Title: Cloud computing and its impact on mobile software development: Two roads diverged
Abstract: Today, both desktop and mobile software systems are built to leverage resources available on the World Wide Web. However, in recent years desktop and mobile software systems have evolved in different directions. On desktop computers, the most popular application for accessing content and applications on the Web is the web browser. In mobile devices, in contrast, the majority of web content is consumed via custom-built native web apps. This divergence will not continue indefinitely. In the 2010's we will witness a major battle between two types of technologies: native web apps and Open Web applications that run in a web browser. This "Battle of the Decade" will determine the future of the software industry for years to come.
