Programming with Google Android and Eclipse
Android is an operating system based on Linux with a Java programming interface. It provides tools, e.g. a compiler, debugger and a device emulator as well as its own Java Virtual machine (Dalvik).
Android is created by the Open Handset Alliance which is lead by Google.
Android uses a special Java virtual machine (Dalvik) which is based on the Apache Harmony Java implementation. Dalvik uses a special Bytecode so that you have to use the Android compiler to create this special byte-code.
Android supports 2-D and 3-D graphics using the OpenGL libraries and supports data storage in a SQLLite database.
For development Google provides the Android Development Tools (ADT) for Eclipse to develop Android applications.

Working with Data in ASP.NET 2.0 - Efficiently Paging Through Large Amounts of Data

- Custom Paging – improves the performance of default paging by retrieving only those records from the database that need to be displayed for the particular page of data requested by the user? however, custom paging involves a bit more effort to implement than default paging
