Objectives

The student understands the prospects of different mobile technologies for implementation of functional applications in mobile devices. The student is able to implement small-scale applications for various mobile platforms using various mobile technologies. The student is able to work as a project group member in a project concerning a research assignment.

Competences:
EU-EN EUR-ACE Engineering Analysis
EU-KN EUR-ACE Knowledge and Understanding

Content

The course consists of lectures introducing various technologies that can be used to implement applications for mobile devices.

The topics discussed are commonly and currently used cross-platform mobile technologies that can be used to implement applications for various mobile platforms. The students deepen their competence by selecting one technology for a mobile device and implementing a research assignment on the topic area in small groups.

The research assignment includes familiarization with the selected mobile technology and creating a small-scale mobile application. The results of the research assignment are documented and presented in a seminar. The research task can be continued as a course assignment in Mobile Project course.
