Started Service Essentials

In general terms, a started Service is usually more autonomous. To start a Service, a client creates a small package of parameters, an Intent, and then uses the Intent as the argument to the Context method, startService. A Service receives the Intent asynchronously as an argument to its onStartCommand method. It performs the task represented by the Intent, frequently without any further interaction with the client. Like a method with void return type, started Services frequently do not return an explicit result. Figure 6.1 illustrates an Activity starting a Service, to perform an asynchronous task.
