31、thout phone features. Based on the Windows CE 5.0 operating system and has been designed to integrate with Windows Live and Exchange products. Software development for the platform is typically done using Visual C+ or .NET Compact Framework. When native client-side functionality is not needed, serve

32、r-side code can be used that is deployed on a mobile browser, such as the Internet Explorer Mobile bundled with Windows Mobile. Windows Mobile 7 was announced in 2010,Compact Framework,The .NET Compact Framework is a subset of the .NET Framework and shares many components with the desktop software d

33、evelopment environment. The framework includes optimized Common Language Runtime (CLR) a subset of the .NET Framework class library, which supports features such as Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) and Windows Forms. It also contains classes that are designed exclusively for the .NET Compact F

34、ramework. A platform adaptation layer exists between Windows CE and the common language runtime mapping the services and device interfaces required by the CLR and Framework onto Windows CE services and interfaces. The expectation is that managed components developed using .NET languages, such as C#,

35、 are used to create the applications. It is also possible to use the Win32 API with .NET CF, which allows directly to access OS features.,Runtime,The .NET Compact Framework CLR is made up of the following three component: class libraries execution engine platform adaptation layer The purpose of the

36、class libraries is to provide a basic set of classes, interfaces, and value types the foundation for developing applications in .NET. The execution engine is the core component of the CLR. It provides the fundamental services needed for executing managed code. The execution engine includes component

37、s such as a JIT compiler, a class and module loader, and a garbage collector The PAL layer maps calls from the execution engine to the functions of the underlying operating system.,Symbian port of .NET CF,The main differences observed in the porting process were the following: A C+ dialect that rede

Extensively used client/server model that, for example, implies constraints for accessing file and networking functions. Event-driven programming model with a focus on non-preemptive multitasking.

The iPhone OS is based on four abstraction layers, namely the Core OS layer, the Core Services layer, the Media

42、 layer, and the Cocoa Touch layer.,iPhone OS,The iPhone OSs user interface is based on multi-touch gestures. Interface control elements consist of sliders, switches, and buttons. Interaction with the OS includes gestures such as swiping, tapping, pinching, and reverse pinching. Additionally, using i

45、 Internet Tablet OS, which is based on Debian GNU/Linux and draws much of its GUI, frameworks, and libraries from the GNOME project. Maemo is based on the Linux operating system kernel, which is a monolithic kernel that supports multiple hardware platforms. It uses the Matchbox window manager, and l

46、ike Ubuntu Mobile, it uses the GTK-based Hildon as its GUI and application framework. The Maemo platform is intended for Internet tablets, which are smaller than laptops, but larger and more versatile than PDAs. A tablet may have a small keyboard, and central characteristics include a stylus and a t
