Mobile Internet Computing Architecture Based on Cloud Computing Guoyong Wang and Wen Cui
Abstract Cloud computing for mobile devices is a very appealing and potentially lucrative trend. The purpose of cloud computing is to merge several low cost computing units to one higher level system with strong computing ability. This paper consider privacy and other concerns related to mobile cloud computing. We propose an architecture of mobile internet computing base on cloud computing. These issues could cause a barrier to widespread use of mobile cloud computing and methods for resolving these issues could accelerate its adoption. Keywords Architecture • Cloud computing • Mobile cloud computing

Introduction
Cloud computing is a general concept in which services do not depend on the end users’ physical locations or configuration of their systems that deliver the services. It is an innovative product based on existing techniques such as grid computing, distributed computing, parallel computing, utility computing, network storage technologies, virtualization, load balance, etc. The purpose of cloud computing is to merge several low cost computing units to one higher level system with strong computing ability and deliver some specified techniques (Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), Software as a Service (SaaS)) to end users. In the case of mobile cloud computing an additional significant benefit is brought to the table. Many mobile devices have significant constraints imposed upon them because of the importance and desirability of smaller sizes, lower weights, longer battery life and other features. This often severely constrains hardware and software

development for these devices. Cloud computing allows devices to avoid these constraints by letting the more resource intensive tasks be performed on systems without these constraints and having the results sent to the device. Thus, cloud computing for mobile devices is a very appealing and potentially lucrative trend.

Cloud Computing
The ‘cloud’ was used as a metaphor for the Internet especially for telephone networks and later used to describe the Internet in computer network diagrams and the infrastructure it conceals. Many organizations and researchers have defined the architecture for cloud computing. Basically the whole system can be divided into the core stack and the management. In the core stack, there are three layers: (1) Resource, (2) Platform, and (3) Application. The resource layer is the infrastructure layer which is composed of physical and virtualized computing, storage and networking resources.
