Seen that? – Intel Shows it Can Be Done
Intel Shows it Can Be Done at The Smart PDA
Many offices still rely on wires, despite the savings a wireless network brings. There's no need to install and maintain cables, and it's no hassle to connect new devices. Maybe it's because of security concerns. Berkley University showed that Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is a misnomer, vulnerable to snooping. But Intel has shown way back in February 2005 that a completely wireless and secure office is possible. Even phone calls are [...] Read More
Milton Keynes WiMax Test Signifies Continued Intel Success at The Smart PDA
(This image was taken from www.netprop.co.uk. Note the clean grid-like layout, indicative of Milton Keynes origins as a planned city) US-based Sprint nextel announced about two weeks ago a partnership with Intel to upgrade to WiMax. Now across the Atlantic, the British are doing the same, installing WiMax in the town of Milton Keynes. Intel is trying to push WiMax as a 4G replacement for today's mobile networks. Again, Intel is a [...] Read More
Sprint’s Collaboration with Intel Promises Better Mobile Service at The Smart PDA
Looks like Intel has gotten a huge boost for its efforts to push WiMax as the new wireless standard. Sprint Nextel has announced plans to use that technology to take its cellular networks to the next level. The company aims to be the first to implement fourth generation (4G) mobile technologies in the US. 4G promises faster wireless speeds that can rival that of cable. Other partners involved in this effort [...] Read More
Five puzzle pieces for wireless independence at Tech Without Wires
"Tech without wires" means to me a person who has learned how to work anywhere regardless as to whether she/he has a physical office at home or at a physical work location. The reason we have the word "tech" in this term is because you, as tech without wires, solve the puzzle of working independently through employing technical strategies or technical solutions that makes it possible to be independent of [...] Read More
Now there is a greater need for simulation than ever at Supplychainer
Eric Joiner of Freight Dawg provided a nice comment for my previous post "Can simulation benefit supply chain organizations?" which I brought here without any change: To my mind there is now a greater need for simulation than ever. Im not talking about the ergonomic conference room simulation conducted by supply chain engineers prior to an implementation. Today, with long supply chains, and increased security risks, I think some more military [...] Read More
