Abstract: Mobile cloud computing (MCC) is visualised as an encouraging approach to increase the computational capabilities of mobile devices. With the advancement of internet of things (IoT) technologies and mobile cloud, a new concept is developed called as mobile cloud IoT (MCIoT) which is the convergence of IoT and mobile cloud. In this paper, we propose a nested game theoretic technique for computation offloading algorithms. Firstly we introduce a game theoretic approach for network selection based on strategic and repeated game theory. Then, for determining the portion of application to be offloaded we use bargaining game theory based on Rubinstein-Stahl's model. Then the selection of the best cloud is analysed using auction game theory and trading market theory. Numerical results show that the proposed scheme can achieve effective computation offloading mechanism under MCIoT systems.
