Abstract
The previous chapters in this lecture have focused on the use of surrogates for offloading computation from mobile computers. However, the original visions for cyber foraging [Balan et al., 2002; Satyanarayanan, 2001] posited a broader use of remote infrastructure in which surrogates also improve data transfers between mobile computers and the cloud by temporarily staging data in transit. This chapter explores this second use case.
