Killer application of a new mobile era is the mobile cloud applicaions becoming permanent satellites of everyday life of people, the Chief information officer of Qualcomm company considers.

In the mobile market the set of new technologies appeared since the companies and consumers experienced "taste" of 3G networks. Transition from networks 2G focused on voice services to data networks 3G clearly let know that killer application are mobile applications – they turn mobile devices into something bigger, than just the device for calls, said in Roberto Padovani's publication, CIO of Qualcomm company.

Consumers and business felt in a similar way the improbable potential of consolidation of mobile applications and relics of cloud computing. Juniper Research estimates increase in the market of cloud mobile applications by 88% annually within the next five years with the expected growth from $400 million in 2009 to $9.5 billion in 2014 as users constantly demand universal access to the personal and business information.

Really to be fixed on mobile devices, cloud computing needs to implement two aspects: strengthen and accelerate data transmission on mobile devices, and - to provide to mobile technologies effective data processing, applications and services.

For operators of mobile networks deployment of additional technologies, such as HSPA + and LTE will create possibilities of data transmission, necessary for cloud computing. Now more than 80 providers started HSPA+ networks in 48 countries. There are seven operating LTE networks, and 113 projectible networks LTE in 46 countries. Development of present 3G networks will allow them to satisfy requests of applications with intensive data exchange, such as stream video of high definition, games in the peer-to-peer mode and information after processing of a context.

Existence of the corresponding equipment is critical as well as existence of capacious network for success of development of cloud computing in this area. Mobile devices should process effectively and productively the data arriving on communication channels that they were useful to people. The understanding mobile users will hardly be satisfied with their poor performance or small battery life. And such innovations as hardware acceleration of means of multimedia, more effective methods of management of a power supply and multinuclear architecture - all of them will be a key to ensuring use with mobile devices of advantages of again expanded canals of data, Padovani considers.

Gartner expects that sales of smartphones will reach sales of the PC in 2012. The companies which defined development of mobile calculations for a cloud as priority and providing convincing implementations for several platforms at once will go on a crest of inflow of a wave of mobility. Padovani considers that without applications which can fully implement cloud computing the trend does not cost development her. Already there are services and applications which do a tendency to ample opportunities of devices and network technologies of more convincing.

Mobile devices and cloud computing are considered also in terms of improvement of medical care now. Touch technologies can integrate with mobile devices for permanent observation and tracking the same as GPS and communication in emergencies. Mobile devices provide to patients from the remote areas access to doctors and services which were unavailable earlier.

Use of sensors or data on location that the nobility where we and what we are engaged in, broadcast of this information in useful service, or a possibility of mobile devices to detect and communicate with each other for creation of new dimension of social networks, or simple ensuring ideal viewing the mobile Internet … questions which the industry should overcome as it works that "move a cloud" and lead it closer, than ever to human everyday life, the chief on information technologies of Qualcomm company is convinced.
