Android vs Windows Mobile vs Java ME: a comparative study of mobile development environments

摘要: In this paper we look at three mobile development environments: Windows Mobile, Java ME and Android. Through platform comparison, the different environments are examined closely strengths weaknesses brought to life. all example applications written compare in action on respective devices. Environment specific deployment files created illustrate amount of boilerplate code overhead during deployment. Different key areas such as implementation aspects, performance aspects quality assurance compared give an depth overview status platforms. Our results show that although similar some they still represent distinctive fields each with their characteristics. our examples comparison come conclusion Mobile Android provides a better environment, whereas struggles poor emulator support incompatible implementations. The main features have common also seen trends directly visible programming languages unit testing, language end user distribution strategies. Big differences highlighted when inspecting community environments, hardware abilities maturity. This will large influence choice for creating novel assistive environment applications.
