4. Mobile application development is the process by which applications are
developed for hand held devices such as PDA (personal digital
assistants), smart phones or mobile phones. Latest addition are slates,
iPad, Tablets
These applications are either pre-installed on phones during
manufacture, or downloaded by customers from app stores and other
mobile software distribution platforms.
5. There are many platforms that a developer can choose for an application.
Each of these are mostly mutually incompatible (that is, an application
developed on one platform will not run on another) and furthermore each
handheld device only supports one particular platform.
Therefore to maximize reach and revenue for their applications, a
developer must decide carefully which platforms they will support.

Pocket PC 2000, originally codenamed "Rapier",[13] was released on April 19, 2000, and was based on Windows CE 3.0. It was the debut of what was later dubbed the Windows Mobile operating system, and meant to be a successor to the operating system aboard Palm-Size PCs. Backwards compatibility was retained with such Palm-Size PC applications. Pocket PC 2000 was intended mainly for Pocket PC devices, however several Palm-Size PC devices had the ability to be updated also. Further, several Pocket PC 2000 phones were released, however Microsoft's "Smartphone" hardware platform was not yet created. The only resolution supported by this release was 240 x 320 (QVGA). Removable storage card formats that were supported were CompactFlash and MultiMediaCard. At this time Pocket PC devices had not been standardized with a specific CPU architecture. As a result, Pocket PC 2000 was released on multiple CPU architectures; SH-3, MIPS, and ARM.
Pocket PC 2002, originally codenamed "Merlin",[13] was released in October 2001. Like Pocket PC 2000, it was powered by Windows CE 3.0. Although targeted mainly for 240 × 320 (QVGA) Pocket PC devices, Pocket PC 2002 was also used for Pocket PC phones, and for the first time, Smartphones.[15] These Pocket PC 2002 Smartphones were mainly GSM devices. With future releases, the Pocket PC and Smartphone lines would increasingly collide as the licensing terms were relaxed allowing OEMs to take advantage of more innovative, individual design ideas. Aesthetically, Pocket PC 2002 was meant to be similar in design to the then newly released Windows XP.New features and built-in applications included the following
Windows Mobile 2003 (aka wm2003 and WM2003), originally codenamed "Ozone",[13] was released on June 23, 2003, and was the first release under the Windows Mobile banner. It came in four editions: "Windows Mobile 2003 for Pocket PC Premium Edition", "Windows Mobile 2003 for Pocket PC Professional Edition", "Windows Mobile 2003 for Smartphone" and "Windows Mobile 2003 for Pocket PC Phone Edition". The last was designed especially for Pocket PCs which include phone functionalities. The Professional Edition was used in Pocket PC budget models. It lacked a number of features that were in the Premium Edition, such as a client for L2TP/IPsec VPNs. Windows Mobile 2003 was powered by Windows CE 4.20.Windows Mobile 2003 Second Edition, also known as "Windows Mobile 2003 SE", was released on March 24, 2004 and first offered on the DellAxim x30. This was the last version which allowed users to backup and restore an entire device through ActiveSync.
