A Mobile and Fog-based Computing Method to Execute Smart Device Applications in a Secure Environment

With the rapid growth of smart device and Internet of things applications, the volume of communication and data in networks have increased. Due to the network lag and massive demands, centralized and traditional cloud computing architecture are not accountable to the high users' demands and not proper for execution of delay-sensitive and real time applications. To resolve these challenges, we propose a Virtual Mobile Fog Computing-based architecture through creating a layer between the smart phone applications and the cloud. Data storing and processing and secured communication are performed in this layer in the separate nodes that are independent of the cloud. Each of these nodes is implemented virtually on a single server. We presented a marker-based add-on reality with dynamic 3D display in Android smart systems and evaluated its functionality in a cloud-based and proposed architectures through 4G and Wi-Fi Internet networks. The evaluation results show the optimal performance of the proposed architecture in both communication networks. Moreover, they show the execution of high-volume 3D models using Wi-Fi in a Mobile Fog architecture is fast and convenient for real time applications.
