Developing Applications for Multiple Screen Sizes in Android

One of the challenges that you will encounter during your time as an Android app developer is developing for multiple screen sizes. There are many things to keep in mind during your adventure into screen sizes. The following list can keep you on track.
  • The size requirements for each icon in each density vary for each type of icon. You find launcher icons, menu icons, status bar icons, tab icons, and many more. They are all built differently for each screen density. When building these icons, reference the Android Icon Design Guidelines.
  • Try to always use the density-independent pixel (dip or dp) measurement unit for views and the scale-independent pixel (sip or sp) for font sizes when defining your user interface. This helps your application scale to different devices. The density-independent pixel is a virtual pixel that scales proportionally for each given screen density.
  • Provide the supports-screens element to the AndroidManifest.xml file to help the Android market determine whether your application is compatible with various screen sizes.
  • Provide graphics for extra-high-, high-, medium-, and low-density devices. While this may increase your development and design time, it greatly improves the usability and appearance of your application.
  • Use fragments liberally to make supporting tablet devices easier.

Process of Wastewater Treatment Plant

PROCESS OF WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT : Wastewater enters the treatment plant First it goes through a fine screen, next to aerated grit chamber, and then enters the primary clarifier. Sludge settled in the primary clarifier is sent to the fermenters and then to digesters. After the primary treatment, wastewater flows into (BNR) bioreactors. The activated sludge is separated in the following secondary clarifier. The clear effluent flows into Ultraviolet (UV), then to River. Settled activated sludge in the secondary clarifier is pumped back to BNR. Excess sludge is pumped into the dissolved air floatation (DAF) unit for thickening. Wastewater is collected in sanitary sewers (a complex network of underground pipes). Upon reaching the treatment plant, the wastewater flows through a series of treatment processes which remove the wastes from the...

Water Analysis : To determine the potability of water by MPN Test

AIM : To determine the potability of water by MPN Test INTRODUCTION: Water which receives animally & human which form a primary source of water borne disease. Direct testing procedures capable of detecting & quantifying the full spectrum of pathogens & identifying their source is time consuming process because of their variable occurrence, survival rate & origin; hence an indicator system has been identified as a best method for evaluating the microbiological quality of water. A fecal coli form test is considered as most reliable test available for detesting   the presence of contamination of an intesting origin, the coli form group comprises all aerobic & facuttative an aerobic, gram –ve   non spirulating, rod shaped bacteria that ferment lactase with gas format within 48hrs at 35 ˚c. REQUIREMENTS: Single strength of sactose bile growth (10 ml) -10 test tube Double strength of sactase bile growth (10 ml) - 5 test tube Water sam...
