Mobile computing is a critical technology area which is actively integrated with field of cloud computing. It is broadly an application of virtualization technology at both ends of client server architecture. The mobile and cloud computing is a natural combination as mobile devices have limited computing and storage capacity, thus to reap the benefits of high end computing, cloud is the answer. Thus, amalgamation of mobile platform with cloud platform is inevitable. This chapter shall deliberate on the various aspects of mobile computing, mobile cloud computing and its relationship with virtualization technology. The detailed integration aspects and virtualization shall be signified through case study and suitable real time examples. The chapter shall envisage a case study, modeling the virtualization in the context of mobile cloud.

Mobile Health (mHealth) applications (apps) are being widely used to monitor health of patients with chronic medical conditions with the proliferation and the increasing use of smartphones. Mobile devices have limited computation power and energy supply which may lead to either delayed alarms, shorter battery life or excessive memory usage limiting their ability to execute resource-intensive functionality and inhibit proper medical monitoring. These limitations can be overcome by the integration of mobile and cloud computing (Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC)) that expands mobile devices' capabilities. With the advent of different MCC architectures such as implementation of mobile user-side tools or network-side architectures it is hence important to decide a suitable architecture for mHealth apps. We survey MCC architectures and present a comparative analysis of performance against a resource demanding representative testing scenario in a prototype mHealth app. This work will compare numerically the mobile cloud architectures for a case study mHealth app for Endocrine Hormonal Therapy (EHT) adherence. Experimental results are reported and conclusions are drawn concerning the design of the prototype mHealth app system using the MCC architectures.
