whitepaper Real Time Destination Prediction Based on Efficient Routes2006-05-02 05:20:03
  This paper presents a novel method for predicting the location of a driver's destination during the drive. Such a prediction can be used to help decide which information to automatically present to the driver, depending on where the driver is going. The prediction is based on the common intuition that drivers tend to chose efficient routes. The paper quantifies this preference for efficiency probabilistically based on a database of driving trips one gathered with GPS receivers. The paper shows how to use this probability along with a map of driving times to compute the probability of any candidate destination.   
whitepaper NTT's Shaky Approach to Data Transfer Targets a Solved Problem2006-03-21 01:33:13 Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
  Nippon Telegraph & Telephone Corp (NTT), in Tokyo, has a different take on the idea: instead of using people as power sources, use them as 10-megabit-per-second communication links to each other. NTT is working to perfect the networking technology it calls RedTacton ("Red" for warmth, "T" for touch, and "acton" for action), which could ultimately let people transfer data to each other's handhelds by means of a handshake or a slap on the back. While NTT has already made prototype devices available to potential partners for inspection, they doesn't yet have commercial-grade RedTacton devices customized for specific uses or any applications that aren't already served by RF technologies such as Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.

whitepaper Mobile Computing to Facilitate Interaction in Lectures and Meetings2006-01-11 01:01:43
  The Campus Mobile project explored how PDAs and innovative interfaces can improve interaction during lectures and in small meetings. These mobile computers (small PCs or PDAs) are nomad mediators that provide the link between the public space and the user's private space. A lecturer uses an augmented whiteboard to annotate her presentation, while the slides and annotations are broadcast in real time to the students' PDAs. The students can also annotate the presentation. They can then replay the lecture at their leisure. The second scenario, called 'REGROUP', is a face-to face meeting between a small number of participants.   
whitepaper Palm & Treo Hacks: Turn Your PDA Into a Flashlight2005-10-14 O'Reilly Media
  Palm's backlight can be turned on to act as a basic flashlight. However, the user will need to disable the power-off feature if he or she needs to use the flashlight for more than a few minutes (either that or one will have to keep turning it back on). This works nicely on a Treo with the lighted keyboard, but it also works fine on a regular Palm device. There are a couple of simple programs that do this for the user.

whitepaper Mobile Search and It's Implications for Search Engine Marketing2006-01-11 01:01:43
  Modern marketing strategy has closely followed the development of three "screens": television, the personal computer and now, mobile phones. Search engine marketing and optimization have helped marketers capitalize on personal computers. Now, those same marketers hope to apply similar strategies to mobile devices-mobile phones, personal data assistants (PDA) and BlackBerries (combinations of mobile phones and PDAs).
