Be familiar with network concepts related to mobile Ecosystem. To study different mobile operating system. To gain knowledge about different mobile platforms and application development. 1.4 Introduction to Mobile system A mobile phone is a wireless handheld device that allows users to make and receive calls and to send text messages, among other features. The earliest generation of mobile phones could only make and receive calls. Today’s mobile phones, however, are packed with many additional features, such as web browsers, games, cameras, video players and even navigational systems. A mobile phone may also be known as a cellular phone or simply a cell phone. The original Mobile Devices and C The original Mobile Devices and C ommunication was mmunication was designed for voice applications (2G). When the first mobile phones were introduced, their only function was to make and receive calls, and they were so bulky it was impossible to carry them in a pocket. Later, mobile phones belonging to the Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) network became capable of sending and receiving text messages. As these devices evolved, they became smaller and more features were added, such as multimedia messaging service (MMS), which allowed users to send and receive images. Most of these MMS-capable devices were also equipped with cameras, which allowed users to capture photos, add captions, and send them to friends and relatives who also had MMS-capable phones. 2 Author: Dr.P.Thiyagarajan, Dept. of Computer Science, Central University of Tamil Nadu, Thiruvarur – 610 005. 1.4.1 The Mobile Ecosystem The smart phones become our inseparable companions today. It is become part of human life. A smart phone is a mobile phone that can do more than other phones. They work as a computer but are mobile devices small enough to fit in a user's hand. Smart phones include the following uses: Sending and receiving emails, text, photographs and multimedia messages Registering contacts, calculator, currency, alarm, etc. functions Browsing the Internet using a mobile browser Playing games and Video chat point of sale terminal when paying for goods or services barcode scanning, creating high quality photographs or video Determining user's exact location utilizing GPS (global positioning system) satellites Upto 1980, we used telephone to exchange voice information over telephone lines.

  • Emulation and Computing History the Computer History Simulation Project and SIMH
    Emulation and computing history The Computer History Simulation Project and SIMH Skill Level: Intermediate M. Tim Jones ([email protected]) Senior Architect 22 Mar 2011 The simplest computing devices we use today have more processing capability than the most capable computing systems of yesterday. For example, the VAX 11/780 delivered around 0.5 MIPS in the early 1980s. Compare that to an IBM zEnterprise™ 196 (z196) mainframe of today, which can support well over 52 KMIPS. However, we can learn a lot from early computing history. If you've ever wanted to boot an IBM 1130, PDP-11, or MITS Altair, then the Computer History Simulation Project is just what you've been looking for. In late 1978, as a birthday gift, I received my first computer. It was a TRS-80 model 1 with 4KB of memory and cassette tape mass storage, which I later upgraded to an Exatron stringy floppy. Within a few weeks, my BASIC programming skills had evolved to the point that I had exceeded the available memory for my yet-to-be-completed program: a sad day. Little did I know 30 years later, as an embedded firmware engineer, I would still spend much of my time trying to squeeze more code and data into a smaller address space. Computer history is fascinating, as are some of the early computers that were developed. Many of the early machines were rudimentary calculators, such as Konrad Zuse's Z1, which he invented in 1931, and going back even farther, Herman Hollerith's mechanical sorting machine that was used in the 1890 census; six years later his is one of the companies that merged and became IBM.

  • Comparative Studies of 10 Programming Languages Within 10 Diverse Criteria Revision 1.0
    Comparative Studies of 10 Programming Languages within 10 Diverse Criteria Revision 1.0 Rana Naim∗ Mohammad Fahim Nizam† Concordia University Montreal, Concordia University Montreal, Quebec, Canada Quebec, Canada [email protected] [email protected] Sheetal Hanamasagar‡ Jalal Noureddine§ Concordia University Montreal, Concordia University Montreal, Quebec, Canada Quebec, Canada [email protected] [email protected] Marinela Miladinova¶ Concordia University Montreal, Quebec, Canada [email protected] Abstract This is a survey on the programming languages: C++, JavaScript, AspectJ, C#, Haskell, Java, PHP, Scala, Scheme, and BPEL. Our survey work involves a comparative study of these ten programming languages with respect to the following criteria: secure programming practices, web application development, web service composition, OOP-based abstractions, reflection, aspect orientation, functional programming, declarative programming, batch scripting, and UI prototyping. We study these languages in the context of the above mentioned criteria and the level of support they provide for each one of them. Keywords: programming languages, programming paradigms, language features, language design and implementation 1 Introduction Choosing the best language that would satisfy all requirements for the given problem domain can be a difficult task. Some languages are better suited for specific applications than others. In order to select the proper one for the specific problem domain, one has to know what features it provides to support the requirements. Different languages support different paradigms, provide different abstractions, and have different levels of expressive power. Some are better suited to express algorithms and others are targeting the non-technical users. The question is then what is the best tool for a particular problem.
