Also at some extent the kernel will control the processor to give the ample amount of life time for user.






4. Simpler lock security
In Android L, Google debuts a new feature called Personal Unlocking that aims to help users keep their phones secure, but without overwhelming them with passcodes and other options.

6. Android L with the Chromebook

7. It'll run exclusively on the new, faster ART run-time
This one's been coming for a while, but the experimental ART (Android run-time) software included in Android 4.4 KitKat as a developer preview is taking over full-time in Android L. ART is faster than the old Dalvik compiler thanks to its use of ahead-of-time compilation.



8. Chrome tabs in recent 
The Android version of Google's Chrome browser has been given the Material Design treatment.

Chrome also integrates with the recent apps switcher in Android L, allowing you to easily see all your tabs by pressing the recent apps software key. But Chrome isn't the only app that'll be able to link into the "recents" menu in this way — Android L will include a new API to allow third-party apps to use this functionality.

Besides Samsung, manufacturers like HTC, Sony, LG, and Motorola are confirmed to be onboard with Android for Work. And in other business-related developments, Google also revealed that it's bringing native Office file editing to its Google Docs suite of apps.
