Google 1 What Google Wanted Sun To Do • “[T]hrow away their standard license, because it isn’t what we’re asking for, and they needed to develop a new license that was specifically what we’re asking for.” • “So what we’re asking them to do is basically change their business model.” Andy Rubin Co-Founder of Android • “And we would come in and we would basically say, hey, why April 24, 2012 Trial Tr. 1606:8-17; don’t you open source your technology? Why don’t you make 1618:8-15; 1596:15-20 it available for free to the world as part of our platform? And, in return, we’ll pay you a little bit of money to do that, so you guys can go and create some derivative of your business model.” 1 Java Materials Are Copyrighted TX 475, 450, 451, 452, 453, 454, 455, 460, 461, 462, 463, 464, 476, 509, 513, 518, 520, 521, 523, 524, 526, 598, 599, 601, 602, 603, 659 2 What Google Copied JAVA ANDROID Google copied Java structure, Question 1.A sequence, and organization into Android core library Google copied Java API Question 2 documentation into Android API documentation Google copied from Java code Question 3 into Android code 3 4 The Android APIs Have The Same Structure, Sequence, and Arrangement As The Java APIs “For the 37 accused Q.

And with respect to the packages and the structure of the packages, are there any similarities between the two platforms? A. No. The Package names, Class names, and Method names for the 37 packages are the same; otherwise, there are no – they are different. Owen Astrachan, Ph.D. Google Technical Expert Q. And do you have an opinion as to whether there are any April 27, 2012 Trial Tr. 2184:22-2185:9 reasons why those things are the same, the structure, the organization, and the names? A. As I've mentioned before, that structure of the names of the classes, packages, and methods needs to be the same so that the code will work on both platforms, be compatible, inter-operate, so that I can call the methods.

Now, you said that the -- I think you were talking about 7,000 lines of code as just a small piece of Android. Do you recall that testimony? A. Yes, I do. Q. And this is the 7,000 lines of code that word-for-word, symbol-for-symbol, is identical in the Android core libraries Owen Astrachan, Ph.D. as compared with the Java core libraries, correct? Google Technical Expert A. Yes. Those are the Method signatures that are the same in April 27, 2012 both platforms. Trial Tr. 2212:3-19 Q. As to the 37 packages? A. That's correct. Q. What would happen if you ripped those lines out of Android? A. Well, for the purposes of the Android core libraries, those are part of it, so they need to be there for Android to work as it's been designed. 12 Google’s Expert Admits Google Could Have Chosen Not To Infringe Q. Couldn't the Android developers have written their own Application Programming Interfaces for the overwhelming majority of the 37 packages that are in dispute? A. If you're asking is it possible to write a different API, then it would be possible to write a different API. Q. And couldn't you write a different API that would provide the same basic functionality in terms of what services it provided? Owen Astrachan, Ph.D. A. Yeah, I think it would be possible to provide an API that Google Technical Expert performed similar functionality; not maybe exactly the same but April 27, 2012 Trial Tr. 2212:25-2213:10, similar. 2213:17-19 Q.

  • History and Evolution of the Android OS
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Springer - Publisher Connector CHAPTER 1 History and Evolution of the Android OS I’m going to destroy Android, because it’s a stolen product. I’m willing to go thermonuclear war on this. —Steve Jobs, Apple Inc. Android, Inc. started with a clear mission by its creators. According to Andy Rubin, one of Android’s founders, Android Inc. was to develop “smarter mobile devices that are more aware of its owner’s location and preferences.” Rubin further stated, “If people are smart, that information starts getting aggregated into consumer products.” The year was 2003 and the location was Palo Alto, California. This was the year Android was born. While Android, Inc. started operations secretly, today the entire world knows about Android. It is no secret that Android is an operating system (OS) for modern day smartphones, tablets, and soon-to-be laptops, but what exactly does that mean? What did Android used to look like? How has it gotten where it is today? All of these questions and more will be answered in this brief chapter. Origins Android first appeared on the technology radar in 2005 when Google, the multibillion- dollar technology company, purchased Android, Inc. At the time, not much was known about Android and what Google intended on doing with it. Information was sparse until 2007, when Google announced the world’s first truly open platform for mobile devices. The First Distribution of Android On November 5, 2007, a press release from the Open Handset Alliance set the stage for the future of the Android platform.

