The objective of the course is to discuss the recent advances in
mobile
multimedia application platforms. The course provides up-to-date
information on open standards and programming practices for multimedia
in embedded devices. The course consists of a set of introductory
lectures, student presentations, and an optional programming exercise
on Java or Symbian SDK for a mobile device.
The course has 3 introductory lectures, about 10 seminar presentation lectures (organized most likely in a 1-2 day workshop at the end of the semester), and programming exercise demo’s in the end. The topics of the programming exercises will be defined more precisely by the students, and they should present their ideas and discuss about them with the course teacher after choosing the theme. It is preferred to develop the application so that it can actually be demonstrated in the target device (e.g., on a mobile phone or a PDA).
Basic skills in Java or C/C++ programming, knowledge about graphics
and audio.

Series 60 MIDP SDK 2.1 for Symbian OS contains an emulator for the Series 60 Platform, Java(tm) class libraries, and documentation. The SDK should be used as the reference SDK for MIDP application development for Series 60 Developer Platform 2.0 devices, including the Nokia 6600, Nokia 6620 and Nokia 7610. The emulator supports MIDP 2.0, CLDC 1.0, the Nokia UI API, the Wireless Messaging API (JSR-120, v1.1), the Mobile Media API (JSR-135, v1.1), and the Java APIs for Bluetooth (JSR-82 v1.0).
The SDK works as a plug-in with Nokia Developer's Suite for J2ME(tm), and can also be used with Java IDEs, including: Borland JBuilder 9 Mobile Edition; Borland JBuilder X Mobile Edition; Sun ONE Studio 4 update 1, Mobile Edition; Sun ONE Studio 5, Mobile Edition; IBM WebSphere Studio Device Developer 5.6; and Sun J2ME(tm) Wireless Toolkit 2.0.

Series 60 SDK 2.1 for Symbian OS enables C++ application development for the Series 60 Developer Platform 2.0 devices, such as the Nokia 6620 and Nokia 7610, which are based the Series 60 2.1 software. New in Series 60 2.1 is support for the Presence Open API and Bluetooth notifier. The SDK includes all key functionality needed for application development (documentation, API reference, add-on tools, emulator, and target compiler) when used in conjunction with an IDE. This version supports Borland C++BuilderX, Metrowerks CodeWarrior Development Studio for Symbian OS v2.5, Microsoft Visual C++ .NET and Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0.
NOTE: Java Runtime Environment v 1.3.1 and ActivePerl 518 need to be installed before this SDK is installed.
