Gemalto attack Android in court for patent infringement
The complainant, the company specializes in computer security Gemalto, has grievances against Google about "the use of Gemalto's innovation in the Android operating system, the virtual machine Dalvik, and development tools and products shareholders ".
Manufacturers of smartphones are much against them under the spotlight these days. Because the lawsuit would also take to HTC, Motorola and Samsung for the same reasons. Gemalto justifies the criticisms that are made as follows: "the patented technologies involved in this action have been developed in the 90s in Central Research and Development of Texas at Gemalto."
The company claims to hold patents essential to the use of Java as part of an OS via a device with limited resources. She also claims to have discovered and patented the JavaCard, a very popular operating system that is supported by the SIM cards and bank cards (and allows developers to program in Java for these products).
Gemalto accuses Google of using a similar technique to run Java in Android.

Google announced the integration of Gmail in HTML5
During the 2010 Usenix WebApps Boston, Adam Boor, an engineer at Google, has announced that Gmail would incorporate new functionalities for HTML 5.The goal of development teams is to reduce the loading time of pages of online messaging. With HTML 5, it should drop below the second.
The use of CSS3 instead of Document Object Model (FOD) should lead to such a gain of 12% in rendering service pages.
Listed functionalities, the gradual adoption of future standard by the major browsers should also allow the generalization of drag and drop attachments from the desktop to the window messaging. Adam Boor unveiled the feature contrast, drag and drop from the browser to the desktop, is also being investigated but that it would not be achieved through HTML 5 but with a new data transfer protocol internally dubbed "DownloadURL".
Early confirmation Google thinks very hard about HTML 5 (and its application cache) to replace Gears. The Cache application can use the browser's cache to work offline with an application such as Cloud originally hosted. There is such need to be logged in (e) to write text in Google Docs (see also "Google Docs: more features").
Until Gmail operated the proprietary technology of Google Gears. The mail then migrate progressively towards the use of these "super cookies" HTML 5. For the record, Adam de Boor has also revealed that the Gmail program consisted of 443,000 lines of JavaScript. A figure rises to almost 980,000 lines if it adds the comments.
For those who wonder whether the use of Java to build such a service could not have been more appropriate, Adam de Boor said that yes, this technology might have been more optimized but that language was ultimately more "wordy" than JavaScript.
For him, most criticisms to JavaScript does not come from other language itself, but how it is implemented in browsers.
He concluded that the most important issue was ultimately not much choice of Java or JavaScript but how to produce the best possible code based on the language used.
No timetable or roadmap, however, have been given concerning the integration of HTML 5 in Gmail.