Windows Mobile 5.0, originally codenamed "Magneto",[13] was released at Microsoft's Mobile and Embedded Developers Conference 2005 in Las Vegas, May 9–12, 2005. Microsoft offered mainstream support for Windows Mobile 5 through October 12, 2010, and extended support through October 13, 2015.[21] It was first offered on the Dell Axim x51. It used the .NET Compact Framework 1.0 SP3, an environment for programs based on .NET.Windows Mobile 5.0 included Microsoft Exchange Server "push" functionality improvements that worked with Exchange 2003 SP2.[22] The "push" functionality also required vendor/device support[23] With AKU2 software upgrades all WM 5.0 devices supported DirectPush.WM 5.0 featured increased battery life due to Persistent storage capability. Previously up to 50% (enough for 72 hours of storage) of battery power was reserved just to maintain data in volatile RAM. This continued the trend of Windows-based devices moving from using RAM as their primary storage medium to the use of a combination of RAM and flash memory (in use, no distinction between the two is obvious to users). Programs and frequently accessed data run in RAM, while most storage is in the flash memory. The OS seamlessly moves data between the two as needed. Everything is backed up in the flash memory, so unlike prior devices, WM5 devices lose no data if power is lost.With Windows Mobile 5.0, OS updates were released as Adaptation kit upgrades. AKU 3.5 is the most recent release for WM 5.0.Further new features and built-in applications included:New version of Office called "Office Mobile" PowerPoint MobileGraphing capability in Excel MobileTables and graphics insertion in Word MobileWindows Media Player 10 MobilePhoto Caller IDDirectShow supportPicture and Video package, which converged the management of videos and picturesEnhanced Bluetooth supportGlobal Positioning System (GPS) management interfaceDefault QWERTY keyboard-supportError reporting facility similar to that present in desktop and server Windows systemsActiveSync 4.2 with 15% increased synchronization speed
Windows Mobile 6, formerly codenamed "Crossbow",[13] was released on February 12, 2007[24] at the 3GSM World Congress 2007. It comes in three different versions: "Windows Mobile 6 Standard" for Smartphones (phones without touchscreens), "Windows Mobile 6 Professional" for Pocket PCs with phone functionality, and "Windows Mobile 6 Classic" for Pocket PCs without cellular radios.[25]Windows Mobile 6 is powered by Windows CE 5.0 (version 5.2) and is strongly linked to Windows Live and Exchange 2007 products. Windows Mobile 6 Standard was first offered on the Orange's SPV E650,[26] while Windows Mobile 6 Professional was first offered on the O2's Xda Terra.[27] Aesthetically, Windows Mobile 6 was meant to be similar in design to the then newly released Windows Vista. Functionally, it works much like Windows Mobile 5, but with much better stability.New features/built-in applications include the following:[28]320x320 and 800x480 (WVGA) screen resolution support (The S01SH or "Em One" by Sharp was the first and only device to have a 800x480 screen on WM5)[29]Office Mobile support for SmartphonesOperating System Live Update[30]Improved Remote Desktop access[31] (Available for only certain Pocket PCs)[32]VoIP (Internet calling) support with AEC (Acoustic Echo Cancelling) and MSRT Audio CodecWindows Live for Windows Mobile[33]Customer Feedback option[34]Enhanced Microsoft Bluetooth StackStorage Card Encryption (encryption keys are lost if device is cold-booted).Smartfilter for searching within programsImproved Internet SharingHTML email support in Outlook MobileSearch ability for contacts in an Exchange Server Address BookAJAX, JavaScript, and XMLDOM support on Internet Explorer MobileOut of Office Replies with Microsoft Exchange 2007Unlicensed Mobile Access (UMA) support for select operatorsServer Search on Microsoft Exchange 2007.NET Compact Framework v2 SP2 Preinstalled in ROMMicrosoft SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition Preinstalled in ROMOneNote Mobile as a companion to Microsoft Office OneNoteOffice Mobile 6.1 announced[35] with support for Office 2007 document formats (pptx, docx, xlsx).Windows Mobile 6.1Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional Today ScreenWindows Mobile 6.1 was announced April 1, 2008. It is a minor upgrade to the Windows Mobile 6 platform with various performance enhancements and a redesigned Home screen featuring horizontal tiles that expand on clicking to display more information, although this new home screen is featured only on Windows Mobile Standard edition. This was not supported in the Professional edition.[36] Several other changes such as threaded SMS, full page zooming in Internet Explorer and 'Domain Enroll' were also added, along with a "mobile" version of the Microsoft OneNote program and an interactive "Getting Started" wizard. Domain Enroll is functionality to connect the device to System Center Mobile Device Manager 2008, a product to manage mobile devices.[37] The most apparent of the other differences is that the Standard version (like prior versions) still creates automatic links for telephone numbers in Tasks and Appointments, which allows for the easier click and dial of stored telephone numbers within these Outlook items. This feature is not supported in the Professional version. Windows Mobile 6.1 also had improved bandwidth efficiency in its push-email protocol "Activesync" of "up to 40%";[38] this considerably improved battery life in many devices.Aside from the visual and feature distinctions, the underlying CE versions can be used to differentiate WM6.0 from WM 6.1. The version of Windows CE in WM 6.0 is 5.2.*, with the final number being a 4 digit build ID (e.g. 5.2.1622 on HTC Wing). In WM 6.1, the CE version is 5.2.* with a 5 digit build number (e.g. 5.2.19216 on Palm Treo 800w).
