摘要：Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC) is a combination of Cloud computing and mobile networks. It is a technique or model in which mobile applications are built, powered and hosted using cloud computing technology. Users expect to run computational intensive applications on Smart Mobile Devices (SMDs) in the same way as powerful primary or mainframe computers. However, SMDs are still low potential computing devices, which are constrained by CPU potentials, memory capacity and battery life time. MCC provides practical solution to reduce this incapacitation by extending the services and resources of computational clouds to SMDs on demand basis. The current offloading algorithms offload computational intensive applications to remote servers by employing different cloud models. A challenging aspect of such algorithms is the establishment of distributed application processing platform at runtime which requires additional computing resources on SMDs. This paper describes Distributed Application Processing Approach for SMDs in MCC Environment. The purpose of this paper is to highlight issues and challenges to the existing algorithms in developing, im plementing and executing computational intensive mobile applications within MCC environment. It proposes taxonomy of current Application Processing Approaches, reviews current offloading frameworks by using thematic taxonomy and analyzes the implications a nd critical aspects of current offloading frameworks
