Application Development

Access Linux Platform Application development
The Access Linux Platform presents standard APIs for most common operations (as defined by the POSIX and LSB standards). Since neither POSIX nor LSB address areas such as telephony, device customization, messaging, etc., there are a number of additional frameworks and APIs defined by Access for these areas.

Applications for ALP can be developed as Linux-native code in C or C++, as legacy Palm OS applications (which run in the Garnet VM emulation environment), or in Java. Additional execution environments can be supported via the development of a "launchpad" utilized by the Application Manager (part of the Hiker framework).

The ALP SDK uses an Eclipse-based IDE, with additional plug-ins, as did its predecessor Palm OS development environment. The compilers used are EABI-enabled ARM versions of the standard gcc tool chain.

Electronic business Data transmission and application development
All sensitive information being transmitted should be encrypted. Businesses can opt to refuse clients who can't accept this level of encryption. Confidential and sensitive information should also never be sent through . If it must be, then it should also be encrypted.

Transferring and displaying secure information should be kept to a minimum. This can be done by never displaying a full credit card number for example. Only a few of the numbers may be shown, and changes to this information can be done without displaying the full number. It should also be impossible to retrieve this information online.

Source code should also be kept in a secure location. It should not be visible to the public.

Applications and changes should be tested before they are placed online for reliability and compatibility.

Binary Runtime Environment for Wireless - Brew application development
For testing applications during the development process, the SDK includes a Brew emulator, or starting with Brew version and above, the Brew Simulator

The Brew emulator, named Brew Simulator, does not emulate handset hardware. Instead, the Brew application is compiled to native code and linked with a compatible Brew runtime library. Because of this, applications cannot be tested for platform bugs related to memory alignment and various firmware related glitches without a Brew handset operating in test mode.

For testing purposes, Brew applications can be transferred using a Universal Serial Bus (USB) or serial cable to any Brew-compatible handset using Brew AppLoader from Qualcomm

Brew applications may be unloaded from a consumer handset to save handset memory space

On May 28, 2008, Qualcomm and Adobe announced a partnership to integrate Adobe Flash Lite as a supported user interface on Brew.

Conceptual model - Joint Application Development
The Dynamic Systems Development Method (DSDM) uses a specific process called Joint Application Design (JAD) to conceptually model a systems life cycle

Software development process - Rapid application development
Rapid application development R.A.D is a software development methodology that uses minimal planning in favor of rapid prototyping

Software development process - Rapid application development
In rapid application development, structured techniques and prototyping are especially used to define users' requirements and to design the final system

Software development methodology - Rapid application development
Rapid application development (RAD) is a software development methodology, which involves iterative development and the construction of prototypes. Rapid application development is a term originally used to describe a software development process introduced by James Martin in 1991.

Key objective is for fast development and delivery of a high quality system at a relatively low investment cost.

Attempts to reduce inherent project risk by breaking a project into smaller segments and providing more ease-of-change during the development process.

Aims to produce high quality systems quickly, primarily via iterative Prototyping (at any stage of development), active user involvement, and computerized development tools. These tools may include Graphical User Interface (GUI) builders, Computer Aided Software Engineering (CASE) tools, Database Management Systems (DBMS), fourth-generation programming languages, code generators, and object-oriented techniques.

Key emphasis is on fulfilling the business need, while technological or engineering excellence is of lesser importance.

Project control involves prioritizing development and defining delivery deadlines or “timeboxes”. If the project starts to slip, emphasis is on reducing requirements to fit the timebox, not in increasing the deadline.

Generally includes joint application design (JAD), where users are intensely involved in system design, via consensus building in either structured workshops, or electronically facilitated interaction.

Iteratively produces production software, as opposed to a throwaway prototype.

Produces documentation necessary to facilitate future development and maintenance.

James Martin (author) - Rapid Application Development (RAD)
Rapid application development is a term originally used to describe a software development process introduced by James Martin in Martin’s methodology involves iterative development and the construction of prototypes. More recently, the term and its acronym have come to be used in a broader, generic sense that encompasses a variety of techniques aimed at speeding application development, such as the use of web application frameworks and other types of software frameworks.

James Martin (author) - Rapid Application Development (RAD)
RAD approaches may entail compromises in functionality and performance in exchange for enabling faster development and facilitating application maintenance.

Rapid application development
Rapid application development (RAD) is a software development methodology that uses minimal planning in favor of rapid prototyping. The "planning" of software developed using RAD is interleaved with writing the software itself. The lack of extensive pre-planning generally allows software to be written much faster, and makes it easier to change requirements.

