An Innovative Tool to Benchmark Smartphone Operating Systems

Overview

Jakajima, a knowledge and information provider for the telecom, ICT, and consumer-electronics trade chain, noticed that no real benchmark has been developed for Smartphone Operating Systems, while the importance of the smartphone and its' OS is growing rapidly. Together with Eindhoven University of Technology, Jakajima has developed a benchmark for these Operating systems. With this benchmark, Jakajima and Eindhoven University of Technology offer the market (OS developers, application developers, hardware suppliers, operators etc.) new innovative tools to compare their mobile products and/or applications in an independent way. The benchmark is an ideal tool in any phase of a product; during concept, development and deployment. This paper provides the approach, methodology and some results.
