Abstract

Cloud Computing represents an attractive and cost-efficient of server-based computing and application service provider models. Together with Cloud Computing development, we have witnessed the rapid increasing of mobile devices industry. Smart-phone is now a well-functioning system of GPS navigation, 3G/4G mobile network, wifi technology and much more. By using Cloud Computing, traditional mobile applications often involve with many Cloud Services such as online data storage, collaboration, real-time monitoring, web, email, push messaging, database processing, compute processing and so on. As the extension of mobile applications, real-time location tracking and messaging system has become particularly important. In this paper, we present a cloud-based real-time location tracking and messaging system (CRLTMS), that consists a cloud-based push messaging service, namely Google Cloud Messaging (GCM), web server, database and GPS navigation data. An Android-based child-care application case study shows that the effectiveness of the system, which enables the server tracks and communicates synchronously to smart-phones in real-time manner.
