Investigation into Mobile Learning Framework in Cloud Computing Platform
AbstractâCloud computing infrastructure is increasingly
used for distributed applications. Mobile learning
applications deployed in the cloud are a new research
direction. The applications require specific development
approaches for effective and reliable communication. This
paper proposes an interdisciplinary approach for design and
development of mobile applications in the cloud. The
approach includes front service toolkit and backend service
toolkit. The front service toolkit packages data and sends it
to a backend deployed in a cloud computing platform. The
backend service toolkit manages rules and workflow, and
then transmits required results to the front service toolkit.
To further show feasibility of the approach, the paper
introduces a case study and shows its performance

An Implementation of Membrane Computing Using Reconfigurable Hardware
Because of their inherent large-scale parallelism, membrane computing models can be fully exploited only through the use of a parallel computing platform. We have fully implemented such a computing platform based on reconfigurable hardware that is intended to support the efficient execution of membrane computing models. This computing platform is the first of its type to implement parallelism at both the system and region levels. In this paper, we describe how our computing platform implements the core features of membrane computing models in hardware, and present a theoretical performance analysis of the algorithm it executes in hardware. The performance analysis suggests that the computing platform can significantly outperform sequential implementations of membrane computing as well as Petreska and Teuscher's hardware implementation, the only other complete hardware implementation of membrane computing in existence
