MUMBAI, India, Oct. 26 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611100498 A) filed by Madan Mohan Malaviya University Of Technology on August 19, 2026, for A Computer-Implemented System For Encrypted Chunk Distribution And Incentive-Driven Decentralized Cloud Storage On Mobile Devices.
Inventors include Manish Kumar Gupta; Dr. Ninni Singh; Prof. Rakesh Kumar; Dr. Raj Kumar; Dr. Amit Kumar Dwivedi; and Sanjay Kumar.
The application for the patent was published on October 23, 2026, under issue no. 43/2026.
Abstract: A computer-implemented system (100) and method provide secure, energy-efficient decentralized cloud storage using underutilized storage on mobile devices. A file processing module (102) splits files into fixed-size chunks and encrypts them using AES-256 GCM encryption. A device health monitoring module (104) evaluates candidate mobile storage nodes (106) based on battery level, available storage, and network speed using a weighted scoring algorithm. A chunk distribution module (108) uploads encrypted chunks and redundant replicas across selected nodes (106) and updates a global metadata database layer (110). A failover and recovery module (112) provides automated re-replication upon node failure and interfaces with an emergency static backup layer (114). An incentive management system (116) charges renters and rewards lender mobile storage nodes (106) based on contributed storage, uptime, and dynamic pricing tiers.
