Run Linux terminal commands in Android program

I am developing a small app that would synchronize a directory present in my android phone with that of my laptop. I rooted my phone and also installed rsync in that so as to synchronize the directories across my phone and laptop. I checked it manually and everything seems working ( I am able to synchronize phone's directory with my laptop ). Now i would like to do this programmatically. How can i do this? Any ideas?

You can use something like:

Process process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("/system/bin/ls");

for running native commands in Android app.
