Abstract

Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC) uses Cloud Computing services and functionalities in a mobile environment to facilitate provisioning new emerging applications and services and overcome the battery life issues and resource limitations of mobile devices. In the meantime, energy consumption in MCC has become an important issue and so considerable energy-aware practical and theoretical solutions have been proposed in recent years. In this chapter, the proposed solutions have been discussed in three parts from the viewpoint of energy consumption, with the aim of moving toward green computing. In part one, energy-efficient algorithms in MCC for content caching and offloading in cloud nodes have been investigated. Part two deals with the energy-efficient approaches applied in MCC powered by renewable energy sources integrated with brown energy sources. In part three, AI-based models applied in MCC architecture for energy optimization have been reviewed and finally, challenges and future works have been discussed.
