Abstract: There are currently more mobile devices than people on the planet. This number is likely to multiply many folds with the Internet of Things revolution in the next few years. This may treasure an unprecedented computational power especially with the wide spread of multicore processors on mobile phones. This paper investigates and proposes a new methodology for mobile cluster computing, where multiple mobile devices including their multicore processors can be combined to perform possibly massively parallel applications. The paper presents in details the steps for building and testing the mobile cluster using the proposed methodology and proving the successful implementation.
