A Novel Framework for Application of Cloud Computing in Wireless Mesh Networks

Cloud computing is an effective approach for organizing computing resource which can improve service capability of WMNs remarkably. However, some drawbacks of wireless networks exist inherently make the cloud computing in WMNs insecure with various threats. In this paper, a novel hierarchical framework which is more compatible for cloud computing in WMNs is proposed, a completed security architecture and relevant key techniques guarantee service of cloud computing provision.