Rapid application development - History
Rapid Application Development (RAD) is a term originally used for describing a software development process first developed and successfully deployed during the mid-1970s by the New York Telephone Co's Systems Development Center under the direction of Dan Gielan. Following a series of remarkably successful implementations of this process, Gielan lectured extensively in various forums on the methodology, practice, and benefits of this process.

RAD involves iterative development and the construction of prototypes. In 1990, in his book RAD, Rapid Application Development, James Martin documented his interpretation of the methodology. More recently, the term and its acronym have come to be used in a broader, general sense that encompasses a variety of methods aimed at speeding application development, such as the use of software frameworks of varied types, such as web application frameworks.

Rapid application development is a response to processes developed in the 1970s and 1980s, such as the Structured Systems Analysis and Design Method and other Waterfall models

Starting with the ideas of Brian Gallagher, Alex Balchin, Barry Boehm and Scott Shultz, James Martin developed the rapid application development approach during the 1980s at IBM and finally formalized it by publishing a book in 1991, Rapid Application Development.

Rapid application development - Four phases of RAD
Requirements Planning phase – combines elements of the system planning and systems analysis phases of the Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC). Users, managers, and IT staff members discuss and agree on business needs, project scope, constraints, and system requirements. It ends when the team agrees on the key issues and obtains management authorization to continue.

User design phase – during this phase, users interact with systems analysts and develop models and prototypes that represent all system processes, inputs, and outputs. The RAD groups or subgroups typically use a combination of Joint Application Development (JAD) techniques and CASE tools to translate user needs into working models. User Design is a continuous interactive process that allows users to understand, modify, and eventually approve a working model of the system that meets their needs.

Construction phase – focuses on program and application development task similar to the SDLC. In RAD, however, users continue to participate and can still suggest changes or improvements as actual screens or reports are developed. Its tasks are programming and application development, coding, unit-integration and system testing.

Cutover phase – resembles the final tasks in the SDLC implementation phase, including data conversion, testing, changeover to the new system, and user training. Compared with traditional methods, the entire process is compressed. As a result, the new system is built, delivered, and placed in operation much sooner.

Rapid application development - Relative effectiveness
The shift from traditional session-based client/server development to open sessionless and collaborative development like Web 2.0 has increased the need for faster iterations through the phases of the software development process. This, coupled with the growing use of open source frameworks and products in core commercial development, has, for many developers, rekindled interest in finding a silver bullet RAD methodology.

Rapid Application Development (RAD) can be considered as a type of Agile technique or vice-a-versa. Some may, however, choose to separate these two based on the fact that RAD focuses on developing what is interesting instead of what is needed, as in conventional Agile. But it can be argued that end users are eventually going to need what interests them, thus making it hard to differentiate between the two methodologies.

Although most RAD methodologies foster software re-use, small team structure and distributed system development, most RAD practitioners recognize that, ultimately, no one “rapid” methodology can provide an order of magnitude improvement over any other development methodology.

All types of RAD have the potential for providing a good framework for faster product development with improved software quality, but successful implementation and benefits often hinge on project type, schedule, software release cycle and corporate culture

This table contains a high-level summary of some of approaches that can be thought to have their roots in RAD:

Agile Minimizes feature creep by developing in short intervals resulting in miniature software projects and releasing the product in mini-increments. Short iteration may add too little functionality, leading to significant delays in final iterations

Extreme Lowers the cost of changes through quick spirals of new requirements. Most design activity occurs incrementally and on the fly. Programmers must work in pairs, which is difficult for some people. No up-front “detailed design” occurs, which can result in more redesign effort in the long term. The business champion attached to the project full-time can potentially become a single point of failure for the project and a major source of stress for a team.

Joint application Captures the voice of the customer by involving them in the design and development of the application through a series of collaborative workshops called JAD sessions. The client may create an unrealistic product vision and request extensive gold-plating, leading a team to over- or underdevelop functionality.

Lean Creates minimalist solutions (i.e., needs determine technology) and delivers less functionality earlier; per the policy that 80% today is better than 100% tomorrow. Product may lose its competitive edge because of insufficient core functionality and may exhibit poor overall quality.

RAD Promotes strong collaborative atmosphere and dynamic gathering of requirements. Business owner actively participates in prototyping, writing test cases and performing unit testing. Dependence on strong cohesive teams and individual commitment to the project. Decision-making relies on the feature functionality team and a communal decision-making process with lesser degree of centralized project management and engineering authority.

Scrum Agile framework

Rapid application development - Criticism
Since rapid application development is an iterative and incremental process, it can lead to a succession of prototypes that never culminate in a satisfactory production application. Such failures may be avoided if the application development tools are robust, flexible, and put to proper use. This is addressed in methods such as the 2080 Development method or other post-agile variants.

