Abstract
SummaryThere is an abundant expansion in the race of technology, specifically in the production of data, because of the smart devices, such as mobile phones, smart cards, sensors, and Internet of Things (IoT). Smart phones and devices have undergone an enormous evolution in a way that they can be used. More and more new applications, such as face recognition, augmented reality, online interactive gaming, and natural language processing are emerging and attracting the users. Such applications are generally data intensive or compute intensive, which demands high resource and energy consumption. Mobile devices are known for the resource scarcity, having limited computational power and battery life. The tension between compute/data intensive application and resource constrained mobile devices hinders the successful adaption of emerging paradigms. In the said perspective, the objective of this article is to study the role of computation offloading in mobile cloud computing to supplement mobile platforms ability in executing complex applications. This article proposes a systematic approach (EFFORT) for offload communication in the cloud. The proposed approach provides a promising solution to partially solve energy consumption issue for communication‐intensive applications in a smartphone. The experimental study shows that our proposed approach outperforms its counterparts in terms of energy consumption and fast processing of smartphone devices. The battery consumption was reduced to 19% and the data usage was reduced to 16%.
Highlights
Technological advancements in the field of ICT causes an explosive growth in the number of mobile devices accessing the wireless network
We propose an Energy eFFicient framewORk for offload communicaTion (EFFORT) in mobile cloud computing for communication offloading used for communication intensive applications that we believe will significantly reduce energy footprint for two main reasons
The turnaround time includes [22]: (a) time taken to maintain the states of running instances of offloaded applications, (b) time to transfer the clone from a mobile device to the cloud, (c) time to download the clone at server, (d) time taken to set the preferences of mobile application to server node, (e) time to configure the clone to the server node, and (f) time to send the result to the mobile device
Summary
The goal is to facilitate the users to communicate effectively and efficiently To address such communication intensive nature of applications, various solutions are proposed at different. We propose an Energy eFFicient framewORk for offload communicaTion (EFFORT) in mobile cloud computing for communication offloading used for communication intensive applications that we believe will significantly reduce energy footprint for two main reasons. To demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of our proposed approach, we developed a prototype application and benchmark it is using different Android devices in a real mobile cloud environment. Our Contributions: The main contributions of this research paper are as follows: a) Introducing a novel mechanism for efficient communication intensive applications on smartphones and analyzing them by identifying its requirements and crucial issues.
