Abstract Today, Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC) alone can no longer respond to the
increasing volume of data and satisfy the necessary delays in real-time applications. In …

Cloud computing is a new technology which managed by a third party “cloud provider” to
provide the clients with services anywhere, at any time, and under various circumstances. In …

Resource management (RM) is a challenging task in a cloud computing environment where
a large number of virtualized, heterogeneous, and distributed resources are hosted in the …

Next generation communication networks are expected to accommodate a high number of
new and resource-voracious applications that can be offered to a large range of end users …

Network Function Virtualization (NFV) has revolutionized the way network services are
