Personal Details and Background

The mobile process development involves the creation of application software for portable devices such as the personal digital assistants and mobile phones. The mobile application industry is one of the most exciting dimensions of the technology market (Koetsier, 2012). Popular platforms include the iOS, Android, Windows and Java technologies.
