Abstract
Techniques for temporarily and/or partially offloading mobile applications to one or more remote virtual machines in a server include establishing an application copy of a mobile application installed on a mobile device at a remote virtual machine, suspending the mobile application on the mobile device and offloading operations of the mobile application to the application copy at the remote virtual machine for a period of time. Suspending the mobile application and offloading its operations to the remote virtual machine for the period of time reduces consumption of resources on the mobile device. The virtual machine executes the application copy in the same manner the mobile device would execute the mobile application and transfers data from the execution to the mobile application at the end of the period of time to allow the mobile application to update itself and resume its operation without any loss of data or functionality.
