Abstract: This paper presents efficient mobile cloud service allocation for mobile commerce in mobile cloud. Mobile cloud service allocation scheme considers both mobile clients and cloud datacentre providers. The mobile commerce service scenario is taken as an example in mobile cloud environment, and our service allocation approach is applied to mobile cloud environment. The paper proposes a distributed mobile cloud service allocation algorithm for mobile commerce (SAAMC). From the simulation results, the execution success ratio of our SAAMC is better than that of game-theoretic mobile cloud resource allocation (GMCRA) (Ge et al., 2012) and auction-based resource allocation algorithm (ARAA) (Zhang et al., 2013). The allocation efficiency of SAAMC is better than that of GMCRA and ARAA. The energy consumption ratio of SAAMC is not good as that of GMCRA.

Keywords: mobile cloud; service allocation; mobile commerce.
