Three-fold Increase in Android Apps Performance
An Android software developer has launched a replacement virtual engine which it says will significantly increase application performance. Myriad Group's Dalvik Turbo virtual machine replaces the standard Dalvik engine powering applications on the Android platform.
Dalvik Turbo is said to increase application execution speed by up to three times - without a significant increase in the memory requirements of the device.
"The Android ecosystem continues to gain momentum with a regular flow of new devices being launched by operators and OEMs globally," said Simon Wilkinson, CEO of Myriad Group. "By bringing together Myriad's heritage in virtual machines and Linux platforms we have been able to significantly improve the performance of Android handsets, leading to a greatly enhanced user experience with richer applications and games and improved responsiveness."
Dalvik Turbo leverages Myriad's virtual machine expertise to provide this significant increase in performance while retaining full compatibility with existing applications. The technology replaces the existing Dalvik virtual machine in Android and boasts rapid integration, with Myriad engineers demonstrating installation on an untested target device within minutes. Dalvik Turbo also supports a range of processors including those based on ARM, Intel Atom and MIPS Architectures.
