스마트폰 시장의 급격한 성장으로 기업 업무들이 모바일 환경으로 이전되는 추세와 함께 다양한 모바일 운영체제들의 등장으로 개발 환경의 파편화가 발생하였고 이는 응용 프로그램의 개발 및 유지 보수를 저해하는 요소로 작용하였다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위한 모바일 환경의 크로스 플랫폼 기술로 하이브리드 앱이라는 방법론이 제시되었다. 하지만 하이브리드 앱이 가지고 있는 성능적 제약과 기능적 제약으로 시장에서의 주력 기술로 사용되지 못하고 있다. 이러한 단점들을 극복하기 위해 네이티브 환경의 장점을 활용할 수 있도록 하는 범용실행엔진, 자동변환 저작엔진 등의 시도들이 있다. 이 논문에서는 해당 문제를 또 다른 방법으로 접근한 개방형 모바일 클라우드 플랫폼을 소개한다. 모바일 클라우드 환경을 구성하여 모바일 사용자들에게 단말의 하드웨어나 운영체제와는 무관하게 다양한 모바일 환경을 제공할 수 있고 기존 모바일 환경에 비해 고성능의 컴퓨팅을 제공할 수 있게 하는 동작 메커니즘과 기술 특징을 설명한다.

Though lots of approaches to develop mobile apps are suggested up to now, developers have difficulties selecting a right one. This study compares native and cross-platform application development approaches, particularly focusing on the shift in preference from Java to Kotlin and the increasing use of Flutter. This research offers practical insights into factors influencing developers' choice of programming languages and frameworks in mobile application development by creating identical applications using Java, Kotlin, and Dart (Flutter). Furthermore, this study explores the best practices for development by examining the quality of code in 45 open-source GitHub repositories. The study evaluates LOC and code smells using semi-automated SonarQube assessments to determine the effects of selecting a specific language or framework on code maintainability and development efficiency. Preliminary findings show differences in the quality of the code produced by the two approaches, offering developers useful information on how to best optimize language and framework selection to reduce code smells and improve project maintainability.

Xamarin is a representative cross-platform development framework that allows developers to write mobile apps in C# for multiple mobile platforms, such as Android, iOS, or Windows Phone. Using Xamarin, mobile app developers can reuse existing C# code and share significant code across multiple platforms, reducing development time and maintenance costs. Meanwhile, malware authors can also use Xamarin to spread malicious apps on more platforms, minimizing the time and cost of malicious app creation. In order to cope with this problem, it is necessary to analyze and detect malware written with Xamarin. However, little studies have been conducted on static analysis methods of the apps written in Xamarin. In this paper, we examine the structure of Android apps written with Xamarin and propose a static analysis technique for the apps. We also demonstrate how to statically reverse-engineer apps that have been transformed using code obfuscation. Because the Android apps written with Xamarin consists of Java bytecode, C# based DLL libraries, and C/C++ based native libraries, we have studied static reverse engineering techniques for these different types of code.

According to the 2021 Mobile Augmented Reality Market Report by Korea Innovation Foundation, the augmented reality market has been growing recently due to the growth of the mobile augmented reality market along with the development of smartphones. In order to provide augmented reality services to mobile users, it is necessary to create native apps for each device. However, there are problems such as maintenance costs for multi-platform and low accessibility due to app download. Recently, the construction of augmented reality system in a web-based environment by using the WebXR Device API is in progress, but it is judged that the system using the WebXR Device API is still in the research stage. In this paper, a responsive multi-platform environment was built using the WebXR Device API, Three JS, and React, and a function to provide augmented reality service to mobile and web users was implemented. As a result of the experiment, it was confirmed that the interlocking of augmented reality was successfully implemented in a responsive web environment, and look forward to the augmented reality service operating on the web in the future.

Recently, because the portable devices became popular, it is easily to see that each person carries more than just one portable device and the use of the smartphone stretches as time goes by. After the smartphone has propagated rapidly, the total usage of the smartphone applications has also increased. But still, each application store has a different platform to develop and to apply an application. The application store is divided into two big markets, the Android and the Apple. So the developers have to develop their application by using these two different platforms. Developing into two different platforms almost makes a double development cost. And for the other platforms, the weakness is, which still have a small market breadth like Bada is not about the cost, but about drawing the proper developers for the given platform application development. The web application is rising up as the solution to solve these problems, reducing the cost and time in developing applications for every platform. For web applications don't need to make a vassal relationship with application markets platform. Which makes it possible for an application to operate properly in every portable devices and reduces the time and cost in developing. Therefore, all of the application markets could be united into one big market through a protocol which will connect each web applications market. But, still there is no standard for the web application store and no current web application store is possible to interlock with other web application stores. In this paper, we are trying to suggest a protocol by developing a prototype and prove that this protocol can supplement the current weakness.

Recently, due to the standard of a new browser developed by the Google and Mozilla "Service Worker", future users is expected to be able to make use of favorite Web sites offline. Google's is, Web sites have developed a standard of a new browser so as to always respond to user requests. Service Worker, websites that provide space capable of offline work to the user's browser to store various document information, to provide the necessary resources. Then, in order to greatly reduce the data exchange operations between the browser and the server, the speed of the Web page increases. Not only cooks as native app that can use the Web application offline, in that us to also further enhance the characteristics of an existing Web application that is running without installing destructive high technology. Service worker specifications, use experience of Web application is very can be improved, is an innovative technology indicates the version of the web evolve as the future of the platform. Service Worker is not included in HTML5 standard final, is currently being continued standardization. Future Service Worker technology I expect what kind of thing unfolds when applied to the Web browser.

In electronic textbooks (or e-Textbooks) the traditional paper-based textbooks are enriched with multimedia contents and new features such as interactive multimedia-based simulation, interactive quizzes, and content sharing. It has been envisioned that e-Textbooks will gradually replace the traditional paper-based textbooks in classrooms in the near future. HTML5 is an emerging and promising standard that enables web applications (or apps) to incorporate rich multimedia contents such as video clips, flash movies and simulation-based demonstration, as well as to provide cross-platform functionality which allows the apps to run on a diverse range of platforms. To support rich multimedia contents and cross-platform functionality, with respect to HTML5, this paper presents the new features, compares the current trend of mobile apps (e.g., native, web-based and hybrid apps) for e-Textbook development. In order to investigate the suitability of these three development approaches for e-Textbooks, we present a case study on our recent work in developing e-Textbooks using HTML5 and JavaScript, as well as analyses the challenges associated with HTML5 features (e.g, compatibility with web browsers) for developing e-Textbooks.
