12. The software stack is split into Four Layers:-
• The application layer
• The application framework
• The libraries and runtime
• The kernel
ANDROID ARCHITECTURE

14. •The architecture is based on the Linux2.6
kernel.
• This layer is core of android architecture. It
provides service like power management,
memory management, security etc.
• It helps in software or hardware binding for
better communication.
LINUX KERNEL

15. • Android has its own libraries, which is written in C/C++. These libraries cannot
be accessed directly. With the help of application framework, we can access these
libraries. There are many libraries like web libraries to access web browsers,
libraries for android and video formats etc.
NATIVE LIBRARIES

16. •This is in blue, meaning that it's written in the Java programming
language.
•The core library contains all of the collection classes, utilities, IO,
all the utilities and tools that you’ve come to expected to use.
Android Run Time

17. •This is all written in a Java programming language and the application framework is
the toolkit that all applications use.
•These applications include the ones that come with a phone like the home
applications, or the phone application.
•It includes applications written by Google, and it includes apps that will be written by
you.
•So, all apps use the same framework and the same APIs.
Application Framework

18. APPLICATION LAYER
•the final layer on top is Applications.
•It includes the home application the contacts application , the browser,
and apps.
•It is the most upper layer in android architecture.
•All the applications like camera, Google maps, browser , SMS ,calendars
,contacts are native applications. These applications works with end user
with the help of application framework to operate.
