Abstract

We define an operational semantics for a large part of the Androidplatform, encompassing the Dalvik bytecode but also, and more importantly, the inter-component communication mechanism usedinside Android applications. This semantics is intended to providea formal basis for the development of static analyses that considerthe complex flow of information exposed by the cooperating components of Android applications.
