In the event the Intel Developer Forum (IDF) 2012, 11-13 September 2012, Intel confirmed its support for HTML5. This was stated by J Renee James, Senior VP and GM of Intel's Software and Services.
The
statement comes just a day after Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg had
complained about HTML5 at Tech Crunch Disrupt event in San Francisco.
"Indeed, we have also agreed that the (HTML5) heralded too," said Renee.
However, he continued, Intel believes that HTML5 will be the perfect solution for cross-platform application development. The existence of the applications running in different places with ease is something that is desired by the user
This is in keeping with the era of Transparent Computing, which is needed embraced by developers today. Transparent Computing komputansi refers to the development of technology that eliminates the line between devices used.
Users,
according to Renee, in the end only cares to solve a case - or get some
experience - with technology that works well in cross-device.
For example, users want the same application running on the iPad can run on the Samsung Galaxy. Users want applications utilizing the experience was no different when using different devices.
HTML5, he said, is a cross-platform technology that can fulfill it. Developers
no longer have to think of development in a single platform, for
example iOS and lost opportunities on other platforms such as Android.
In his keynote speech, Renee showing some demos technology for cross-platform applications running. He also showed some HTML5 capabilities, ranging from running a High Definition video to interactive 3D graphics.
On the other hand, many challenges still to be faced HTML5. Including, for example, certain abilities can not run on all platforms. In fact, no HTML5 capabilities are not supported by all browsers.
But Intel seems to believe that it will be overcome. Intel
also actively supports HTML5, such as through collaboration with
Mozilla to bring parallel computing (River Trail) to HTML5 in Firefox.
Renee invites all developers who are interested in the concept of Transparent Computing to join the Intel Developer Zone. He promised in the near future there will be a specific material HTML5 in the program.
"We want to make sure (HTML5) will not fared badly as many other languages that had promised," he said.
