Android 4.0 description by aurosoftindia.

Simple, Beautiful, Useful Refined, evolved UI
Android 4.0 makes common actions more visible and lets you navigate with simple, intuitive gestures. Refined animations and feedback throughout the system make interactions engaging and interesting. An entirely new typeface optimized for high-resolution screens improves readability and brings a polished, modern feel to the user interface.  
Multitasking is a key strength of Android and it's made even easier and more visual on Android 4.0.  Rich and interactive notifications let you keep in constant touch with incoming messages, play music tracks, see real-time updates from apps, and much more.

Home screen folders and favorites tray
New home screen folders offer a new way for you to group your apps and shortcuts logically, just by dragging one onto another. In All Apps launcher, you can now simply drag an app to get information about it or immediately uninstall it, or disable a pre-installed app. 

Resizable widgets
In Android 4.0 home screens are designed to be content-rich and customizable. You can do much more than add shortcuts — you can embed live application content directly through interactive widgets. Widgets let you check email, flip through a calendar, play music, check social streams and more — right from the home screen, without having to launch apps. Widgets are resizable, so you can expand them to show more content or shrink them to save space. 

New lock screen actions
The lock screens now let you do more without unlocking. From the slide lock screen, you can jump directly to the camera for a picture or pull down the notifications window to check for messages. When listening to music, you can even manage music tracks and see album art. 


Quick responses for incoming calls
When an incoming call arrives, you can now quickly respond by text message, without needing to pick up the call or unlock the device. On the incoming call screen, you simply slide a control to see a list of text responses and then tap to send and end the call. You can add your own responses and manage the list from the Settings app. 

Swipe to dismiss notifications, tasks, and browser tabs
Android 4.0 makes managing notifications, recent apps, and browser tabs even easier. You can now dismiss individual notifications, apps from the Recent Apps list, and browser tabs with a simple swipe of a finger.

  1.  A spell-checker lets you find errors and fix them faster.
  2. A powerful voice input engine lets you dictate continuously.
 Improved text input and spell-checking
The soft keyboard in Android 4.0 makes text input even faster and more accurate. Error correction and word suggestion are improved through a new set of default dictionaries and more accurate heuristics for handling cases such as double-typed characters, skipped letters, and omitted spaces.To fix misspelled words more easily, Android 4.0 adds a spell-checker that locates and underlines errors and suggests replacement words. 

Powerful voice input engine
Android 4.0 introduces a powerful new voice input engine that offers a continuous "open microphone" experience and streaming voice recognition. You can speak continuously for a prolonged time, even pausing for intervals if needed, and dictate punctuation to create correct sentences. 


Control over network data
Mobile devices can make extensive use of network data for streaming content, synchronizing data, downloading apps, and more. To meet the needs of you with tiered or metered data plans, Android 4.0 adds new controls for managing network data usage.  

Designed for accessibility
A variety of new features greatly enhance the accessibility of Android 4.0 for blind or visually impaired users. Most important is a new explore-by-touch mode that lets you navigate without having to see the screen. Touching the screen once triggers audible feedback that identifies the UI component below; a second touch in the same component activates it with a full touch event. The new mode is especially important to support users on new devices that use virtual buttons in the System Bar, rather than dedicated hardware buttons or trackballs 

Communication and sharing 

People and profiles
Throughout the system, your social groups, profiles, and contacts are linked together and integrated for easy accessibility. At the center is a new People app that offers richer profile information, including a large profile picture, phone numbers, addresses and accounts, status updates, events, and a new button for connecting on integrated social networks. 

Unified calendar, visual voicemail
To help organize appointments and events, an updated Calendar app brings together personal, work, school, and social agendas. With user permission, other applications can contribute events to the calendar and manage reminders, for an integrated view across multiple calendar providers. The app is redesigned to let you manage events more easily. Calendars are color-coded and you can swipe left or right to change dates and pinch to zoom in or out agendas.

Rich and versatile camera capabilities

The Camera app includes many new features that let you capture special moments with great photos and videos. After capturing images, you can edit and share them easily with friends.
After taking a picture or video, you can quickly share it by email, text message, Bluetooth, social networks, and more, just by tapping the thumbnail in the camera controls. 

Redesigned Gallery app with photo editor
The Gallery app now makes it easier to manage, show, and share photos and videos. For managing collections, a redesigned album layout shows many more albums and offers larger thumbnails. There are many ways to sort albums, including by time, location, people, and tags. An improved Picture Gallery widget lets you look at pictures directly on the home screen. The widget can display pictures from a selected album, shuffle pictures from all albums, or show a single image. After adding the widget to the home screen, you can flick through the photo stacks to locate the image you want, and then tap to load it in Gallery. 

Live Effects for transforming video
Live Effects is a collection of graphical transformations that add interest and fun to videos captured in the Camera app. For example, you can change the background behind them to any stock or custom image, for just the right setting when shooting video. 

Sharing with screenshots
You can now share what's on your screens more easily by taking screenshots. Hardware buttons let them snap a screenshot and store it locally. Afterward, you can view, edit, and share the screen shot in Gallery or a similar app. 

