Providing mobile cloud services requires seamless integration between various platforms to offer mobile users optimum performance. To achieve this, many fundamental problems such as bandwidth availability and reliability, resource scarceness, and finite energy must be addressed before rolling out such services. This chapter aims to explore technological challenges for mobile cloud computing in the area of resource management focusing on both parts of the infrastructure: mobile devices and cloud networks. Starting with introducing mobile cloud computing, it then stresses the importance of resource management in the operation of mobile cloud services presenting various types of resources available for cloud computing. Furthermore, it examines the various types of resource management techniques available for mobile clouds. Finally, future directions in the field of resource management for mobile cloud computing environment are presented.

This paper focused on optimal energy-efficient resource allocation management in the mobile cloud services. A resource management technique depicts the various resources reservation or blocking. Energy wastage is diminished, and revenue is amplified for mobile cloud providers. The recommended method holds two stages: a) beginning stage, the task impairment, delay time, resource utilization for every task has been individually calculated, and the enthalpy was measured, and b) the second stage, the enthalpy-based Optimal Energy Allocation Supervision (OEAS) algorithm was used to optimize the resources to the powerful resource management. In this paper, the problem of the limited and relatively small battery energy power in today’s mobile devices has been restricted functionality which can include into these platforms. Diverse mobile cloud suppliers helpfully share the resources in a pool for improving resource allocation based on the users demand and distribute revenue in mobile cloud providers. The recent upgraded research in MCC from an existing work has been examined on the issues of managing resources and vital challenges in energy consumption. The new hazing technology of mobile users and robust business interests in mobile cloud environment which escort the innovative progress in mobile cloud computing. It operates intense energy methods with a low cost. This paper exhibits the research extent and classified various issues in energy saving in mobile clouds. Later, it analyzes the presented research results and mechanisms which establish its strengths and weaknesses. Energy consumption is a major problem being faced by mobile cloud computing. This paper recognizes and explains the open issues and idea of future research. The main objective is to reduce energy consumption, increase energy efficiency in computing devices and resource allocations management as well as in their executions. Energy conservation can be the optimal solution which is minimized by using less of an energy service

Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC) which combines mobile computing and cloud computing, has become one of the industry ring words and a major conversation thread in the IT world with an explosive development of the mobile applications and emerging of cloud computing idea, the MCC has become a possible technology for the mobile service users. The concepts of Cloud computing are naturally meshed with mobile devices to allow on-the-go functionalities and benefits. The mobile cloud computing is emerging as one of the most important branches of cloud computing and it is expected to expand the mobile ecosystems. As more mobile devices enter the market and evolve, certainly security issues will grow as well. Also, enormous growth in the variety of devices connected to the Internet will further drive security needs. MCC provides a platform where mobile users make use of cloud services on mobile devices. The use of MCC minimizes the performance, compatibility, and lack of resources issues in mobile computing environment.

Mobile cloud computing is the emerging field. Along-with different services being provided by the cloud like Platform as a Service, Infrastructure as a Service, Software as a Service; Game as a Service is new terminology for the cloud services. In this paper, we generally discussed the concept of mobile cloud gaming, the companies that provide the services as GaaS, the generic architecture, and the research work that has been done in this field. Furthermore, we highlighted the research areas in this field.

With the recent advances in cloud computing and the improvement in the capabilities of mobile devices in terms of speed, storage, and computing power, Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC) is emerging as one of important branches of cloud computing. MCC is an extension of cloud computing with the support of mobility. In this paper, the authors first present the specific concerns and key challenges in mobile cloud computing. They then discuss the different approaches to tackle the main issues in MCC that have been introduced so far, and finally focus on describing the proposed overall architecture of a middleware that will contribute to providing mobile users data storage and processing services based on their mobile devices capabilities, availability, and usage. A prototype of the middleware is developed and three scenarios are described to demonstrate how the middleware performs in adapting the provision of cloud web services by transforming SOAP messages to REST and XML format to JSON, in optimizing the results by extracting relevant information, and in improving the availability by caching. Initial analysis shows that the mobile cloud middleware improves the quality of service for mobiles, and provides lightweight responses for mobile cloud services.

A phishing attack is one of the severe threats to the smartphone users. As per the recent lookout report, mobile phishing attack is increasing 85% year to year and going to become a significant threat to the smartphone users. This social engineering attack attempts to get the user’s password by disguising as trusted service provider. Most of the smartphone users are using the Internet services outside of the traditional firewall. Cloud-based documents are one of the primary targets of this phishing attack in mobile cloud computing. Also, most smartphone users are using the cloud storage in their device. To secure against this password attack in a mobile cloud environment, we propose a new authentication scheme to provide novel security to the mobile cloud services. This scheme will verify the user and service provider without transmitting the password using the Zero-knowledge proof based authentication protocol. Moreover, the proposed scheme will provide mutual authentication between the communication entities. The effectiveness of proposed scheme would be verified using protocol verification tool called Scyther.

Abstract: Cloud computing refers to a computer environment in which traditional software systems, installations, and licensing concerns are replaced with comprehensive on demand," pay as you need" internet based services. In this scenario, many cloud customers can request multiple cloud resources at the same time. As a result, there should be a plan in place to ensure that resources must be prepared for the needy customer in proficient way in order complete their needs. In cloud computing systems, resource management is a critical and difficult issue. It must meet numerous service quality requirements and, as a result, reduce SLA violations. This paper survey different resource management technique for cloud infrastructures. Keywords: Cloud, Resource management and techniques
