/24-7PressRelease/ - January 24, 2008 - Leading BPO Company Optimum Outsourcing Ltd (www.optimum-outsourcing.com) and the University of Technology Mauritius (UTM) are jointly organizing a Mobile Games Design Competition.
The number of mobile owners in Mauritius is actually twice as much as the number of PC owners. Moreover, a similar trend is being observed in the region, especially in Africa. Thus, Mobile Computing has a far better chance at bridging the digital divide than the desktop computer ever had. Optimum Outsourcing Ltd. believes that Mauritius has the potential and competence to become a reference in Mobile Application Development and as a matter of fact, is putting in place all the necessary facilities and support to encourage Research and Development in this field. The competition has been designed to foster interest in Mobile Application Development and to encourage creativity in software design for portable devices.
The competition is open to all individual designers or programmers as well as to group (s) of designers or programmers. It is important to note that participants should design mobile application software that would incorporate innovative ideas and technologies. Last but not least, candidates are encouraged (but not mandated) to consider the following challenges in implementing their software:
- Possibility of having multi-user gaming sessions.
- Incorporating local culture as part of the game.
- Platform independence.
- Game usability.
