A lightweight mobile cloud computing framework for resource-intensive mobile application / Saeid Abolfazli Torghabeh

Resource-intensive Mobile Application (RMA) execution is inhibited by mobile de- vice constrained resources, particularly CPU, RAM, storage, and battery. However, Mo- bile Cloud Computing (MCC) as the state-of-the-art mobile computing paradigm is aiming to augment computing capabilities of mobile...