Cloud-connected experience
Android has always been cloud-connected, letting you browse the web and sync photos, apps, games, email, and contacts — wherever you are and across all of your devices. Android 4.0 adds new browsing and email capabilities to let you take even more with them and keep communication organized. 

Powerful web browsing
The Android Browser offers an experience that’s as rich and convenient as a desktop browser. It lets you instantly sync and manage Google Chrome bookmarks from all of your accounts, jump to your favorite content faster, and even save it for reading later in case there's no network available. 

Improved email
In Android 4.0, email is easier to send, read, and manage. For composing email, improved auto-completion of recipients helps with finding and adding frequent contacts more quickly. For easier input of frequent text, you can now create quick responses and store them in the app, then enter them from a convenient menu when composing. When replying to a message, you can now
For keeping track of incoming email more easily, a resizable Email widget lets you flick through recent email right from the home screen, then jump into the Email app to compose or reply. 


Innovation
Android is continuously driving innovation forward, pushing the boundaries of communication and sharing with new capabilities and interactions. 

Android Beam for NFC-based sharing
Android Beam is an innovative, convenient feature for sharing across two NFC-enabled devices; It lets people instantly exchange favorite apps, contacts, music, videos — almost anything. It’s incredibly simple and convenient to use — there’s no menu to open, application to launch, or pairing needed. Just touch one Android-powered phone to another, and then tap to send. 

Face Unlock
Android 4.0 introduces a completely new approach to securing a device, making each person's device even more personal — Face Unlock is a new screen-lock option that lets you unlock your device with your face. It takes advantage of the device front-facing camera and state-of-the-art facial recognition technology to register a face during setup and then to recognize it again when unlocking the device. Just hold your device in front of your face to unlock, or use a backup PIN or pattern.

 Wi-Fi Direct and Bluetooth HDP

Support for Wi-Fi Direct lets you connect directly to nearby peer devices over Wi-Fi, for more reliable, higher-speed communication. No internet connection or tethering is needed. Through third-party apps, you can connect to compatible devices to take advantage of new features such as instant sharing of files, photos, or other media; streaming video or audio from another device; or connecting to compatible printers or other devices.
Android 4.0 also introduces built-in support for connecting to Bluetooth Health Device Profile (HDP) devices. With support from third-party apps, you can connect to wireless medical devices and sensors in hospitals, fitness centers, homes, and elsewhere.

Cocos2d- The amazing iPhone Technology

Cocos2d for iPhone by aurosoftindia.

Cocos2d for iPhone is a framework for building 2D games, demos, and other graphical/interactive applications. It is based on the cocoa2d design. It uses the same API, but instead of using python it uses objective-c. The iPhone Game Kit introduces you to Cocos2D, the leading, community-supported iPhone and Android game engine.

High-quality graphics are an important part of a well-designed application. In fact, high-quality graphics is one of the things that set Mac OS X apart from many other operating systems. While some operating systems rely on flat colors and rectangular objects, Mac OS X uses color, transparency, and its advanced compositing system to give programs a more fluid and inviting appearance. Drawing is a fundamental part of most Cocoa applications. If your application uses only standard system controls, then Cocoa does all of the drawing for you. If you use custom views or controls, though, then it is up to you to create their appearance using drawing commands. The Cocoa drawing environment is available to all applications built on top of the Application Kit framework (AppKit.framework). This framework defines numerous classes and functions for drawing everything from primitive shapes to complex images and text. Cocoa drawing also relies on some primitive data types found in the Foundation framework (Foundation. Framework) cocos2d for iPhone supports: iPod Touch, iPhone, iPad and OS X
 
Cocos2d for iPhone is:

Oolonge Engine

The Oolong game engine is a 3D engine written in C++, and provides excellent performance. For those of you wanting to create games for the iPhone, the Oolong Engine provides a great starting point. 3D game creation becomes a whole lot simpler and it ties in with the Bullet Physics SDK. The Oolong Engine is written in C++ with some help from Objective-C. It will help you to create new games and port existing games to the iPhone, the iPod touch and the iPad. 

Features of  Oolong Engine:
 
     OpenGL ES 1.1 and OpenGL 2.0 (> iPhone 3GS, iPod touch third gen, iPad) support
     Math library that supports floating-point calculations with an interface very similar to the D3D math library
     Support for numerous texture formats including the PowerVR 2-bit, 4-bit and normal map compression formats
     Support for PowerVR's POD (Scene and Meshes), .3DS and .blend file formats
     Touch screen support
     Accelerometer support
     Text rendering to support a basic UI
     Timing: several functions that can replace rdstc, QueryPerformance etc.
     Profiler: industry proven in-game profiler
     Resources streaming system
     Bullet SDK support (for 3D Physics)
     Audio engine with OpenAL support
     Networking with the ENet library
     Industry proven memory manager from 

The downside of the Oolong engine is that it is difficult to use for those that are not familiar with OpenGL ES.
Oolong provides support for a wide variety of features, and very good performance, as I said the only problem with Oolong is that it is difficult to use.  This is a low-level engine designed for programmers so if you’re just getting into game development I would stay away.
You will find the latest version on google code, there is very little documentation for Oolong, but the community is very active, and you can get answers to many of your questions there.
I would recommend Oolong to those looking to create their own game engine looking for something to start with.
