Hello
The Android™ operating system is an open platform developed by Google® to power mobile devices and handsets. The idea behind the platform is to align technology companies with mobile companies to produce an open operating system that can be updated by any developer to improve the product for its users.

The development of the Android™ operating system takes place through the use of a software development kit (SDK) provided by Google®. Developers can use this kit to create applications that work with the Android™ platform to bring other applications in addition to those included with the Android™ operating system itself. The SDK includes an emulator that will help developers test their applications on the Android™ operating system. The Android™ operating system is also built under the concept that each application is just as good as the applications that are included.

Thanks

Hello Friends,

Android was built from the ground-up to enable developers to create compelling mobile applications that take full advantage of all a handset has to offer. It was built to be truly open. For example, an application can call upon any of the phone's core functionality such as making calls, sending text messages, or using the camera, allowing developers to create richer and more cohesive experiences for users. Android is built on the open Linux Kernel. Furthermore, it utilizes a custom virtual machine that was designed to optimize memory and hardware resources in a mobile environment. Android is open source; it can be liberally extended to incorporate new cutting edge technologies as they emerge. The platform will continue to evolve as the developer community works together to build innovative mobile applications.

Thanks
