  • Nys Fair Events Mobile Application with Client-Side Caching
    NYS FAIR EVENTS MOBILE APPLICATION WITH CLIENT-SIDE CACHING A Master’s Project Presented to Department of Computer and Information Sciences SUNY Polytechnic Institute Utica, New York In Partial Fulfilment of the requirements for the Master of Science Degree By Sumant Kanala (U00287895) December 2017 © SUMANT KANALA 2017 NYS Fair Events Mobile application with client-side caching Declaration I declare that this project is my own work and has not been submitted in any form for another degree or diploma at any university or other institute of tertiary education. Information derived from the published and unpublished work of others has been acknowledged in the text and a list of references is given. _________________ Sumant Kanala Abstract NYS Fair Events collects data about fair events which happen in New York state throughout the year, bundles them, displays the upcoming events and useful information about the event itself, the weather and forecast prediction, and a Google Maps to show the route to the event from the user’s location. The motivation for creating this project arose with understanding the growing market for mobile applications and by working for a startup for several months now in the field of web development. A trend has been established in which more users are switching towards mobile apps as their preferred information exchange tool than their traditional PCs and hence the development of better apps should be geared towards mobile phones and tablet PCs. The development of the app is mainly divided into two steps, the client and server side. For the client side I developed a Cordova-based mobile app which is cross-platform and can be compiled to work on Android and IOS based mobile devices.
