- 3. What Is Android? • It is an open source software platform and operating system for mobile devices • Based on the Linux kernel • Developed by Google and later on led by Open Handset Alliance (OHA) • Allows writing managed code in the Java language • Android has its own virtual machine i.e. DVM (Dalvik Virtual Machine),which is used for executing the android application. • Founded by Andy Rubin, Rich Mines, Nick Sears and Chris White in 2003 and later on purchased by google in 2005.
- 4. OHA (Open Handset Alliance) •A software platform and operating system for mobile devices • The Open Handset Alliance (OHA) is a business alliance of many firms whose goal is to develop open standards for mobile devices, promote innovation in mobile phones and provide a better experience for consumers at a lower cost.
- 6. ANDROID ARCHITECTURE The software stack is split into Four Layers: • The application layer • The application framework • The libraries and runtime • The kernel
- 8. • LINUX KERNEL: This layer is core of android architecture. It provides service like power management, memory management, security etc. It helps in software or hardware binding for better communication. • NATIVE LIBRARIES: Android has its own libraries, which is written in C/C++. These libraries cannot be accessed directly. With the help of application framework, we can access these libraries. There are many libraries like web libraries to access web browsers, libraries for android and video formats etc. • ANDROID RUN TIME: The Android Runtime was designed specifically for Android to meet the needs of running in an embedded environment where you have limited battery, limited memory, limited CPU.
- 9. • APPLICATON FRAMEWORK: This is all written in a Java programming language and the application framework is the toolkit that all applications use. • APPLICATION LAYER: All the applications like camera, Google maps, browser, sms, calendars, contacts are native applications. It includes the home application the contacts application , the browser, and apps.
- 10. Software Development Development requirements: •1.Java •2.Android SDK •3.Eclipse IDE
- 11. ALUMNI APPLICATION • The objective of this application is to allow old and new students of a university or college to communicate with each other. This allows students to know about each other and their current activities. • The application allows students to register and then search the data based on different criteria.
- 12. Existing System • Many institutions, colleges and universities maintain the information manually about present and past students. This does not allow efficient data management and retrieval process. A student willing to get information about others has to approach the college and obtain the details. Often the information may not be available and misleading.
- 13. PROPOSED SYSTEM • The application allows students to register and then search the data based on different criteria. Also it has the benefit of having a centralized database and up to date information. A user can easily obtain information about other registered users.
- 14. SNAPSHOTS
- 15. CONCLUSION • The Android app ecosystem is rich and diverse and their usage is changing people’s lives. Apps alone aren’t going to make the world a better place, but the people developing and using them are working to share information, teach, collaborate, and grow, and that will make the world a better place. It already has. • Android Alumni app is one such attempt to bring the passed out students of the college closer to their juniors. It helps them to connect, get information and guidance for their career.
