Description
Summary:In this paper, we propose a model for mobile application profiles, wireless interfaces, and cloud resources. First, an algorithm to allocate wireless interfaces and cloud resources has been introduced. The proposed model is based on the wireless network cloud (WNC) concept. Then, considering power consumption, application quality of service (QoS) profiles, and corresponding cost functions, a multi-objective optimization approach using an event-based finite state model and dynamic constraint programming method has been used to determine the appropriate transmission power, process power, cloud offloading and optimum QoS profiles. Numerical results show that the proposed algorithm saves the mobile battery life and guarantees both QoS and cost simultaneously. Moreover, it determines the best available cloud server resources and wireless interfaces for applications at the same time.
