Claim:
1. A method executable by a computing device comprising: receiving registration information of a mobile device with a IP multimedia subsystem (IMS) network using IMS semantics via a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) registration process; receiving the registration information of the mobile device with a presence server using information packaged in a presence document, wherein the presence document comprises device status and presence of the mobile device; processing the presence document at a distributed network for future workload management decisions; managing workload for distributed network computing by utilizing the processed presence document to determine whether the mobile device is available to process the workload; sending, via the IMS network using SIP, a workload request in the form of a presence notification to the mobile device based on the registration with the IMS network, wherein the presence notification includes data for retrieving the workload and provides for ad hoc leveraging of computing power from the mobile device, which was not formally part of the distributed network prior to receiving the presence notification; providing instructions and content for the workload to the mobile device, based on the workload request, for assisting in the distributed network computing; and performing the workload on the mobile device after the providing the workload to the mobile device.
