Symbian is not a new operating system: it has been extremely successful in the mobile market space for ages. However, it has been released to open source recently (and can in some regards be considered more open than Android).
This training session will cover the following topics:
• What is Symbian OS?
• How is it licensed?
• How to develop for Symbian.
To Tam Hanna, code alone is irrelevant - only through many cycles of painstaking UI design, marketing and find tuning can an excellent application be made. Thus he decided to become fluent with concepts like Extreme Programming and - to some extent - test-driven development. Tamoggemon's Palm OS applications have thus managed to gain quite some following in their target sectors, and have been praised by analysts for their ease of use - the same can be said of the products released for Symbian OS. Tam has always felt a strong urge to share his knowledge with others. Thus, he became active in the online publishing sector and has permanently expanded his portfolio so that it now includes a total of four news services that have thousands of readers a day. He frequently gets invited to speak at international events like the CeBit or the London Smartphone Roadshow, for example. Besides this, the Austrian magazine 'Der neue Kriminalbeamte' and leading IT security magazine 'hiking' both value his technical expertise and frequently assign him to new and interesting topics all over the computer security and network culture scenes. He furthermore covers a variety of developer-related content for various magazines of the S&S publishing house. When not working on company projects, Tam loves to spend his leisure time travelling, reading technology, marketing and other scientific books, photographing, swimming, cooking, listening to music, visiting art exhibitions – and, last but not least, sometimes taking a stab at computer gaming.
