Abstract: 
Mobile cloud computing has been introduced to be a powerful technology for mobile services by combining mobile computing and cloud computing technology. Though, a direct integration of two technologies can overcome a many of hurdles related to the performance, flexibility, security, and dynamic management discussed in mobile computing. Mobile cloud computing can address these problems by executing mobile applications on resource providers external to the mobile device. However, to make this vision a reality is far from being achieved and opens many new research questions. In addition, the collaboration between a mobile device and a cloud server poses complex performance issues associated with synchronization of data, network condition, security etc.
