Android is a free open-source operating system (OS), which allows an in-depth understanding of its architecture. Therefore, many manufacturers are utilizing this OS to produce mobile devices (smartphones, smartwatch, and smart glasses) in different brands, including Google Pixel, Motorola, Samsung, and Sony. Notably, the employment of OS leads to a rapid increase in the number of Android users. However, unethical authors tend to develop malware in the devices for wealth, fame, or private purposes. Although practitioners conduct intrusion detection analyses, such as static analysis, there is an inadequate number of review articles discussing the research efforts on this type of analysis. Therefore, this study discusses the articles published from 2009 until 2019 and analyses the steps in the static analysis (reverse engineer, features, and classification) with taxonomy. Following that, the research issue in static analysis is also highlighted. Overall, this study serves as the guidance for novice security practitioners and expert researchers in the proposal of novel research to detect malware through static analysis.

Though commercial CFD codes are widely used in flow analysis, but there are free/open source programs which have been applying for computational fluid dynamics. An open source software makes it possible to customize the solver according to the flow features. In the present paper, cavitating flows over 2D NACA66 hydrofoil were simulated based on open source software, where SALOME is used for mesh generation, OpenFOAM for flow solution under Debian GNU/Linux operating system. The results show the simulated cavitating flow characteristics such as cavity revolution, vortex shedding, cavitation induced pressure vibrations, etc. are validated by experiments and results obtained from proprietary software as Ansys Fluent. Thus, the proposed numerical methods based on open source platform are suitable for flow simulations, even for depicting the complicated physics of cavitation.

The Android is mobile platform. It is an open source and free operating system application, by Google it is developed and maintained. It was designed essentially for touch screen mobile devices, such as and tablet, computers, smart phones, watch television, cars etc. Android is one of the most widely used mobile OS. Android is a not only operating system but also key applications and middleware. Android is an open source operating system. It is developed by the open handset Alliance, led by Google, and other companies. Those are used to android studio 2.2.3 version and development the mobile application.

Android is a software stack for mobile devices that includes an operating system, middleware, and key applications. Android is a software platform and operating system for mobile devices based on the Linux operating system and developed by Google and the Open Handset Alliance. It allows developers to write managed code in a Java-like language that utilizes Google-developed Java libraries but does not support programs developed in native code. The unveiling of the Android platform on 5 November 2007 was announced with the founding of the Open Handset Alliance, a consortium of 34 hard-ware, software and telecom companies devoted to advancing open standards for mobile devices. When released in 2008, most of the Android platform will be made available under the Apache free-software and open-source license.

Android is one of the famous mobile operating system created by Google company. Advantages of the android operating system itself is to provide an open platform (open source) for developers to create their own millions of applications that will be used for a wide range of mobile devices (mobile devices). Needs of information technology is developing rapidly. Mobile even more Smartphone is one of the means used to obtain information more quickly and accurately, as well as being tools needed in various fields. Especially when you're enjoying a holiday somewhere and need information right away, of course it was very helpful in finding such information. While on vacation in a place we definitely want to taste the culinary place and it has become a lifestyle in today. That's what we call the culinary tour. Culinary tourism itself is an action done a lot of people in the field of dietary needs, for entertainment. Based on application compatibility testing Nyapek culinary tourism in the city of Bogor based on Android can run optimally and display interface on the phone with Minimal OS v5.0 (Lollipop) with a 5-inch screen

This study report is aimed at identifying opportunities and challenges in developing a completely free and opensource mobile operating system based on AOSP. In this report, I describe the installation of LineageOS on a OnePlus One mobiledevice. I first describe the installation of a pre-built LineageOS image to the device, andthen I explain how i compiled the available source to build my own LineageOS image forthe device. Source compilation provides a more complete understanding of device-level OSbuilds. I also discuss various alternatives to Google Mobile Services. All the available alternative services are in the development stage. A promising approach is the reverse engineering mi-croG project, which is a free and open source re-implementation of Google Mobile Services. Such alternatives to Google’s services, meaning client-side free and open source applications and libraries, provide an excellent base upon which can build completely free and opensource background services as well as applications on mobile devices.


Attacks on users through mobile devices in general, and mobile devices with Android operating system in particular, have been causing many serious consequences. Research [1] lists the vulnerabilities found in the Android operating system, making it the preferred target of cyberattackers. Report [2] statistics the number of cyberattacks via mobile devices and mobile devices using Android operating system. The report points out the insecurity of information from applications downloaded by users from Android apps stores. Therefore, to prevent the attack and distribution of malware through Android apps, it is necessary to research the method of detecting malicious code from the time users download applications to their devices. Recent approaches often rely on static analysis and dynamic analysis to look for unusual behavior in applications. In this paper, we will propose the use of static analysis techniques to build a behavior of malicious code in the application and machine learning algorithms to detect malicious behavior.

This research paper presents organization of the business environment for work with geographic information systems (GIS) which are based on open source. The solution is completely open source: operating system, working environment and supporting apps. The architecture consists of: server, workstations, mobile devices and sensors. Software packages for each architecture segment will be displayed. The goal is to achieve a complete business environment for work with open source GIS, thus minimizing the costs of system development and maintenance. The illustrated example shows the possibility of applying GIS within a forestry company, in the field of wildfire monitoring and data collection and registering the possibility of wildfire occurrence using IoT.

In recent times, malware detection mechanism systems of mobile smart devices are getting growing concentration from researchers. With the quick expansion of malwares found in mobile devices, preventing the secrecy of mobile users is incredibly imperative and necessary. Intrusion detection systems are programming devices that consequently assemble information, dissect it and recognize such occurrences. These systems advanced to intrusion aversion systems (IPS) including extra counteractive action capacities.   In Intrusion detection systems, accuracy rate plays a significant role in measuring the effectiveness of an approach. One of the motivations of this study is to increase the true positive as well as reducing the false-positive rates beyond other studies.
