To know more about OSI Days events, please visit: http://osidays.com Session on Android and Smartphone App Development: Abstract: The agenda of the workshop is to provide hands-on, action-packed presentation to the developers planning to start working on cool smart phone apps. The idea is to start with Android programming, which is based on Java, go over the important philosophical differences,Android- specific constructs to consider and go through an anatomy of android application. Discuss the major Android building blocks - Activities, Intents, Services, Broadcast Receivers, Content Providers to illustrate the philosophy of Android application development. The market trend suggests using frameworks to develop cross-platform smartphone apps (iphone/android/blackberry) running on the same code base. Following this trend, the next stop in this workshop would be to introduce developers to frameworks like PhoneGap/Titanium which uses HTML/CSS/Java_Script to create native mobile apps and very intuitive UI's.
