Original Abstract

We analyze the Android operating system as a platform for building NFC-enabled applications. First, we briefly examine the security of NFC and provide an overview of the three modes (reader/writer, peer-to-peer, card emu-lation) that are exposed to developers through Android's API. Furthermore, we present some existing Android applications using NFC, such as diagnostic tools, contactless tag manipulation tools, peer-to-peer NFC applications, as well as a few uncommon use cases. We conclude with an assessment of the com-pleteness of Android's NFC API and suggest a novel use case.
