Mobile devices, systems, and methods for end-user transparent utilization of computational, storage, and network capacity of mobile device are described herein. A communication interface may be responsive to a request for a resource from a network of mobile devices. A database may store mobile device information and, in response to the request, identify at least one mobile device having the resource. A virtual machine dispatcher may generate a command to a virtual machine dispatch agent of the at least one mobile device to create a virtual machine to perform the resource.

Apparatus for end-user transparent utilization of computational, storage, and network capacity of mobile devices, and associated methods

Methods and apparatus to a cross-layer approach to virtualized overlay on ad hoc networks are described. In one embodiment, a virtual address may be used to search for a (key,value) pair in a virtual overlay. Other embodiments are also described.

Cross-layer approach to virtualized overlay on ad hoc networks

Mobile devices, systems, and methods enable individual mobile devices and network services to utilize idle mobile computer resources through virtualization and wireless mesh networking in a manner that is transparent to users. Other embodiments include apparatus and systems of devices for dispatching virtual node modules to perform service functions.

Methods and apparatus relating to a cross-layer approach for virtualized overlay on ad hoc networks are described. In one embodiment, a virtual address is used to search for a (key,value) pair in a virtual overlay. In an embodiment, a route request for a virtual address, corresponding to a key, is transmitted via a wireless network to one or more of a plurality of computing nodes forming a virtual search overlay and route reply for the virtual address is generated in response to the route request. Other embodiments are also described.
