A cloud becomes a useful tool to help mobile users share
photos and video clips efficiently and tag their friends in
popular social networks as Twitter and Facebook. MeLog
[51] is an MCC application that enables mobile users
to share real-time experience (e.g., travel, shopping, and

recording itinerary, and storing images and video.
Ye
et al.
[52] introduces a mobile locationing service
allowing users to capture a short video clip about the
surrounding buildings. The matching algorithm run on a
cloud can use a large amount of information to search
for a location of these buildings. Also, One Hour Trans-
lation [53] provides an online translation service running
on the cloud of Amazon Web Services. One Hour Transla-
tion helps mobile users, especially foreign visitors, receive
the information translated in their language through their
mobile devices.

tion, location, images, voices, or video clips)
