Sessions at JAX San Jose about Mobile on Tuesday 21st June

With great power comes great responsibility. On the Android platform developers have unprecedented access to smartphones resources. However, this opportunity can quickly turn against you with bad market ratings if your application does not respect the battery life expectations of the user. In this talk we will discuss where the power goes in a typical smartphone, the difficulty of predicting power for different platforms and why improvements in battery technology are not keeping pace with increased demand. Different methods for estimating or measuring power will also be considered to empower developers to get feedback on their application's real-time usage. Lastly, we will discuss different profiling and optimization techniques on Android that can help reduce the amount of power consumed.

This session will look at the various strategies for utilizing a Spring back-end with social and mobile platforms, such as consumption of RESTful services, server-push style messaging, authentication and authorization via Oauth to integrate with social network sites such as Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn.

The word just came down from the VP - you need a mobile app and you need it yesterday. It needs to be polished and have that design stuff too.

More and more developers are falling in love with the "write less do more" library and for good reason; it simplifies the job of today's front end engineer. But did you know jQuery could also help you with your mobile needs as well? That's right, jQuery Mobile is a touch optimized framework designed to provide a common look and feel across a wide variety of today's mot popular platforms. In this session, we'll take a look at all that jQuery Mobile has to offer and we'll convert a native application to an HTML5, jQuery Mobile masterpiece.
