Introduction-----------------------

What Is Android ?• Android is an Mobile operating system based on the Linux kernel

Programmed in C (coré), C++, Java .

• It was developed in Palo Alto, California.

• Android was developed by the Andy Rubin, Rich Miner, Nick Sears and Chris White in 2003.

• Android was purchased by the GOOGLE in AUGUST,2005 for 50 million $.

• The first Android-powered phone was sold in October 2008.

• As of September 3, 2013, 1 billion Android devices have been activated.

• As of May 2013, 48 billion apps have been installed from the Google Play store.

• Android is the world's most widely used Smartphone platform, overtaking Symbian in the fourth quarter of 2010.

Features==========

• User gets millions of applications that user can not get in any other mobile operating system.

• Android supports advanced audio/video/still media formats such as MPEG-4, H.264, MP3, and AAC, AMR, JPEG, PNG, GIF.

• Multi-touch, Multitasking, Screen capture, Video calling, Multiple language (46 languages)support, Java support.

• Third-party apps available on Google Play and other app stores can extensively re-theme the homescreen, and even mimic the look of other operating systems, such as Windows Phone.

• Internal hardware such as accelerometers, gyroscopes and proximity sensors are used by some applications to respond to additional user actions.

• Android supports wireless communication using:- 3G Networks 4G Networks 802.11 Wi-Fi Networks Bluetooth Connectivity

Market share==============

• By the fourth quarter of 2010 this had grown to 33% of the market, becoming the top-selling Smartphone platform.

• By the third quarter of 2012 Android had a 75% share of the global Smartphone market according to the research firm IDC.

• In July 2011, Google said that 550,000 new Android devices were being activated every day.

• In September 2012, 500 million devices had been activated with 1.3 million activations per day.

Tablets========

• initially Android tablet adoption was slow. One of the main causes

was the chicken or the egg situation where consumers were hesitant to buy an Android tablet due to a lack of high quality tablet apps.

• Furthermore, several Android tablets such as the Motorola Xoom were priced the same or higher than the iPad, which hurt sales.

• This began to change in 2012 with the release of the affordable Nexus 7 and a push by Google for developers to write better tablet apps .

Memory management Hardware requirements

============================• Android devices are incorporating many optional hardware components,

including still or video cameras, GPS, hardware orientation sensors, dedicated gaming controls, accelerometers, gyroscopes, proximity sensors, pressure sensors, thermometers and touch screens.

• As of November 2013, current versions of Android require at least 512 MB of RAM and a 32-bit ARMv7, MIPS or x86 architecture processor,together with an OpenGL ES 2.0 compatible graphics processing unit (GPU).

• In 2012 Intel processors began to appear on more mainstream Android platforms, such as phones.

• Android manages the apps stored in memory automatically: when memory is low, the system will begin killing apps and processes that have been inactive for a while, in reverse order since they were last used (i.e. oldest first), Some third-party task killers are generally regarded as doing more harm than good.

Linux kernel==============

• As of November 2013, current Android versions consist of a kernel based on the Linux kernel version 3.x ,while Android versions older than 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich were based on the Linux kernel 2.6.x

• The open and customizable nature of Android allows it to be used on other electronics a side from smartphones and tablets, including laptops and netbooks, smartbooks smart TVs (Google TV) and cameras (Nikon Coolpix S800c and Galaxy Camera).

• In addition, the Android operating system has seen applications on smart glasses (Google Glass), wristwatches,headphones,car CD and DVD players, mirrors.

• Another variety of devices are those that, while not running Android themselves, have been designed to interface with and act as a companion to an Android device, such as Sony's Smart Watch line or Samsung's Galaxy Gear.
