“…Although distributing mobile applications is not a new concept and has been previously used for application distribution and load balancing (Jin et al 2011;Yang et al 2008), it has not been used for offloading the execution tasks of mobile Web services to run remotely on other mobile devices. A mobile cloud computing framework that addresses these distribution mechanisms and allows distributed execution in a homogeneous manner was defined in AlShahwan and Faisal (2014) to facilitate the lightweight provisioning of complex mobile Web services through service fragmentation and distribution, thus reducing the individual MHs' energy usage and increasing the range and complexity of services that can be executed/ provided on MHs. The developed mobile cloud provides users with automatic and autonomous self-configuring distributed systems through existing public domain infrastructure, platform, and software services.…”

Providing Web services from the mobile cloud is a current research topic. The mobile cloud provides the computing resources and infrastructure to support the seamless provision of Web services in a lightweight manner. Security has become a major concern with the emergence of mobile cloud Web services. In this paper, we investigate the security aspects of a system for complex mobile Web service provisioning. We characterize the security requirements of the individual components and present a security framework to provide authentication and confidentiality between clients and mobile hosts. Our solution is based on the use of existing security protocols between clients and the mobile hosts as well as a key management protocol between the individual mobile hosts implementing an out-of-band key exchange that is simple in practice, flexible and secure. We examine the performance of this approach by evaluating a prototype implementation of our security framework.

“…The third trend is based on consuming other mobile resources and implementing peer-topeer networking, as in Marinelli (2009). This trend can be used to support the provisioning of mobile Web services as described in AlShahwan and Faisal (2014). The main structure of the mobile cloud, as shown in Fig.…”

e ad hoc mobile cloud (AMC) allows mobile devices to connect together through a wireless connection or any other means and send a request for web services from one to another within the mobile cloud. However, one of the major challenges in the AMC is the occurrence of dissatisfaction experienced by the users. is is because there are many services with similar functionalities but varying nonfunctional properties. Moreover, another resultant cause of user dissatisfaction being coupled with runtime redundancy is the attainment of similar quality computations during service selection, often referred to as "service selection ties." In an attempt to address this challenge, service selection mechanisms for the AMC were developed in this work.is includes the use of selected quality of service properties coupled with user feedback data to determine the most suitable service. ese mechanisms were evaluated using the experimental method.e evaluation of the mechanisms mainly focused on the metrics that evaluate the satisfaction of users' interest via the quantitative evaluation. e experiments affirmed that the use of the shortest distance can help to break selection ties between potential servicing nodes. Also, a continuous use of updated and unlimited range of users' assessments enhances an optimal service selection.

“…Request permissions from Permissions@acm.org. The high performance mobile devices are capable of establishing a distributed computing network group to collaborate for some tasks [1]. For example, mobile users may partition complex computational tasks into several smaller task chunks from their mobile devices and distribute the task chunks to the mobile devices of their real world friends when their friends' mobile devices are in idle (or in charge) mode assuming resources of these devices are capable of handling the allocated tasks.…”

Mobile devices are capable of acting as smart assistances not only to serve their users but also to collaborate with each other remotely via wireless Internet to accomplish common goals. The latter is achieved by establishing a Social Private Cloud (SPC). SPC is a cluster formed by a scalable group of social network participants using their mobile devices that are capable of providing their resources to accomplish computational tasks. In this paper, we propose a workflow-based SPiCa framework that enables task delegation in SPC. In order to support adaptive task scheduling based on resource availabilities, a resource-aware task scheduling scheme has been proposed and implemented as a proof of concept. The evaluation demonstrates that the framework is capable of dynamically reacting to runtime changes in order to adjust the task delegation process.
