whitepaper Energy-Efficient Graphical User Interface Design2006-01-18 01:01:44
  Mobile computers, such as cell phones and Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs), have dramatically increased in sophistication. At the same time, the desire of consumers for portability limits battery size. As a result, many researchers have targeted hardware and software energy optimization. However, most of these techniques focus on compute-intensive applications, rather than interactive applications, which are dominant in mobile computers. These systems frequently use Graphical User Interfaces (GUIs) to handle human-computer interaction. This paper is the first to explore how GUIs can be designed to improve system energy efficiency.   
whitepaper Tsunami Response2005-10-10 13:44:28
  The Tsunami hit Asia but shook the world.

In the aftermath of the Asian Tsunami, the world rallied to help the affected region in rescue and recovery, including IBM.

The IBM Crisis Response Team was there to help coordinate a responsive, efficient, and reliable relief management effort. IBM's efforts included logistics support and management, victim tracking, and helpline services. Download this white paper to learn more. 		  
whitepaper Experiences in Collection of Handwriting Data for Online Handwriting Recognition in Indic Scripts2005-12-22 01:01:52
  This paper describes initial efforts at Hewlett-Packard Labs, Bangalore, to create datasets of online handwriting in Indic scripts to support research in online handwriting recognition for the Indic scripts. The term "online" here refers to the fact that handwriting is captured as a stream of (x,y) points using an appropriate pen position sensor (often called a digitizer), rather than as a bitmap (image). The paper describes the structure of Indic scripts in brief. It identifies different choices for segmenting characters into simpler shapes that can then be recognized using pattern recognition techniques. The paper discusses these issues in the context of the Tamil script.   
whitepaper Forerunner of Notebooks on Campus, Longwood University Partners With Dell to Provide a Technology-Forward Learning Experience2005-02-01 Dell
  Established more than 150 years ago in Farmville, Virginia, Longwood has a history of providing a curriculum that expands into the world beyond the classroom. Longwood University needed a vendor that could provide reliable systems, a dependable way to maintain and support its technology from a remote location and computer solutions that would work well within limited spaces. The university partnered with Dell to implement a notebook computer program that provided each student with space-saving, flexible mobile technology in addition to establishing a support program that could address issues conveniently on campus.

whitepaper Mobile Agent-Based Services for View Materialization2004-11-04 University of Pittsburgh
  Mobile agents are ideal for mobile computing environments because of their ability to support asynchronous communication and disconnected data processing. This paper presents a prototype set of extensible mobile-agent based services that allow the definition, materialization, maintenance and sharing of views created over remote web-accessible datasources, called ViSMA (Views Supported by Mobile Agents). ViSMA's primary goal is to support the customization and personalization of views by mobile users carrying lightweight devices of various connectivity and resources such as portable computers and PDAs.

whitepaper The Battery Life Challenge - Balancing Performance and Power: Creating the 8-Hour Battery Life to Keep Your Mobile Lifestyle Working All Day2004-11-01 Intel
  Mobile computing has become a reality. Through the Wireless Verification Program, Intel and leading wireless LAN service providers have verified more than 40,000 hotspots around the world, with more cropping up each day. Mobile technology is continually advancing to keep up with the needs of the mobile user. But as Intel worked to make the ideal mobile experience, they found themselves up against an inherent struggle between extending battery life and improving mobile performance. There's no denying the value of longer battery life. To be truly empowered, users want their notebooks to run all day without requiring a recharge. But they also want performance. And performance requires power, which drains the battery.   
whitepaper Bluepipe: A Scalable Architecture for On-the-Spot Digital Forensics2004-09-20 University of New Orleans
  Traditional digital forensics methods are based on the in-depth examination of computer systems in a lab setting. Such methods are however relatively heavyweight and expensive and require significant expertise on part of the investigator. Thus, they cannot be applied on a wider scale and, in particular, they cannot be used as a tool by regular law enforcement officers in their daily work. This paper motivates the need for on-the-spot digital forensics tools that supplement lab methods and discuss the specific user and software engineering requirements for such tools. It presents the Bluepipe architecture for on-the-spot investigation and the Bluepipe remote forensics protocol that is developed and relates them to a set of requirements.
