Course Overview: This five-day course provides an introduction to Java programming with a focus on coding for wireless devices. Students first learn the Java language and development process, including OO concepts and techniques, working with the Java 2 Standard Edition, or J2SE. Then they learn how to create wireless applications with the Java 2 Micro Edition, or J2ME, and the Mobile Informati...

This paper presents a system whose purpose is to monitor a patient continuously from indoor or outdoor environments. The system is based on a Bluetooth PAN, carried by the patient, whose central node, a smart phone, compiles information about patient’s location and health status. These data are encrypted to be sent to a server through Wifi or GPRS/UMTS. The system provides facilities to access ...

In their analysis of the use of Java as a first teaching language, the ACM Java Task Force (JTF) identified a number of issues with the Java language and APIs which caused significant pedagogic problems. The focus of their work, and hence of their characterisation of the issues, was the Java “Standard Edition” (J2SE). This paper contends that the version of Java designed for programming small d...

Many mobile and wireless devices are connecting to the Internet nowadays, among them, mobile phones and PDAs are the most popular ones. Thus, in this paper, we will focus on how to develop embedded software running on the two devices by using design patterns and Java based software components. Notably, some components may be used directly in an embedded software system, whereas most components ...

J2ME services play an important role in the field of Communication industry. In this paper, we discuss and analyze the consumptive behaviour based on object pool with RMS capabilities. We discuss and analyze different aspects of RMS mining techniques and their behaviour in mobile devices. We also analyze the better method or rule of implementing services which is more suitable for mobile device...

use of wireless technology, but the role-playing game, Samurai Romanesque, shown in Figure 1, from Japanese game developer Dwango is no trivial matter. The game is available on Japan’s NTT DoCoMo packetswitched i-mode network. Players take a virtual journey through 15th-century Japan, engage other players in real-time battles, visit a thousand historical towns and villages, practice the art of ...

A Text-To-Speech (TTS) synthesiser is a computer-based system that should be able to read any text aloud, whether it was directly introduced in the computer by an operator or scanned and submitted to an Optical Character Recognition (OCR) system. This project presents the design and implementation of a speech synthesiser for portable devices. The TTS implementation was developed for J2ME. This ...
