As the multitude and complexity of the cloud market increases, the evaluation and selection of cloud services becomes a burdensome task for the users. With the extraordinary rise of available services from various Cloud Service Providers (CSPs), the role of cloud brokers has become more and more important. This paper proposes an optimal cloud broker model to address the challenge of optimally allocating...
Mobile cloud computing (MCC) is the most promising cloud solution for the future mobile environment. It aims to integrate mobile devices with cloud computing, and provide to mobile users an online access to unlimited cloud resources. Furthermore, MCC has changed the concept of mobile devices from primitive gadget to full computers that accommodate work, personal and mobility needs. Thus, in this paper...
Although extensive progress has been made in Mobile Cloud Augmentation, automated decision support on the device that enables the opportunistic and intelligent use of cloud resources is missing. Furthermore, we need solutions with reflective capabilities that can handle a changing environment and runtime variability. To simplify the deployment of smart mobile applications, we present a framework with...
Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC) combines mobile computing and cloud computing aiming to aid performance of mobile devices. The idea is simple: thin devices offload heavy methods to resource-rich servers in the clouds. We believe that in the near future MCC will adopt more advanced offloading techniques. In particular, in this paper we envision a scenario where offloading frameworks will have to deal...
With the prevalence of mobile computing and its convergence with cloud computing, there is an increasing trend of composing existing cloud services for rapid development of cloud-based mobile applications. It is vital for developers to find services not only satisfying their functionality requirements, but also meeting the requirements on non-functional quality of services (QoS). These QoS requirements,...
Mobile devices become popular with the help of hardware improvements and new functions supported by many sensors. In this paper, we propose a mobile and multi-sensing fusion platform to integrate the unstructured streaming sensing data collecting as well as processing technology and build a QoS performance model to estimate the computing resource of the platform. We also demonstrate three mobile and...
Emergency management systems deal with the dynamic processing of data, where response teams must continuously adapt to the changing conditions at the scene of the emergency. Response teams must make critical decisions in highly demanding situations using large volumes of sensor data. Mobile devices have limited processing, storage, and battery resources; therefore, the sensed data from the scene of...
Recent advances in distributed resource-constrained systems have seen the rapid growth of interest for middleware exploitation especially in mobile cloud computing. The rapid advancement of mobile cloud computing has shown that there is a high demand for mobile cloud applications. Moreover, mobile cloud computing aims to ensure that mobile devices make the best use of cloud computing resources in...
This paper discusses technical considerations of a Cloud infrastructure which interacts with mobile devices in order to migrate part of the computational overhead from the mobile device to the Cloud. The aim of the interaction between the mobile device and the Cloud is the enhancement of parameters that affect the Quality of Experience (QoE) of the mobile end-user through the offloading of computational...
Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC) is an integration of cloud computing in the mobile environment, which is used to improve the overall performance of the mobile devices. The rapid growth of cloud computing and mobile Internet services has triggered the emergence of mobile cloud services. Among many challenges, QoS management is one of the crucial issues for mobile cloud services. Here the survey of the...
Mobile/wireless networking and cloud computing are nowadays revolutionizing the ways of communication and computation and the newly founded Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC) research area is inspired by the notion of complete networking and computing environments' integration. As a result, efficient MCC resource management frameworks should simultaneously take into consideration both: a) wireless/radio...
In this paper, we address a important and still unanswered question in mobile cloud computing "how mobility impacts the distributed processing power of network and computing clouds formed from mobile ad-hoc networks ?". Indeed, mobile ad-hoc networks potentially offer an aggregate cloud of resources delivering collectively processing, storage and networking resources. We demonstrate that...
