A Case Study on Academic Services Application Using Agile Methodology for Mobile Cloud Computing

Abstract

Recently, Mobile Cloud Computing reveals many modern development areas in the Information Technology industry. Several software engineering frameworks and methodologies have been developed to provide solutions for deploying cloud computing resources on mobile application development. Agile methodology is one of the most commonly used methodologies in the field. This paper presents the MCCAS a Web and Mobile application that provide feature for the Palestinian higher education/academic institutions. An Agile methodology was used in the development of the MCCAS but in parallel with emphasis on Cloud computing resources deployment.
