Abstract

A computer implemented method, system and computer program product comprising observing a mobile device'"'"'s interaction with a set of resources, and creating a usage profile for the set of resources based on the mobile devices interactions with the resources; wherein the resources are ranked by the type an frequency of interactions with the mobile device; wherein the usage profile dictates what resources of the set of resources are to be migrated to a new location when the mobile device moves to a new location.

Claims

1. A computer implemented method for use in migration of resources for a mobile device across a cloud, the method comprising:

observing a mobile device'"'"'s interaction with a set of resources; and

creating a usage profile for the set of resources based on the mobile devices interactions with the resources;

wherein the resources are ranked by the type and frequency of interactions with the mobile device;

wherein the usage profile dictates what resources of the set of resources are to be migrated to a new location when the mobile device moves to a new location.

2. The method of claim 1 further comprising:

determining the mobile device has moved to a new location; and

applying the usage profile to enable intelligent migration of resources of the set of resources to the new location.

3. The method of claim 1 further comprising:

mining the mobile device for data that is associated with the future location of the mobile device;

analyzing the mined data to determine a future location of the mobile device; and

migrating data according to the usage profile to the future location of the mobile device before the mobile arrives at the future location.

4. The method of claim 1 further comprising:

monitoring the mobile device at a second location; and

creating a second usage profile at the second location based on the monitoring and the usage profile.

5. The method of claim 4 wherein the creation of the usage profile and the second usage profile includes creating a log on the mobile device that records information about application interaction on the mobile device at the first location and the second location.

6. The method of claim 1 where the observation of the mobile device'"'"'s interaction with a set of resources includes monitoring applications on the mobile device;

and wherein creating a usage profile includes performing analysis on the monitored applications to determine which resources which applications use, and, based on the analysis, ranking the resources by priority.

7. A system comprising:

one or more processors;

a mobile device;

resources; and

computer-executable program code operating in memory, wherein the computer-executable program code is configured to enable the one or more processors to execute;

observing the mobile device'"'"'s interaction with a set of resources;

creating a usage profile for the set of resources based on the mobile devices interactions with the resources;

wherein the resources are ranked by the type an frequency of interactions with the mobile device;

wherein the usage profile dictates what resources of the set of resources are to be migrated to a new location when the mobile device moves to a new location.

9. The system of claim 7 wherein the program code is further configured to enable the one or more processors to execute:

mining the mobile device for data that is associated with the future location of the mobile device;

analyzing the mined data to determine a future location of the mobile device; and

migrating data according to the usage profile to the future location of the mobile device before the mobile arrives at the future location.

10. The system of claim 7 wherein the program code is further configured to enable the one or more processors to execute:

monitoring the mobile device at a second location; and

creating a second usage profile at the second location based on the monitoring and the usage profile.

11. The system of claim 7 where the observation of the mobile device'"'"'s interaction with a set of resources includes monitoring applications on the mobile device;

and wherein creating a usage profile includes performing analysis on the monitored applications to determine which resources which applications use, and, based on the analysis, ranking the resources by priority.

12. The system of claim 10 wherein the creation of the usage profile and the second usage profile includes creating a log on the mobile device that records information about application interaction on the mobile device at the first location and the second location.

17. The computer product of claim 12 wherein the creation of the usage profile and the second usage profile includes creating a log on the mobile device that records information about application interaction on the mobile device at the first location and the second location.

8. The system of claim 8 wherein the program code is further configured to enable the one or more processors to execute:

determining the mobile device has moved to a new location; and

applying the usage profile to enable intelligent migration of resources of the set of resources to the new location.

13. A program product comprising:

a computer-readable storage medium encoded with computer-executable program code enabling one or more processors to execute;

observing a mobile device'"'"'s interaction with a set of resources; and

creating a usage profile for the set of resources based on the mobile devices interactions with the resources;

wherein the resources are ranked by the type an frequency of interactions with the mobile device;

wherein the usage profile dictates what resources of the set of resources are to be migrated to a new location when the mobile device moves to a new location.

14. The computer product of claim 13 wherein the computer-executable program code further enables one or more processors to execute:

determining the mobile device has moved to a new location; and

applying the usage profile to enable intelligent migration of resources of the set of resources to the new location.

15. The computer product of claim 13 wherein the computer-executable program code further enables one or more processors to execute:

mining the mobile device for data that is associated with the future location of the mobile device;

analyzing the mined data to determine a future location of the mobile device; and

migrating data according to the usage profile to the future location of the mobile device before the mobile arrives at the future location.

16. The computer product of claim 13 wherein the computer-executable program code further enables one or more processors to execute:

monitoring the mobile device at a second location; and

creating a second usage profile at the second location based on the monitoring and the usage profile.

18. The computer product of claim 13 where the observation of the mobile device'"'"'s interaction with a set of resources includes monitoring applications on the mobile device;

and wherein creating a usage profile includes performing analysis on the monitored applications to determine which resources which applications use, and, based on the analysis, ranking the resources by priority.
