The mobile device has been widely used in many areas. Task offloading is always used to overcome the limitation of processing ability and energy-supply of the mobile devices in the mobile cloud environment. Most researches suppose we know the detail of task (number of instructions) of every sub-task. But most of time, to get the detail of a task is very difficult. This paper uses the grey number to express that uncertain information and propose method to evaluate the performance of offloading tasks. Simulations show that our method selects the solution with the lowest energy consumption.
