In recent years seemingly everything has become digital. Some areas, like classical sports, have been slower to adapt to new technical development. Golf is an example of this. Usually when people play golf they bring their clubs, golf balls and a paper scorecard on to the golf course. The advantages of keeping score in a digital way areevident. EVRY One Halmstad has developed a scorecard printing system for official golf rounds called OnTag. The OnTag system is a standardized printing system in Sweden. OnTag Scorekort is an iPhone application developed by EVRY One Halmstad which communicates with the OnTag system. There were wishes of an application for Android phones and that is the reason behind this thesis project. The first part of the project was to develop a database to the new Android application which would form the fundament. The second part of the project consisted of developing a communication interface to communicate with the OnTag servers. The third and last part of the project consisted of graphical user interface development.The project is inspired by the existing iPhone application. It was important that each of these goals were met in a good way to be able to reachthe main goal of the project. To be able to reach the goals a functionality‐driven development method was used where the user experience was in focus. The project group was small and discussions between the group members drove the project forward. Software testswere conducted at several occasions during the project. The result for the project was an Android application which has been published on Google Play and Appland. The final tests for the application were monitored by EVRY One Halmstad. The tests were approved which is a strong indication of a uccessful project.s / De senaste åren har i princip det mesta digitaliserats.

OnTag Scorekort är en iPhone‐applikation som är utvecklad av EVRY One Halmstad som kommunicerar med OnTag‐systemet. Önskemål om en applikation även till Android fanns och därför föddes idén till detta examensarbetet. Första delen av projektet var att utveckla en databas till denna Androidapplikation som skulle ligga som fundament för den. Andra delen bestod av att utveckla ett kommunikationsgränssnitt för att kunna kommunicera med OnTag:s servrar. Tredje delen av projektet var att utveckla ett grafiskt användargränssnitt. Genom att dela upp utvecklingen av Android‐applikationen fick man mer kontroll och det var lättare att felsöka. Hela projektet ärinspirerat av hur iPhone‐applikationen fungerar. ett bra sätt för att projektetsåDessa mål var tvungna att nås på huvudmål skulle ns. För att nå målen användes en funktionalitetsdriven utvecklingsmetod där användarvänligheten låg i fokus.

Master of Science / Department of Computing and Information Sciences / Daniel Andresen / People are more inclined to use mobiles instead of other computing devices like desktops and laptops due to their portability and ease of use. A number of desktop applications have become available as mobile applications in response to the increasing market demand. Android is one of the largest and most popular open source platforms that offers developers complete access to framework APIs in order to develop innovative mobile applications The objective of this project was to develop an Android application for daily users of Android mobiles. This application advantageously allows users to search the internet on their phone, save preferred links, and prioritize outputs based on saved links. The application uses the Google search engine as its primary search engine and customizes links for the user.

As personal health care devices like blood pressure monitors, glucose monitors, thermometers are becoming more intelligent, with wireless communication abilities, there exists a huge potential for mobile applications that can aid users in their home health care. These mobile applications can talk wirelessly to the health devices via protocols like Bluetooth, Zigbee etc. and simplify daily tasks for users like logging daily readings, creating alerts, reminders, tracking supplies, messaging care-providers etc. This report will explore the design and architecture for the development of such a mobile application. A remote, integrated, web service can provide storage, web access, and analysis for the data, retrieved by the application, from personal health devices. The report will explore IEEE standards that define a standard format for information exchanged to/from these devices. It will also delve into security and privacy considerations in the system for patient health data. / text

Huvuduppgiften i detta examensarbete har varit att programmera en Android smart-telefon så att den kan kommunicera med en bio-sensor med syfte att skapa automatiska larm vid till exempel hjärtproblem. Hur lösningen har vuxit fram har dokumenterats tillsammans med resultatet av den informationssökning som utförts parallellt inom angränsande ämnesområden. Vid programmeringen har en Service använts för att upprätthålla en prioriterad kommunikationsprocess mellan bio-sensor och telefon. Programprototypen använder även en Widget – en mini applikation på skrivbordet - som är ett snyggt sätt att presentera mätdata. När denna produkt börjar säljas på marknaden kommer den vara klassificerad som en medicinteknisk produkt. Detta innebär att det finns ett speciellt regelverk för leverantören av produkten att följa. Applikationen är enkel att hantera för användarna men det innebär inte att den alltid är lämplig för alla. Hjärtsjuka är oftast inte i form humörmässigt så det är att föredra om patienterna själva kan fås att inse och uppskatta de fördelar som finns med den automatiska kontroll av individens status som applikationen erbjuder. / The main task during this degree project has been code design for an Android Smartphone making it able to communicate with a Bio Sensor to create an automatic alert if for example a heart problem arises. How this application has been developed has been documented together with the result of an information search that has been conducted in adjoining branches of science. The application program uses a Service to maintain high priority for the communication process between the bio-sensor and the phone. The application prototype also uses a Widget – a mini application on the Home Screen – which is a neat way to display data from the sensor. When this product is launched onto the market it will be classified as a medical device. This means that there is a special set of rules that the supplier of the product must follow. This application is easy to use but that does not mean that it always will suit everybody. Persons who suffer from heart disease mostly also suffer from low spirits. Therefore, it is desirable that the patient can be made to realize and to appreciate the advantages of automatic monitoring of the individual status that this application offers.

