Muthu, I kept hearing that Android is all about Intents. But that
seemed to simplistic. I wanted to dig deeper.
If you start with the fact that Android is very loosely-coupled and
you hook that up with Intents, then these two concepts
that appear to define Android become clearer. Everything is loosely-
coupled to the degree that Intents keep the system together and
even Intents are abstracted. But Why? Because there will be complexity
in mobile and other systems as things are built up with apps.
There has to be an intelligence to handle the complexity of the
buildup. The implicit intent can be more than just fetch a photo. So
the implicit intent is a real enabler of AI. AI for the purpose of
handling all the complexity of mobile (camera,, accelerometer, etc.)
with different
apps mishing and meshing.
