I have been thinking and reading about the research challenges in IoT-specific operating systems.
One idea that I have encountered is to perform the computation outside the device on a more powerful machine. Let's say a face recognition algorithm cannot be performed on a wearable device and the wearable device needs to send (offload) this computation to a nearby machine. This can be done at the application level but also at the OS level. Let's say a remote fork API hides the complexity of creating remote process from the application programmer. I was wondering if anyone has ever worked on this subject and if the community thinks it is an interesting problem to work on at all.. If not, would you have any suggestions for the research challenges in this domain? Thanks.
