Thin apps store for smart phones based on private cloud infrastructure

Abstract

A novel approach to implement cloud computing for smart phone devices has been presented based on Eucalyptus, an open source cloud-computing framework that provides infrastructure as a service (IaaS). It has full support of Virtualization and is Amazon Web Services interface compatible. A private cloud has been designed using Eucalyptus to develop a smart phone application store. The architecture, physical and network implementation of Eucalyptus Private Cloud on Intel based platform has been discussed in details. We have developed two sample thin applications for mobile based on mobile learning that can be downloaded from our private cloud using Amazon Web Services Platform (PaaS). These thin apps use the private cloud as computing platform, and perform better even on low processing smart phones
