Computing speed in mobile phones will go up to 3 gigahertz in 2014, more than the present speed of processors available in most laptops.

Clock speeds (will go) up to 2.5GHz-3GHz," Karbonn's Executive Director Shashin Devsare said in a statement talking about trend in 2014.
At present, speed of processors available in Indian market is generally about 2.7 Ghz which can go up to 3.7 Ghz temporarily by using booster technology.

A single core processor generally support one function at one time but multicore processor support multiple function simultaneously like internet browsing on mobile phone and simultaneously talking on phone or any other such combination of functions in a phone.
Devsare said that he expects to see more new operating system coming to market based on open source technology other than Google's Android which dominates the market at present.
