What is Mobile Cloud Computing? Mobile cloud computing (MCC) at its simplest, refers to an infrastructure where both the data storage and data processing happen outside of the mobile device.(MCC) Mobile cloud applications move the computing power and data storage away from the mobile devices and into powerful and centralized computing platforms located in clouds, which are then accessed over the wireless connection based on a thin native client.

Why Mobile Cloud Computing? Mobile devices face many resource challenges (battery life, storage, bandwidth etc.) Cloud computing offers advantages to users by allowing them to use infrastructure, platforms and software by cloud providers at low cost and elastically in an on-demand fashion. Mobile cloud computing provides mobile users with data storage and processing services in clouds, obviating the need to have a powerful device configuration (e.g. CPU speed, memory capacity etc), as all resource-intensive computing can be performed in the cloud.

MCC Popularity According to a recent study by ABI Research, more than 240 million business will use cloud services through mobile devices by That traction will push the revenue of mobile cloud computing to $5.2 billion. Mobile cloud computing is a highly promising trend for the future of mobile computing.

MCC Architecture

Mobile devices are connected to the mobile networks via base stations that establish and control the connections and functional interfaces between the networks and mobile devices. Mobile users’ requests and information are transmitted to the central processors that are connected to servers providing mobile network services. The subscribers’ requests are delivered to a cloud through the Internet. In the cloud, cloud controllers process the requests to provide mobile users with the corresponding cloud services.

Advantages of MCC Extending battery lifetime: Computation offloading migrates large computations and complex processing from resource-limited devices (i.e., mobile devices) to resourceful machines (i.e., servers in clouds). Remote application execution can save energy significantly. Many mobile applications take advantages from task migration and remote processing.

Advantages of MCC Improving data storage capacity and processing power: MCC enables mobile users to store/access large data on the cloud. MCC helps reduce the running cost for computation intensive applications. Mobile applications are not constrained by storage capacity on the devices because their data now is stored on the cloud.

Advantages of MCC Improving reliability and availability: Keeping data and application in the clouds reduces the chance of lost on the mobile devices. MCC can be designed as a comprehensive data security model for both service providers and users: Protect copyrighted digital contents in clouds. Provide security services such as virus scanning, malicious code detection, authentication for mobile users. With data and services in the clouds, then are always(almost) available even when the users are moving.

Advantages of MCC Dynamic provisioning: Dynamic on-demand provisioning of resources on a fine-grained, self-service basis No need for advanced reservation Scalability: Mobile applications can be performed and scaled to meet the unpredictable user demands Service providers can easily add and expand a service

Advantages of MCC Multi-tenancy: Service providers can share the resources and costs to support a variety of applications and large no. of users. Ease of Integration: Multiple services from different providers can be integrated easily through the cloud and the Internet to meet the users’ demands.

MCC Applications Mobile Commerce: M-commerce allows business models for commerce using mobile devices. Examples: Mobile financial, mobile advertising, mobile shopping… M-commerce applications face various challenges (low bandwidth, high complexity of devices, security, …) Integrated with cloud can help address these issues Example: Combining 3G and cloud to increase data processing speed and security level.

MCC Applications Mobile Learning: M-learning combines e-learning and mobility Traditional m-learning has limitations on high cost of devices/network, low transmission rate, limited educational resources Cloud-based m-learning can solve these limitations Enhanced communication quality between students and teachers Help learners access remote learning resources A natural environment for collaborative learning

MCC Applications Mobile Healthcare: M-healthcare is to minimize the limitations of traditional medical treatment (eg. Small storage, security/privacy, medical errors, …) M-healthcare provides mobile users with convenient access to resources(eg. medical records) M-healthcare offers hospitals and healthcare organizations a variety of on-demand services on clouds Examples: Comprehensive health monitoring services Intelligent emergency management system Health-aware mobile devices (detect pulse-rate, blood pressure, level of alcohol etc) Pervasive access to healthcare information Pervasive lifestyle incentive management (to manage healthcare expenses)

MCC Applications Mobile Gaming: M-game is a high potential market generating revenues for service providers. Can completely offload game engine requiring large computing resource (e.g., graphic rendering) to the server in the cloud. Offloading can also save energy and increase game playing time (eg. MAUI allows fine-grained energy- aware offloading of mobile codes to a cloud) Rendering adaptation technique can dynamically adjust the game rendering parameters based on communication constraints and gamers’ demands

MCC Applications Assistive technologies: Pedestrian crossing guide for blind and visually-impaired Mobile currency reader for blind and visually impaired Lecture transcription for hearing impaired students Other applications: Sharing photos/videos Keyword-based, voice-based, tag-based searching Monitoring a house, smart home systems …

Google Drive Google Drive is a file storage and synchronization service provided by Google, released on April 24, 2012, which enables user cloud storage, file sharing and collaborative editing. Rumors about Google Drive began circulating as early as March Files shared publicly on Google Drive can be searched with web search engines. As of October 2014, Google Drive had 240 million monthly active users. Google Drive is the home of Google Docs, Sheets and Slides, an office suite of productivity applications, that offer collaborative editing on documents, spreadsheets, presentations, drawings, forms, and more.

OneDrive, Dropbox, Google Drive, and Box: Which cloud storage service is right for you?

OneDrive (formerly SkyDrive) Where it excels OneDrive works seamlessly with Windows devices because it's baked into the Windows operating systems running on PCs, tablets, and Windows Phone. It's easy to open and edit files from OneDrive in Microsoft's other applications, such as Word or the Photos app. Since OneDrive is closely tied with Office, it's a good choice for anyone who uses Office frequently. Where it falls flat If you don't have all Windows devices, OneDrive doesn't have as much appeal. There are apps for other devices, but it's clear that OneDrive is really meant for the Windows set.

Dropbox Where it falls flat In my experience, Dropbox's Web site design is one of the weakest of the cloud storage services. It's simple and clean, but you can't control the way your files are displayed. However, you do get many more sharing options on the Dropbox Web site, which almost makes up for the bare bones design.

Google Drive Where it excels Google Drive requires very little setup if you already have a Google account. What's more, if you use Gmail, it's easy to save attachments from your directly to Drive with just a few clicks. Where it falls flat While you can organize your files and photos in Google Drive, there's no way to automatically upload photos from your phone directly to the service. Instead, Google has an Auto Backup feature in the Google+ mobile apps, which sends your photos to your Google+ profile. I'd like for Google to create a central space where I can store and upload all of my files that combines the best of Google+'s photo editing features and Google Drive's document editing tools.

Box Where it falls flat While anyone can sign up for a free individual account on Box, the service's endless list of sharing and privacy features can be lost on someone who's just using the service for personal storage. Because of all those features, it can feel overwhelming to navigate the Box Web site if you're only trying to manage a few files and folders. Best for: Teams of employees working together on projects, and large companies that need a place to securely share documents with everyone.

Copy Where it excels Copy is a simple, fast, and solid cloud storage option. You get 15GB for free, and the paid plans are inexpensive. Where it falls flat There's hardly anything negative I can say about Copy, but I will say that, like Dropbox, Copy's website is its weakest point. It's just not as easy to navigate as the desktop and mobile apps. Best for: Anyone would wants an impressive alternative to the more mainstream cloud storage options.
