Abstract: There has been noticeable advancement in mobile technology. The lay mans’ perception of a mobile as mere communication device underwent significant changes. One such change is M-learning which has taken its roots from e-learning. Mobile learning (M-learning) provides educational opportunities through mobile phones, PDA, digital media players. The best feature about M-learning is that exact information can be grasped anytime, anywhere without many constraints. Though, M-learning requires researcher’s attention in developing issues, processing capabilities and small screen displays.The paper discusses about mobile learning technologies, opportunities and challenges for success of M-learning. It is observed that most of the students in India have mobile phones and m-learning is an upcoming research field that aims at effective transition of learning tools from digital boards to hand held devices. Developing of M-learning content is a Herculean task in today’s date as the content developed

Abstract: This paper presents a systematic approach to correctly provision server resources in data centers, resulting in minimum energy consumption and SLA violations. In particular, we describe a hybrid method for efficient server provisioning in virtualized heterogeneous multicore Cloud data centers. The objective is to place VMs on host while keeping total utilization of CPU below defined threshold and then optimizing the VM allocation by constrained consolidation of VMs leveraging live migration and switching off idle nodes to minimize power consumption. As excessive migration of VMs can lead to significant SLA violation which can hamper required Quality of Service, in proposed approach not only overall number of used servers are minimized, but also number of migrations are minimized, resulting in minimum energy consumption and least SLA violations. We present evaluation results showing that our approach can provide up to 13% of energy savings, reduced SLA violations and fewer VM migrations
