This document explores the development of micro-apps across different mobile platforms. It finds that Android apps are typically smaller in size than equivalent apps on BlackBerry, but Android apps also depend more on third-party libraries and the platform itself. This high platform dependency for Android apps can reduce development effort due to platform support but also increases maintenance effort and makes porting apps to other platforms more difficult. The document discusses how these findings for micro-apps may differ compared to desktop applications.

Native vs Cross-Platform Development. We are Cross-Platform App Development Company in India where you can hire Cross-Platform App developer and fulfill your requirements.
The world, as of 2022, contains nearly 14 billion mobile phones for which there are nearly 5 million Mobile Applications development available on Google Play Store and the Apple Appstore. Thus we are discuss factors of mobile app development, because these apps are either created as Native platform apps or as Hybrid apps that can work on both the major mobile platforms i.e., Android and iOS.
This discusses why there is such a great need for you and or your company to create a mobile app. A website is no longer enough to keep and build customer satisfaction in this mobile world. The use of mobile browsers is growing constantly, meaning that users are now need apps or mobile websites that support touch. This deck also takes a look at some of the different technologies there are for creating mobile apps

Studying the Integration Practices and the Evolution of Ad Libraries in the G...SAIL_QU
In-app advertisements have become a major revenue for app developers in the mobile app economy. Ad libraries play an integral part in this ecosystem as app
developers integrate these libraries into their apps to display ads. However, little is known about how app developers integrate these libraries with their apps and how these libraries have evolved over time.
In this thesis, we study the ad library integration practices and the evolution of such libraries. To understand the integration practices of ad libraries, we manually study apps and derive a set of rules to automatically identify four strategies for integrating
multiple ad libraries. We observe that integrating multiple ad libraries commonly occurs in apps with a large number of downloads and ones in categories with a high percentage of apps that display ads. We also observe that app developers prefer to manage their own integrations instead of using off the shelf features of ad libraries for integrating multiple ad libraries.
To study the evolution of ad libraries, we conduct a longitudinal study of the 8 most popular ad libraries. In particular, we look at their evolution in terms of size, the main drivers for releasing a new ad library version, and their architecture. We observe that ad libraries are continuously evolving with a median release interval of 34 days. Some ad libraries have grown exponentially in size (e.g., Facebook Audience Network ad library), while other libraries have worked to reduce their size. To study the main drivers for releasing an ad library version, we manually study the release notes of the eight studied ad libraries. We observe that ad library developers continuously update their ad libraries to support a wider range of Android versions (i.e., to ensure that more devices can use the libraries without errors). Finally, we derive a reference architecture for ad libraries and study how the studied ad libraries diverged from this architecture during our study period.
Our findings can assist ad library developers to understand the challenges for developing ad libraries and the desired features of these libraries.

Editor's Notes
Paper title
Introduce myself, my colleagues and my lab
[high level overview]
1. Since Sept 2010, added many more apps
1. How does the same app compare across two platforms
How does the same app compare across two different platforms?
1. Start by selecting platforms and apps to compare, then compare code base size
When we started our research, these platforms all had a ~25% market share
1. selected Android and BlackBerry because apps for these platforms are written in JAVA (easier to compare)
2. looked for functionally equivalent micro app pairs
Functionally equivalent means the each app (one for the Android and another for the BlackBerry) has nearly identical functionality
How does the same app compare across two different platforms?
1. next, dependency analysis
1. Divide code base into unique and third party
2. For each file, e.g., main
3. Look at how it depends on unique classes
4. And third party classes
5. We also look at how it depends on its environment, including the Java APIs
6. And the platform APIs
1. Platform - android apps depend on the android platform much more than blackberry apps depend on the blackberry platforms. What are blackberry apps depending on? Where is their additional functionality coming from?
2. APIs – android and blackberry apps depend on JAVA heavily
3. Third Party - here is where blackberry is really making up the difference
4. Unique - again, here is where blackberry is making up some difference
Android platform appears to provide more support, at least that it what developers are telling us
but, because blackberry apps depend heavily on third party libraries (that they don’t develop themselves) perhaps the development effort for blackberry apps isn’t as high as we thought it was
1. next, churn
