The Power of the Pen | 2007-12-01 | Fujitsu |
| More than at any other time in the history of personal computing solutions, pen computing today provides performance and flexibility that is opening doors for all types of industries and users.
What used to be strictly a vertical technology, used primarily in healthcare and insurance, is becoming horizontal and finding a home in education, sales force automation, and a host of other applications. This transition is no coincidence. As more and more workers become mobile, the ease of use and accuracy provided by the pen is taking the industry by storm. This white paper discusses why so many businesses today are deciding to take advantage of pen computing, its advantages over standard notebook computers, the industries that are best suited to pen computing, the types of form-factors and other choices available, and how pen-enabled computers can benefit all types of users and the types of work they do.

Analysis of the PASR Standard and Its Usability in Handheld Operating Systems Such as Linux | 2007-09-25 | Intel |
| With companies now producing Low Power DRAM for handhelds, a new feature was developed called Partial Array Self Refresh (PASR). This feature enables the DRAM to retain state in only part of memory, thus further reducing the self-refresh power. If handheld operating systems could use this feature, they could potentially add hours of battery life. This has not happened because the PASR footprint provided cannot be easily integrated into established OS memory management schemes. The PASR power savings below assumes that the handheld device consumes a total of 4mW in sleep mode with the entire DRAM self-refreshed. | |||

PocketDrive: A System for Mobile Control of Desktop PC and Its Applications Using PDAs | 2007-08-13 | Bilkent University |
| Off late, consumer electronic devices and PCs are inevitable parts of the daily life. Controlling those devices remotely is an important aspect of the technology. One has already universal remote control devices for controlling consumer electronic devices. Similarly, the user may control the desktop and laptop PCs and their applications remotely via portable and smaller computers like PDAs and Pocket PCs. This paper presents a system and its architecture that enable a wireless-enabled PDA to control a PC and its applications remotely over a 802.11 or Bluetooth link. With such a system running on a PDA, a user can start, run and control PC applications from any location that is reachable via 802.11 link.

Portable, But Not Mobile: A Study of Wireless Laptops in the Home | 2007-04-24 | Springer Science+Business Media |
| This paper reports a qualitative study of the use of physical space and wireless laptops by ten United States households. Although wireless laptops purportedly offer the opportunity and affordances to go "Anywhere in the home," laptops were generally used in a small set of particular places rather than moving fluidly through the home: wireless laptops were portable, but not mobile per se. The paper presents factors that influence laptop movement in the home. It also presents a model of people's use of space in the home, identifying a small set of favored places of long-term use and a larger set of kinetic places used for specific tasks.
