Tag Line

Future Communication Architecture For Mobile Cloud Services

Objective

MobileCloud addresses a mobile network with decentralized computing and smart storage, offered as one service (on-demand, elastic and pay-as-you-go). The top-level objectives of the MobileCloud project are two-fold. On the one side, to develop a novel mobile “network” architecture and technologies, using proof-of-concept prototypes, to lead the way from current mobile networks to a fully cloud-based mobile communication system. On the other side, to extend cloud computing to support on-demand and elastic provisioning of novel mobile services.
