Intel Atom Developer Program fosters the creation of applications for mobile phones

Intel has announced the launch of Intel Atom Developer Program for independent software vendors and developers. Its mission - to encourage the creation of applications for hardware solutions based on Intel Atom, including netbooks. Under this program, developers will be able to create and sell software applications for them, reducing production costs and optimizing the process of developing new applications, including through the purchase of tools and modules develop from independent developers and software vendors.

To ensure the widest possible choice of applications for various platforms, Intel Atom Developer Program will support multiple operating systems and runtime. This will allow developers to implement support for multiple platforms based on a single code, avoiding expensive re-programming and thereby reducing costs and time to market. For example, Microsoft Silverlight opens access to different categories of consumers and provides great opportunities for the development of software for Windows and Moblin through a single set of tools, Visual Studio and. NET.

More information about the program, API, certification process, and shops can be found on the website appdeveloper.intel.com. At the moment, is accepting applications for participation in the program by independent software vendors and developers. Participants will be given access to the tools and resources, facilitate the preparation for construction. Software Development Kit for Intel Atom Developer Program will be available to participants at the end of autumn.
