As mobile computing evolves, the demand for local execution of complex optimization tasks has grown significantly. This paper empirically analyzes the performance gap between brute-force search and genetic algorithms on a mid-range mobile SoC (MediaTek Dimensity 700). We utilize the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) as a benchmark to demonstrate the "complexity wall" inherent in deterministic methods. Our results show that while brute-force execution time grows factorially, reaching a critical bottleneck of 17.46 seconds at n = 10 cities, heuristic approaches maintain sub-second latency (0.04s). The findings confirm that heuristic optimization is essential for real-time edge intelligence on resource-constrained devices.
KEYWORDS
This case study highlights the absolute necessity of heuristic optimization for mobile edge computing. The MediaTek Dimensity 700 inside the Realme 8 5G is a highly capable processor, but even modern ARM hardware cannot overcome the mathematical reality of O(n!) time complexity. Deterministic algorithms reach a critical bottleneck at just 10 nodes (17.46s). Therefore, developers designing mapping, routing, or optimization software for local execution on smartphones must implement heuristic models like Genetic Algorithms to maintain sub-second responsiveness and preserve user experience.
