Cloud Computing Platform Providing Acceleration as a Service (AaaS) for Mobile Applications

Design and implement a new platform to accelerate the execution of mobile interactive applications by leveraging cloud computing technologies

Modern mobile devices equipped with a multitude of sensors and multimedia capabilities provide opportunities for the creation of various new mobile applications. However, these applications usually encounter poor user experiences because of the inherent resource constraints on mobile devices, especially when running interactive applications. To address this problem, a new mobile cloud platform is developed to accelerate the execution for mobile interactive applications.

Mobile augmented reality

Touch free HCI - Hand gesture

Touch free HCI - Eyeball movements

Special Features and Advantages

Performance improvement of mobile interactive applications by adaptive partitioning of applications
Resources consumption saving at both mobile side and cloud side
Easy development and deployment through providing Acceleration as a Service (AaaS) for developers

Applications

Touch free Human Computer Interaction (HCI) on Mobile Devices – this project enables the control of mobile applications by contactless interactive ways, e.g., hand gestures, eyeballs movements, etc
Mobile Augmented Reality - To recognize the physical environment surrounding the mobile users, and rendering related useful information to users
