MOBILE OS

MOBILE OS

• The software that allows mobile devices such as phones ,tablet,and other smart devices such
as wireable technologies to run applications and other programmes is known as mobile os.
When the mobile devices is turned on it typically displays a screen with icons or square
that display information and offer an access to an application .

• operating system is a software that provides a link between a user and the system
hardware . Furthermore, it manages all interactions between software and hardware.
• Service provided by an os
ü Program execution
ü Handling input/output operation
ü Maniplulation of file system
ü Error detection and handling
ü Resource allocation
• The operating system found on smartphones include Symbian OS,iPhone
OS,RIM’s Blackberry,Windows mobile,palm WebOS , Android ,and
maemo.Android ,WebOS ,and Meamo are all derived from linux .

• It combines the beauty of computer and hand used devices .It typically contains
a cellular built -in modem and Internet connection .

• If you buy a mobile the manufacturer company chooses the OS for that specific
device.
 BASIC FOR DEVELOPING THE OS

• Create the illusion of having one or more objects to emulate the real object.It is closely related to abstraction. In

developing the os , abstraction provides simplification by combining multiple simple object into a single complex
object

• Virtualization provides diversification and replication by creating the illusion of objects with desired characteristic
 CORE OS LAYER

• All the ios technologies are build under the lowest level layer i.e core os
layer
• These technologies include
•
Ø External accessories
framework
Ø Accelerated framework
Ø Security service framework

 IOS

IOS consist of a number of different software layers ,each of which provides

programming frameworks for the development of application that run on top of the
underlying hardware
These operating system layers can be presented diagrammatically as

COCOA TOUCH

• COCOA Touch is also known as the application layer which acts as an

interface for the user to work with the iOS Operating system. It
supports touch and motion events and many more features
• The COCOA TOUCH layer provides the following frameworks :
• EvenKit Framework
• GameKit Framework
• MapKit Framework
• PushKit Framework.
MEDIA LAYER

• By taking the media layer’s help, we will enable all graphics video, and audio
technology of the system. This is the second layer in the architecture. The
different frameworks of MEDIA layers
• ULKit Graphics
• Core Graphics Framework
• Core Animation
• Media Player Framework
• AV Kit
• Open AL
• GL Kit
CORE SERVICES LAYER

Some important frameworks are present in the CORE SERVICES Layer which helps the
iOS operating system to cure itself and provide better functionality. It is the 2nd lowest
layer in the Architecture as shown above. Below are some important frameworks present
in this layer:
• Address Book Framework
• Cloud Kit Framework
• Core Data Framework
• Core Foundation Framework
• Core Location Framework
• Core Motion Framework
• Foundation Framework
• HealthKit Framework
CORE OS LAYER

All the IOS technologies are built under the lowest level layer i.e. Core OS
layer. These technologies include:
• Core Bluetooth Framework
• External Accessories Framework
• Accelerate Framework
• Security Services Framework
• Local Authorization Framework etc
• It supports 64 bit which enables the application to run
ADVANTAGES OF IOS OPERATING SYSTEM

Advantages
• More secure than other operating systems
• Fluid responsive with a great UI
• Most Suitable for Business and Professionals
• Produce less heat compared to Android
DISADVANTAGES OF IOS OPERATING SYSTEM

Disadvantages
• More Expensive
• Less User Friendly than the Android Operating System
• Not Flexible remain to support only IOS devices
• Battery Performance Decreases
