This presentation was presented by me and my friend during last year of our Graduation, in the State Level Paper Presentation Competition, in which, we ranked 1st. This presentation focuses on the basic concepts of Android Technology,its Architecture and Examples. The core objective of this presentation is to create awareness about Android among the audience.

2.  Android is an open source operating system, created by Google
specifically for use on mobile devices (cell phones and tablets)
 Android is the software stack for mobile devices that includes …..
1) An operating system
2) Middleware
3) Key Applications
 Android can be programmed in C/C++ but most app development is done
in Java as Java gives access to C Libraries via JNI (JNI = Java Native Interface)
 Supports Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and 3G and 4G networking

10.  Examples of Android Devices :-
Android powered Microwave Oven Galaxy Tablet 10

11.  Built using Java and new SDK libraries
 Java code compiled into Dalvik byte code (.dex)
 Optimized for mobile devices (better memory management,
battery utilization, etc.)
 Dalvik VM runs .dex files
 By default, each app is run in its own Linux process
 Process started when app’s code needs to be executed
 Threads can be started to handle time-consuming operations
 Each process has its own Dalvik VM
 By default, each app is assigned unique Linux ID
 Permissions are set so app’s files are only visible to that app

16.  Paid apps in Android Market, various other markets
 Free, ad-supported apps in Android Market
1) Ad networks (Google Ad Mob, Quattro Wireless)
2) Sell your own ads
 Services to other developers
1) Ex. Skyhook Wireless
(http://www.skyhookwireless.com/)
 Contests (Android Developer Challenge)
 Selling products from within your app

18.  Scope of Android :-
 Augmented Campus Reality
camera + maps + compass = heads up info
 Games
multi-player (Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, cell)
location-based (scavenger hunt)
 Custom overlays for maps
weather, traffic, friends
 Web scraping
news filters
sport scores
news eliminators
 Distributed computing
10,000 phones all donating their idle time
tiny terminal (phone) + fast cpu/network (server)
 Shared whiteboard
