- Mobility O - improves Operations B - breaks Business Barriers I - improves Information quality L - decreases transaction Lag E - improves Efficiency

Mobile Computing Devices

Applications
Communication Mobile

learning Entertainment Mobile pervasive applications. Mobile sensing applications. Mobile applications for social innovation. Mobile social networking. Mobile Recommendation.

Benefits
Time

conservation : Usage of mobile computing devices in organizations reduces time and cost. computing : Mobile users can store and work with their data somewhere outside the device. :Unlike PCs mobile devices are portable.

Cloud

Portability

Disadvantages
Quality

of connectivity : Wi-Ficonnectivity or mobile network connectivity is a disadvantage because if you are not near any of these connections your access to the internet is very limited. concerns : Mobile VPNs are unsafe to connect to, and also syncing devices might also lead to security concerns. Consumption : due to the use of Wi-Fi in these devices, they consume more power and their batteries do not tend to last long.

Mobile Cloud Computing

Definition: Mobile Cloud Computing refers to an infrastructure where both the data storage and the data processing happen outside of the mobile device.
Mobile

Computing + Cloud Computing = Mobile Cloud computing

Mobile Computing Vs. Mobile Cloud Computing

Mobile Computing 1. Works Offline. 2. Data are stored in mobile devices. 3. Mobile computingis taking a physical device with you. Eg: Laptop, in which the data is stored. 4. Runs only native applications. Mobile Cloud Computing 1. Works online over the wireless communication services. 2. Data are stored in cloud. Eg: Web 3. Requires only the internet access, you can have all your files synchronized between devices so wherever you go, youll always have access to your files 4. Runs native applications as well as cloud based web applications.
