    MIDP Scope
    Define the architecture and the associated APIs required to enable an open application development environment for Mobile Information Devices (MID) Enable 3rd-party application development for 3rdthese devices Simplicity, rather than completeness is a main goal

    MIDP Scope: Primary Goals


    Size: must fit in small footprint (128K ROM) Efficiency: Must run on low- end microprocessors low Must run in limited heap size (32 128K RAM) (32 Minimal creation of garbage Time to market

    MIDP assumptions on MIDs


    MIDP was developed with the following assumption on MIDs System software A minimal kernel to manage hardware with at least one schedulable entity to run the Java virtual machine (JVM) A mechanism to read and write from non-volatile memory A minimal capability to write to a bit-mapped graphics display Read and write access to the device's wireless networking A mechanism to provide a time base for use in time stamping the records written to persistent storage

    Slide 10

    MIDP Class Libraries


    MIDP defines the following set of class libraries that map to the aforementioned assumptions. Application Lifecycle Package javax.microedition.midlet javax. microedition. User Interface Package javax.microedition.lcdui javax. microedition. Persistence Package javax.microedition.rms javax. microedition. Networking Package javax.microedition.io javax. microedition. Language and Utility Packages java.lang and java.util java.lang java.util

    MIDP Layers
    Hardware Layer: This layer includes the device's CPU, ROM, and EEPROM Native System Software: This layer includes the operating system and the libraries used by the device's native applications. CLDC Classes Layer: This layer sits on top of the native system software. This layer contains the K Virtual Machine (KVM) and associated libraries defined within the CLDC specification. This layer provides the underlying Java functionality upon which higher-level Java APIs, highersuch as those defined in the MIDP , may be built. MIDP Classes Layer: Sits atop the CLDC layer to provide additional APIs for cellular phone, two-way pager, and PDA vertical markets. two-

    MIDP Layers (Contd)


    OEM-Specific Classes: OEM OEMss additional device-specific classes to address devicedevice-specific application requirements. device Applications written using these APIs will not be portable across multiple MIDs. MIDs. MIDP Application Layer: Applications that can be created for a MID that use only APIs defined within of the MIDP and CLDC specifications. These applications, or "MIDlets," will be portable "MIDlets," across all MIDs. MIDs.

    Notice that OEM-specification classes can be designed to interact with the MIDP and CLDC classes layer.

    MIDP Layers (Contd)


    OEM-Specific Application Layer: OEM An OEM-specific application based on OEM-specific OEMOEMclasses that are not part of the MIDP specification. These applications are not portable across MIDs. MIDs. Native Application Layer: Application that is not written in Java and is built on top of the MID's existing native system software. Not portable across MIDs. MIDs.

    Notice that OEM-specification classes can be designed to interact with the MIDP and CLDC classes layer.
