Analysis of Cloud Computing Architectures

Abstract: Cloud computing has recently emerged as a new paradigm for hosting and delivering services over the Internet. Mobile cloud computing, new technology in the field of cloud computing enables cloud users to access cloud from their mobile devices (e.g. Laptops, PDA, and Smartphone‘s). Computational power and battery life is one of the major issues of these mobile devices. To overcome these problems clones of mobile devices are created on cloud servers. In this paper, we define clone cloud architecture and virtualized screen architecture in cloud computing. Clone Cloud is for the seamless use of ambient computation to augment mobile device applications, making them fast and energy efficient and in a Virtualized Screen; screen rendering is done in the cloud and delivered as images to the client for interactive display. This enables thin-client mobile devices to enjoy many computationally intensive and graphically rich services.
