Abstract
Mobile cloud games utilizes the rich resources within the cloud to enhance the functionality of mobile devices, therefore, to overcome the intrinsic constraints of mobile devices. To provide a satisfying quality of experience for players in dynamic network context, we need a cognitive gaming platform which is cognitive of resources and characteristics of the cloud, the access network, and the end-user devices, and enables dynamic utilization of these resources. In this work, we develop an environment perception solution with a novel capability to learn about the game player’s environment (i.e., the combination of terminal and access network) to facilitate this cognitive gaming platform.
