Abstract

A result may be formatted after a task is performed in a remote processing resource in a wireless system. A wireless mobile communication (WMC) device may determine a task to be performed at a remote processing resource as part of a job the WMC device is requested to perform. Once the task is performed at the remote processing resource, formatted result is generated. The formatting of the result is based on different factors that may comprise, but not limited to, display limitations at the WMC device, power limitations at the WMC device, processing load/capability at the remote processing resource, and the connectivity limitation between the WMC device and the remote processing resource. Result formatting in such situations as internet searches may comprise generating a virtual webpage at the remote processing resource, and sending a link to this virtual webpage to the WMC device.

Claims

1. A method for processing in wireless devices, the method comprising:

transferring a task to be performed by a wireless mobile communication device to a remote processing resource; and

receiving from said remote processing resource, a result specifically formatted for said wireless mobile communication device based on current capability and resource availability of said wireless mobile communication device that is communicated between said wireless mobile communication device and said remote processing resource.

2. The method according to claim 1, wherein said specifically formatted result is based on display capabilities of said wireless mobile communication device.

3. The method according to claim 1, wherein said specifically formatted result utilizes markup language to make said specifically formatted resulted accessible by said wireless mobile communication device via a link.

4. The method according to claim 1, wherein said specifically formatted result comprises a local webpage created at said remote processing resource and accessible by said wireless mobile communication device via a web link.

5. The method according to claim 1, comprising determining said task based on connectivity capabilities and/or availability between said wireless mobile communication device and said remote processing resource.

6. The method according to claim 5, wherein said connectivity capabilities and/or availability between said wireless mobile communication device and said remote processing resource comprise available bandwidth of a wireless link that said wireless mobile communication device utilizes to communicate with said remote processing resource.

7. The method according to claim 5, wherein said connectivity capabilities and/or availability between said wireless mobile communication device and said remote processing resource comprises available quality of service (QOS) of a wireless link that said wireless mobile communication device utilizes to communicate with said remote processing resource.

8. The method according to claim 1, comprising determining said task based on power capabilities and/or availability in said wireless mobile communication device.

9. The method according to claim 1, comprising determining said task based on processing load and/or capabilities of said remote processing resource.

10. A machine-readable storage having stored thereon, a computer program having at least one code section for processing in wireless devices, the at least one code section being executable by a machine for causing the machine to perform steps comprising:

transferring a task to be performed by a wireless mobile communication device to a remote processing resource; and

receiving from said remote processing resource, a result specifically formatted for said wireless mobile communication device based on current capability and resource availability of said wireless mobile communication device that is communicated between said wireless mobile communication device and said remote processing resource.

11. The machine-readable storage according to claim 10, wherein said specifically formatted result is based on display capabilities of said wireless mobile communication device.

12. The machine-readable storage according to claim 10, wherein said specifically formatted result utilizes markup language to make said specifically formatted resulted accessible by said wireless mobile communication device via a link.

13. The machine-readable storage according to claim 10, wherein said specifically formatted result comprises a local webpage created at said remote processing resource and accessible by said wireless mobile communication device via a web link.

14. The machine-readable storage according to claim 10, wherein said at least one code section comprises code that determines said task based on connectivity capabilities and/or availability between said wireless mobile communication device and said remote processing resource.

15. The machine-readable storage according to claim 14, wherein said connectivity capabilities and/or availability between said wireless mobile communication device and said remote processing resource comprise available bandwidth of a wireless link that said wireless mobile communication device utilizes to communicate with said remote processing resource.

16. The machine-readable storage according to claim 14, wherein said connectivity capabilities and/or availability between said wireless mobile communication device and said remote processing resource comprises available quality of service (QOS) of a wireless link that said wireless mobile communication device utilizes to communicate with said remote processing resource.

17. The machine-readable storage according to claim 10, wherein said at least one code section comprises code that determines said task based on power capabilities and/or availability in said wireless mobile communication device.

18. The machine-readable storage according to claim 10, wherein said at least one code section comprises code that determines said task based on processing load and/or capabilities of said remote processing resource.

19. A system for processing in wireless devices, the system comprising:

at least one processor in a wireless mobile communication device that enables transferring of a task to be performed by said wireless mobile communication device to a remote processing resource; and

said at least one processor enables receiving from said remote processing resource, a result specifically formatted for said wireless mobile communication device based on current capability and resource availability of said wireless mobile communication device that is communicated between said wireless mobile communication device and said remote processing resource.
