In modern technology over 40% of the mobile devices have 64-bit support. In late 2017 Google announced that in 2019 the Android market will require a 64-bit support on all of the applications published on their platform. Apple has had this requirement since 2015. The objective of this is to raise performance and security of apps and therefore the device itself. This project is to research about how to upgrade an application from 32-bit support to 64-bits support and perform the upgrade of a math application “Mingo Matte”. A theoretical study was made to decide which platform would suit this project the best. Then by upgrading the already existing code to a new syntax a new fully 64-bit supported application was made. This project is brought by the company Mingo Education and all its earnings goes toward “Läkare I världen” which is a company that provides healthcare to who doesn’t have access to it. / I dagens samhälle så består 40% av mobilmarknaden av telefoner med 64-bitars support. Sent år 2017 så förmedlade Google att till 2019 så kommer det att krävas att alla applikationer som läggs upp på deras marknad har stöd för 64-bitar. Apple har själva haft detta kravet sedan 2015. Meningen med detta är att maximera prestandan och säkerheten av applikationen och därmed för enheten själv. Detta projekt har som mål att undersöka hur och vad som krävs för att uppgradera en redan befintlig app ”Mingo Matte”, från att endast stödja 32-bitar till 64-bitar. En förundersökning gjordes för att undersöka och utvärdera vilken plattform som passade utvecklingen av projektet bäst. Sedan efter uppdatering av den äldre koden till ny syntax, så blev en ny applikation med 64-bitars stöd skapad. Projektet gavs av företaget Mingo Education och alla deras vinster går mot ”Läkare I Världen”, vilket är en organisation som get sjukvård till de som inte har tillgång till det.

abstract: Debugging is a hard task. Debugging multi-threaded applications with their inherit non-determinism is all the more difficult. Non-determinism of any kind adds to the difficulty of cyclic debugging. In Android applications which are written in Java, threads and concurrency constructs introduce non-determinism to the program execution. Even with the same input, consecutive runs may not be the same and reproducing the same bug is a challenging task. This makes it difficult to understand and analyze the execution behavior or to understand the source of a failing execution. This thesis introduces a replay mechanism for Android applications written in Java and is based on the Lamport Clock. This tool provides the user with a controlled debugging environment, where the program execution follows the identical partially ordered happened-before dependency among threads, as during the recorded execution. In this, certain significant events like thread creation, synchronization etc. are recorded during run-time. They can later be replayed off-line, as many times as needed to pinpoint and fix an error in the application. It is software based approach and has been implemented by modifying the Dalvik Virtual Machine in the Android platform. The method of replay described in this thesis is independent of the underlying operating system scheduler. / Dissertation/Thesis / M.S. Computer Science 2011

abstract: The Open Services Gateway initiative (OSGi) framework is a standard of module system and service platform that implements a complete and dynamic component model. Currently most of OSGi implementations are implemented by Java, which has similarities of Android language. With the emergence of Android operating system, due to the similarities between Java and Android, the integration of module system and service platform from OSGi to Android system attracts more and more attention. How to make OSGi run in Android is a hot topic, further, how to find a mechanism to enable communication between OSGi and Android system is a more advanced area than simply making OSGi running in Android. This paper, which aimed to fulfill SOA (Service Oriented Architecture) and CBA (Component Based Architecture), proposed a solution on integrating Felix OSGi platform with Android system in order to build up Distributed OSGi framework between mobile phones upon XMPP protocol. And in this paper, it not only successfully makes OSGi run on Android, but also invents a mechanism that makes a seamless collaboration between these two platforms. / Dissertation/Thesis / M.S.

