Log into android mobile to fetch the device oriented information using remote access via a cloud
3 likes158 views
The document presents a platform that enables sharing of device-oriented information through a local private cloud, focusing on functionalities like remote access, security, and device independence. Users can retrieve data such as call history, messages, and GPS status via an Android application and a web interface. This system enhances information sharing across multiple devices, particularly useful for tracking in case of mobile theft.

2.3 SECE
It is a context aware platform. It helps in connecting different
isolated services to be integrated so as to make it more
powerful composite services. Thus it helps the users to create
advanced services.
All the above applications are limited and restricted to share
the information only on particular devices. However our goal is
to create a platform such that this data is shared anytime and
anywhere. Thus using the cloud services we can create a
secured and effective environment for managing our data.
3. ARCHITECTURE
The prime focus of this system is to provide information
sharing between devices. The user logs into the website through
the web browser remotely to access the android phone via
cloud. Thus the architecture is divided into three parts:
1] Website 2] Android application 3] Cloud Services
Fig 1: Architecture
3.1 Website
The website allows users to access their personal account. The
user is assigned an ID and a password. With the help of this ID
and password the user can log into the system anytime and
from anywhere. The website provides an interface to the user to
access the details. There will be certain options like check
missed call history, messages, battery status, GPS etc. The user
can click on the desired option and retrieve the required details.
3.2 Android Application
The android application helps in extracting all the device
oriented information from the android phone. The android
application updates the cloud via the network connection. The
GPRS in android device should always remain switched ON so
as to update the cloud and the web requests accordingly. The
application updates the information on particular intervals on
receiving requests from the cloud services.
3.3 Cloud Services
Cloud computing is used to describe a variety of different types
of computing concepts. It involves connecting a large number
of computers through networks such as internet.
It provides various services such as:
1] SaaS (Software as a service) which includes web browser,
Mobile application, thin client, terminal emulator etc.
2] PaaS (Platform as a service) which includes execution
runtime, database, web server, development tools etc.
3] IaaS (Infrastructure as a service) which includes virtual
machines, servers, storage, load balancers, network etc.
In our project we make use of SaaS.
4. OPERATIONS
4.1 Register
Registration will help the user to create an account. With the
help of which the user can access the necessary information
like any other registration process The user will have to fill up
the form which will provide him with an ID and password
through which the user can access the phone’s details.
4.2 Login/logout
When the user logs in the system it sets a trigger which will
provide the user the information via a network connection.
Once the data is retrieved user must log out for safety.
4.3 Start Android Application
The user with the application in the android phone must keep
his application switched ON so that the data is periodically
updated in the cloud via the network.
4.4 Check
This operation is performed after logging into the web
interface. It enables the user to check the messages, missed call
history, battery status, location of his phone.
5. REQUIREMENTS
5.1 Technologies Used
1. Android Smartphone with built in GPS and Android OS,
version 2.1 and above.
2. Android Software Development Kit (SDK).
3. Eclipse using Android Development Toolkit (ADT).
4. Web services.
5.2 Backend

5.3 Cloud
Google App Engine Cloud Or any private cloud services.
5.4 Operating System
Windows XP or later versions
6. CONCLUSIONS
Thus our system provides a platform for sharing the device
oriented information via a local private cloud. It enables the
user to stay updated with his phone from a remote location. It
provides great assistance in case of mobile theft. The user can
track the location of his phone through a web browser with the
help of cloud services. The user can access the required
information anytime and from anywhere. Our system focuses
on some important and fruitful technologies which may assist
human race in easier interaction with the digital world.

The android application helps the user to fetch the device oriented information like missed call history, messages, battery status and GPS. Our system contains a website which helps the user to track all the required information through his personal account. Thus our system helps in making it easier to support new cloud services as output, and our android application helps in setting various triggers to push the device oriented information into the cloud.

INTRODUCTION In today’s era, Mobile devices are spreading at a remarkable rate. The usage of mobile devices is increasing rapidly. However nowadays not only mobile devices, but a user may also carry several devices simultaneously. Consider for instance a user may carry a mobile phone, an Android Tablet and a Laptop. In such cases information sharing between these devices becomes a prime goal. Also with the development of technologies, nowadays cloud computing has become the buzzword. The cloud provides easy and faster access to the data which makes it beneficial for the users. Additionally, users can access the required data and services anytime and anywhere. Thus with the development of cloud computing, the service providers no longer have to worry about the resources and resource management. Since it is managed by the cloud providers The shared information is broadly categorized into two types, i.e the Device oriented information and the User oriented information. Sharing of information like mails, schedules is user based. But some information such as Missed call history, messages, sensor information is called as device oriented information. Here our system provides access to such device oriented information. In our project, our purpose is to create a platform that helps the user to share such device oriented information through a private cloud. The cloud is built using SaaS. The android application will push the data from the device to the cloud through a network connection. While the user can log into his account from the web browser to retrieve his desired data. Our application provides the following functionalities: 1. Easy Access anytime and anywhere. 2. Security and Authorization 3. Device Independence 4. Remote Access 5. Easy Expansion 2. RELATED WORKS There exists number of tools for pushing data into the cloud from smart phones. All these applications make use of internet. Some of them are as follows: 2.1 Growl Growl is a local application that helps in sharing the information between the devices for which it first needs to be configured. When user receives some shared information on his device the growl’s application which is activated in the device sends a notification to growl. This then shows a pop up to notify the user that the device received a shared information. Users can also set preferences so that the growl notifies accordingly. The application information is notified only to the devices inside the LAN. 2.2 Context Watcher It is a context aware application which enables the users to remain updated with their information. This mobile application helps the end users to share their personal context data such as their speed, location, heartbeat with their mutual consent. For instance Family members, friends can stay updated about each other.
