Summary:Motivated by the group-buying behaviors in recent years, we suggest that Mobile Users (MUs) to gather in Access Point (AP) and bid for a cloudlet in a grouped way. In this paper, we proposed TACD, a three-stage auction to inspire cloudlets sharing their resources and manage the deal between MU, AP and cloudlet, which is efficient, flexible and truthful. This incentive mechanism aims at optimizing the social welfare, and ensures that all kinds of participants (MU, AP, cloudlet) can benefit from this auction. We also proposed TACDp, an improved algorithm base on TACD, which social welfare is markedly improved.
