Abstract

A method for mobile computing includes configuring a group of two or more base stations in a vicinity of a user equipment (UE) in a cellular communication network to serve as a femtocloud in support of application programs running on the UE. A femtocloud control program runs on a platform associated with the network. In response to a request from the UE, an application program is offloaded from the UE for execution by one or more of the base stations in the femtocloud under control of the femtocloud control program. Upon handing over radio communication with the UE from a first base station to a second base station, the execution of the offloaded application is also handed over among the base stations.
