In this paper a new ad-hoc model for mobile based cloud computing is proposed based on the cloudlet approach. The model is using the Destination-Sequenced Distance-Vector (DSDV) for routing protocol and Random Way Point (RWP) for mobility mechanism. The model aim at reducing the end-to-end packet delay, better system scalability and mobility management. The model is flexible with various workload sizes that are offloaded to cloudlets and for different nodes speed. It also, exploit the mobile devices ability in utilizing its context awareness such as its locations. The model is predicted to achieve a lower hand-off delay than using an enterprise cloud unless offloading small workload size.
