Question 2: Nowadays, even smart phones have their unique operating system. Draw a table of comparison between the two most popular OS in smart phones, which are Android and Windows 8.
Smart
Phones Operating System (OS)
Differences
|
Android
|
Windows 8
|
The Store
|
Google Play
|
Windows Phone Marketplace
|
Integrated Development Environment
(IDE)
|
Eclipse, JVM is required
|
Visual Studio 2012 Express, Windows 8
pro/Enterprise x64 version is required
|
Emulator
|
Slow, but Google is making a good
progress with snapshot option and hardware acceleration for new machines.
Also, there is an open source project called Android x80 which runs very fast
under a virtual machine and could be an amazing alternative to the emulator.
|
Fast, it uses hyper-v for
virtualisation. That gives a good impact on its responsiveness.
|
UI Design
|
Design in Android is not appreciated
by developers, you have to write a lot of XML to get what you need, the drag
and drop tool is not that good.
|
Well designed, uses new graphic style
called modern UI Design
