English to Chinese Tech/Engineering IT (Information Technology) Mobile platform

There's no simple answer to the app-development question, according to Mark Brooks, CTO of Woodland Hills, Calif.-based Health Net ($12.5 million in 2009 premiums), a health carrier that released an app for both the iPhone and Android this year. While the mobile platforms are continuing to converge in terms of capabilities, he says, there still are differences in the ways applications must be developed for them. "In terms of the capability you can provide your customer, we see it as a one-for-one right now," he relates. "But there are platform differences in terms of building the capability. With Apple and Android, the method you use to ***engage*** the development community is different: Android is Java-based while Apple is more proprietary."
据Mark Brooks声称，应用程序开发问题根本没有简单的答案。他是总部设在加州伍德兰希尔斯的Health Net（2009年保险费为1250万美元）的首席技术官，这家健康保险公司在去年发布了一款同时面向iPhone和Android的应用程序。他表示，虽然各大移动平台在功能方面继续趋向融合，但为它们开发应用程序的方式还是存在差异。他说：“就你能为客户提供的整体功能而言，我们认为各大移动平台不相上下。但各平台在实现功能方面还是有差异。拿苹果和Android来说，你***与***开发社区***互动***所采用的方法不一样：Android基于开放的Java，而苹果的专有性比较强。”
