performance and lower power consumption compared to general purpose computing using microprocessors, reconfigurable computing comes with a cost of design complexity. This thesis aims to reduce this complexity by providing a flexible and user friendly dev...
An agent-based optimization framework for mobile-cloud computing Angın, Pelin (2013-01-01) The proliferation of cloud computing resources in the recent years offers a way for mobile devices with limited resources to achieve computationally intensive tasks in real-time. The mobile-cloud computing paradigm, which involves collaboration between mobile and cloud resources, is expected to become increasingly popular in mobile application development. Dynamic partitioning of applications between mobile and cloud platforms based on resource availability is crucial in achieving the best performance for a...
A Dynamic memory manager for FPGA applications/ Özer, Cenk; Bazlamaçcı, Cüneyt Fehmi; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2014) Recently, FPGAs are shipped with a large amount of internal memory (block RAM) sufficient to perform many complex computations without a need for off-chip memory. However, block RAMs (BRAMs) of FPGAs should be used efficiently especially for computations that need dynamic management of the memory. Thus, within the scope of this thesis work, a dynamic memory manager (DMM) unit is designed with an objective of meeting memory requests with a low fragmentation at runtime for FPGA applications. The unit is desig...
