Almost all the consumer electronics like smart television, stereo systems, telephones, mobiles now run on the smart operating systems that profiles internet access, multitasking, streaming media live, audio video playbacks and a broad range of applications. A smart television entitles an operating systems or platform that enables the user to access and view network based and online multimedia content eliminating the need to connect to an extra box hardware. There is a strict need for comparison for being acquainted with variations present in content access, possible privacy concerns and for developer concerns, the software development kit (SDK), the integrated development environment (IDE) framework and the supported codecs. Above all there is a need for balancing the physical attractiveness of a smart television platform, with other important factors like native applications, web support and playback. This paper recognizes several such smart television platforms for television and presents a subjective comparison among them by means of contrasted parameters of application framework, developer SDK, web support, multitasking, playback, schedulers and others. The results are noted and evaluated.[1] Keywords: operating systems, memory, multitasking, kernels, tizen, webOS, android, framework, software development kit, system manager, legacy television, native playback, device driver web support I.

Question # 1 What is webOS? Answer:- WebOS also known as LG webOS, Open webOS or HP webOS, is a Linux kernel-based operating system for smart TVs, and formerly a mobile operating system. Initially developed by Palm, which was acquired by Hewlett-Packard, HP made the platform open source, and it became Open WebOS. The operating system was later sold to LG Electronics.

On August 15, Google announced its intention to Tacquire Motorola Mobility. The primary reason identified for the $12.5B purchase price is for Google to gain access to Motorola’s intellectual property rights for use in the patent wars that have been threatening the ongoing viability of the Android mobile operating system.

    Download Android Os for Phone Open Source Mobile OS Alternatives to Android

    download android os for phone Open Source Mobile OS Alternatives To Android. It’s no exaggeration to say that open source operating systems rule the world of mobile devices. Android is still an open-source project, after all. But, due to the bundle of proprietary software that comes along with Android on consumer devices, many people don’t consider it an open source operating system. So, what are the alternatives to Android? iOS? Maybe, but I am primarily interested in open-source alternatives to Android. I am going to list not one, not two, but several alternatives, Linux-based mobile OSes . Top Open Source alternatives to Android (and iOS) Let’s see what open source mobile operating systems are available. Just to mention, the list is not in any hierarchical or chronological order . 1. Plasma Mobile. A few years back, KDE announced its open source mobile OS, Plasma Mobile. Plasma Mobile is the mobile version of the desktop Plasma user interface, and aims to provide convergence for KDE users. It is being actively developed, and you can even find PinePhone running on Manjaro ARM while using KDE Plasma Mobile UI if you want to get your hands on a smartphone. 2. postmarketOS. PostmarketOS (pmOS for short) is a touch-optimized, pre-configured Alpine Linux with its own packages, which can be installed on smartphones. The idea is to enable a 10-year life cycle for smartphones. You probably already know that, after a few years, Android and iOS stop providing updates for older smartphones. At the same time, you can run Linux on older computers easily.

ABSTRACT The main objective of the paper is to propose security policies and mechanisms for mobile phones that fulfil the user expectations ensure the data privacy for mobile users. The main reason of mobile phone growing ratio will be increased in recent years due to improved memory, processor and optimize the size of mobile devices. Nowadays smart phone usage will be increased because of the reason is optimized size, functionality enhancement, capable of host many useful and attractive applications. However, this vast amount of mobile platform usage makes these smart devices a soft target for security attacks and privacy breach. This paper examines the various types of mobile operating systems and its security threats. In this paper comparison of Smartphones like Android, Blackberry, Apple iOS, Symbian, Window Mobile, BADA, PALM OS (Garnet OS), Open WebOs, Maemo and Meego based on the specific evaluation criterions used for assessing the security level.
