Mobile Trends
The era of PC dominance with Windows as the single
platform will be replaced with a post-PC era where
Windows is one of a variety of environments IT
Mobile Device Diversity: Many form factors, screen
sizes, interaction styles, platforms, architectures
Innovative BYO knowledge workers will use 3 to 5
devices by 2016

The Rise of Enterprise Mobile Platforms
Enterprise mobile platforms are key
strategic solutions encompassing
mobile applications, integration,
management, and security
– Cloud-delivered
– Social-enabled
– Multichannel
– Device-aware
– Device-agnostic

13
Mobile Apps and Applications
Richer UI models
– Voice, Video & more
Microsoft, Google and Apple will battle for leadership
– “Modern” UI & “Apps” vs. “Applications”
– Contextual, connected, multi-device
Multichannel applications
– Store, Sync and Share
– Cross-Platform Applications
Development challenges
– New design skills
– Responsive Design

Mobile Applications
Hybrid approach allows developers to write
HTML5 code once and deploy it on multiple
platform.
Nevertheless, native apps won't disappear, and
will always offer the best user experiences and
most sophisticated features.
More than 50% of companies will look to the cloud for
their mobile app deployments.

18
Mobile Web
A design approach that optimises users’ viewing
experiences across a wide range of devices.
Pro:
●
it is your website, so costs are
minimised and service iteration
simplified
●
uses open standards (HTML5)
●
no gatekeepers to constrain
access
●
performance still good
●
clear winning strategy for ‘utility’
services
Con:
●
not persistent on device
●
some device features
unavailable
●
requires internet connection
●
not snappy enough for some
complex services (eg Spotify,
Facebook, Skype)
●
no ‘download and buy’ revenue
stream

19
Native Apps
Native apps are downloadable software
applications that run using the device’s operating
system code and APIs.
Pro:
●
revenue (download and buy)
●
persistent presence on device
●
can access all functions on a
device
●
snappier performance in
general
●
can be used offline, in some
cases
Con:
●
expensive to develop and
maintain
●
needs several different versions
●
can only be downloaded via
gatekeeper app stores
●
most apps are rarely
downloaded, and even then
hardly used

JavaScript
JavaScript support soon became standard in every
browser.
JavaScript libraries are on the rise.
JavaScript libraries like jQuery, Node.js, Knockout.js,
AngularJS, and Backbone.JS are becoming a part of
the mainstream web development.

25
HTML5
Gartner predicts that through 2014, improved
JavaScript performance will begin to push HTML5
and the browser as a mainstream enterprise
application development environment.
HTML 5 has continued to become a vital part of the
Web development.
HTML 5 and JavaScript are used together. As a web
developer, just one is not going to help you. You must
know and use both.

IaaS Impacts!
Local data centers will provide cloud services
IaaS is not just a normal hosting; it requires large
investment on a data center.
Different architecture and business model.
Fewer large cloud data center in ASEAN will
survive
Need to compete with big giants; Amazon,
Google, Oracle, etc.

54
Cloud Computing Impact
Software development will shift toward the cloud.
Software company may develop their applications
on public IaaS/Paas; Microsoft Azure, Google App
Engines, Heroku, Amzaon S3
Require new skills
Opportunity to sell aboard.

The Next Big Thing
The next generation of mobile seems to be like the
wearable devices
Samsung, Apple, Microsoft and other companies are
now working on wearable devices such as watches,
keys, glasses, and clothes.
Juniper Research expects more than 130 million
smart wearable devices will ship by 2018
Google Glass will sell 21 million units annually by
2018.

Software Development
Software developers need to do is learn one more
API for a device.
It seems like Android and Java will be big players in
this field.
Apple iOS and Microsoft Windows Phone are way
behind in this field.
Wearable app and Android will be the trend to watch
in 2014.
