Steve Liles is a self-confessed geek and has been an Android fan since the launch day of the G1. When he isn't at work building publishing systems and apps for newspapers and magazines, you'll find him tinkering with his own apps, building 3D printers, or playing RTS games. He is currently working with a start-up to build an advertising system that links the print and digital worlds using computer vision on Android and iOS devices.

Digital. Condición: New. As an Android developer you know you re in a competitive marketplace. This book can give you the edge by guiding you through the concurrency constructs and proper use of AsyncTask to create smooth user interfaces.Key FeaturesLearn how to use Android's high-level concurrency constructs to keep your applications smooth and responsiveLeverage the full power of multi-core mobile CPUs to get more work done in less timeFrom quick calculations to scheduled downloads, each chapter explains the available mechanisms of asynchronous programming in detailBook DescriptionWith more than a million apps available from Google Play, it is more important than ever to build apps that stand out from the crowd. To be successful, apps must react quickly to user input, deliver results in a flash, and sync data in the background. The key to this is understanding the right way to implement asynchronous operations that work with the platform, instead of against it. Asynchronous Android is a practical book that guides you through the concurrency constructs provided by the Android platform, illustrating the applications, benefits, and pitfalls of each.Learn to use AsyncTask correctly to perform operations in the background, keeping user-interfaces running smoothly while avoiding treacherous memory leaks. Discover Handler, HandlerThread and Looper, the related and fundamental building blocks of asynchronous programming in Android. Escape from the constraints of the Activity lifecycle to load and cache data efficiently across your entire application with the Loader framework. Keep your data fresh with scheduled tasks, and understand how Services let your application continue to run in the background, even when the user is busy with something else.Asynchronous Android will help you to build well-behaved apps with smooth, responsive user-interfaces that delight users with speedy results and data that's always fresh, and keep the system happy and the battery charged by playing by the rules.What you will learnUnderstand Android s process model and its implications on your applicationsExercise multithreading to build well-behaved Android applications that work with the platformApply and control concurrency to deliver results quickly and keep your applications responsive to user inputDiscover Android-specific constructs that make asynchronous programming easy and efficientLearn how to apply Android s concurrency constructs to build smooth and responsive applicationsWho this book is forThis book is for Android developers who want to learn about the advanced concepts of Android programming.
