CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION OF ANDROID


Android is a Linux-based operating system designed primarily for
touchscreen mobile devices such as smartphones and tablet computers. Initially
developed by Android, Inc., which Google backed financially and later bought in
2005, Android was unveiled in 2007 along with the founding of the Open Handset
Alliance: a consortium of hardware, software, and telecommunication companies
devoted to advancing open standards for mobile devices. The first
Androidpowered phone was sold in October 2008. Android is open source and
Google releases the code under the Apache License. This open source code and
permissive licensing allows the software to be freely modified and distributed by
device manufacturers, wireless carriers and enthusiast developers. Additionally,
Android has a large community of developers writing applications ("apps") that
extend the functionality of devices, written primarily in a customized version of
the Java programming language.
In October 2012, there were approximately 700,000 apps available for
Android, and the estimated number of applications downloaded from Google
Play, Android's primary app store, was 25 billion. These factors have contributed
towards making Android the world's most widely used smartphone platform,
overtaking Symbian in the fourth quarter of 2010, and the software of choice for
technology companies who require a low-cost, customizable, lightweight
operating system for high tech devices without developing one from scratch. As a
result, despite being primarily designed for phones and tablets, it has seen
additional applications on televisions, games consoles, digital cameras and other
electronics. Android's open nature has further encouraged a large community of
developers and enthusiasts to use the open source code as a foundation for
community-driven projects, which add new features for advanced users or bring
Android to devices which were officially released running other operating
systems.

Android had a worldwide smartphone market share of 75% during the
third quarter of 2012, with 750 million devices activated in total and 1.5 million
activations per day. The operating system's success has made it a target for patent
litigation as part of the so-called "smartphone wars" between technology
companies. As of May 2013, a total of 900 million Android devices have been
activated and 48 billion apps have been installed from the Google Play store.

adanya arti Add atau penambahan.
- Preposition = kata depan yaitu kata yang ditempatkan/ digunakan
sebelum kata benda (nouns) atau kata ganti (pronouns)
untuk menunjukkan hubungan dengan bagian-bagian
kalimat yang lain.
- Conjunctions = kata penghubung yang berfungsi untuk menghubungkan

CHAPTER III
CONCLUSION


Android is a Linux-based operating system designed primarily for
touchscreen mobile devices such as smartphones and tablet computers. Initially
developed by Android, Inc., which Google backed financially and later bought in
2005, Android was unveiled in 2007 along with the founding of the Open Handset
Alliance: a consortium of hardware, software, and telecommunication companies
devoted to advancing open standards for mobile devices.
Android's user interface is based on direct manipulation, using touch
inputs that loosely correspond to realworld actions, like swiping, tapping,
pinching and reverse pinching to manipulate on-screen objects. The response to
user input is designed to be immediate and provides a fluid touch interface, often
using the vibration capabilities of the device to provide haptic feedback to the
user.
