Abstract
A data center includes processing devices and a mobile device. The processing devices are configured to determine a suitability grade, receive another suitability grade from another processing device via a wireless interface connection, determine that the suitability grade is higher than the other suitability grade, and provide an indication to the other processing device that the processing device is a master processing device in response to determining that the suitability grade is higher than the other suitability grade. The mobile device sets up another wireless interface connection with a first one of the processing devices, determines that the first processing device is a master processing device, and provides an update for another one of the processing devices to the first processing device in response to determining that the first processing device is the first master processing device. The processing device is further configured to provide the update to the other processing device.
