Myriad has taken a cross platform application that will work on different devices. This application will enable android apps to run on non Android platform devices.
Company said,”Myriad Alien Dalvik brings Android applications to non-Android devices, allowing OEMs, operators and application stores to leverage the Android eco-system across a much wider range of mobile devices. Android applications run unmodified and with no loss of performance on non- Android platforms.”
This idea is really helpful. Running an Android app using a virtual machine on any phone can help non Android users to enjoy Android apps. As we can see that there are a lot of applcaitons available on Android market which are not available for other platforms. The company also said that the prformance differnce of the app on various platforms will be almost zero.
If you are thinking why company is focusing on Android apps to run on virtual machines, because they are made that way by default. So Android apps are a natural fit for the company and its product.
Myriad is working with handset makers to fit the product at device level for better performance.
