  6. MarketShare @2010 Mihail L. Sichitiu

  7. Architecture @2010 Mihail L. Sichitiu

  8. Android S/W Stack - Application • Android provides a set of core applications: • Email Client • SMS Program • Calendar • Maps • Browser • Contacts • Etc • All applications are written using the Java language. @2010 Mihail L. Sichitiu

  9. Android S/W Stack – App Framework • Enabling and simplifying the reuse of components • Developers have full access to the same framework APIs used by the core applications. • Users are allowed to replace components. @2010 Mihail L. Sichitiu

  10. Android S/W Stack – App Framework (Cont) Features @2010 Mihail L. Sichitiu

  11. Android S/W Stack - Libraries Including a set of C/C++ libraries used by components of the Android system Exposed to developers through the Android application framework @2010 Mihail L. Sichitiu

  12. Android S/W Stack - Runtime • Core Libraries • Providing most of the functionality available in the core libraries of the Java language • APIs • Data Structures • Utilities • File Access • Network Access • Graphics • Etc @2010 Mihail L. Sichitiu

  13. Android S/W Stack – Runtime (Cont) • Dalvik Virtual Machine • Providing environment on which every Android application runs • Each Android application runs in its own process, with its own instance of the Dalvik VM. • Dalvik has been written so that a device can run multiple VMs efficiently. • Register-based virtual machine @2010 Mihail L. Sichitiu

  14. Android S/W Stack – Runtime (Cont) • Dalvik Virtual Machine (Cont) • Executing the Dalvik Executable (.dex) format • .dex format is optimized for minimal memory footprint. • Compilation • Relying on the Linux Kernel for: • Threading • Low-level memory management @2010 Mihail L. Sichitiu

  15. Android S/W Stack – Linux Kernel • Relying on Linux Kernel 2.6 for core system services • Memory and Process Management • Network Stack • Driver Model • Security • Providing an abstraction layer between the H/W and the rest of the S/W stack @2010 Mihail L. Sichitiu
