Virtual turbulent time has come, office desktop virtualization, data center virtualization, virtualization began to rise in the mobile phone has entered our field of vision.

Recently, mobile phones and broadband Internet devices embedded virtualization software provider Open Kernel Labs (referred to as the OK Labs) announced a OK L4 Microvisor based on the company’s software and services platform solution – Secure IT Mobile. OK Labs CEO Steve Subar, president and chief told reporters: “Whether police, laptop battery,fire or other government officials, is a growing need for secure communication can be independent but also for personal communication devices.
Previously, such devices only in TV and movies before they can see, the real cost of security hardware and software development mobile phone is very expensive. Now, through the OK Labs Secure IT Mobile solutions company, truly safe to use smart phones will become a reality. “
In fact, the higher the security level of mobile communications in the past mostly through private design and implementation. Because a single platform in the smart phone, the implementation supports both the communication and application of general, but also support encryption and application of a very difficult call. Most of the programs is the use of the traditional separation of the hardware platform to achieve this goal.
OK Labs virtualization proposed program, its unique virtualization software installed in the mobile device underlying system to allow various operating systems and applications through virtualization technology, the independent running on the same mobile device, they are isolated from each other, mutual non-communication. As a result, no additional hardware, in a standard smart phone can also be on different operating systems and application to be separated. Based on this, there needs to be targeted to achieve the communication and application of encryption.
Application virtualization technology mobile phone, not only can achieve strong isolation, build a more secure communication channel, but also have more sophisticated security features. Currently, OK Labs and McAfee have to cooperate to solve the bottleneck of mobile phone virus killing. Its related technology has begun to be applied to government workers and for national security personnel in the mobile communication solutions. Some wireless OEM vendors, third party integrators and government contractors have begun to generate interest in this.
OK Labs, and Motorola has reached a strategic partnership to jointly introduced a technology based on the mass-market smart phone Evoke. In the past need to support dual dual-processor system hardware model compared to, OK Labs program reduces the cost of $ 46.

Nokia’s market share reached a new low stick to Symbian as the main reason behind

