Restricted abilities of mobile devices in terms of storage, computation, time, energy supply, and transmission causes issues related to energy optimization and time management while processing tasks on mobile phones. This issue pertains to multifarious mobile device-related dimensions, including mobile cloud computing, fog computing, and edge computing. On the contrary, mobile devices’ dearth of storage and processing power originates several issues for optimal energy and time management. These problems intensify the process of task retaining and offloading on mobile devices. This paper presents a novel task scheduling algorithm that addresses energy consumption and time execution by proposing an energy-efficient dynamic decision-based method. The proposed model quickly adapts to the cloud computing tasks and energy and time computation of mobile devices. Furthermore, we present a novel task scheduling server that performs the offloading computation process on the cloud, enhancing the mobile device’s decision-making ability and computational performance during task offloading. The process of task scheduling harnesses the proposed empirical algorithm. The outcomes of this study enable effective task scheduling wherein energy consumption and task scheduling reduces significantly.

The mobile devices are termed to highly potential due to their capability of rendering services without being plugged to the electric grid. These device are becoming highly prominent due to their constant progress in computing as well as storing capacities and as they are very much closer to the users. Despites its advantages it still faces many problems due to the load balancing and energy consumption due to its limited battery limited and storage availability as some applications or the video downloading requires high storage facilities consuming majority of the energy in turn reducing the performance of the mobile devices. So as to improve the performance and the capability of the mobile devices the mobile cloud computing that integrates the mobile devices with the cloud paradigm has emerged as a promising paradigm. This enables the augmentation of the local resources for the mobile devices to enhance its capabilities in order to improve its functioning. This is basically done by proper offloading and resource allocation. The proposed method in the paper utilizes the optimal offloading strategy (Single and double strand offloading) and follows an Ant colony optimization based resource allocation for improving the functioning the mobile devices in terms of energy consumption and storage.

With the increasing number of mobile devices and IoT devices across a wide range of real-life applications, our mobile cloud computing devices will not cope with this growing number of audiences soon, which implies and demands the need to shift to fog computing. Task scheduling is one of the most demanding scopes after the trust computation inside the trustable nodes. The mobile devices and IoT devices transfer the resource-intensive tasks towards mobile cloud computing. Some tasks are resource-intensive and not trustable to allocate to the mobile cloud computing resources. This consequently gives rise to trust evaluation and data sync-up of devices joining and leaving the network. The resources are more intensive for cloud computing and mobile cloud computing. Time, energy, and resources are wasted due to the nontrustable nodes. This research article proposes a multilevel trust enhancement approach for efficient task scheduling in mobile cloud environments. We first calculate the trustable tasks needed to offload towards the mobile cloud computing. Then, an efficient and dynamic scheduler is added to enhance the task scheduling after trust computation using social and environmental trust computation techniques. To improve the time and energy efficiency of IoT and mobile devices using the proposed technique, the energy computation and time request computation are compared with the existing methods from literature, which identified improvements in the results. Our proposed approach is centralized to tackle constant SyncUPs of incoming devices’ trust values with mobile cloud computing. With the benefits of mobile cloud computing, the centralized data distribution method is a positive approach.

Task Offloading

Mobile devices are supporting a wide range of applications irrespective of their configuration. There is a need to make the mobile applications executable on mobile devices without concern of battery life. For optimizing mobile applications computational offloading is highly preferred. It helps to overcome the severity of scarce resources constraint mobile devices. In offloading, which part of the application to be offloaded, on which processor and what is available bandwidth rate are the main crucial issues. As subtasks of mobile applications are interdependent, efficient execution of application requires research of favorable wireless network conditions before to take the offloading decision. Broadly in mobile cloud computing the applications is either delay sensitive or delay tolerant. For delay sensitive applications completion time has the highest priority whereas for delay tolerant type of applications depending on the network conditions decision of offloading can be taken. Sometimes, computation time on a cloud server is less but it consumes high communication time which ultimately gives inefficient offloading results. To address this issue, we have proposed a heuristic based level wise task offloading (HTLO). It includes computation time, communication time and maximum energy available on the mobile device to take the decision of offloading. For simulation study, a mobile application is considered as a directed graph and all the tasks are executed on the basis of their levels. The overall results of the proposed heuristic approach are compared with state-of-the-art K-M LARAC algorithm and results show the improvement in execution time, communication time, mobile device energy consumption and total energy consumption.

Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC)’s rapid technological advancements facilitate various computational-intensive applications on smart mobile devices. However, such applications are constrained by limited processing power, energy consumption, and storage capacity of smart mobile devices. To mitigate these issues, computational offloading is found to be the one of the promising techniques as it offloads the execution of computation-intensive applications to cloud resources. In addition, various kinds of cloud services and resourceful servers are available to offload computationally intensive tasks. However, their processing speeds, access delays, computation capability, residual memory and service charges are different which retards their usage, as it becomes time-consuming and ambiguous for making decisions. To address the aforementioned issues, this paper presents a Fuzzy Simplified Swarm Optimization based cloud Computational Offloading (FSSOCO) algorithm to achieve optimum multisite offloading. Fuzzy logic and simplified swarm optimization are employed for the identification of high powerful nodes and task decomposition respectively. The overall performance of FSSOCO is validated using the Specjvm benchmark suite and compared with the state-of-the-art offloading techniques in terms of the weighted total cost, energy consumption, and processing time.
