Microsystems. Learn how to programme the mobile devices of the future!
The importance of mobile systems programming has emerged over the recent
years as a new domain in software development. The design of software
that runs in a mobile device requires that developers combine the rules
applicable in embedded environment; memory-awareness, limited
performance, security, and limited resources with features that are
needed in workstation environment; modifiability, run-time extensions,
and rapid application development. Programming Mobile Devices is a
comprehensive, practical introduction to programming mobile systems. The
book is a platform independent approach to programming mobile devices:
it does not focus on specific technologies, and devices, instead it
evaluates the component areas and issues that are common to all mobile
software platforms. This text will enable the designer to programme
mobile devices by mastering both hardware-aware and application-level
software, as well as the main principles that guide their design.
Programming Mobile Devices:
- Provides a complete and authoritative overview of programming mobile
systems.
- Discusses the major issues surrounding mobile systems programming;
such as understanding of embedded systems and workstation programming.
- Covers memory management, the concepts of applications, dynamically
linked libraries, concurrency, handling local resources, networking and
mobile devices as well as security features.
- Uses generic examples from JavaTM and Symbian OS to illustrate the
principles of mobile device programming. Programming Mobile Devices is
essential reading for graduate and advanced undergraduate students,
academic and industrial researchers in the field as well as software
developers, and programmers.
