CHAPTER 1
Background of the Study
The research is all about the operating system
(OS) of mobile devices that is widely used by
the students of Liceo de Cagayan University.
OS are the main software that hosts all other
programs in your cellphones. To help you
understand OS more, the following are
examples of operating systems (OS) of mobile
devices. “iOS” for iPhones, “Windows Phone” for some latest Nokia and Sony Ericson
models, “Android” for latest Samsung,
Alcatel, Cloudfone and etc., “Blackberry OS” for Blackberry mobiles and many others.
Objectives of the Study
This study aims to compare mobile
operating systems currently in-used by
the public, particularly by the students
of Liceo de Cagayan University; and to
be able for us to find out the most
widely used mobile operating system.
More specifically it aims to know the OS
of choice of the students excluding
money constraints.
Significance of the Study
This study will benefit the researchers,
the students and the readers of the
output of this research. This will
enlighten the minds of the readers to
the latest trends of not only mobile
devices but also the latest trends in
mobile devices’ operating systems. This
can be their guide to buying the best,
the most stable and the most widely used operating systems of the latest
mobile phones.
Scope and Delimitations
This study will only cover mobile operating
system. The mobile’s brand, model, and or
manufacturer are not included in the study,
but they are being used in the study as a
reference, in order for the researchers to
identify the mobile’s operating system of the
one being surveyed, if ever he/she is unsure,
or no knowledge at all of his/her mobile’s OS.
The research also focuses on cellular phones.
Other mobile devices such as PDAs (Personal
Digital Assistants), Tablets, Mobile Gaming
Devices and the like which do not have the
capacity to text, and or call are excluded.
CHAPTER 2
Definition of Terms
Mobile Phone- A mobile phone (also known as a
cellular phone, cell phone, and a hand phone) is a
device that can make and receive telephone calls
over a radio link while moving around a wide
geographic area
Mobile OS (Operating System)- A mobile operating
system, also called a mobile OS, is an operating
system that is specifically designed to run on mobile
devices such as mobile phones, smartphones,
PDAs, tablet computers and other handheld
devices.
OS (Operating System)- An operating system (OS) is
a collection of software that manages hardware
resources and provides common services for
programs
Definition of Terms
Android OS- The Android mobile operating system
is Google's open and free software stack that
includes an operating system, middleware and also
key applications for use on mobile devices,
including smartphones.
Blackberry OS- The BlackBerry OS is a proprietary
mobile operating system developed by Research
In Motion for use on the company’s popular
BlackBerry handheld devices
Bada OS- Bada is a proprietary Samsung mobile OS
that was first launched in 2010. The Samsung Wave
was the first smartphone to use this mobile OS.
Definition of Terms
iOS (iPhone Operating System)- iOS or iPhone
Operating System is the operating system
supported by Apple’s own manufactured devices
such as iPhone, iPad, iPad 2 and iPod Touch and is
not open for third party licensing.
Symbian OS- Symbian is a mobile operating system
(OS) targeted at mobile phones that offers a high-
level of integration with communication and
personal information management (PIM)
functionality. It is the mobile OS of the Nokia
manufactured phones before it shift to Windows
Mobile OS.
Definition of Terms
Windows Mobile OS- Windows Mobile is
Microsoft's mobile operating system used in
smartphones and mobile devices with or
without touchscreens
Hardware (Mobile)- Hardware is the
machine, wiring, and other physical
components of a computer or other
electronic system.
Graphical User Interface (GUI)- The
available interface of your phone. It is
consist of icons, color of icons and is the
way how graphics look in your cellphone.
CHAPTER 3
This study uses the methods of non-
probability sampling. The Quota
Sampling. Since the population of the
School (Liceo de Cagayan University)
is big and to minimize the expenses,
the researchers will set quota to be
reached as a sample size to be
surveyed. The base characteristic of
getting the sample quota will be the
gender such as male and female.
Methodology
Methodology
Presentation of Data- In presenting data,
researchers will use the tabular presentation using
either percentage or frequency table or using cross
tabulation or both. To present the data gathered
graphically, the researchers will use the bar chart.
Sample Size Determination (n)- To determine the
Sample size “n”, the researchers will be using the
quota sampling method. This means, the
researchers will just set a quota to be met as a
sample size. In this research, the researchers set 100
as sample size with 50% is set to be female
respondents and the other 50% will be male
respondents.
Methodology
Standard Deviation (s) Determination
s2 = ((nΣXi2 – (ΣXi) 2) ÷ (n (n-1))
s = √s2
Where n = the sample size and s is the standard
deviation.
Sample Mean Determination
Sample mean = (1/n) (ΣXi)
Where n = the sample size.
Statistical Treatment
Hypothesis Testing- The researchers wish to know
the operating system of choice of the students of
Liceo de Cagayan University. With the sample size
of 100, we found out that 45% of male and female
students wanted to have an Android OS. Is there a
reason to believe that the number of students who
want an Android OS is not 50, at α=0.05?
Given: n=100; sample mean=45; α=0.05; μ0 =50
Statistical Treatment
Hypothesis. H0: μ=50 and H1: μ≠50
Significance level. α=0.05
Test Statistic. Since this is a test concerning population mean where σ is unknown and the sample size is greater than or equal to 30, we apply case 2. Hence, the appropriate test statistic is
z= (sample mean- μ0) ÷ (s ÷ √n)
Critical Regions. Since this is a non-directional test, we apply a two-tailed test whose critical regions, as provided in case 2.
z <- zα/2 or z >z α/2
z <- z0.025 or z >z0.025
Thus, we reject H0 if z <-1.96 or z>1.96, otherwise, we fail to reject H0.
Statistical Treatment
Computation. The actual value of test statistic is:
z= (45-50) ÷ (5.43 ÷ (√100))
z= (-5) ÷ (5.43 ÷ 10) z= (-5) ÷ (0.543)
z= -9.21
Statistical Decision. Since z = -9.21 is in the critical
region, that is -9.21 < -1.96, we reject the null
hypothesis, H0.
Conclusion. The test result provides sufficient
evidence that the students who want an Android
OS are not 50.

CHAPTER 5
Conclusion
The over-all satisfaction of users with grade
rating interval of 6 to 10 for their mobile OS
in this study says 100% for Blackberry OS;
90% for iOS; 87.5% for Symbian; 88.9% for
Windows Phone; 86.1% for Android; and the
lowest grade rating for mobile OS comes
from others with grade rating of 75.8% and
is compose of operating systems which are
not famous and less known.
Conclusion
So who’s the best OS? On some level, it’s
too crude a question to take very seriously.
There are just too many ways to define “the
best,” and neither platform leads in every
area. But here’s the closest thing to an
objective answer we can manage.
“Android is the best if you’re talking about
market share; iOS if you mean financial
success. So far, this is a strikingly different
market than the PC business back in the
1990s, when market share translated
directly into financial success.”
Conclusion
You, of course, are entitled to
come to a different conclusion
because the best OS for you
depends on your needs and
tastes.
