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. | |||

China Post Logistics Fully Automates Its Delivery Process | 2007-07-25 | Motorola |
| China Post Logistics Co. Ltd (CNPL) was established on 18 Jan 2003. It is a subsidiary of China State Post Bureau and has a registered capital of RMB 200 million. CNPL had great difficulty obtaining business data in a timely manner at each point of the logistics process. The former business model required each transaction to be manually keyed into the information system. As a result, the logistical information could not be recorded in a timely manner. In order to enhance service quality and boost competitiveness, CNPL's goal was to provide door-to-door services for its customers. CNPL decided to automate their information processing using Motorola's MC3000 mobile computers. The solution uses barcode on each item and a detailed worksheet printed with barcodes to record logistics information.
