O que o Android?
- A software platform and operating system for mobile devices; - Based on the Linux kernel; - Developed by Google and later the Open Handset Alliance (OHA) - Allows writing code in the Java and C/C++ language;

Put simply, Android is a combination of three components: - A free, open-source operating system for mobile devices - An open-source development platform for creating mobile applications - Devices, particularly mobile phones, that run the Android operating system and the applications

What is the Open Handset Alliance (OHA)?

- It's a consortium of several companies


- Devoted to advancing open standards for mobile devices - Develop technologies that will significantly lower the cost of developing and distributing mobile devices and services

2. Platform
2.1 Hardware

Android is not a single piece of hardware; it's a complete, end-to-end software platform that can be adapted to work on any number of hardware configurations. Everything is there, from the bootloader all the way up to the applications.

2. Platform
2.2 Operating System(s)

Android uses Linux for its device drivers, memory management, process management, and networking. The next level up contains the Android native libraries. They are all written in C/C++ internally, but youll be calling them through Java interfaces. In this layer you can find the Surface Manager, 2D and 3D graphics, Media codecs, the SQL database (SQLite), and a native web browser engine (WebKit).

2. Platform (4)
2.4 Security

Android is a multi-process system, in which each application (and parts of the system) runs in its own process. Most security between applications and the system is enforced at the process level through standard Linux facilities, such as user and group IDs that are assigned to applications.
