There are many malware applications in Smartphone. Smartphone's users may become unaware if their data has been recorded and stolen by intruders via malware. Smartphone--whether for business or personal use--may not be protected from malwares. Thus, monitoring, detecting, tracking, and notification (MDTN) have become the main purpose of the writing of this paper. MDTN is meant to enable Smartph...

The recent advancement in cloud computing is leading to an excessive growth of mobile devices that can become powerful means for information access and mobile applications. Thus introducing a latent technology called Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC). Smartphone devices support wide range of mobile applications which require high computational power, memory, storage and energy but these resources ar...

A proliferation of mobile smartphone platforms, including Android devices, has triggered a rise in mobile application development for a diverse set of situations. Testing of these smartphone applications can be exceptionally difficult, due to the challenges of orchestrating production-scale quantities of smartphones, such as difficulty in managing thousands of sensory inputs to each individual ...
