whitepaper Enabling Notebook Users With Wide-Area Broadband Access2006-01-18 01:01:44
  The benefits and convenience of having wireless broadband connectivity are so compelling that enterprises now desire to provide connectivity to their mobile workforces anytime and anywhere. The global introduction of 3G (third generation) wireless networks satisfies this desire by making it possible for notebook computer users to enjoy wireless broadband connectivity far beyond the coverage areas of WLAN (Wireless Local Area Networks). This paper discusses the market drivers for the embedded 3G notebook, the capabilities offered by today's 3G networks, 3G and WLAN interoperability, the performance advantages of embedding 3G into the notebook, and the benefits of 3G technologies to the enterprise.   
whitepaper Beyond the Datacenter - Backup and Restoration of Desktop PCs and Laptops2007-01-23 01:00:26 Acronis
  In this day and age, most businesses have a backup and restore solution in place for the data center. However, a solution covering only the data center puts organizations at risk of losing a significant amount of data and of incurring significant losses in productivity. According to IDC, 60% of corporate data resides on laptops and desktop PCs. Moreover, an employee without a desktop computer has severely curtailed productivity while IT is restoring the system and just imagine a situation where a virus has infected an entire network. Organizations cannot afford to lose data, much less have downtime. It costs too much.

whitepaper Desktop to Notebook Migration2005-08-30 03:00:02 Dell
  With recent advances in mobile technology, notebook computers have become a viable option for not just field workers or travelers but also for the traditional office worker. With their high capability and low cost, notebooks have the potential to actually replace desktops in agencies across the country. Though the initial cost of a notebook is still greater than a comparable desktop, the resulting increase in productivity can make the switch worthwhile by helping generate a strong return on investment (ROI) and a low total cost of ownership (TCO).   
whitepaper Computer Assisted Visual Interactive Recognition (CAVIAR) Technology2006-01-11 01:01:43
  The distinctive aspect of the CAVIAR technology is a visible, parameterized geometrical model that serves as the human-computer communication channel. Evaluation of CAVIAR flower and face recognition systems shows that their accuracy is much higher than that of the machine alone; their recognition time is much lower than that of the human alone; they can be initialized with a single reference sample per class; and they improve with use. CAVIAR-flower has been ported to stand-alone and to wireless laptop client Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs).
