Android is client Java
0 likes665 views
Android uses a Java runtime environment that is optimized for mobile devices. Tablets and mobile devices are revolutionizing IT by providing an easier and more collaborative way for users to work and communicate. Android's Java runtime is well-suited for mobile applications due to its efficiency and security features like process isolation. While Android will continue growing in popularity, its Java runtime can potentially run separately from the Android operating system on other platforms if desired.
Android is client Java
- 4. Android is client Java Can't we all just get along?
- 5. Tablet devices, and mobile devices in general, are revolutionizing IT
- 6. It is practical to treat Android's Java runtime environment as separate from Android
- 7. When we say “Android is client Java” that is a more-general statement than, say, “Objective-C is a mainstream language”
- 8. Client Java was... AWT Swing SWT JavaFX Qt bindings Etc.
- 9. Step1: “Write once, run everywhere” Step 2: Convince everyone this is a good idea Step 3: ?????
- 10. Step1: Make a really appropriate mobile managed language runtime Step 2: Watch ISVs write 200,000+ apps
- 11. I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and doggone it, people like me!
- 12. The recipe for modern smartphone OSs: Linux or other embedded UNIX-like OS Managed language runtime Full-featured browser
- 13. Examples: iOS Android Windows Phone
- 14. Partial: Meego – more like Linux-goes-mobile Bada – C++ app runtime and APIs
- 15. Android is client Java
- 16. Real multi-processing – multiple VM instances Low memory overhead per instance Fast launch
- 17. Share-able data heap – copy-on-write Save/restore component and process state
- 18. Security benefits from true multi-processing Process per app UID per publisher Effective sandboxing of multiple publishers
- 19. VM efficiency for mobile Smaller bytecode Faster bytecode
- 20. Mobile-tuned JIT compiler Much less CPU/power- intensive than previous JIT compilers Compiles much less code Relies on efficiency of non- compiled code
- 21. Android is a really good, mature client Java, and far ahead of other managed language runtimes for mobile devices
- 22. So it is reasonable to want the Android application runtion on another platform, but can you get it without diluting the advantages with virtualization, emulation, hypervizors, etc?
- 24. Why?
- 26. Here comes another guy prophesying the end of the PC era
- 27. Plummeting! Source: Hitslink
- 28. Why believe it this time?
- 29. The dominance of PCs in IT is artificial PCs were... Personal – you own it A revolution Empowering to individuals
- 30. Some people need PCs Some people need this stove
- 33. So why did all the alternatives fail?
- 34. The economics of PC manufacturing crushed all challengers Tablets are “large smartphones” - they inherit the economics of smartphones
- 35. Tablets and touch make everything easier Cheaper to support Tablets can support legacy apps through desktop virtualization Tablets are a great delivery vehicle for Web apps
- 36. A new revolution in enterprise collaboration and communication
- 41. To sum up
- 42. Java is a good language Android Java is the best managed language runtime for mobile devices
- 43. Tablets are an IT revolution Tablets will become the basis of a new collaborative work and communications paradigm Java can be a big part of this revolution
- 44. There will be lots of Android devices, but... You can treat Android as a runtime separately from Android OS, if you need or want to
