An Interactive Tool for Knowledge Representation and Sharing On Android Operating System

Abstract: Android is an operating system for mobile devices such as smart phones and tablet computers. It is developed by the Open Handset Alliance led by Google. Android uses the Dalvik virtual machine with just-in-time compilation to run compiled Java code. Android has a large community of developers writing applications ("apps") that extend the functionality of the devices. We aim at developing a note sharing application, whiteboard which will be a handwriting note taker that features natural digital ink, an easy to work user interface (UI) and a comprehensive toolset that will increase the benefits of android users. The main aim of this paper is to be to develop the above features in order to enable users to take down quick notes without searching for any extra resources like a notebook, pen etc. This will make note taking to android users as easy as storing and accessing contacts. We also provide sharing facilities through e-mail which enhances the capabilities of this application.
