Résumé

Collaborative mobile computing is today one of the most popular paradigms of computing because of its impact on the performance and expansion of distributed systems and therefore on the development of Internet of Things. Due to the rapid progress in technologies of communication and smart mobile devices with the growing trend towards its use, many architectures of mobile collaborative computing have emerged to improve and organize the expand of Internet of Things, such as Cloud, Cloudlet, Fog, Edge, Mobile Edge, Mobile Cloudlet Computing, etc. In this paper, we first review their current layered architectural models and discuss their limits and challenges. Then, we will present a new architectural model: Collaborative Autonomous Networks of Mobile Devices Using Peer-to-Peer Communication that can be applied in many areas. Finally, a scenario of an emergency situation is presented to illustrate and highlight its requirements, such as supporting connectivity and engineering of data and services. Also, how the rescue process is addressing across different architecture layers.
