4. What is Tizen ?
A Cross-platform Operating System
written in HTML 5, C, C++
Open source Software Platform
Based on Linux Kernel and GNU C
Library
5. The name was created by combining the connectivity of “tie,” the
activity of “rise” and the meditative qualities of “Zen.”
Developed by the Linux Foundation, Tizen Association, Samsung, Intel
and others
6. Why Tizen?
When Android and Bada OS are already present, why Tizen?
User expects more on connectivity between devices
Different software platforms for various categories of products leads to less
connectivity between them
Resulting in incomplete continuation between CE products
Innovation tends to come to halt
7. Why does this happen?
Manufacturers
Design the software platform for a specific device
Do not share their proprietary platforms
Its because…
8. The answer to these problems: Tizen
Tizen is a cross-category platform
The same software can run on many categories of devices
Devices can be connected more easily
HTML 5 is the destination for the mobile industry
Tizen has the top score in html5test.com
9. IoT (Internet of Things) can be realized by an
initiative like Tizen
11. Tizen Association is formed to guide the industry role of Tizen
Members of the Tizen Association represent every major sector of the mobility
industry and every region of the world
12. The Tizen Association decides what needs to be done
The Technical Steering Group (TSG) governs the goals
The SDK allows the developers to use HTML 5 and related
web technologies

31. Vision of Tizen Association….
Tizen is different because it is a broad industry effort to create a new mobile
ecosystem
The objective of Tizen is to create an open and multi-platform ecosystem,
compatible with Firefox OS and all browsers
The standardization of the ecosystem HTML5 is made in the Core Mobile Web
Platform Community Group (Coremob)
HTML5 applications run on Tizen, Android, Firefox OS, Ubuntu Touch, Windows
Phone, and webOS without a browser.
32. In late January 2013, Tizen 2.0 scored highest at the time in an HTML5 test of
any browsers.
HTML5 on smartphones, tablets, computers, TV, in vehicles
Tizen on TV will impact console games from 2015

specialized build tools
More Open than Android, iOS, etc.,
40. Cons…
Still not so familiar
It’s a Second choice after Android
It seems as an imitation of Android
Many Popular applications are not available for Tizen OS
42. Tizen device adaptability offers exciting possibilities for cross-device synergy
