Abstract

With an explosive growth of the mobile applications and emerging of cloud computing concept, the Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC) has become a potential technology for the mobile service users. The concepts of Cloud computing are naturally meshed with mobile devices to enable on-the-go functionalities and benefits. The mobile cloud computing is emerging as one of the most important branches of cloud computing and it is expected to expand the mobile ecosystems. As more mobile devices enter the market and evolve, certainly security issues will grow as well. Also, enormous growth in the variety of devices connected to the Internet will further drive security needs. MCC provides a platform where mobile users make use of cloud services on mobile devices. The use of MCC minimizes the performance, compatibility, and lack of resources issues in mobile computing environment.
