Abstract
Google is strongly pushing its open Android platform. With its market share
declining, Symbian has also joined the open OS sector in order to protect its
market. Android announced the Android 1.6 - codenamed Donut Alpha - in July
2009, followed by the Android 2.0 version - codenamed Eclair - at the end of
October. Symbian also plans to launch new versions once every six months,
while its platform is expected to become a fully open platform by mid-2010.
This report compares the platform architecture of Android and Symbian,
analyzes their licensing models, examines the strategies behind their
development, and looks toward future developments of the two platforms.
