Perhaps, but for me, it's absolutely about usability. Whenever I see new Android phones or builds, the first thing I try out is how responsive the scrolling or zooming is. Often times, I'm waiting for Android to respond to my touch, other t

Although Java has its problems, I think the core of Android's issue is a bad utilization of computing resources. One can only hope that Google will eventually fix this problem. Palm's WebOS put much of its core logic in JavaScript, which

The GPU can offload most of the graphics intensive tasks from the CPU, utilizing the GPU instead of letting it sit idle. freeing the CPU to focus on GC tasks. In addition, most of the animation work done with Dalvik code can be moved into a

Actually, I wrote about battery life at the very end of the article. I already discussed battery life in a previous post. I certainly feel that battery life is one of the most important issues in mobile, hence, "efficiency" As for touch res

I think they meant to say real-world performance, not actual performance. GPU acceleration affects real-world HTML5 animation techniques, especially on mobile devices. It depends on what's being measured. iOS has GPU acceleration support in

I've often thought the same, and set out to build song writing software with ML principles. I ended up with iRhyme, an iPhone app that analyzed a huge corpus of existing song lyrics to make a good song writing oriented rhyming dictionary. T

The drawing parts were close, but mobile profiles can greatly be affected by other parts (in this case the original FPS counter was consuming tons of CPU and battery). The optimized versions do a first approximation of what the Flash engine

CSS 3D transforms are an emerging W3C spec. WebKit has the hooks for supporting CSS 3D, but a WebKit port like Chrome still needs to add an underlying scene graph engine ala Core Animation to get 3D rendering going. It's non-trivial, but po

From watching videos of JooJoo, UI latency and scrolling performance are quite terrible. It seems that rendering is done on the CPU, when it should've been on a GPU accelerated compositor or tiled surface manager. That would probably save s
