Excellent book on smartphone and mobile computing technologies
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
This book is the most comprehensive reference on smartphone/mobile computing on the market so far. It not only covers mobile computing fundamentals such as wireless networking support and hardware/software platforms, but also provides in-depth discussion on advanced topics like security, QoS, and challenges facing various mobile applications. Its level of detail not found in other books could benefit a large group of emerging mobile application developers like myself. Highly recommended!
