Abstract:
In this paper, we first introduce how virtualization technologies can mitigate mobile application software publishing problems due to platform diversity and fragmentation. We propose a distributed server arrangement and the corresponding hand-off protocol to provide better user experience for application virtualization on mobile devices and evaluated the performance using the modified UMTS mobility models. We complete the establishment of quantitative relations between the performance improvement or impact and the infrastructure related parameters in the typical mobility model.
