Application Advantage

The ARM architecture and the open nature of the Android platform have given rise to a diverse ecosystem of developer materials, tools and application middleware. Android application developers employ a range of technologies that extensively target the ARM architecture, including:
  • Extensive, reusable existing code and IP
  • A broad range of 3rd party application middleware
    • Flexible language and tool support C/C++, Java, HTML5
    • Android Native Developer Kit for ARM (or for performance sensitive code)

Many of the top applications in today's marketplace directly or indirectly employ native ARM code. These applications exclusively target ARM and include:

  • 3D graphics applications using OpenGL ES 2.0
  • Media players
  • VoIP clients
  • Browsers
  • Games
