Abstract
Convergence of recent advances in mobile high performance computing (HPC) and mobile ad hoc networks is termed as `tactical cloudlet´. A fully realized tactical cloudlet concept provides a unique capability for the military and this capability would be powerful not only in enabling highly mobile, highly responsive, and quickly deployable tactical forces but also enhancing soldiers´ situational awareness through real-time on demand data analytics. However, significant technical and research challenges remain before this realization is viable. Addressing the technical challenges of tactical cloudlets in harsh military environments is a significant task that will require the invention and adoption of new technologies.
