Mobile computing is becoming mainstream. Mobile computing can add great value to internal business processes, as well as offering ISVs plenty of opportunities.
However due to the complexity of the mobile eco-system as a result of diversity of technology platforms and a complex value chain, a mobile software developer faces many technical choices and commercial hurdles. This talk provides an overview of the mobile ecosystem from a commercial and technical perspective, and details some of key technological and commercial issues. Java does play a particular important in this story due to its current dominance as a mobile software platform.
We will also demonstrate alcheMo Java to native platform porting solution which solves the platform fragmentation issue. Incorporating an advanced Java to C++ translator and an optimized run-time library, alcheMo extends Sun's "Write Once, Run Anywhere" philosophy to native platforms without access to a Java Virtual Machine. alcheMo makes it possible to maintain a single code base in J2ME while developing for the key native platforms (such as BREW, iPhone, Windows Mobile).