Furthermore, there is a phenomenon behind a failed succession of unsatisfactory prototypes: End-users intuitively and primarily look to the Graphical User Interface (GUI) as a first measure of software qualities. The faster they "see" something working, the more "rapid" they perceive the development cycle to be. This is because the GUI has a strong natural directly viewable presence, while other problem domain code must be deduced or inferred, going largely unnoticed.

As programmers are generally software end-users first and programmers later, this natural gravitation towards "seeing" is engrained from the beginning (e.g

Ultimately, the triad of players (e.g

First, there is the lack of rapid application development tools that emphasize the appropriate problem domain

Rapid application development - Practical implications
When organizations adopt rapid development methodologies, care must be taken to avoid role and responsibility confusion and communication breakdown within a development team, and between team and client

Systems design - Rapid application development (RAD)
Rapid application development (RAD) is a methodology in which a systems designer produces prototypes for an end-user. The end-user reviews the prototype, and offers feedback on its suitability. This process is repeated until the end-user is satisfied with the final system.

ICL VME - Application development tools
* third-generation programming languages

* 4GL|fourth-generation QuickBuild toolset.

The toolset on VME is unusually homogeneous, with most customers using the same core set of languages and tools. As a result, the tools are also very well integrated. Third-party tools have made relatively little impression.

For many years the large majority of VME users wrote applications in COBOL, usually making use of the IDMS database and the Transaction Processing Management System|TPMS transaction processing monitor

The compilers developed within ICL share a common architecture, and in some cases share components such as code-generators. Many of the compilers used a module named ALICE and produced an early form of precompiled code (P-Code) termed ROSE, making compiled Object Module Format (OMF) libraries loadable on any machine in the range. .

Mobile application development - Platform development environment
The following table summarizes the elements in each of the development environments.

Mobile application development - Platform development environment
Criteria for selecting a development platform usually contains the target mobile platforms, existing infrastructure and development skills. When targeting more than one platform with cross-platform development it is also important to consider the impact of the tool on the user experience. Performance is another important criteria, as research on Mobile Applications indicates a strong correlation between application performance and user satisfaction.

Mobile application development - Mobile application testing
Mobile Applications are first tested within the development environment using emulators and later subjected to field testing. Emulators provide an inexpensive way to test applications on mobile phones to which developers may not have physical access. The following are examples of tools used for testing application across the most popular mobile Operating Systems.

* Google Android Emulator

It is Android (Operating System)|Android Emulator which is patched to run on a Windows PC as a standalone app without having to download and install the complete and complex Android SDK. It can be installed and Android compatible apps can be tested on it.

* Official Android SDK Emulator

It includes a mobile device emulator which mimics all of the hardware and software features of a typical mobile device (without the calls).

MobiOne Developer is a mobile Web Integrated development environment|IDE for Windows that helps developers to code, test, debug, package and deploy mobile Web applications to devices such as iPhone, BlackBerry, Android (Operating System)|Android, and the Palm Pre.

It is a web browser-based simulator for quickly testing iPhone web applications. This tool has been tested and works using Internet Explorer 7, Firefox 2 and Safari 3.

It gives a pixel-accurate web browsing environment and it is powered by Safari (web browser)|Safari. It can be used while developing web sites for the iPhone. It is not an iPhone simulator but instead is designed for web developers who want to create 320 by 480 (or 480 by 320) websites for use with iPhone.iPhoney will only run on Mac OS X or later.

* BlackBerry Simulator

There are a variety of official BlackBerry simulators available to emulate the functionality of actual BlackBerry products and test how the BlackBerry device software, screen, keyboard and trackwheel will work with application.

Mobile application development - Tools
* AppgyverToolbelt: Tooling to develop and iterate apps for PhoneGap across the two major smartphone platforms – Android and iOS – with no requirement for Xcode.

* Wulven Game Studios of Hanoi, Vietnam

Kynetx - Application development
Developers write applications in the Kinetic Rule Language (KRL), a rule-based language for defining contextual interactions with web pages a user visits. Currently, such development can be done via the interface of the Kynetx AppBuilder.

Kynetx, Inc. has a strategic partnership with Acxiom to support developers building applications helping businesses make informed marketing and business decisions using Acxiom consumer data.

Other data sources include GData, Amazon's Product Advertising and OData API access.

Social Web - Mobile application development
Most of the modern mobile applications, and indeed even browser applications, come from released Software Development Kits to developers. The developers create their applications and share them with users via app markets. Users can comment on their experiences with the applications, allowing all users to view the comments of others, and thus have a greater understanding of what is to be expected from the application. Typically there is also a rating a system in addition to comments.

