Despite the fast development of the technolo- intensive video applications. Mobile devices can save energy by offloading computation tasks to the cloud, yet the energy gies and the effort toward unifying hand-held and desktop gain must exceed the additional communication cost for cloud computers (e.g., through Windows 8/10, iOS/MacOS, and migration to be beneficial. The situation is further complicated Android/ChromeOS), it remains widely agreed that mobile by real-time video applications that have stringent delay and terminals will not completely replace laptop and desktop bandwidth constraints. In this paper, we closely examine the computers in the near future. Migrating popular PC software performance and energy efficiency of representative mobile cloud applications under dynamic wireless network channels to mobile platforms or developing similar new software is still and state-of-the-art mobile platforms. We identify the unique confined to the limited computation capability of the mobile challenges of and opportunities for offloading real-time video devices, as well as their unique and lightweight operating applications and develop a generic model for energy-efficient systems and hardware architectures.

    REVIEW SMARTPHONE LENOVO IDEAPAD A10 This happens when a tablet shapes up to become a miniature laptop — S. Aadeetya a tablet and netbook. However, when it comes to performance, the device is more of the latter than former. Netbook has always been made to be the perfect-portable laptop alternative before the tablets came to fore but never recognized for their output. You could say the same for IdeaPad A10 that is a mere contrast to the tablet offerings that are in the market. The tablet packs a quad-core Rockchip processor with 1 GB RAM and offers 16 GB storage, expandable further via microSD slot. Charging the A10 is convenient via microUSB port. It runs on Android 4.2 Jelly Bean OS that invariably falls short of the current requirement but still manages to perform with stability and no apparent OS-based issues. For this price, IdeaPad A10 can be compared with some really powerful-yet- affordable devices like Xolo Tegra Note and even the 2013 version of Nexus 7. Average Price: `19,990 cameras and when it comes to battery life, we managed to get over 5 hours during our video playback tests that translate into 7-8 enovo A10 is a 10.1 inch notebook hours life during normal usage. that as per Lenovo is targeted at tablet KEY SPECS: Lusers who are looking for the support 80000 10.1 inch HD display, of physical keyboard.
