Actually Dalvik isn't really involved here except for executing code as it
normally does. This is implemented by the framework and ker
Well, as you'll read in the docs, it's during onSaveInstanceState()
that you save the state that will be restored when your app is
restarted due being killed by the OS.
The saving you do in onPause() is the normal kind of saving you do;

Yes, Android can shut down processes if there is not enough memory. I

Yes, that is exactly what it means. From the user's perspective,
nothing has happened: when they come back to app #1, it has been
restarted, has restored its state and things look exactly like they
did when the user was there before.
If you want to notify the user somehow, you would do that in you

When you open the first app again, it will be relaunched. But not all
previously opened apps must restarted, as they may be still in paused
state.
