Abstract
Cloud computing is the top issue of IT industry. In addition, the mobile platform has become a major keyword of IT technologies. Thus, we introduce the mobile cloud computing that consist of the union of two concepts. This conflated model can provide a high performance computing in mobile platform. To provide the mobile cloud computing service, it needs various IT technologies. Among these technologies, remote access protocol is one of major issues because it is directly related in a performance of mobile cloud computing. There are two major standard protocols to provide remote access. They are Remote Frame Buffer protocol(RFB protocol) and Remote Desktop Protocol(RDP protocol). RFB protocol relays the view image from a server to a client. It has a simple architecture, but it makes many network traffics structurally. On the other hand, RDP protocol sends the message of a server event to client and the client creates and shows the view image to users. It has smaller traffic than the RFB protocol, but it is only used in Windows platform due to the license problem. The other protocol called SPICE can solve problems from two standard protocols. This protocol has similar architecture to RDP protocol and it is an open-source program. However, SPICE protocol cannot support Android platform now. In this paper, we introduce the way to convert SPICE protocol to support Android platform. However, the modified protocol has some additional delay. Therefore, we also propose the way to enhance the performance of this protocol. It can provide a high performance and be suitable for the mobile cloud.