Windows Mobile 6.5 was never part of Microsoft's mobile phone roadmap, and has been described by its chief executive, Steve Ballmer, as "not the full release [Microsoft] wanted" until the multi-touch-enabled Windows Mobile 7 (now replaced by Windows Phone 7) arrived in 2010.[39] Version 6.5 is an upgrade to Windows Mobile 6.1 that was released to manufacturers on May 11, 2009; the first devices running the operating system appeared in late October 2009.[40] This minor incremental update includes some significant new added features, such as a revamped GUI, new Today screen with vertically scrollable labels (called 'Titanium').[41] WM6.5 also includes the new Internet Explorer Mobile 6 browser, with improved interface.[42]Microsoft unveiled this version at the 2009 Mobile World Congress in February,[43] and several devices were supplied with it;[44] devices running Windows Mobile 6.5 and later are marketed as "Windows phones". Along with Windows Mobile 6.5, Microsoft announced several Cloud computing services codenamed "SkyBox", "SkyLine", "SkyMarket".[45] "SkyBox" has been confirmed as My Phone,[46] while "SkyMarket" has been confirmed as Windows Marketplace for Mobile.[47] Some aspects of the user interface were redesigned, with the home screen resembling that of Microsoft's Zune player and the sliding panel interface of Windows Mobile 6.1 Standard. This version was designed mainly for easier finger usage.[48] Whilst this version of Windows Mobile does not natively support capacitive screens, mobile manufacturers have been able to use them on their devices [49]Windows Mobile 6.5.1Builds of Windows Mobile 6.5.1 have been unofficially ported to several Windows Mobile phones.[51] Windows Mobile 6.5.1 brings a more finger-friendly user interface,[52] including icon based soft buttons (rather than text based),[53] an updated contacts app,[54] Microsoft (rather than the mobile carrier) support for A-GPS,[52] improved threaded text messaging,[55] and performance improvements.[56][edit] Windows Mobile 6.5.3A Screenshot of the Windows Phone 6.5.3 Today Screen 'Titanium' (notice the new location of the start button)On February 2, 2010, the Sony Ericsson Aspen with Windows Mobile 6.5.3 was officially announced, making it the first Windows Phone 6.5.3 smartphone.[57] Since November 2009, several 6.5.3 builds had leaked (28nnn) and had been unofficially ported to some Windows Phones.Windows Mobile 6.5.3 brings a more finger-friendly user interface with several new usability features such as support for multitouch, complete touch control i.e. no need for a stylus, and drag-and-drop start menu icons. Touchable tiles replaced soft keys."[58] Internet Explorer Mobile 6 has also received some major updates including decreased page load time, improved memory management and gesture smoothing.[59]Additional features of newer Windows Mobile 6.5.3 builds include threaded email and Office Mobile 2010.[59][edit] Windows Mobile 6.5.5Several builds of Windows Mobile 6.5.x leaked since January 2010, and were unofficially ported to some Windows Mobile phones.[60] The name Windows Mobile 6.5.5 has been applied to these newer builds, although this name remains unconfirmed by Microsoft.
Windows Phone 7 was launched in Europe, Singapore and Australia on October 21, 2010, and in the US & Canada on November 8, 2010, with the rest of the world to follow in 2011.[62] Microsoft had originally planned to continue the Windows Mobile line to Windows Mobile 7, based on an upgrade to the Windows Mobile platform, codenamed Photon. The original Photon and Windows Mobile 7 have since been scrapped; however, Microsoft decided to create a new mobile OS platform and officially announced Windows Phone 7 Series in its place.[63] Microsoft has since renamed the operating system from Windows Phone 7 Series to Windows Phone 7.[64]Windows Phone 7 was initially intended to be released during 2009, but several delays, likely due to the move away from Photon and to building an entirely different and new platform, prompted Microsoft to develop Windows Mobile 6.5 as an interim release. During the Mobile World Congress 2010 in Barcelona, Microsoft revealed details of Windows Phone 7, which features a new operating system and integration with Xbox Live and Zune services.
