Android REST APIs : Volley vs Retrofit

In the old days, networking in Android was a nightmare. Nowadays the problem is to find out which solution fits better the project’s necessities. Therefore, almost every Android applications use a Web REST API for data transfer.Previously, developers preferred to write their own code to retrieve and analyze data. However, they now have a whole range of REST client libraries, which can speed up development by reducing the coding efforts, and efficiently analyze data. The REST (Representational State Transfer) has become the most commonly used way for creating, publishing, and consuming Web services, exploiting JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) as adata exchange format. Android Volley and Retrofit are the most used libraries for accessing the REST Web APIs today.

Mobile Applications (apps) are defined as softwares that can be installed and executed on mobile devices like smart phones, and personal digital assistance (PDA). Mobile applications continue to emerge as a powerful and universal service delivery channel enabling companies to offer consumers a variety of products and services [1]. Indeed, the rapid advancement of mobile technology and the subsequent service innovation deriving from it is leading many companies to develop relations with consumers through mobile applications [2]. In addition, with lower prices of mobile devices with higher memory size and longer battery life have all resulted in a surge in usage of mobile phone and application services [3]. The increasing development platforms for apps represent a major revolution in software development. Rather than hardware or software firms managing the majority of software development, third-party developers now play a substantial role in industries. On that point, some research was focalized on the use of apps. The authors in [4] present a study exploring the factors that lead towards the decision to uninstall mobile application and cause smaller life cycle for the app. The study reveals factors concerning user behavior as well as describing app features, as responsible for the decline in app life cycle. In other context, a data clustering techniques to predict temporal characteristics of data consumption behavior of different mobile applications via wireless communications proposed in [5]. The authors exploit mobile application usage logs provided by a Wi-Fi local area network service provider to characterize temporal behavior of mobile applications. Specifically, “what” types of mobile applications users’ access and “when” users access them

 Based this revolution, The OCAD University has published a report [6] concerning the Mobile Innovation in service and its industrial applications. The team explains the important role that mobile technologies play in increasing the competitively of industrial companies. For this purpose, companies must focus on acquiring and developing better marketing skills using mobile applications.https://codeshoppy.com/android-app-ideas-for-students-college-project.html  They should explore avenues to obtain additional real-time data and information to inform their decision-maker. With the growing number of smartphone users around the world, the best thing to do is to have a mobile application strategy that can acclimate the service or product to this growing market. Recently, any web application it is expected to have a version of the mobile application, and we cannot always rely solely on responsive design. The case of having a web and a mobile app has several complications; one of them is the need for a standardized and centralized way to store data from the web and mobile. To avoid redundancy, we can save development time by creating a storage layer once, as an API, and reuse it with multiple application versions. The only variation would be the presentation of the application. Whether on the web, iOS, android or any other OS, we only need a way to communicate with our API and we well have your centralized data storage. Fortunately, there are libraries that support launching and running concurrent programs in the background in separate threads, network caching, and other features that significantly clean up network code. In this paper we present a comparative study between Volley [7, 8] and Retrofit [9], which are both great networking libraries for modern Android apps, but each has its own strengths that are worth weighing for critical projects. The first library we studied is Volley, a networking library developed by Google. It is currently used in most applications developed by Google engineers. The other library we reviewed is Retrofit, which is a simple and a light library for Android developed by Square

WIDE REACH Scrap Processors - RK Scrap Buyers Chennai Although the power of the five largest scrap companies is impressive, the next several largest companies still deals in scrap volumes that make them major players in the overall scrap arena. On the Pacific Coast, Schnitzer Steel Products Co. , Portland, Ore., has become a major processor and exporter and of ferrous scrap, while the steelmaking portions of its parent company (Schnitzer Steel Industries Inc.) are major consumers of ferrous scrap . Large shredder yards in Portland, Oakland and Tacoma, Wash., are where much of the ferrous scrap processing takes place. Some of this scrap is exported to Asian destinations, while some is prepared for domestic mills, including the company’s Cascade Rolling Mills division, which makes steel rod, wire and rebar. Some of the company’s scrap operations are joint ventures with Hugo Neu Corp. that extend the company’s reach into the eastern half of the U.S. A recent company effo...

 Thrifty textbook shopping -  Project Center in Kumbakonam Buying textbooks hits your bank account hard at the beginning of the year. Don't even think about how little you'll get when you return them. Fortunately, your schedule usually tells you what books you'll need. (Pro tip: If you wait to purchase your books, you might luck out on the first day and your professor will say you don't need to buy it.) If you do have to buy textbooks, exhaust all options before shelling out campus bookstore prices. Check out the book section on Chegg. You can rent or buy physical copies or e-books of the book you need for a fraction of the cost you'd pay on campus. Just make sure it's the right edition of the book. You can also sell old textbooks on Chegg and it has free shipping. Depending on what you're looking for, you might have luck on eBay if you search for "college textbooks." Amazon also offers textbooks for sale or rent -- it's a bit mor...