The use of capacitive soil moisture sensors allows the monitoring of soil moisture levels and, consequently, an automation irrigation. Therefore, an automatic irrigation system,demads communication betweenthe controller and the starting and sensing points. When there are large distances between them, appears a necessity to use Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) to reduce costs and connect these points through radio frequency communication. According with the exposed, the present work was goal developed na WSN providing a communication between the modules that control the components of the irrigation system. The work was desenvolved in the Laboratory of Electronics and Agricultural Mechanics (LEMA) of the Federal University of Ceará (UFC). Initially modules were developed to: collect and transmit capacitive sensor data (sensor module); control of valve control latch and set irrigation sectors (valve tristle module); control the motor-pumpassociatedwithfrequencyinverter (pump house module); accomplishthe interface between field modules andmanagement software (control module). After than, the development of control software based on the Android operating system for mobile devices, having as a development platform the online paltform MIT APP Inventor. It was observed in the results thatthe developed hardware it meets the communication needs between the control module and the set modules and the sensing modules. The sensor module precise performed thedata acquisition coming fromthe capacitive sensors of soilmoisture,as well the valve tristle module it was able to open and closeof the valve control latch in a satisfactory manner. Themobile applie,"IrrigBlue",developed for Android devices was able to processthe dataspackets received from the WSN, processing and return to the user the status ofirrigation system, besides generating data packets withset comandingsof the irrigation systemthrough the "IrrigBlue" hardware. / A irrigação de precisão consiste na aplicação da água no local, momento e quantidade demandada pela cultura, e para que isso seja possível são necessários métodos que proporcionem parâmetros de decisão tornando o ato de irrigar menos empírico e mais técnico. O uso de sensores capacitivos de umidade de solo possibilita o acompanhamento dos níveis de umidade no solo e, consequentemente, a automatização da irrigação. Sendo assim, um sistema automático de irrigação demanda comunicação entre o controlador e os pontos de acionamento e de sensoriamento. Quando existem grandes distâncias entre eles, surge a necessidade do uso de Rede de Sensores Sem Fio (RSSF) para reduzir custos e conectar esses pontos através da comunicação via rádio frequência. Pelo exposto acima, o presente trabalho teve como objetivo geral desenvolver uma RSSF proporcionando a comunicação necessária entre os módulos que controlam os componentes do sistema de irrigação. O trabalho foi realizado no Laboratório de Eletrônica e Mecânica Agrícola (LEMA) da Universidade Federal do Ceará (UFC). Inicialmente foram desenvolvidos módulos para: coletar e transmitir dados de sensores capacitivos (módulo sensor); controlar válvulas de controle latche acionar setores de irrigação (módulo cavalete de válvulas); controlar o conjunto motor-bomba e inversor de frequência associado (módulo casa de bombas); e realizar interface entre módulos de campo e software de gerenciamento da rede (módulo controle). Em seguida, o desenvolvimento do software de controle em base ao sistema operacional Android para dispositivos móveis, tendo como plataforma de desenvolvimento o ambiente online MIT APP Inventor. Foi observado nos resultados obtidos que o hardware desenvolvido atende às necessidades de comunicação entre o módulo de controle e os módulos de acionamento e de sensoriamento. O módulo sensor realizou de forma precisa a aquisição de dados proveniente dos sensores capacitivos de umidade do solo, bem como o módulo cavalete de válvulas foi capaz de realizar a abertura e fechamento das válvulas de acionamento latch de maneira satisfatória. O aplicativo mobile“ IrrigBlue” desenvolvido para dispositivos Android mostrou-se capaz para tratar os pacotes de dados recebidos da RSSF, processando-os e retornando para o usuário o status do sistema de irrigação, além de gerar pacotes de dados com comandos de acionamento do sistema de irrigação através do hardware “IrrigBlue”.

Title: Framework for geolocation-based Android applications using Linked Data Author: Bc. Matej Snoha The aim of this thesis is to design and implement a framework for geolo- cation based mobile applications using Linked Data. Introduced are Linked Data technologies in the context of mobile application develop- ment, data modeling, and geographical queries. This work follows the software development lifecycle from requirement gathering, software analysis, design of the application framework and its individual compo- nents, up to the implementation of required functionality and subsequent deployment and evaluation of the functional application framework. The resulting implementation of the framework consists of a mobile applica- tion that displays nearby places from Linked Data datasets on a map and a cloud service with a repository of required definitions. It serves to demonstrate functionality of the theoretical part of the work in real-life scenarios.

As science races to keep up with science fiction, many scientists are beginning to believe that the next step in human evolution will be a combination of human and machine and look a lot like something out of Star Trek. The constant pursuit of perfection is a part of the human condition, but if we begin to stretch beyond the natural human form can we still consider ourselves human? Transhumanism and posthumanism are only theories for now, but they are theories that threaten to permanently displace the human race, possibly pushing it into extinction. This thesis will look at the theories of transhumanism and posthumanism through the lens of science fiction and ask the question of whether or not technology holds the key to humanities next evolutionary step or its demise.

Master of Science / Department of Computing and Information Sciences / Daniel Andresen / Android balloon game application is an android application which helps in improving the children’s vocabulary power. This application provides a graphical user interface with words as questions and balloons as the options. The end user will have to select a balloon in order to select an answer. There are three modules in this application which are game mode, new game and high scores. In the basic module questions like Alpha_bet are included. Also as an enhancement, the game is made interesting by giving the user three lives to clear the levels of the game. Three small balloons are included in the application which resemble the three lives and once an incorrect answer is selected, the green balloon will be replaced by a red balloon depicting an incorrect answer. Also the scores will be computed for every correct option that is selected by the user. The score is incremented by ten points for every correct answer. And for the high score section, the game would maintain the list of top players. High score section will consist of the user’s name, score, time and date for the gameplay. Apart from that a next button is included which helps the user to skip a word which the user finds it difficult to answer. A hint option is also provided in the game which pronounces the word helping the user to guess the word correctly.
