SPRINGERBRIEFS IN COMPUTER SCIENCE MOBILE WEB...

This brief surveys existing techniques to address the problem of long delays and high power
consumption for web browsing on smartphones  which can be due to the local computational
limitation at the smartphone (e.g.  running java scripts or flash objects) level. 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.
