Mobile cloud learning, a combination of mobile learning and cloud computing, is a relatively new concept that holds considerable promise for future development and delivery in the education sectors. Cloud computing helps mobile learning overcome obstacles related to mobile computing. The main focus of this paper is to explore how cloud computing changes traditional mobile learning. A case study of the usage of Moodle in the cloud via mobile learning in Khalifa University was conducted.

Abstract-Since the 21st century, with the development of high technologies, such as Internet, tablets, and smartphones, there are more innovative ways to learn English. For example, people are able to use technologies to send messages, present ideas or share information anytime, anywhere. However, most of the mobile apps for English learning purposes in Taiwan are designed and presented in English interface. This is good for high level students, but the low level students may feel difficult and frustrated. Hence, the paper presents a pilot study and aims to develop a mobile app to improve college students' English vocabulary learning with both English and Chinese descriptions. The NGSL list is used as the content in the app, and the researcher designs twenty-four vocabulary learning units for students to use in one academic year. Students are expected to learn thirty words every week. Moreover, the words are presented both in English and Chinese because the target group is low-level students (CEF A2 level). In addition, the questionnaires were used to collect students' opinions toward the app. During this pilot study and with the use of mobile app, it is hoped that students' learning motivation can be increased and the self-study habits can be built.Index Terms-English vocabulary learning, mobile apps, NGSL.

Based on the study of traditional min-min scheduling algorithm, the paper proposed a min-min task scheduling algorithm based on QOS constraints in cloud computing. According to the vector which is generated by QOS parameters, the algorithm processes the matching of resources and tasks, and then provides users with resources which meet their requirements. Experimental results show that the min-min task scheduling algorithm for cloud computing has better performance in such aspects as task execution time, rate of discarding task and QOS satisfaction compared with traditional min-min scheduling algorithm.
