Q2. What is the value proposition of cloud computing?
The underlying value proposition of cloud computing is that centralization exploits economies of scale to lower the marginal cost of system administration and operations.
Q3. What are the sought-after features of a mobile device?
The most sought-after features of a mobile device include light weight, small size, long battery life, comfortable ergonomics, and tolerable heat dissipation.
Q4. How long does it take to determine the absence of a face in an image?
Lewis et al. [23] report that human subjects take less than 700 milliseconds to determine the absence of faces in a scene, even under hostile conditions such as low lighting and deliberately distorted optics.
Q5. What is the way to speed up the emergence of mobile applications?
The emergence of such applications can be accelerated by deploying infrastructure that assures mobile users of continuous logical proximity to the cloud.
Q6. Where did the authors measure the response times to the two data centers?
The authors measured end-to-end latency and bandwidth to these data centers from a WiFi-connected mobile device located on their campuses in Pittsburgh, PA and Lancaster, UK.
Q7. What is the central contribution of this paper?
The central contribution of this paper is the experimental evidence that these new applications force a fundamental change in cloud computing architecture.
Q8. How long does it take to get to the optimal EC2 instance?
Li et al. [24] report that average round trip time (RTT) from 260 global vantage points to their optimal Amazon EC2 instances is 73.68 ms.
Q9. What is the tradeoff between cloud and mobile computing?
Since peak processor power consumption exceeds wireless power consumption on today’s high-end mobile devices, this tradeoff favors cloud processing as computational demands increase.
Q10. what is the situation like in personal computing?
The situation is analogous to the dawn of personal computing, when the dramatic lowering of user interaction latency relative to time-sharing led to entirely new application metaphors such as spreadsheets and WYSIWYG editors.