Esminis šio darbo siekis yra išanalizuoti „Android“ operacinės sistemos (OS) programų kūrimo įrankių galimybes. Remiantis darbo rezultatais, matome, kad ši OS uţima daugiausiai rinkos pagal pardavimus. Taip pat yra įţvelgiama, kad pasirinktas programavimo įrankių komplektas (Android SDK) nėra iki galo išdirbtas programų kūrimui, tačiau nelabai yra iš ko rinktis, kadangi alternatyvios programavimo aplinkos reikalauja jos įdiegimo. Reikia pridurti, kad testavimui yra būtina naudoti realius fizinius įrenginius. Taip pat norėtųsi paminėti, kad šiai OS buvo rastas tik vienas programinis įrankis (FuturEye), skirtas šilumos pernešimo uţdaviniams spręsti. / The main purpose of this work is to make an analysis of abilities of tools for development of Android operating system programs. In the view of the work results, we can conclude, that this OS has the biggest part of the market share by sales. Also we can see, that we are left with only one choice for development tools (Android SDK) of Android programs, because all other programming environments require that Android SDK must be installed. For a more accurate programming results, one should test applications on real devices. In addition, we should say, that only one programming tool (FuturEye) was found for heat transfer problems evaluation.

abstract: Android is currently the most widely used mobile operating system. The permission model in Android governs the resource access privileges of applications. The permission model however is amenable to various attacks, including re-delegation attacks, background snooping attacks and disclosure of private information. This thesis is aimed at understanding, analyzing and performing forensics on application behavior. This research sheds light on several security aspects, including the use of inter-process communications (IPC) to perform permission re-delegation attacks. Android permission system is more of app-driven rather than user controlled, which means it is the applications that specify their permission requirement and the only thing which the user can do is choose not to install a particular application based on the requirements. Given the all or nothing choice, users succumb to pressures and needs to accept permissions requested. This thesis proposes a couple of ways for providing the users finer grained control of application privileges. The same methods can be used to evade the Permission Re-delegation attack. This thesis also proposes and implements a novel methodology in Android that can be used to control the access privileges of an Android application, taking into consideration the context of the running application. This application-context based permission usage is further used to analyze a set of sample applications. We found the evidence of applications spoofing or divulging user sensitive information such as location information, contact information, phone id and numbers, in the background. Such activities can be used to track users for a variety of privacy-intrusive purposes. We have developed implementations that minimize several forms of privacy leaks that are routinely done by stock applications. / Dissertation/Thesis / Masters Thesis Computer Science 2014

Master of Science / Department of Computing and Information Sciences / Mitchell L. Neilsen / Every home has the challenge of matching its grocery to family member’s demands. How well the home maker manages this challenge has a major impact on the food wastage and money spent on buying those. Any typical family with 4 people will spend at least $1500 per month for the groceries and the same family waste around $1000 worth of food in a year. These families don’t know the overall environmental impact of food waste which is piling up in landfills. From the survey done by Environmental Protection Agency, this food waste accounts for 20% of landfill waste.  Healthy Home(HH) Android application helps the user to get the re-order point of the groceries based on the quantity remaining. The user will input the entire grocery list which he/she has purchased and the daily quantity consumed. The application will take this as the input and give the recommendation of what to cook and how many calories that give to your body. It can distinguish and let you know by what time the food should be consumed based on the Best by date or whether it is Perishable/Non-perishable. This application will recommend you the ROP (Reorder Point) and SS (Safety Stock) which any household has to carry based on the DDLT (Demand During the Lead Time). We are using the Supply Chain Industry standard formula to calculate the SS (Safety Stock) and ROP (Reorder Point). ROP = DDLT+ SS *SS = 2 Days’ worth of Food (Defaulting) Instead of going with the Industry standard formula. The user is provided with the database which consists of the standard grocery list with their calories information. The user is also provided with the standard cuisines (recipes) information in place which helps us in building the recommendation systems used to suggest recipes for users.

Studies shows that students today have problems learning. We have developed an application to combat these issues. We call it Course Quizard and it targets university students that want to find an supplemental way to study. Users can play course specific quizzes against each other containing questions created by other users or automatic generated questions from course material. A small group of students tested the application and they feel the idea is valuable but would rather recommend it to a friend than play it themselves. Course Quizard has potential with future development which would make the application an excellent study alternative. / Studier visar att dagens studenter har problem att lära sig. Vi har utvecklat en applikation för att motverka inlärningsproblemen. Applikationen kallar vi Course Quizard, en applikation som riktar sig till  universitetsstudenter som söker ytterligare sätt att studera. Användarna kan spela kursspecifika frågesporter mot varandra som innehåller frågor som skapats av andra användare eller automatiskt genererade från kursmaterialet. En liten grupp av studenter testade programmet och de anser att idén är värdefullt, men de skulle hellre rekommendera applikationen till en vän än att spela det själva. Med framtida utveckling har Course Quizard potential att bli ett utmärkt hjälpmedel för att lära sig kursmaterialet på ett ytterligare vis.
