This brief surveys existing techniques to address the problem of long delays and high power consumption for web browsing on smartphones, which can be due to the local computational limitation at the smartphone (e.g., running java scripts or flash objects) level. To address this issue, an architecture called Virtual-Machine based Proxy (VMP) is introduced, shifting the computing from smartphones to the VMP which may reside in the cloud. Mobile Web Browsing Using the Cloud illustrates the feasibility of deploying the proposed VMP system in 3G networks through a prototype using Xen virtual machines (in cloud) and Android Phones with ATT UMTS network. Techniques to address scalability issues, resource management techniques to optimize the performance of the VMs on the proxy side, compression techniques to further reduce the bandwidth consumption, and adaptation techniques to address poor network conditions on the smartphone are also included.

Advanced networking methods and technologies are emerging as critical components in enabling novel applications. They are supported by recent technological advances in wireless communications along with the integration of various functionalities such as sensing, communication and artificial intelligence. The main goal of advanced networking is to achieve more efficient, stable and secure networks in internet and mobile communication systems. To fulfil the increasing network demand from applications, advanced networking technologies such as load balancing, fault tolerance technology, encryption technology, virtualization technology and cloud computing are used to improve network speed, optimize network performance, enhance network security, and provide a better user experience.This book covers innovative advances in networking technologies. The book is written in a tutorial style to benefit a broad advanced research audience in networking, communication, computer science, and security. The authors put a particular focus on cyber security for all advanced network concepts and technologies and have included useful case studies.
