Learning outcomes The objective of this course is to study native application development for mobile platforms, emphasizing specific details concerning the design, structure, and resources and languages used in that development. Another objective is to help students apply knowledge, acquired in other areas, in the engineering and implementation of those applications. Additionally, the course also strives to captivate the sensibility of the student to problems specif to this area, namely concerning the design and portability of mobile applications.

At the end of this course unit the student should be able to:
1. Autonomously project and implement applications for mobile devices;
2. Work with a team in the engineering and development of software or system directed to mobile devices;
3. Use integrated development environments or the command line interface to develop mobile applications;
4. More easily deal with details concerning the storage and communications in mobile devices;
5. Take advantage of mult