Comments: Comments Off
Published on: November 16, 2010
Nokia’s market share to new lows. Data show that in the third quarter, worldwide mobile phone sales by leaps and bounds, which was an increase of 35%, but Nokia has once again frustrated dominant mobile phone market share fell below 30%, a record low. Of them, which is Nokia’s smart phone market failure are not unrelated. In response, Nokia has also had to react. It is reported that a few days ago, Nokia released for Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync for the deployment of its new smart phone.
Nokia’s market share to new lows, leading gradually pulled down the old throne
Recently, the market research firm Gartner released its third quarter 2010 mobile phone data. Data show that the global mobile phone sales in 2009 compared to the third quarter of 2010 increased 35% year on year, Asus A7U battery,of which the performance of smart phones is particularly prominent, up to 81 million total sales, accounting for 19.3% of worldwide mobile phone sales.
In sales by leaps and bounds, while the pattern of global mobile phone market share has quietly changed. Have Zhanju Nokia handset sales top for many years is being pulled down the throne, and it has the same fate, as well as Samsung, LG and other well-known brands.
Data show that the third quarter of this year, once the “leading” Nokia market share dropped to 28.2%, below 30%, 36.7% higher than last year’s 8.6% decline, marking the lowest level since 1999. Meanwhile, Samsung and LG’s market share slipped to 17.2%, respectively, and 6.6%.
Nokia of Finland was founded in 1865, can be described as “the father of candy bar phone.” All along, the Nokia to “impact, long standby time, the quality and stability,” the reputation of leading mobile phone market. But perhaps it is caused by years of supremacy superiority, that the Nokia paralysis of the nerve, lost the sharp market insight. In recent years, Nokia introduced a new product each, to go through more than a year of research and development and testing, focusing on product quality is certainly laudable, but the pace is too slow to develop in a rapidly changing market also make it increasingly difficult for a to seize fleeting opportunities. Nokia mobile phone has long been the Empire seems to be building came crashing down, the former dominance has gradually been challenged.
Frustrated the development of the smart phone market, stick to Symbian as the main reason behind
In the global mobile phone sales for the third consecutive quarter of double-digit year on year growth environment, the former “leader” of the year for Nokia, but “here is bad.” The reason is mainly due to the development of intelligent machines and emerging brands Raiders frustrated low-end machines for which market share eroded.
Past two years, smart mobile phone has become the focus of the user, but also a global mobile phone shipments in the fastest growing market segment of the market. Earlier, Nokia Zengyi nearly 40% market share for many years dominated the mobile phone market in the smart phone market share of 40% or even much higher. But this “a dominant” situation is with Apple, An induced, BlackBerry, etc. The rapid rise of new forces, and gradually subsided.
Year, the Nokia N8 effort to launch the market response was flat, with the same period despite the introduction of the Apple iPhone4 the same is not perfect, but “hot” to was out of stock. Phone systems to Google Android operating system, represented by its open attitude, the quest for Motorola, HTC, and domestic brands, including Huawei, ZTE, including a large number of fans. Earlier this year, has been an important partner as Nokia, Samsung and Sony Ericsson also announced to give up on Nokia’s Symbian operating system product key, turn into the arms of Android.
Gartner recently released in the third quarter of 2010 data, Nokia’s Symbian-based phone system sales reached 10 million though, but the sales market is currently well below the pace of expansion. Overall, the use of Symbian smartphones have been sold down to 36.6%, while Google’s Android 3.5% from a year ago, rose to 25.5%. From 1998 to become a member of the Nokia Symbian has come to a need to change the time.
In this case, Nokia itself is aware of it. November 9, Nokia officials said that starting from April 2011 took back from the Symbian Foundation, Symbian operating system control. Prior to this, Nokia also announced a new developer program, from this day forward, to develop applications for Nokia mobile phone, simply based on the uniqueness of QT application framework, no longer as usual to do for multiple platforms is not compatible development.
Nokia interpret this move by the industry as “ready to follow the example of ‘Apple model’”, but recently, after its Symbian system will introduce a new machine X3-02 news, again so that it becomes wavering stance.
In addition, Nokia also announced collaboration with Intel R & D Meego system, which also have expectations of the industry, but in the short term, Nokia is also difficult to look to turn things around by his.
The rapid development of emerging brands, Nokia eating into the traditional territory of experience
Meanwhile, the high-end smartphone market decline also is spreading to low-end market, as Nokia’s “traditional territory,” the feature phone market is also being eroded brand new mobile phone.
Gartner data showed third quarter, did not enter the top ten ranked mobile phone manufacturers and by sales of 50 million last year to grow to 138 million. In this regard, Asus A42-A6 battery,Gartner analyst Carolina – Milanneixi said, “Nokia affected than other mobile phone manufacturers should be large, because of its low-end market, a higher degree of trust.”
Prior to that, even in the smart phone market with Apple, BlackBerry, etc. amongst the strongest teams in the “close combat” in the miscues, but because of its low-end mobile phone market in the good word of mouth, Nokia’s market share has been far ahead. But now, this leading edge is gradually reduced, so that no brand is the brand new mobile phones are catching up.
With the trend of the market is increasingly clear, the focus of non-brand mobile phone manufacturers also are turning to smart phones. Currently, the use of the MediaTek chip manufacturers such as “one-chip solution,” manufacturers use low cost and faster speed of introduction of mobile phones, smart phones “high end” label is removed. This presented a situation in which the same price, the local brands until the function of non-brand mobile phones is much higher than the Nokia function machine, especially Huawei, ZTE and other domestic brands but also provide good after-sales service, which makes a lot of low-end user in mind the balance began to tilt. Gartner’s analysis of the third quarter report shows that Nokia shares fell to a new low in the same time, ZTE, Huawei has rounded out the top 10 mobile phone market share.
In summary, the high-low-end market threatened Qi, Symbian hopeless situation, Meeego faces an uncertain future, the Nokia development woeful. On the other hand, the current situation is still far from a “dead”, after all, “thin dead camel than Ma”, even in market share “in the history of minimum” of the moment, Nokia low-end market share is also up to 58% so many brands of reach. Can hold the low-end market, change, innovation, and again to the high-end smart phones launched in the EU, will determine the survival of Nokia.

Speed the development of multimedia broadcasting in Japan

Comments: Comments Off
Published on: November 15, 2010
In recent years, the Japanese mobile communications network can be described as alarming the speed of development, dominant in the 3G network after its 4G network also ushered in rapid development.

