Image resizing in Responsive

Responsive web design resizes images to the mobile device’s screen. The full image is downloaded on a mobile device and resized to fit the screen. This consumes unnecessary CPU and RAM. Is there any alternative way ?

This would use a server side approach. PHP in this case.

These articles are good to get a general idea of the current situation:

Hope that helps.
