We present our work in the area of cyber foraging for mobile devices. The main focus of the work is to propose a framework for a scalable cyber foraging system (CFS), that could support a large number of mobile devices. In this paper, we focus on the resource monitoring process and its scalability in a large CFS. This work presents the challenges of implementing cyber foraging processes in large CFS i.e. the overhead of cyber foraging processes. We propose a Broker based framework to lower the communication overhead in the wireless network and enhance the resource monitoring time in mobile devices. Our simulation results show that a large CFS Broker based approach can lower the resource monitoring time and enhance the scalability of the process.
