AT&T Suggests Design Approaches to Improve Responsiveness of Mobile apps

The popular wireless carrier AT&T has released its research paper that aims at finding out design approaches that could improve application responsiveness.

The result of the AT&T research examines one of the unique challenges in mobile development – bringing together Internet protocols and wireless protocols with the utilization of radio resources. It suggests a few optimization tips that are based on carrier-independent standards and protocols and are applicable for every app developer. These suggestions are listed under 11 topics.

• Understand Mobile Networks
• Handle Multiple Simultaneous TCP Connections
• Reduce Inefficient Connections with Periodic Transfers
• Deal with Connection Opening Problems
• Close Connections As Soon As Possible
• Offload to Wi-Fi
• Handle Duplicate Content and Caching
• Utilize Pre-fetching
