Abstract

The usage of smart phones is increasing rapidly over the last few years. Due to their mobility and good connectivity, Smartphones are increasing thrice as compared to PCs. However they are still constrained by limited processing power, memory and Battery. Thus, the applications cannot be made very rich. In this paper we propose a framework for making the applications of these Smartphones intelligent enough, to offload their compute intensive parts from the smart phone to the virtual image of the Smartphone on the cloud thus using the unlimited resources of the cloud. By using this framework the application developers will be able to enhance the capabilities of the smart phones and will be empowered to make the applications even richer.
