What areas of computer science are especially important for mobile development?

Question

This is not a specific issue related to the platform; rather, I am interested in common platforms, independent areas of computer science, which are especially important for the development of mobile applications.

For example, things like compression methods, distributed synchronization algorithms, etc. What theoretical concepts did you find relevant, useful, or capable of creating mobile applications?

Answer 1

Human-computer interaction is an important consideration, given that mobile devices have all kinds of inputs that a “normal” computer does not have — such as touch screens (with multi-touch), one or more microphones, camera (s), etc.

Answer 2

Embedded software is based on the habit of processing scarce resources, such as processor load and battery life.
