What Google Wanted Sun To Do

[T]hrow away their standard license, because it isnt what were asking for, and they needed to develop a new license that was specifically what were asking for. So what were asking them to do is basically change their business model.

Andy Rubin Co-Founder of Android April 24, 2012 Trial Tr. 1606:8-17; 1618:8-15; 1596:15-20

And we would come in and we would basically say, hey, why dont you open source your technology? Why dont you make it available for free to the world as part of our platform? And, in return, well pay you a little bit of money to do that, so you guys can go and create some derivative of your business model.

The Android APIs Have The Same Structure, Sequence, and Arrangement As The Java APIs

For the 37 accused API packages, Android and Java 2 SE version 5.0 have substantially the same selection, arrangement, and structure of API elements.
Googles Admission April 23, 2012 Trial Tr. 1337:21-24

Q. And the Structure, Sequence and Organization of the API elements is virtually identical across those 37 packages, correct? A. That's right.

Googles Expert Admits That Google Copied Java Structure, Sequence, And Organization Into Android Core Library
Q. And with respect to the packages and the structure of the packages, are there any similarities between the two platforms? A. No. The Package names, Class names, and Method names for the 37 packages are the same; otherwise, there are no they are different.
Owen Astrachan, Ph.D. Google Technical Expert April 27, 2012 Trial Tr. 2184:22-2185:9

Q. And do you have an opinion as to whether there are any reasons why those things are the same, the structure, the organization, and the names? A. As I've mentioned before, that structure of the names of the classes, packages, and methods needs to be the same so that the code will work on both platforms, be compatible, inter-operate, so that I can call the methods. Those need to be the same.

Those are the Method signatures that are the same in both platforms. Q. As to the 37 packages? A. That's correct. Q. What would happen if you ripped those lines out of Android? A.

Googles Expert Admits Google Could Have Chosen Not To Infringe


Q. Couldn't the Android developers have written their own Application Programming Interfaces for the overwhelming majority of the 37 packages that are in dispute? A. If you're asking is it possible to write a different API, then it would be possible to write a different API. Q. And couldn't you write a different API that would provide the same basic functionality in terms of what services it provided? A. Yeah, I think it would be possible to provide an API that performed similar functionality; not maybe exactly the same but similar. Q. Well, they wrote most of their own core libraries, according to you; right, sir? A. Yes, that's correct.

Eric Schmidt Google Chairman and Former CEO April 24, 2012 Trial Tr. 1458:12-16

The vast majority of Google's revenue at the time and today comes from search revenue. And so the primary reason to have something like Android is that people will do more searches, and then we'll get more money as a result. And that's how we, essentially, pay for the strategy of Android.

Android Is Hugely Profitable For Google


Q. And, in fact, I think you -- you said that the revenue that you received as a result of the additional search revenue generated by Android paid for Android and, I think you said, and a whole bunch more.

The aesthetics of an API design are part of this noble and rewarding craft. Correct? A. Yes. Generally, an API that displays good aesthetics will be easy to use. It's like a car's dashboard.

Android Blocks Oracles Java Opportunities


Q. And what were the reasons for your decision not to go forward with a Java-based smart phone?
A. Well, you know, when you enter a market, especially a competitive market like smart phone platforms, it's important to be first with a compelling advantage. Our compelling advantage would have been Java. But Android had already been released. Android was already out on millions of devices. So Google's Android-Java clone had basically foreclosed the market from us.

A CipherInputStream is composed of an InputStream and a Cipher so that read() methods return data that are read in from the underlying InputStream but have been additionally processed by the Cipher. The Cipher must be fully initialized before being used by a CipherInputStream. For example, if the Cipher is initialized for decryption, the CipherInputStream will attempt to read in data and decrypt them, before returning the decrypted data.

This class wraps an InputStream and a cipher so that read() methods return data that are read from the underlying InputStream and processed by the cipher.

Google Knew Harmony Was Not Licensed


From: Bob Lee To: Eric Schmidt Sent: May 30, 2008

Sun puts field-of-use restrictions in the Java SE TCK licenses which prohibit Java SE implementations from running on anything but a desktop or server. These restrictions prevent Apache Harmony from independently implementing Java SE (Harmony cant put those restrictions on their own users and still Apache license the code) not to mention Android (though thats water under the bridge at this point).

Schmidt responded: Im not surprised by Suns position.
