International Journal of Applied Mathematics, Electronics and Computers 8(4): 273-281, 2020 INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF APPLIED MATHEMATICS International Open Access ELECTRONICS AND COMPUTERS Volume 08 Issue 04 www.dergipark.org.tr/ijamec e-ISSN: 2147-8228 December, 2020 Research Article Comparison and Evaluation of Cross Platform Mobile Application Development Tools Mehmet ISITAN a , Murat KOKLU b a Sakarya University, Faculty of Computer and Information Science, Department of Software Engineering b Selcuk University, Faculty of Technology, Department of Computer Engineering ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Article history: In order to develop a mobile application, it is necessary to develop software separately for each Received 28 November 2020 operating system to be outputted. In response to this problem, frameworks that can give application Accepted 6 December 2020 outputs for more than one operating system by developing applications on only one platform have Keywords: been developed. With the recent diversification of these systems, which are called cross platform Cross Platform, mobile application development tools, which one should be preferred has become a problem for Mobile Development, Mobile Frameworks, developers. In this study, the cross-platform mobile application development tools that have come One Code to the fore in recent years will be determined and evaluated separately based on the pros and cons of distinguishing parameters. With the help of the applications to be developed, values such as processor, memory, battery and network usage, rendering time, opening time, installation file size, application size will be measured. It is also aimed to help developers find out which framework is more suitable for their needs by comparing them on topics such as popularity, third party software support, operating systems that can be outputted, development languages and ease of use, speed - performance. -
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. -

Native Cross-Platform Mobile Application Development
Native Cross-platform Mobile Application Development by W. de Kraker (0815283) CMI-Program Informatics – Rotterdam University August 14, 2012 First supervisor Mr. Y. S. Tjang Second supervisor Mr. A. Chamani Abstract Nowadays mobile devices are vastly integrated into modern society. They bring us one step closer to satisfy our ever growing need to have information available anytime, anywhere. To help gain access to information on mobile devices we use software applications, so called apps. However, the fragmented nature of today’s mobile ecosystem poses a challenge for developers to develop apps which are suitable to run on all mobile devices, since there is no de facto standard in cross-platform app development. Currently there are several solutions available to solve the cross-platform challenge. Lunatech, having expressed its interest in mobile app development, would like to know which solution, if any, suits Lunatechs needs. A study has been set up in order to resolve this question, the results of which are laid out in this thesis. ii Versions Version Date Author Details 0.1 12/07/2012 W. de Kraker Intial draft 0.2 20/07/2012 W. de Kraker Improved main research structure 0.3 08/08/2012 W. de Kraker Changes based on feedback from Mr. Y.S.

Survey on Techniques for Cross Platform Mobile Application Development
International Journal of Advanced Research in Computer Engineering & Technology (IJARCET) Volume 3 Issue 10, October 2014 Survey on Techniques for Cross Platform Mobile Application Development Apurva P. Pawar, Vandana S. Jagtap, Mamta S. Bhamare Abstract— Smart phone is used by most of the population. Different internal architecture of Operating System Over thousands of applications are used daily and a new becomes a reason for redevelopment of application to make it application gets launched as per need. In order to do work on run on each Operating System which in turn incurs lot of cost phones itself many desktop applications are getting converted to mobile version by developers. And it’s real challenge to market in terms of time, money, efforts. Consider example of are these applications and reach to the maximum users. From document editor software like Adobe Reader and Kingsoft developer point of view for application to reach to most of the office. People are also doing work through their Smartphone end users it need to run on max platforms, this needs too. It‘s not necessary that everyone is using windows redevelopment of application, we can solve this problem to some operating system on their Smartphone. Each mobile operating extent by developing cross platform application without system uses different programming model, developer would additional investment. Several techniques are available which will help to make it happen. Survey of these techniques could require additional overhead and troubleshooting since help application developers to make a proper choice. developer might have good hands on particular single platform. Hence, making software as cross platform Index Terms— Cross Compiled Approach, Cross Platform application can be a good option. -

Mobile RPG with PhoneGap Presented by Scott Klement http://www.profoundlogic.com © 2017-2020, Scott Klement Marriage is like my mobile phone contract. When you first signed up you were able to use all of the services you wanted, as much as you desired...no limit and no extra cost. A few months later and you no longer use many of the services because you just can't be bothered to pay the price! The Agenda Agenda for this session: 1. The what/why of PhoneGap • Web vs. Native vs. Hybrid • Utilizing Device Features • What is Cordova 2. Review/Discussion of Developing • Using the CLI • PhoneGap Environment and Docs • Hello World Example • Web programming review/discussion 3. Writing the RPG Code • Communicating with IBM i • Handling offline state • Example 4. PhoneGap Plugins • beyond what a browser could do • Barcode scanner example 2 Agenda Note: Self-Learning My goal for this session: … is not to teach you "all you need to know". • Learn why PhoneGap valuable • Learn the gist of things • Be able to research/learn the rest on your own I do not like to learn a lot of stuff at once! • Learn a little bit, then try it • Then learn more, and try that • Hands-on learning • Figure it out when you need it. My goal is to give you a good foundation so that you can do this yourselves. 3 Users Want Apps! (89% of Time) Browser VS. Native 4 Need a Middle Ground?
