ON MOBILE CLOUD FOR SMART CITY APPLICATIONS

Computer Science & Engineering

In recent years, the Smart City approach has become trendy for its assurance to develop the quality of life of urban citizens. This approach involves multiple preparations, such as Smart healthcare, smart transportation, and Smart community. Most benefit in Smart Cities, especially in the Smart healthcare domain, requires the real-time distribution, processing and inspect of Big Healthcare Data for deep decision-making. In this scenario, mobile cloud computing (MCC) can play a basic role by offloading Big Healthcare Data associated tasks such as partition; deal with analysis, from mobile applications to cloud effect, ensuring quality of service (QoS) demands of end-users. Such resource transfer, who is also termed Virtual Machine (VM) transfer, is very powerful in the Smart healthcare scenario in Smart Cities. ssIn this project, I proposed an Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) based joint VM transfer model for a heterogeneous, MCC-based Smart Healthcare system in Smart City environment. In this model, the user’s mobility and procure VM resources in the cloud address the VM transfer problem. I also present a thorough performance evaluation to probe the performance of our proposed model compared to state-of-the-art approaches.