Social Web - Mobile application development
Mobile social Web applications are built using various APIs. These APIs allow for the interaction and interconnection of data on one social database, be it Facebook, Twitter, or Google Account, thus creating a literal web of data connections. These applications then add to the user experience specific to the application itself. Examples include TweetDeck and Blogger (service)

Cappuccino (application development framework)
'Cappuccino' is an open source application development framework for developing web applications that look and feel like desktop applications on Mac OS X. Cappuccino was developed by University of Southern California graduates Francisco Tolmasky, Tom Robinson and Ross Boucher, who are also the founders of 280 North, Inc. It is primarily targeted towards web applications developers.

Cappuccino (application development framework)
Cappuccino consists of two distinct components: a programming language called Objective-J and an object-oriented library which is the Objective-J port of several of the Cocoa (API)|Cocoa frameworks, namely Foundation Kit, Application Kit, CoreGraphics, and CoreAnimation.

Cappuccino (application development framework) - Objective-J
Objective-J adds traditional inheritance and Smalltalk/Objective-C message calls to JavaScript

Cappuccino (application development framework) - Features and advantages
Even though the Cappuccino framework uses standard web technologies for web page rendering, such as JavaScript, the browser Document Object Model, and Cascading Style Sheets, it is not a classical JavaScript widget library such as Ext (JavaScript library)|ExtJs, jQuery or Prototype JavaScript Framework|Prototype

Cappuccino (application development framework) - Compatibility
Cappuccino is compatible with many of the latest browsers, including: Internet Explorer 7+, Firefox 2+, Safari 3+, Opera 9+, and Google Chrome.

Cappuccino (application development framework) - Differences from other frameworks
Cappuccino differs from other frameworks as it provides a complete abstraction from the DOM (Document Object Model), whereas other frameworks and libraries rely on the user understanding the DOM, and traditional web technologies. Cappuccino doesn't require previous knowledge about web technologies. Cappuccino implements the latest HTML5 features, abstracted through a Cocoa-like API. Views are manipulated using an API that doesn't require CSS or DOM manipulation.

Cappuccino (application development framework) - Applications
The first widely known web application written in Objective-J/Cappuccino was 280 Slides, an online presentation preparation system. 280 Slides features the ability to import existing documents, an autosave recovery, is able to save documents as Powerpoint|Microsoft PowerPoint, PDF, and OpenDocument formats, and has a wide range of themes.

Cappuccino (application development framework) - Applications
Since then, numerous other applications have been built on the Cappuccino framework. Notable examples include Mockingbird, a collaborative online wireframing tool, PicsEngine, a personal photo library on the web, GitHub issues, a front-end to GitHub's issues tracker, Spot Specific Apps a la Carte, an online Mobile App authoring tool, Archipel, a XMPP orchestrator to manage virtualization, and Akshell, a cloud-based JavaScript development platform.

Adobe Integrated Runtime - Application development
Adobe AIR supports Flash applications by running them within a contained Flash Player instance, and HTML/JavaScript/Ajax (programming)|Ajax web applications by running them within the included WebKit Web browser engine|rendering engine. Multiple instances of the browser can be started within a single AIR application, but JavaScript content executes with some security limitations.

Adobe has provided a free SDK in order to build AIR applications, known as the AIR SDK. The AIR SDK allows developers to use any text editor such as Notepad++ or FlashDevelop (an IDE) to edit ActionScript source code (.as files), and then build a corresponding AIR application or AIR installer (.air file) from the same.

Adobe provides for AIR HTML/JavaScript development with Adobe Dreamweaver CS5, although any other HTML editor or text editor can be used.

Spring Framework - Convention-over-configuration rapid application development
Spring Roo is Spring's Convention over configuration|convention-over-configuration solution for rapidly building applications in Java (programming language)|Java. It currently supports Spring Framework, Spring Security and Spring Web Flow, with remaining Spring projects scheduled to be added in due course. Roo differs from other rapid application development frameworks by focusing on:

* Java platform productivity (as opposed to other languages)
Spring Framework - Convention-over-configuration rapid application development * Java platform productivity (as opposed to other languages)

* Runtime avoidance (with associated deployment advantages)
Spring Framework - Convention-over-configuration rapid application development * Runtime avoidance (with associated deployment advantages)

Spring Framework - Convention-over-configuration rapid application development
* Lock-in avoidance (Roo can be removed within a few minutes from any application)

Palm OS - Application development
Palm OS Garnet applications are primarily coded in C (programming language)|C/C++

OnBoardC is a C compiler, assembler, linker and programming editor that runs on the Palm itself.

