  • A Survey Onmobile Operating System and Mobile Networks
    A SURVEY ONMOBILE OPERATING SYSTEM AND MOBILE NETWORKS Vignesh Kumar K1, Nagarajan R2 (1Departmen of Computer Science, PhD Research Scholar, Sri Ramakrishna College of Arts And Science, India) (2Department of Computer Science, Assistant Professor, Sri Ramakrishna College Of Arts And Science, India) ABSTRACT The use of smartphones is growing at an unprecedented rate and is projected to soon passlaptops as consumers’ mobile platform of choice. The proliferation of these devices hascreated new opportunities for mobile researchers; however, when faced with hundreds ofdevices across nearly a dozen development platforms, selecting the ideal platform is often met with unanswered questions. This paper considers desirable characteristics of mobileplatforms necessary for mobile networks research. Key words:smart phones,platforms, mobile networks,mobileplatforms. I.INTRODUCTION In a mobile network, position of MNs has been changing due todynamic nature. The dynamic movements of MNs are tracked regularlyby MM. To meet the QoS in mobile networks, the various issuesconsidered such as MM, handoff methods, call dropping, call blockingmethods, network throughput, routing overhead and PDR are discussed. In this paper I analyse the five most popular smartphone platforms: Android (Linux), BlackBerry, IPhone, Symbian, and Windows Mobile. Each has its own set of strengths and weaknesses; some platforms trade off security for openness, code portability for stability, and limit APIs for robustness. This analysis focuses on the APIs that platforms expose to applications; however in practice, smartphones are manufactured with different physical functionality. Therefore certain platform APIs may not be available on all smartphones. II.MOBILITY MANAGEMENT IP mobility management protocols proposed by Alnasouri et al (2007), Dell'Uomo and Scarrone (2002) and He and Cheng (2011) are compared in terms of handoff latency and packet loss during HM.

  • 1 Smartphones and Symbian OS
    1 Smartphones and Symbian OS Symbian OS is a full-featured, open, mobile operating system that powers many of today’s smartphones. As these smartphones become more pow- erful and popular, the demand for smartphone software has grown. Symbian smartphones are shipped with a variety of useful pre-loaded and targeted applications, which are selected by each phone’s manu- facturer. Today, the average Symbian smartphone ships with over 30 pieces of third-party software pre-installed. However, the exciting aspect of Symbian smartphones is that they are ‘open’, meaning that users can further customize their phone experience by downloading, installing, and uninstalling applications written by third-party developers (or by the users themselves). Users can download applications from a PC to the smartphone through a link such as USB, or Bluetooth technology, or over-the-air via the Internet. With the largest installed base of smartphones worldwide, Symbian OS offers a great opportunity for software developers to establish them- selves in the mobile market by creating novel and exciting software for the growing mass of smartphone users around the world. There is a growing list of Symbian applications available as freeware or as paid downloads on numerous Internet sites (http://www.handango.com and http://www.epocware.com are good examples). They range from pro- ductivity, entertainment, navigation, multimedia, and communications software to programs that can count fast food calories, improve your golfCOPYRIGHTED swing, keep diaries, and calculate MATERIAL foreign currency exchange. And business opportunities aside, sometimes it’s just plain fun writing your own code to run on your own smartphone.

Georg Farber¨ Advisor: Prof.Dr.rer.nat.habil. Thomas Braunl¨ Author: Martin Hintermann Kirchberg 34 82069 Hohenschaftlarn¨ Submitted in February 2007 iii Acknowledgements At first, i would like to thank my supervisor Prof. Dr. Thomas Braunl¨ for giving me the opportunity to take part at a really interesting project. Many thanks to Thomas Sommer, my project partner, for his contribution to our good work. I also want to thank also Bernard Blackham for his assistance by email and phone at any time. In my opinion, it was a great cooperation of all persons taking part in this project. Abstract Embedded systems can be found in more and more devices. Linux as a free operating system is also becoming more and more important in embedded applications. Linux even replaces other operating systems in certain areas (e.g. mobile phones). This thesis deals with the employment of Linux in embedded systems. Various architectures of embedded systems are introduced and the characteristics of common operating systems for these devices are reviewed. The architecture of Linux is examined by looking at the particular components such as kernel, standard C libraries and POSIX tools for embedded systems. Furthermore, there is a survey of real-time extensions for the Linux kernel. The thesis also treats software development for embedded Linux ranging from the prerequi- sites for compiling software to the debugging of binaries.

    Symbian Smartphone Forensics and Security: Recovery of Privacy-Protected Deleted Data Vrizlynn L.L. Thing and Darell J.J. Tan Digital Forensics Lab Cryptography & Security Department Institute for Infocomm Research, Singapore {vriz,jjdtan}@i2r.a-star.edu.sg Abstract. In this paper, we discuss our proposed method to acquire privacy-protected data from Symbian smartphones running the latest OS version 9.4, S60 5th Edition, and smartphones running the prior OS ver- sion 9.3, S60 3rd Edition. We then present our reverse-engineering analy- sis work on the active and deleted Short Message Service (SMS) message recovery from the on-phone memory in the Symbian smartphones. We describe the encoding and format of the raw data of the SMS messages so as to achieve an automated parsing and recovery of the messages. Our experiments on various sent, received, draft and deleted messages showed that we were able to recover both the active (in its entirety) and deleted SMS messages (partially) correctly and automatically. Keywords: Symbian forensics, security, memory analysis, mobile phones, smartphones, data acquisition, deleted SMS message recovery. 1 Introduction As mobile phones are becoming increasingly prevalent and are constantly evolv- ing into “smarter” devices (i.e. smartphones with higher processing power and enhanced features), capabilities to perform in-depth forensics on these devices also become essential. However, most current mobile phone forensics tools are still restricted to the acquisition and analysis of basic active files and data (i.e. logical data acquisition) on the Subscriber Identity Module (SIM), memory cards and the internal flash memory [1–7]. In the event that private application data is isolated and data-caging is in place, such security mechanisms prevent in-depth acquisition of important ev- identiary data.
