Android OS
Google developed the Android OS open platform. The operating system was designed to give life to mobile devices and phones. The idea that inspires the operating system is to bridge technology companies with mobile companies in the effort of creating an open operating system. Any developer can update the open operating system to improve the product to benefit its users.
The Android OS comes with a software development kit or SDK. This kit is also available from Google. Developers can make use of this kit so that they can come up with new applications that are compatible with the android platform. New applications can then be added to the built in applications with Android OS to the benefit and better experience of users.
Developers can create mobile experiences with the use of the Android OS. Beginning with the standard Application Programming Interface or API within the Android OS is made easy. Developers can access a series of procedure calls that will help them create applications through the use of common Android OS elements.
The Java Programming language facilitates the creation of applications for use on Android operating systems. The applications developed under Android OS can also run on any custom developed virtual machine environment under Linux. Through this, the base of the Android OS platform can operate under a Linux based operating system with a small footprint left on the computer device. The purpose of the virtual machine is to separate applications from the core Android OS from those developed by developers which in turn improves the stability of the device.
The Android OS is fairly new in the market. There are still numerous devices that are not compatible with this operating system. However, continuous alterations are being done to make it more acceptable to many devices. Some companies such as the T-Mobile device and HTC device are looking into using the Android OS.
