N2 - Recently, the arising of cloud computing (CC) concept and explosive growth of mobile applications induce a novel technology, i.e., mobile cloud computing (MCC). By integrating CC into mobile environment, MCC alleviates limitations of mobile devices and proliferates a variety of new fascinating mobile services. The key to enable MCC is to equip mobile users with the data processing and storage abilities in the clouds via wireless networks. In this paper, aiming at facilitating the research of MCC and inducing more research topics regarding MCC, we offer a review of the key issues that concern the feasibility of MCC and identify the corresponding novel techniques to mitigate these key issues. Moreover, we propose a potential framework to enhance the robustness of MCC incorporating these novel techniques.
