Abstract
In Smartphone a touch screen has changed the paradigm of user interface on personal computing devices just through single software rather than hardware keyboards and number pads. Therefore it is receiving most of the attention as mobile UX (User eXperience). This paper explores the process of touch event and the feasibility of increasing the performance of it on Android Froyo and Gingerbread. For this purpose, this paper suggests a technique to improve the performance of touch event screen update by using virtual touch event without being synchronized to touch event. The simulation results show that the proposed method can increase 15% of performance on processing the number of frames as for frame per second.
