抄録

Smartphone development is changing at rate that is becoming increasingly difficult for application developers to develop and test their applications on all relevant versions of the smartphone OS. With the Android OS, we have the unique ability to run the Android Emulator, which creates a virtual device, on either our workstation or cloud environment. We present StarCloud, an Android testing framework that emulates a cloud of connected and distributed Android devices utilizing both public Amazon's Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) and private OpenStack cloud infrastructure. Using the BOINC distributed computing client for Android, we were able to exemplify a unique use case for StarCloud to further research in grid computing on Android devices.Smartphone development is changing at rate that is becoming increasingly difficult for application developers to develop and test their applications on all relevant versions of the smartphone OS.
