Java™ Platform, Micro Edition (Java ME) is the most ubiquitous application platform for mobile devices across the globe. It provides a robust, flexible environment for applications running on a broad range of other embedded devices, such as mobile phones, PDAs, TV set-top boxes, and printers. The Java ME platform includes flexible user interfaces, a robust security model, a broad range of built-in network protocols, and extensive support for networked and offline applications that can be downloaded dynamically. Applications based on Java ME specifications are written once for a wide range of devices, yet exploit each device's native capabilities.
The Java ME platform is deployed on millions of devices, supported by leading tool vendors, and used by companies worldwide. In short, it is the platform of choice for today's consumer and embedded devices. |

BREW is an application development platform created by Qualcomm for mobile phones. It is air-interface independent, i.e. it can support GSM/GPRS, UMTS, and CDMA. However, when BREW was first introduced it was solely developed for CDMA handsets. Standing for Binary Runtime Environment for Wireless, it is a software platform that can download and run small programs for playing games, sending messages, sharing photos, etc. The main advantage of BREW platform is that the application developers can easily port their applications between all the Qualcomm ASICs. The BREW runs between the application and the wireless device's chip operating system; therefore BREW enables a programmer to develop applications without needing to code for system interface or understand wireless applications. |

Adobe Flash Lite is a lightweight version of Adobe Flash Player optimized for mobile phones and other devices. Flash Lite 1.1 supports Flash 4 ActionScript. Flash Lite 2.0, based on Flash Player 7, supports Flash 7's more powerful ActionScript 2.0. Both versions also support the W3C Standard SVG Tiny[1] (a mobile profile of W3C's Scalable Vector Graphics recommendation). The advantage over SVG is the ability to add audio and interactive elements without the use of other technologies such as Javascript. Among the disadvantages it can be mentioned that Flash Lite applications are not capable of communicating with Bluetooth, infrared, or the camera on a phone. |

OMA DRM is a Digital Rights Management (DRM) system invented by the Open Mobile Alliance whose members represent the entire value chain, including mobile phone manufacturers (e.g. Nokia, Motorola, Samsung, Sony-Ericsson, BenQ-Siemens), mobile system manufacturers (e.g. Ericsson, Siemens, Openwave), operators (e.g. Vodafone, O2, Cingular, Deutsche Telekom, Orange) and IT companies (e.g. Microsoft, IBM, SUN). In order to ensure interoperability across all implementations the OMA provides in addition to the specifications also test tools for OMA DRM.
The scheme is implemented on many recent phones and is intended to be used by mobile content providers to add Digital Rights Management to their products. To this date two versions of OMA DRM have been released: OMA DRM 1.0 and OMA DRM 2.0. |

MPEG-4 aacPlus is the combination of three MPEG technologies comprising Advanced Audio Coding (AAC), coupled with Coding Technologies' Spectral Band Replication (SBR), and Parametric Stereo (PS) technologies. SBR is a unique bandwidth extension technique which enables audio codecs to deliver the same quality at half the bit rate. PS significantly increases the codec efficiency a second time for low bit rate stereo signals. |
