As no one answers, I also see similar questions with other threads. I
want to rephrase the question.

Android defines "Application" as components Activity, Service,
Broadcast/Intent and Content provider;
Android designs the inter-process communication - BINDER;
Usually application components send intents (Broadcast or
PendingIntent::send(), others?) as application messages;

If we look into the Android emulator using shell command "ps", dozen
of Linux processes are present. Each may have one or more Dalvik JAVA
program.

# ps
USER     PID   PPID  VSIZE RSS   WCHAN    PC         NAME
...
root     23    1     70740 18860 c008be9c afe0c464 S zygote
...
system   48    23    169084 22552 ffffffff afe0c33c S system_server
app_10   80    23    112416 19496 ffffffff afe0d434 S
android.process.acore
radio    83    23    106508 16636 ffffffff afe0d434 S
com.android.phone
...

If android.process.acore gets an intent broadcast or PendingInent::send
(), can com.android.phone get the intent? Note they are in two Linux
processes with PID 80 and 83.
