  • Due to resource constraints, most of Android application developers need to address potential performance problems during application development and maintenance. The coding styles and patterns of Android programming could often affect the execution time and energy efficiency which are utilized by the Android applications. Thus, it is necessary for application developers to apply performance-enhancing programming practices for mobile application development. This paper introduces performance-enhancing best practices for Android programming, and further, it evaluates the impact of these practices on the CPU time of the application. The original version with the performance-worsening code has been refactored to become an efficient version without changing its functionality. To demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed approach, each coding pattern was evaluated by measuring the CPU time under the controlled runtime environment. Furthermore, the Android applications were evaluated and compared via the CPU time of the original version, with that of the refactored version. These experimental results indicate that, by -using the proposed programming practices, the Android developer can develop performance-efficient mobile applications.

  • Recently, with the rapid development of android-based smartphones, it is becomes a major security issue that the case of Android platform is an open platform. so it is easy to be a target of mobile virus penetration and hacking. Even there are a variety of security mechanisms to prevent the vulnerable points of the Android platform but the reason of most of the security mechanisms were designed at application-level that highly vulnerable to the attacks directly to the operating system or attacks using the disadvantages of an application's. It is necessary that the complementary of the android platform kernel blocks the kernel vulnerability and the application vulnerability. In this paper, we proposed a secure system using linux-based android kernel applied to LIDS(Linux Intrusion Detection and Defense System) and applied a smart phone with s5pc110 chip. As a result, the unauthorized alteration of the application was prevented with a proposed secure system.

  • Due to the rapid growth of smartphone market, the security threats are also increased. One of the smartphone security threats is that w1Verified applications are distributed on the smartphone market. In the case of Andoroid market, Google have no Application Approval Process that can detect malicious android application so many malicious android applications are distributed in the Android market. To reduce this security threat, it is essential the skill to detect the malicious activities of application. In this paper, we propose the android application analysis method for malicious activity detection and we introduce the implementation of our method which can automatically analyze the android application.

  • In this paper, we implemented the Android NDK porting application with Eclipse(JDK) ADT and TinyOS 2.0. TinyOS and Cygwin are component based embedded system and an Open-source basis for interfacing with sensor application from H-mote. Cygwin is a collection of tools for using the Linux environment for commercially released with x86 32 bit and 64 bit versions of Windows. TinyOS-2. x is a component based embedded OS by UC Berkeley and is an Open-source OS designed for interfacing the sensor application with specific C-language. The results of Android porting experiment are described to show the improvement of sensor interfacing functionality under the PXA320 embedded RTOS platform. We will further more develop the software programming of Android porting under Embedded platform and enhance the functionality of the Android SDK with mobile gaming and kernel programming under sensor interfacing activity.

  • As smart phone users increase the number of users who insert credit cards into wallet type smart phone cases is increasing. In this paper, we developed an Android application for preventing credit card loss in a wallet type smart phone case using the NFC (Near Field Communication) technology of smart phone. The developed android application uses the NFC reading and writing functions of the smart phone. When the credit card is inserted into the wallet type smart phone case, the android application detects the NFC tag in the credit card and registers credit card information. When the credit card is removed from the smart phone case, the Android application automatically detects the credit card loss and notifies to the user. The user can check and finds the location information of the lost credit card on the map of the Android application. We can easily develop the Android application for preventing credit card loss when a function that automatically detects an leaving NFC tag is added to Android.

  • In this paper, GRS chip driven JNI code application SW design based on Android platform was designed and fabricated as motion gesture frame module based on Android platform. The serial data reception module design proposed by the application-based network support API technology was designed with Android-based module design, Android-based module implementation, and Android-based function module implementation design. The data information of the sensor could be checked through Android applications such as classes of serial communication drivers, libraries, and frameworks for receiving data from wireless communication devices through Android OS applications. In addition, applications in Android implement application SW that can judge motion gestures in four directions using Java.

  • 본 논문에서는 Android System 핵심 부분을 기존의 System Server 에 Application Server 를 더하여 2개의 서버로 재구성하는 방안을 논의한다. Application Server 는 DalvikVM 과 Application 저장/스케줄링 프로세스로 구성한다. Application Server 가 모든 사용자의 Application 을 저장하고 스케줄링하고 DalvikVM에 할당하여 실행시키도록 한다. 이 방법은 사용자 입장에서는 단순화된 Android System 구조로 인하여 응용의 개발이 용이해지고 응용의 반응도 빠르게 된다. 시스템 입장에서도 구조가 단순해져서 실행 효율이 좋아지고 메모리 사용 효율도 좋아진다.

  • The market for smart phones has been booming in the past few years. There are now over 400,000 applications on the Android market. Over 10 billion Android applications have been downloaded from the Android market. Due to the Android popularity, there are now a large number of malicious vendors targeting the platform. Many honest end users are being successfully hacked on a regular basis. In this work, a cloud based reputation security model has been proposed as a solution which greatly mitigates the malicious attacks targeting the Android market. Our security solution takes advantage of the fact that each application in the android platform is assigned a unique user id (UID). Our solution stores the reputation of Android applications in an anti-malware providers' cloud (AM Cloud). The experimental results witness that the proposed model could well identify the reputation index of a given application and hence its potential of being risky or not.

  • In this paper, we propose a log management service model for efficient developments of android applications. The proposed model consists of two major parts which are the log collector and the log manager service. The log collector can capture the log information of a target application without modifications, because the collector is composed by aspect-oriented programming. The collected logs are transformed to chunk of data, and the chunk of data is sent to the log management service. The log management service is an android service component and an independent application in another process. So, the log management service can reduce the workload of logging in the target application. Through a case study, we show that the proposed log management service model can reduce the log processing time compared to other models without modifications of a target application.

  • In mobile market which has been developed drastically, short distance mobile Near Field Communication is becoming the conversation topic. Google adopted this NFC technology to Android 플랫폼 for securing the leadership and many another countries including domestic companies are putting spurs to develop service and technology by connecting mobile carrier and the financial. Within this circumstance, most noticeable issue is securing stability of nfc application service. Android 플랫폼 is operating system of mobile device and also a software stack which is required limited hardware and immediate response. However, since its structural characteristic which is suitable for limited hardware, the response is not quite stable for real time process. That is, this paper researches by analyzing real time response of NFC related library provided from Android 플랫폼 and applying the result to NFC application for securing stable data process and response.
