Propose technology and management model of mobile cloud computing for the Vietnam national digital transformation program

Abstract

Cloud computing is considered a digital platform to develop mobile applications for the National Digital Transformation Program 2025 with a vision to 2030. There are many solutions to build a cloud computing platform, but those solutions consume hardware resources, high communication latency and lack of mobility, thus increasing the cost of investment in building a cloud computing platform. To address the disadvantages of the above solutions, this study proposes a mobile cloud computing model aimed at providing services that only implement on mobile devices, enhancing the calculation capacity on mobile devices, minimising resource shortages and performing efficiently for resource-intensive mobile applications. To do that, the solution proposed in this study is to enable the use of the nearest resource-rich mobile devices that can provide computing services to mobile users in the vicinity. Utilising leisure resources to serve resource-intensive mobile applications helps the government to reduce hardware investment for building cloud computing platforms. In addition, this study also proposes a management model for mobile applications through the App Store that is owned and managed by the Vietnamese government. From there, the government will monitor mobile applications and not let them develop spontaneously, causing difficulties and loss of trust for users.
