ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Mobile cloud computing has overcome several disadvantages of mobile computing such as low bandwidth, limited speed, limited storage of mobile devices, etc. Still, there are various issues where research is needed. In this chapter, various applications of mobile cloud computing are discussed. Energy efficiency, latency minimization, efficient resource management, billing, and security are challenging areas of mobile cloud computing. In this chapter, we have focused on these fields with recommended solutions.

KEY WORDS: energy, latency, pricing, resource, security.
