whitepaper Extend SMS Messaging to the Desktop Using Windows2008-10-22 JupiterMedia
  SMS messaging is one of the most common forms of communication. People send SMS messages everywhere - on the train, crossing the road, and even driving! While most SMS messages are sent on the go, a huge portion of them are sent when stationary - while people are at their desks, working. Though users are accustomed to composing messages using T9 inputs (or using a virtual keyboard, etc.), nothing beats using the keyboard one has for the computer. Therefore, one would ideally prefer to send SMS messages from the comfort of their own keyboard. This paper shows how to write applications to allow SMS messages to be sent from within the Windows computer.

whitepaper Addressing Video Processing Challenges with the IP Mulitimedia Subsystem2008-09-01 Dialogic
  The market place is demanding video content at a rapid rate. For mobile handset users, the challenge of having video on their handsets has been hampered by the handsets' limited bandwidth access and processing power to convert between the many formats available. This white paper discusses how the IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) network can be used to convert video content so that it is accessible to any user, and how network-based processing techniques could be applied to a wide variety of applications.

whitepaper Home Care Clinicians Use Synchronized Mobile Solution to Coordinate Patient Care2008-08-01 Microsoft
  Home care agencies play a vital role in the healthcare industry, with an increasing number of patients receiving treatment at home rather than in the hospital. Not only is home care more economical than hospitalization, but studies have shown that patients recover more quickly when cared for in the comfort of their own homes. One of the challenges faced by home healthcare agencies is the ability to exchange patient information between home care providers (nurses, therapists, and home health aides) and the agency office. Dallas, Texas - based Homecare Homebase developed a dynamic wireless solution using Windows Mobile software and devices manufactured by HTC, a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner.

whitepaper A Load-Aware Routing Metric for Wireless Mesh Networks2008-06-22 Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
  Routing metrics play a critical role in Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs). Several metrics have already been proposed but none of them can effectively capture both local traffic load and hidden node issues. This paper proposes a load and interference-aware routing metric for wireless mesh networks, named Contention Window Based (CWB) metric. The metric assigns weights to individual links based on both channel utilization and the average Contention Window used on these links. The individual link weights are combined into path metric that accounts for load balancing and interference between links that use the same channel. Thus the CWB metric helps the routing protocol to balance traffic and improve network capacity by avoiding routing traffic through congested areas.

whitepaper Mobility Services Platform (MSP) Using MSP in Wide Area Networks (Carriers)2008-06-01 Motorola
  Wireless Data as a commercial carrier offering has adopted various wireless standards and has evolved over time with technology improvements in what are called "Generations", or "G" (i.e. 1G, 2G, etc). With each technology improvement introduces higher data rates, additional features, and network enhancements. In the United States the largest wireless carriers for GSM are Cingular (now AT&T) and T-Mobile. GSM data services are defined as Edge, GPRS, UMTS and HSDPA. CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) is a digital technology developed by Qualcomm and delivered by various wireless carriers (mostly in North America).

whitepaper Cisco Secure Wireless Plant: Security and Quality of Service for Industrial Environments2008-05-01 Cisco Systems
  The process industries, from oil and gas producers and mining companies to manufacturers of chemicals, foods, and beverages, are exploring new ways to improve production processes and automate them to raise plant efficiency. Though each has its own challenges and business drivers, industrialists also have many needs and trends in common. To improve the functionality and efficiency of industrial monitoring and control systems, therefore, process industries are looking toward Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) to provide detailed, accurate data collection from previously hard-to-reach, unaffordable areas. Cisco and Dust Networks are leading this trend with the Secure Wireless Plant solution, which combines industry-leading networking and field device development to deliver a comprehensive wireless solution for the industrial environment.
