Optimizing Linux and Android applications can be a challenging experience. Using a popular FIR filter example implemented in three different forms, we will discuss the pros and cons of coding Android multimedia apps using Java and how this type of software can be significantly accelerated using C/C++ native code and the ARM® NEON™ SIMD engine. We will also be demonstrating how ARM Streamline can be used to make the software optimization workflow simpler and more efficient by identifying hotspots, parallelization issues and other system-wide events that can negatively impact your app’s performance.

At the end of this webinar, you will be able understand:

• Important performance aspects related to Android application design
• Benefits of using ARM professional tools to optimize Linux and Android software

Who should attend:

• Anyone planning Linux related development or Android-based products
• Software developers for equipment manufacturers
• Board support package (BSP) developers for silicon manufacturers
• Android application developers, especially game and multimedia applications
