Mobile Phone Programming Summer School

Here you can find the material and main information for the course. The course consists of 10 lectures. The idea is to provide the attendees with the knowledge of mobile devices and how to program on them. Therefore we have classical lectures with some experiments. On the first day we will give out some mobile devices which can be used by the students to try out the learned material and to build their own applications.

•  The course will be held in NJ14 4-117
