A Survey On Ad-hoc Mobile Cloud Computing Modeling Using Cloudlet Approach

Mobile Cloud Computing is one of the most important branches of cloud computing. MCC can be defined as cloud computing extended by mobility, and a new ad-hoc infrastructure based on mobile devices. It is deployed for various purposes in area where mobile nodes are free to move to any location. Such locations can be made to have Local cloud Data Center known as Cloudlet that can communicate with set of mobile nodes. The MCC model based on cloudlet approach is flexible with various workload sizes that can be offloaded to the cloudlets by mobile nodes when required. The ability of the mobile devices will be exploited in utilizing its context awareness such as its locations. Infrastructure as a service would be provided by cloudlets to the mobile nodes that will be connected to it. In this paper we have reviewed different papers on Mobile Cloud Computing Approaches.
