ENEA® ANDROID TRAINING PACKAGE

Since the announcement of the Android Mobile technology platform in November 2007 there has been a growing interest for this Linux based mobile platform. Many companies are turning to Android as a base for new mobile products. Android combines a lot of well known open source libraries with a complete application environment based around its Dalvik virtual machine. This means the solutions in Android range from the familiar to the new and innovative. Looking Into The Platform Enea's Android training has a focus on the platform and framework level of Android. The target audience is handset, MID and platform engineers who are migrating to Android. The platform training package is divided into modules to facilitate tailor-made trainings depending on the background of the audience.

Developers with strong competence in embedded software and device drivers

may need to learn more about Linux and building software for Android while an experienced Linux developer may need an introduction to Android specifics and knowledge of mobile platforms. Training Background The training package has a background in Enea's internal Android projects. We have found that while the application level and SDK is

well documented and easy to grasp for someone with a background in Java and software development the lower layers of the platform and native development present some hurdles even for experienced developers. Attending some or all of the training modules allows for a faster introduction to the Android platform and let the developers to quickly get up to speed.

Courses and Workshops Our courses are made up of different training modules described on the next page. The modules can be combined into courses suitable for different developers as suggested on this page. The courses are offered in two "flavors":

• Traditional form with classroom training where each track is taught as consecutive full day trainings including labs.

• Program form, where each module in the course is executed as shorter trainings at regular intervals. The labs are given as home assignments between each training occasion. The trainer will be available via phone and on-line support to help with the labs between sessions.

We also offer the modules as separate half day workshops consisting of 2-3 hrs of training and 1-2 hrs of lab work.
