Multi-tasking,

not application swapping

• Both Apple iOS4 and Google

Android have multi-tasking

limitations

Most apps are ‘paused’ when

• BlackBerry Tablet OS offers true

multi-tasking

• Apps can continue to run even

when not in foreground• Most apps are ‘paused’ when

not in foreground

• Apple tightly constrains third-

party multi-tasking

• Android arbitrarily kills apps

that aren’t in foreground

when not in foreground

• Third-party apps have full

ability to multi-task

• Conservative strategy for

embedded systems (no

arbitrary app killing)
