whitepaper Advanced Browser Development - Developing Browser Push Applications2006-09-06 01:00:12 Research In Motion
  A push application is designed to simplify and enhance the distribution of corporate data to mobile employees. Users do not have to request or download the data, because the push application delivers the information as it becomes available. This paper describes the BlackBerry architecture from Research In Motion (RIM) and how the BlackBerry Browser, the BlackBerry Enterprise Server, and the BlackBerry Mobile Data System (BlackBerry MDS) support push applications. The paper explains the different types of push mechanisms and demonstrates how push functionality works in web-based applications. It also provides a code sample for a push application and presents a case study for a push application.   
whitepaper Managing Wireless Data Transport in the BlackBerry Solutions V4.0 - Part 1: Understanding TCP and HTTP Transport Options for Java Applications for BlackBerry2006-09-06 01:00:12 Research In Motion
  The BlackBerry solution provides numerous options for enabling Java applications for BlackBerry to transport data over the wireless network, allowing the applications to connect to servers residing on the Internet or the intranet. The BlackBerry solution also provides the necessary interfaces to enable server-side applications to proactively push data to BlackBerry Wireless Handhelds in a secure and reliable manner. This paper provides an overview of the BlackBerry v4.0 wireless platform architecture and the primary options that are available for wireless transport to and from a Java application for BlackBerry. It compares and contrasts the standard IP-based methods of wireless data transport, including HTTP and TCP, through a variety of different wireless gateways.   
whitepaper Managing Wireless Data Transport in the BlackBerry Solutions V4.0 - Part 2: Understanding Alternative Transport Options for Java Applications for BlackBerry2006-09-06 01:00:12 Research In Motion
  The BlackBerry solution provides a number of options to enable Java applications for BlackBerry to transport data over the wireless network, connecting to servers residing on the Internet or the corporate intranet, or communicating directly with other BlackBerry Wireless Handhelds. Most Java applications for BlackBerry use standard HTTP or TCP protocols to send and receive information over the wireless network. These modes of transport provide a simple and standard means for communicating with Internet and intranet-based server applications. This paper provides an overview of the alternative wireless transport protocols and how Java applications for BlackBerry can use them.   
whitepaper Topic Overview: Enterprise Mobility2006-03-22 11:32:20
  Forrester's enterprise mobility research focuses on how mobile and wireless technologies affect businesses: how they deploy their employees, how they communicate with their customers, and how they use their assets. Through mobile technologies, companies have the potential to catalyze changes ranging from incremental productivity improvements to a radical redefinition of business processes. Some specific coverage areas include mobile policy and strategy definition; mobile application architectures; laptops, notebooks, and handheld computers; wireless email; mobile operating systems; wireless LANs (WLANs); and third-generation (3G) wireless services.   
whitepaper Smart Client Architectures for the Mobile Developer2006-04-14 12:16:34
  Mobile solutions can be built in many different ways, used on many different devices, operate over many different networks, and integrate with many different back-end systems. The task of building a mobile solution can often be daunting given the many technology choices and implementation approaches.

The paper explores the differences between smart-client and thin-client mobile architectures. It then examines the details of common smart-client architectures, including what type of back-end systems they integrate with, the types of devices they support, how data is managed within the architecture, and development languages that can be used to build the application.
  
whitepaper Boots Ups Stockfile Accuracy 10 Percent, Reduces Workload 15-20 Percent With Symbol Solutions2006-03-01 Motorola
  Boots employs around 70,000 people and sells its products in more than 130 countries. Boots has to look closely at all other operating costs to ensure it can compete effectively, and, as is the case with every retailer, there were costs associated with managing the inventory; in the form of non customer-facing time and stock investment. Boots also wanted to eliminate stock picking and counting mistakes. After a thorough evaluation, Boots decided to implement a new mobile store management solution based on the Symbol PPT8846 handheld device. A custom software application for the Symbol PPT8846 handheld device was developed, running on Microsoft Windows Mobile 2003 software for Pocket PCs.

whitepaper PGP Support Package: Release 4.12006-09-06 01:00:12 Research In Motion
  The PGP Support Package is designed to provide an OpenPGP (Request for Comments (RFC) 2440) implementation on the BlackBerry device. The implementation enables users who are already sending and receiving PGP protected messages using their desktop email program to send and receive PGP protected messages using their BlackBerry devices. The PGP Support Package is designed to work with PGP Universal version 2.0.2, with either PGP Universal Satellite version 2.0.2 or PGP Desktop Professional version 9.0.2. The PGP Support Package includes tools for obtaining PGP keys and transferring them to the BlackBerry device. This means that messages that are encrypted using PGP can also be decrypted and read on the BlackBerry device.   
whitepaper S/MIME Support Package: Release 4.02006-09-06 01:00:12 Research In Motion
  The S/MIME Support Package is designed to enable BlackBerry device users who are already sending and receiving Secure Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (S/MIME) protected messages using their desktop email program to send and receive S/MIME protected messages using their BlackBerry devices. The S/MIME Support Package is designed to work with S/MIME email clients including Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft Outlook Express, and with popular Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) components including Netscape, Entrust Authority Security Manager version 5 and later, and Microsoft Certificate Authorities (CAs). This paper describes the S/MIME Support Package, which is designed to offer extended security features for BlackBerry devices.

whitepaper Using Context and Similarity for Face and Location Identification2006-05-24 01:00:27 University of California
  This paper describes a new approach to the automatic detection of human faces and places depicted in photographs taken on cameraphones. Cameraphones offer a unique opportunity to pursue new approaches to media analysis and management: namely to combine the analysis of automatically gathered contextual metadata with media content analysis to fundamentally improve image content recognition and retrieval. In this paper, new methods for determining image similarity are combined with analysis of automatically acquired contextual metadata to substantially improve the performance of face and place recognition algorithms.
