Abstract :
The number of smartphone users and mobile application offerings are growing rapidly. A smartphone is often expected to offer PC-like functionality. In this paper, we present Virtual Smartphone over IP system that allows users to create virtual smartphone images in the mobile cloud and to customize each image to meet different needs. Users can easily and freely tap into the power of the data center by installing the desired mobile applications remotely in one of these images. Because the mobile applications are controlled remotely, they are not constrained by the limit of processing power, memory and battery life of a physical smartphone.