Palm OS Cobalt applications are also coded in a variation of gcc, but the Cobalt compilers have fewer limitations.

There are development tools available for Palm programming that do not require low-level programming in C/C++, such as PocketC/PocketC Architect, Compact Application Solution Language|CASL, AppForge|AppForge Crossfire (which uses Visual Basic, Visual Basic.NET, or C#), Handheld Basic, Pendragon Forms, [ Satellite Forms] and NSBasic/Palm (Visual Basic like languages)

Three environments allow programming in Pascal (programming language)|Pascal for Palm OS

As Palm has no connection drivers that enable the transfer of data with a server DBMS (Oracle, mySQL, MS SQL Server), the programmer can use Middleware software that enables this connectivity.

A roughly R4RS-compatible implementation of Scheme (programming language)|Scheme, LispMe, provides the Palm platform with a GPL-licensed onboard Lisp (programming language)|Lisp REPL with some Palm OS-specific adaptations, but although it is functionally a compiler it does not produce code that operates outside the development environment, so its use is restricted to prototyping.

A free development tool, LaFac, works directly on the Palm device, using the Memo Pad for source code editing, and provides support for a limited subset of C, Pascal, and Basic.

WebObjects - Rules-Based Rapid Application Development (RBRAD)
WebObjects features a set of rapid development technologies that can automatically create a Web application without the need to write any Java (programming language)|Java code. Given a model file for a database, WebObjects will create an interface supporting nine common database tasks, including querying, editing and listing. Such applications are useful for prototyping or administering a database, perhaps to check Relational model|relationships or to seed the database with data.

The user interface is generated dynamically, on-the-fly at runtime using a rules-based system—no code is generated. Consequently, one can modify an application's configuration at Run time (program lifecycle phase)|runtime (using an assistant program) without recompiling or relaunching the application.

Developers can utilize one of three different technologies, depending upon the type of interface they wish to employ:

*'Direct To Java Client' allows developers to rapidly create a client desktop application using the Swing (Java)|Java Swing toolkit. An advantage of Java Client applications is that they can take advantage of the processing power of the client computer to perform operations such as sorting a list of items received from the server.

System designer - Rapid application development (RAD)
Rapid application development (RAD) is a methodology in which a systems designer produces prototypes for an end-user. The end-user reviews the prototype, and offers feedback on its suitability. This process is repeated until the end-user is satisfied with the final system.

Software development life cycle - Rapid application development
Rapid application development R.A.D is a software development methodology that uses minimal planning in favor of rapid prototyping

NS Basic - Mobile Application Development
The company also undertakes custom development for companies who need applications for mobile devices, such as iPhone, Android, BlackBerry, Windows Mobile, and Palm OS. Applications can be developed for just one platform or for multiple platforms.

Oracle Application Development Framework
In computing, 'Oracle Corporation|Oracle Application Development Framework', usually called 'Oracle ADF', provides a commercial Java programming language|Java software framework|framework for building enterprise applications. It provides visual and declarative approaches to Java EE development. It supports rapid application development based on ready-to-use Design pattern (computer science)|design patterns, metadata-driven and visual tools.

Oracle Application Development Framework - Mobile application development
Oracle ADF Mobile includes a controller layer based on the ADF Taskflow concepts, as well as support for the ADF binding solution for easy binding of UI to services. Oracle ADF Mobile support interaction with device features such as GPS, contacts, SMS and more.

Oracle Application Development Framework - History
Oracle Corporation has marketed parts of Oracle ADF since 1999 — specifically ADF Business Components — then known as JBO and later as BC4J (Business Components for Java).

The ADF architecture with the generic model/binding layer was introduced with JDeveloper

In June 2006 Oracle Corporation donated the ADF Faces component library to MyFaces Trinidad|Apache Trinidad. (ADF Faces, Oracle's JavaServer Faces|JSF implementation, includes over 100 components.)

In September 2012 Oracle introduced a free version of the core Oracle ADF technologies under the name Oracle ADF Essentials. For more information, see

Oracle Application Development Framework - Licensing
The Oracle Application Server licence includes a component for a license fee for Oracle ADF. This means that all users who have purchased an Oracle Application Server licence may use Oracle ADF for free. Users who want to deploy ADF to a third-party application-server can purchase an ADF runtime license at their local Oracle sales office. Users can develop and test Oracle ADF applications free of charge declaratively within Oracle JDeveloper.

Oracle Corporation purchased WebLogic in June 2008, and thus no longer regards it as a third-party application-server, so ADF is included in every WebLogic license.
