  • Recently, various mobile services are provided by the spread of wireless network infrastructures and smart devices. The improvement of cloud computing technologies increases the interests for enterprise mobile cloud services in various IT companies as well. By increasing the interests for enterprise mobile cloud services, it is necessary to evaluate the use of enterprise mobile cloud services. Therefore, the factors which affect the user acceptance of enterprise mobile cloud services are analyzed on the basis of Davis' technology acceptance model in this research. As analysis results, four external variables have significant effects on perceived ease of use of mobile cloud services. Also, these variables indirectly affect attitude toward using cloud services. The results show that the security is the most important factor for attitude toward using enterprise mobile cloud services. The service users also consider the interoperability as an important factor for the user acceptance of cloud services. The perceived ease of use has more contribution than the perceive usefulness on attitude toward using enterprise mobile cloud services. This research has both industrial and academic contributions because it provides the guideline to companies for introducing the enterprise mobile cloud services and apply the technology acceptance model on new IT services.

  • Mobile services which are applied PC performance and mobile characteristics are increased with spread of the smartphone. Recently, mobile cloud service is getting the spotlight as a solution of mobile service problems that mobile device is lack of memory, computing power and storage and mobile services are subordinate to a particular mobile device platform. However, mobile cloud service has more potential security threats by the threat inheritance of mobile service, wireless network and cloud computing service. Therefore, security threats of mobile cloud service has to be removed in order to deploy secure mobile cloud services and user and manager should be able to respond appropriately in the event of threat. In this paper, We define mobile cloud service threats by threat analysis of mobile device, wireless network and cloud computing and we propose mobile cloud service countermeasures in order to respond mobile cloud service threats and threat scenarios in order to respond and predict to potential mobile cloud service threats.

  • The limited battery power in the mobile environment, lack of sufficient wireless bandwidth, limited resources of mobile terminals, and frequent breakdowns of the wireless network have become major hurdles in the development of mobile cloud computing (MCC). In order to solve the abovementioned problems, This paper propose a proxy-based MCC framework by adding a proxy server between mobile devices and cloud services to optimize the access to cloud services by mobile devices on the network transmission, application support, and service mode levels. Finally, we verify the effectiveness of the developed framework through an experimental analysis. This framework can ensure that mobile users have efficient access to cloud services.

  • Mobile Cloud Service will provide cloud services through mobile devices. Because storage space constraints and computing process performance limitations of mobile devices, this service will process in the cloud environment after moving works and data that have to process in mobile terminal. The obstacles of mobile cloud service activity will have concerned high about the reliability service, data security, and the confidentiality security. In particular, in convergence of mobile services and cloud services, each threats are expected to be generated complicatedly. In this paper, we define the type of mobile cloud services as well as security threats that can occur in mobile cloud. Also we suggest security countermeasures in mobile app. and enterprises countermeasures. We suggest verification of mobile applications for user information protection about security countermeasures in mobile app. Also we describe the cloud providers responsibility and user responsibility about enterprises countermeasures.

  • Cloud storage services are used for efficient sharing or synchronizing of user's data across multiple mobile devices. Although cloud storages provide flexibility and scalability in storing data, security issues should be handled. Currently, typical cloud storage services offer data encryption for security purpose but we think such method is not secure enough because managing encryption keys by software and identifying users by simple ID and password are main defectives of current cloud storage services. We propose a secure data access method to cloud storage in mobile environment. Our framework supports hardware-based key management, attestation on the client software integrity, and secure key sharing across the multiple devices. We implemented our prototype using ARM TrustZone and TPM Emulator which is running on secure world of the TrustZone environment.

  • Mobility and cloud platform have become the dominant paradigm to develop web services dealing with huge and diverse digital contents for scientific solution or engineering application. These two trends are technically combined into mobile cloud computing environment taking beneficial points from each. The intention of this study is to design and implement a mobile cloud application for remotely sensed image fusion for the further practical geo-based mobile services. In this implementation, the system architecture consists of two parts: mobile web client and cloud application server. Mobile web client is for user interface regarding image fusion application processing and image visualization and for mobile web service of data listing and browsing. Cloud application server works on OpenStack, open source cloud platform. In this part, three server instances are generated as web server instance, tiling server instance, and fusion server instance. With metadata browsing of the processing data, image fusion by Bayesian approach is performed using functions within Orfeo Toolbox (OTB), open source remote sensing library. In addition, similarity of fused images with respect to input image set is estimated by histogram distance metrics. This result can be used as the reference criterion for user parameter choice on Bayesian image fusion. It is thought that the implementation strategy for mobile cloud application based on full open sources provides good points for a mobile service supporting specific remote sensing functions, besides image fusion schemes, by user demands to expand remote sensing application fields.

  • Currently, cloud computing is being used as a technology that greatly changes the IT field. For many businesses, many cloud services are available in the form of custom, reliable, and cost-effective web applications. Most cloud service providers provide functions such as IoT, machine learning, AI services, blockchain, AR & VR, mobile services, and containers in addition to basic cloud services that support the scalability of processors, memory, and storage. In this paper, we will look at the most used cloud service providers and compare the services provided by the cloud service providers.

  • Cloud computing services are known that they have many advantages from the point of view in economic saving, scalability, security, sharing and accessibility. So their applications are extending from simple office systems to the expert system for scientific computing. However, research or computing technology development in the geo-spatial fields including remote sensing applications are the beginning stage. In this work, the previously implemented smartphone app for image processing was first migrated to mobile cloud computing linked to Amazon web services. As well, parallel programming was applied for improving operation performance. Industrial needs and technology development cases in terms of mobile cloud computing services are being increased. Thus, a performance testing on a satellite image processing module was carried out as the main purpose of this study. Types of implementation or services for mobile cloud varies. As the result of this testing study in a given condition, the performance of cloud computing server was higher than that of the single server without cloud service. This work is a preliminary case study for the further linkage approach for mobile cloud and satellite image processing.
