ABSTRACT:The cloud heralds a new era of computing where application services are provided through the Internet. Cloud computing can enhance the computing capability of mobile systems. Cloud computing is a new paradigm in which computing resources such as processing, memory, and storage are not physically present at the user's location. Instead, a service provider owns and manages these resources, and users access them via the Internet. Amazon Web Services lets users store personal data via its Simple Storage Service and perform computations on stored data. This type of computing provide low initial capital investment, shorter start-up time for new services, lower maintenance and operation costs, higher utilization through virtualization, and easier disaster recovery. Cloud computing can provide energy savings as a service to mobile users, though it also poses some unique challenges. This paper mainly focus on image data offload from mobile to remote server, which then processes image and converts it to appropriate, compatible low resolution image on request by other mobile clients. This conversion reduces mobile device energy consumption rather downloading same high resolution images.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
