    Platform
    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 boot loader all the way up to the applications.

    Platform
    Operating System(s) Every Android application runs in its own process, with its own instance of the Dalvik virtual machine. The Dalvik VM executes files in the Dalvik Executable (.dex) format Dalvik has been written so that a device can run multiple VMs efficiently.

    Platform
    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. Google services Gmail, Google calendar & Google web search are pre installed & Google is also the default web page for the web browser.
