As bada is a new operating system, this question is asked by many since the bada launch. Many have the doubt about the working of bada. Besides if you are a bada developer it is most important to know the basic structure and working of bada.
So how does bada work? I’ll make it simple. To understand bada we need to know the layers the make bada working. Samsung bada is made of 4 layers. A kernel layer, a device layer, a service layer and a framework layer.
Kernel Layer
Kernel is the backbone of the operating system. A kernel connects the application software to the hardware of a computer. The kernel of bada is based on real time OS or Linux kernel. The kernel is determined by the hardware configuration of the device.
Device Layer
The device layer of bada handles the UI(user interface) of the device. The unique UI of bada is made up of this device layer. It manages security, graphics, telephony, multimedia of the device using bada.
Service Layer
Service layer makes it possible to run applications on bada. It handles messaging, contact management, web service etc. It is an integral part of bada.
Framework Layer
Framework of bada can export standard open API’s ( Application Programming Interface) in C++. Basically it means with this layer you can create innovative applications on bada platform. This layer enables bada to grow continuously.
So that’s it. These four layers help bada to work properly. Any malfunction in any layer can cause problems. You can also read What’s new in bada- bada features. Hope you have understood the basics of bada.
