To address this issue, an architecture called Virtual-Machine based Proxy (VMP) is introduced, shifting the computing from smartphones to the VMP which may reside in the cloud. Mobile Web Browsing Using the Cloud illustrates the feasibility of deploying the proposed VMP system in 3G networks through a prototype using Xen virtual machines (in cloud) and Android Phones with ATT UMTS network. Techniques to address scalability issues, resource management techniques to optimize the performance of the VMs on the proxy side, compression techniques to further reduce the bandwidth consumption, and adaptation techniques to address poor network conditions on the smartphone are also included.SpringBriefs in computer science.Mobile computingCloud computingMobile computing.Cloud computing.004004.678Zhao Bo918908Tak Byung Chul1757944Cao Guohong1733326MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910298568403321Mobile web browsing using the cloud4195985UNINA
