This paper explores the distributed generation of fractal images on mobile phones using Bluetooth (JSR-82) as the inter-device communications mechanism. Mobile phones inherently have limited resources (such as memory and processing power). The aim of this paper is to demonstrate a technique; where the resources of several mobile devices can be used in conjunction. This will allow for the computation of a processor intensive task in a short period of time.
