  • 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.

Processing III.b. Memory Management III.c. I/O : Input/Output IV Features V Strengths VI Weakness VII Example of Applications where the OS is being used VIII Screenshots I Introduction More than 90% of the CPUs in the world are not in desktops and notebooks. They are in embedded systems like cell phones, PDAs, digital cameras, camcorders, game machines, iPods, MP3 players, CD players, DVD recorders, wireless routers, TV sets, GPS receivers, laser printers, cars, and many more consumer products. Most of these use modern 32-bit and 64-bit chips, and nearly all of them run a full-blown operating system. Taking a close look at one operating system popular in the embedded systems world: Symbian OS, Symbian OS is an operating system that runs on mobile ‘‘smartphone’’ platforms from several different manufacturers. Smartphones are so named because they run fully-featured operating systems and utilize the features of desktop computers. Symbian OS is designed so that it can be the basis of a wide variety of smartphones from several different manufacturers. It was carefully designed specifically to run on smartphone platforms: general-purpose computers with limited CPU, memory and storage capacity, focused on communication. Our discussion of Symbian OS will start with its history. We will then provide an overview of the system to give an idea of how it is designed and what uses the designers intended for it.

As navigation aids, they may provide similar features as electronic 2D 3D maps can visualize static and dynamic features of real envi- maps: GPS positioning, routing, access to location-based data or ronments, and act as 3D gateways to location-based information. participation in location-based discussion, annotation, and visual- Insufficient network speed has been a major bottleneck for dy- ization of dynamic data, such as GPS tracked users or public trans- namic download of 3D content for mobile devices. 3G network portation vehicles. However, in a 3D map, everything is portrayed technologies promise to solve this issue, allowing faster response within a 3D view. The key feature of such a representation is the times and higher data rates. Similarly, mobile 3D graphics hard- easy recognizability of the environment.
