whitepaper MessageLabs Intelligence: "Do you want spam with that spam?"2006-12-13 01:00:24 MessageLabs
  This report provides the latest threat trends for October 2006, to keep you informed regarding the ongoing fight against viruses, spam and other unwelcome content. October marks the beginning of the spam season this year in the run up to the holiday period, with MessageLabs seeing a sharp increase in levels this month, especially in the past few weeks. As predicted in the September/Q3 MessageLabs Intelligence report, spam is not going away. This increase is largely attributed to the huge rise in botnet activity over the past few weeks. There are two contributing factors compounding this issue...   
whitepaper Balancing the Accuracy and Practicality of Location Tracking in Heterogeneous Mobile Networks2006-12-09 01:00:18 Alcatel-Lucent
  Location tracking has several applications in mobile (cellular or ad hoc) networks, such as location-based routing algorithms and consumer services. It is often difficult to precisely compute the location of a node because of the infrastructure costs and the errors inherent in most tracking techniques. Furthermore, this accuracy differs amongst the nodes based on the scattered availability of equipment such as GPS. This paper focuses on heterogeneous mobile networks, wherein some nodes know their locations more precisely than others and there is a short-range peer-to-peer communication channel such as Bluetooth, 802.11. The authors consider a generalized notion of location called vicinity which is the set of potential locations for a node.

whitepaper Multi-Model Security Associations in Personal Networks2006-11-10 01:00:17 Helsinki University of Technology
  The first connect between unknown devices is one of the most security critical phases of the communication in personal networks. Many existing security configuration mechanisms have been vulnerable against passive eavesdropping or active man-in-the-middle attacks or have been ignored by users as too cumbersome. Consequently, attackers have been able to gain access to users' network and devices. To address these problems, different association models, aiming to be both easy-to-use and secure, have been proposed and, in recent standardization work, adopted. This paper provides comparative survey on association models in current specification efforts. Particularly, the paper will evaluate Bluetooth Simple Connect, Wi-Fi Protected Setup, HomePlugAV protection modes and Wireless USB association models.   
whitepaper WiMAX at the Great Wall: Main Issues and Challenges in the Chinese Market2007-01-13 01:00:33 Research On Asia (ROA) Group
  This white paper introduces some of the main issues surrounding WiMAX in China. There exist uncertainties not only about the technology itself but also about its detailed roll out plan. As operators, equipment makers as well as handset vendors are focusing their efforts on the 3G field, they cannot afford to invest in the R&D and commercialization of WiMAX in China. Despite the obstacles, there is enough room for WiMAX to expand in China as the coverage of fixed telecom service and WiFi is narrow.   
whitepaper Simple Pairing White Paper2006-11-10 01:00:17 Bluetooth
  This whitepaper provides an overview of the association models, cryptographic functions, protocols and algorithms used in the Simple Pairing feature of the Lisbon release of the Bluetooth Core Specification. The primary goal of Simple Pairing is to simplify the pairing process from the point of view of the user. Secondary goals are to maintain or improve the security in Bluetooth wireless technology. Since high levels of security and ease-of-use are often at opposite ends of the spectrum in many technologies and products, much care has been taken by the Core Specification Working Group in the creation of the Simple Pairing proposal to maximize security while minimizing complexity from the end user's point of view.   
whitepaper Serialio.com Case Study: C2F, Inc.2006-07-13 00:50:32 Serialio.com
  C2F, Inc. is a leading retailers source for Fine Art, Craft, Graphic Art, and Drafting Supplies. C2F evaluated the LaserChamp Bluetooth scanner and the Socket SDIO scanner. C2F liked the LaserChamp over the SDIO as it is operated as a true scanner, and not a "Camera" scanner. C2F's business is primarily in the distribution of fine art supplies. Therefore, their inventory consisted of a lot of paintbrushes, pens, and pencils, which were all individually barcoded. C2F found that the LaserChamp more easily scanned these barcodes.   
whitepaper Infrared and Bluetooth: Connecting Things Easier2006-06-16 01:00:27 Kaizen Publishing
  With different electrical devices produced everyday, the problem of connecting things is becoming more and more complex. The system that comprises the computers and other electronic devices makes use of varieties of connecting wires, cables and the likes. These parts communicate trough light beams, lasers, radio signals and infrared. However, the problem with this devices and technologies is often the connection between each component. Thus, most systems are not used to their full extent due to complexities. To simplify things, a solution was created to streamline the process of connections - bluetooth.   
whitepaper MSDN Webcast: Writing Secure Mobile Applications for Windows Mobile Pocket PCs and Smartphones - Level 3002006-06-16 01:00:27 Microsoft
  This webcast will be a high-level look at the security considerations required for building software solutions and the tools, technologies and strategies available to the mobile developer. How does Trustworthy Computing apply to the mobile device space? The webcast explores how to create the most secure device: custom Power on Password, encrypt the file system with a filter, locking down access to IRDA; Bluetooth and expansion cards, key sharing issues, communication security. In the webcast two real world examples are used: UK Police force solution; and Vodafone secure media solution.
