This paper analyzes security threats in Security Enhanced (SE) Android and proposes a new technique to efficiently protect application data including private information on rooted Android phones. On an unrooted device, application data can be accessed by the application itself according to the access control models. However, on a rooted device, a root-privileged shell can disable part or all of the access control model enforcement procedures. Therefore, a root-privileged shell can directly access sensitive data of other applications, and a malicious application can leak the data of other applications outside the device. To address this problem, the proposed technique allows only some specific processes to access to the data of other applications including private information by modifying the existing SEAndroid Linux Security Module (LSM) Hook function. Also, a new domain type of process is added to the target system to enforce stronger security rules. In addition, the proposed technique separates the directory type of a newly installed application and the directory type of previously installed applications. Experimental results show that the proposed technique can effectively protect the data of each application and incur performance overhead up to or less than 2 seconds.

Recently, with the increasing use of smart phones, security issues, such as safety and reliability of the use of the Android application has become a topic to provide services in various forms. An Android application is performed using several important files in the form of an apk file. On the other hand, they may be subject to unauthorized use, such as the loss of rights and privileges due to the insertion of malicious source code of these apk files. This paper examines the Android environment to study ways to define the threats related to the unauthorized use of the application source code, and based on the results of the analysis, to prevent unauthorized use of the application source code. In this paper, a system is provided using a third body to prevent and detect applications that have been counterfeited or forged illegally and installed on Android devices. The application provides services to existing systems that are configured with only the service server that provides users and applications general, This paper proposes the use of a trusted third party for user registration and to verify the integrity of the application, add an institution, and provide a safe application.

In this paper, we propose a new method to enhance an android security by exploiting a selective management of application permission. To that purpose, we analyze behavior of the current android security, via which we draw out possible vulnerabilities. After that, we develop a tool to implement the selective management of the application permission, witch has a function to give a permission selectively for the application when we install a new application. Via experiment we show validity of the developed tool in solving the drawn vulnerability in the current android security.

The widespread use of android application is required for candidates to use in general life. Candidates need an application that doesn't change the screen a lot for the convenience and need a system that has fewer overloads. In this paper. we have implemented a program that helps students to improve their study using a note of wrong answers. vocabulary game and health management with using balanced diet, alarm, messenger, information of university and stretching.

Large number of Android mobile application has been developed and deployed through the Android open market by increasing android-based smart work device users recently. But, it has been discovered security vulnerabilities on malicious applications that are developed and deployed through the open market or 3rd party market. There are issues to leak user's personal and financial information in mobile devices to external server without the user's knowledge in most of malicious application inserted Trojan Horse forms of malicious code. Therefore, in order to minimize the damage caused by malignant constantly increasing malicious application, it is required a proactive detection mechanism development. In this paper, we analyzed the existing techniques' Pros and Cons to detect a malicious application and proposed discrimination and detection result using malicious application discrimination mechanism based on Jaccard similarity after collecting events occur in real-time execution on android-mobile devices.

This paper addresses the design and implementation of an Android application for real-time precise motion control. To provide stable real-time performance, we implemented the application in two parts: Android service in the form of a daemon process, which periodically transfers a set of position commands for all motors through a real-time fieldbus, and Android UI application, which generates and delivers the set of position commands to the Android service. To support such a real-time motion control application, we use multi-core partitioning, which partitions the processor cores into a real-time partition to be used by the real-time motion control service and a non-real-time partition to be used by the Android application, and set up a shared buffer between them for communication. Our experiments show that we can obtain a motion control period of 2 ms with 99% task activation jitters less than ${\pm}55{\mu}s$ for a configuration where each of the four threads controls two motors in a group.

This thesis is the study about application development for management obesity and personal health matters systematically based on Android smart phone system. Growing obesity problem for students organized by the lack of a device or program to manage at home has been favored as a serious problem. Currently developed smart phones has come into wide use by portable features and many applications. And to support populations of these features smart phones will be available for obesity management in your home without any equipment using. Accordingly, this paper is the study about application development for management obesity for growing students at home based on the latest smart phone platform Android.

본 논문에서는 스마트케어 서비스를 위해, Android 운영체제를 기반으로 하는 Device에서 ADK를 이용해 혈압계를 제어하는 방법을 제안한다. 이 방법은 소프트웨어와 하드웨어를 결합한 kit인 ADK를 사용하여 Hardware를 잘 모르는 사람들도 Android에서 Hardware의 GPIO에 좀 더 쉽게 접근하고 제어할 수 있어 보다 다양한 기능을 구현할 수 있다. 또한 이 방법으로 얻은 혈압계 데이터를 Database에 저장하여 데이터통신망을 통해 전문의에게 Feedback을 받음으로써 굳이 병원을 방문하지 않더라도 개인의 건강을 보다 편리하게 관리할 수 있어 한 단계 수준 높은 진단을 받을 수 있다.

Android OpenGL ES Issue Report에서 제기된 Android Emulator에서의 OpenGL 연산속도 문제를 Matrix 연산이 많이 사용되는 OpenGL 3D 구현에서 확인하고 이를 개선할 수 있는 방법을 제시한다. Android Emulator에 포함된 OpenGL ES는 소프트웨어 방식의 OpenGL ES 1.5가 사용되고 있다. 이때 Floating Point가 개선되면 3D의 연산 속도를 높일 수 있을 것이다. 이를 위하여 본 논문에서는 Android Emulator를 수정하여 개선하고, 샘플코드를 통해 테스트 결과를 제시한다.