"People have neglected hardware for years, decades. The rest of the venture business is focused on software, on service." Essential wanted to make a timeless, high-powered phone, according to Rubin. Its bezel-less and logo- less design is reinforced by titanium parts, stronger than the industry standard aluminum parts, and a ceramic exterior. It has no buttons in its front display but has a fingerprint scanner on the back. The company is also making accessories, like an attachable 360-degree camera, and the Phone will work with products from its competition, such as the Apple Homekit. Essential, the new smartphone company founded by Android operating system creator Andy Rubin, "How do you build technology that consumers are is planning to ship its first pre-ordered flagship willing to invest in?" asked Rubin.

It was women-led at a company that, despite years of lip-service to inclusion, only has 31 percent women employees.2 And it was massive—more than twenty thousand workers participated (figure 8.1). Why did workers at one of the most powerful companies on the planet take to the streets? One week earlier, the New York Times broke a story about the $90 million exit package that Andy Rubin, the creator of Google’s Android mobile operating system, had received after he was accused of sexual misconduct (and after an internal investigation had found the claim to be credible).3 The story mentioned two other executives accused of sexual misconduct whom Google had similarly protected. As journalists Daisuke Wakabayashi and Katie Benner wrote, “In settling on terms favorable to two of the men, Google protected its own interests.” Evidently, Rubin’s package had been paid out in installments of $2 million per month over the course of four years. His final payment was scheduled for later that month. As soon as the New York Times article was published, additional stories of discrimination faced by women, as well as men and nonbinary people, began pouring out on company email lists and chat channels and in face-to-face forums.

  • Google's Management Change and the Enterprise
    STEPHEN E ARNOLD APRIL 20, 2011 Google’s Management Change and the Enterprise Google completed its management shift in April 2011 with several bold moves. The story of founder Larry Page’s move to the pilot’s seat appeared in most news, financial, and consumer communication channels. American business executives have a status similar to that accorded film and rock and roll stars. An aspect of the changes implemented in his first week on the job as the top Googler included some surprising, and potentially far reaching shifts in the $30 billion search and advertising giant. First, a number of executive shifts took place. Jonathan Rosenberg, the senior vice president of product management, left the company on the day Mr. Page officially assumed Mr. Schmidt’s duties. Mr. Rosenberg, a bright and engaging professional, was not a technologist’s technologist. I would characterize Mr. Rosenberg as a manager and a sales professional. The rumor that Mr. Rosenberg and Mr. Schmidt would write a book about their experiences at Google surfaced and then disappeared. The ideas was intriguing and reinforced the Charlie Sheen-magnetism senior business executives engender in the post-crash US. The echo from the door snicking shut had not faded when Mr. Page announced a shift in the top management of the company. For example, Sundar Pichai http://www.thechromesource.com/sundar-pichai- chrome-and-chrome-os-vp-being-courted-by-twitter/ (who has been at Google since 2004 and was allegedly recruited by Twitter) took over Chrome, Google’s Web browser and possible mobile device operating system alternative to Android.

  • Android (Operating System) 10.1 Introduction: Android Is a Mobile
    Page 1 of 9 Android (operating system) 10.1 Introduction: Android is a mobile operating system (OS) based on the Linux kernel and currently developed by Google. With a user interface based on direct manipulation, Android is designed primarily for touchscreen mobile devices such as smartphones and tablet computers, with specialized user interfaces for televisions (Android TV), cars (Android Auto), and wrist watches (Android Wear). The OS uses touch inputs that loosely correspond to real-world actions, like swiping, tapping, pinching, and reverse pinching to manipulate on-screen objects, and a virtual keyboard. Despite being primarily designed for touchscreen input, it also has been used in game consoles, digital cameras, and other electronics. Android is the most popular mobile OS. As of 2013, Android devices sell more than Windows, iOS, and Mac OS devices combined,[14][15][16][17] with sales in 2012, 2013 and 2014[18] close to the installed base of all PCs.[19] As of July 2013 the Google Play store has had over 1 million Android apps published, and over 50 billion apps downloaded.[20] A developer survey conducted in April–May 2013 found that 71% of mobile developers develop for Android.[21] At Google I/O 2014, the company revealed that there were over 1 billion active monthly Android users (that have been active for 30 days), up from 538 million in June 2013.[22] Android's source code is released by Google under open source licenses, although most Android devices ultimately ship with a combination of open source and proprietary software.[3]
