3. INTRODUCTION
o Mobile operating system is a software platform on
which application programs can run on mobile
devices.
o Different types of mobile operating system.
o The given diagram describes the interaction
between the user (mobile user),application
(internet ,camera etc),operating system(mobile OS) &
hardware(mobile phone).
1. Android OS
2. iPhone OS
3. Windows mobile
4. Palm
5. Symbian OS etc.
4. Android Mobile OS:
Revolution in mobile experience
• Android was founded in Palo Alto ,California ,in
October 2003 by Andy Rubin ,Rich Miner ,Nick
Sears and Chris White .
Android is an open system supported by “ Open Handset Alliance”.
Open System refers to software/operating system whose source code
is available for understanding and possible modification and
improvement.
Android software stack and framework is built on Linux kernel and
programmed in C / C++ / Java and XML.
Its minimum requirement is 200MHZ processor, 32 MB RAM,32 MB
storage.
Android specially developed for java based applications. It supports
more than 4lakh apps.
5. Open handset alliance(OHA)
The Open Handset Alliance (OHA) is a business alliance of
78 firms Which are allowed to use source code of Android
and develop open standards for mobile devices. Major
group members of OHA group is Google , HTC, Sony, Dell ,
Intel, Samsung, Nvidia , motorola , LG and many more.
7. o Linux version 2.6.x for core system services.
o Provides proven driver model to build the software stack
from scratch or customize it from the available software.
o Provides memory management ,process management
,security model, networking and lot of core OS
infrastructure.
o Android using Java over Linux is a smart move. Both Java
and Linux are proven technology, and provide portability
for mobile application on Android platform.
8. Libc: C standard Library
SSL: Secure socket layer
Surface manager: Responsible for composing different
drawing surfaces onto the screen.
Open GL|ES: 3D image engine
SGL:2D image engine
Hence we can combine 3D & 2D graphics application.
• Media Framework: Core part of the android multimedia
(MPEG4,H264,MP3,AAC…)
• Free type: to render the fonts.
• Webkit: open source browser engine . Helps to work well
on small screen.
• SQLite : Embedded database.
9. Android runtime meets the needs of running
in an embedded environment i.e. where is limited
battery ,limited memory & limited
CPU.
CORE LIBRARIES:
Java programming language
Contains all the collection class,ulities,IO .. All these utilities
which we come across & expected to use.
DALVIK VIRTUAL MACHINE:
Java based license free VM
Optimization for low memory requirements.
DVM runs .dex files (byte code) that converts during built time.
More efficient & run very well on small processors.
Structure are designed to be shared across processes due to which
multiple instance of DVM running on devices at the same time one
in several processes.
10. FUNCTIONS:
1. Activity
UI component typically corresponding to one screen
2. Intent Receiver
Responds to notification or status changes.Can wake
up your process.
3. Service
Performs tasks that runs in a background.
4. Content provider
Enable applications to share data.
11. The top of the Android software
stack are the applications.
1. Native applications
2. Third party applications
12. Feature of android operating
system:
o Open platform
o Has Centralized notification system
o Ease to use
o Network connectivity
o Multitasking
o Security & privacy.
o Memory management
o Power management

18. Developing app in android
The Android SDK provides you the API libraries and developer tools necessary to
build, test, and debug apps for Android.
Android Software Development Kit (Android SDK):
Developer : Google
Written in : Java
Operating System : Cross platform
Available in : English
Type : IDE,SDK
o If you're a new Android developer, we recommend you download the ADT
Bundle to quickly start developing apps. It includes the essential Android SDK
components and a version of the Eclipse IDE with built-in ADT (Android
Developer Tools) to streamline your Android app development.
20. Android vs iPhone
We can set any app as a
default on android
Android just drag and
drop for syncing by
using USB cable on
computer
Google charges for
android developers only
$5
Android OS have Flash
support
It is impossible on
iPhone.Have to click
manually
iPhone syncing only with
iTunes
Apple charges for app
developers $100
While the iPhone only
has html5 support
21. LIMITATIONS:
Hangs a lot
Drain battery
Internet connection is
important
Over heats
22. Future scope & conclusion:
• Future of android is beyond imagination. It has opened a
new stream of technological advancements.
