Fog computing has appeared as a paradigm that extends Cloud computing and offers interesting and promising possibilities to overcome the limitations of the traditional environment. However, fog computing still faces a challenge with respect to mobility when the tasks come from ubiquitous mobile devices or applications in which the data sources are in constant movement. Therefore, this chapter pointins a spotlight on the development and advancement in the MFC and its related models. In this process, it reflects the areas where MFC is needed and has a very positive impact on enhancing the existing systems and opening new directions for evolving the environment, such as in the infrastructures, equipment and devices, land and marine vehicles, autonomous vehicles, etc. In addition, it investigates the communication technologies that have emerged or upgraded based on MFC with an emphasis on the added value that facilitated the process of solving some of the big challenges existing in the traditional design. Furthermore, the chapter also presents, in a comprehensive manner, the basics of nonfunctional requirement needed to achieve the basic QoS principles. Finally, it addresses the important open challenges that still need to be addressed in the new environment designed under the MFC framework.