According to Japanese media reports, from 29 August 2008 12 August 2010 period, UQ Communications, a WiMAX base stations had reached 10,000, the population coverage rate of 90%, while, Asus A42-A6 battery,in the end of May 2010 its the number of users is about 20 million, is expected to reach the end of 2010 800 000

It is reported that Japanese operators currently using the mobile broadband wireless access technology is the IEEE 802.16e, IEEE 802.16m technologies for R & D is also underway, is expected by 2012, its network will reach the maximum downlink transmission speed of 330Mbit / s. At present, NTT docomo company is in the Tokyo area on the 4G network commercial trial operation, will soon be official business, in addition, Wi-Fi in Japan in recent years has been the rapid development, which are multimedia broadcasting in Japan offers the birth of this new media network basis.
In addition, business applications, Japan’s mobile network video, smart phones and other electronic reader terminal development speed very quickly, which in turn allows multimedia broadcasting service in Japan’s development of the market demand.
Standards battle
Benefit from the analog TV broadcasting to digital television broadcasting transfer to July 2011, Japan will spare them some of the spectrum for mobile phones, car navigation, video game digital broadcasting and other services charges.
For a long time, Japan’s two major mobile operators in the selection of multimedia broadcasting technology debating. On the one hand, KDDI hopes to introduce MediaFLO in the U.S. mobile broadband applications, on the other hand, NTT docomo but supports the Japanese digital TV standard now established ISDB-Tmm technology.
In view KDDI, Japan to benefit from the introduction of MediaFLO, because based on this technology, the relevant departments in the United States established a powerful mobile network-FLO TV, users can watch ABC, CNN, FOX and MTV and other TV shows . KDDI believes MediaFLO technology development support through the phone, the Japanese mobile phone manufacturers can also find more opportunities in overseas, thus reversing the long-standing Japanese mobile phone manufacturers in overseas defeated situation.
In contrast, by the Itochu Corporation, funded by “multi-media playback Planning Associates LLC,” from March 5, 2008, the Tokyo Tower will begin using radio waves to send experiments on the media player service “ISDB-Tmm” site test. It is reported that the Media Player service, will further improve the existing “1seg” technology, through the Download type and Stream-based communication, so movies, music, sports, news, e-books and other rich multimedia information to high-speed, high quality sent to mobile phones and other devices. In addition, the field test will be on the basis of technology and services necessary to verify the model tests, while the standard for multimedia broadcasting services, “ISDB-Tmm” publicity.
Local winner
Recently, the Japanese Ministry of Internal Affairs has finally planned multimedia broadcasting service on the two carriers made camp Reply, NTT docomo won.
NTT docomo camp by Fuji, Asahi and Itochu and other television stations, electronic communications and other companies a total of 10. Camp set up by the joint venture, through the use of digital broadcast television technology, the Japanese national standard, and use the existing base stations, Tokyo and other places and other facilities, greatly reducing costs. The camp is KDDI’s technology as the standard by Qualcomm, NTT docomo its investment program than twice, which is NTT docomo reason the winning camp.
Starting from June 2010, Asus A7U battery,the Japanese government held several public hearings, representatives of the parties have stated their views. MediaFlo technical standards in the United States because there FLO TV operational issues such as financial difficulties, and ultimately decided not to adopt Japan, KDDI camp immediately defeated.

In the September 8, 2010, NTT docomo company officially announced that starting from early 2012 launch for mobile terminals such as video and e-reader multimedia broadcasting services.
Multimedia Broadcasting warming
The so-called multimedia broadcasting, writing to the plate like iPad terminals, mobile phones and other mobile devices, while sending large amounts of data in the system.
Multimedia broadcasting and mobile communications are now the services provided by different lines, and now mobile communications services provided on the circuit is sent separately to each terminal is limited to the corresponding data, and multimedia broadcast simultaneously to each mobile terminal is sending large volumes of data, Therefore, the multimedia broadcasting business needs more bandwidth.
Ministry of Internal Affairs of multimedia broadcasting services, ruled in favor of development of the company’s decision NTT docomo, Japan’s third largest mobile communications companies – Softbank position immediately, the company also developed with NTT docomo the same standard of multimedia broadcasting terminal. In addition, a number of new smart phones and other terminals have enabled the rapid communication networks to increase the amount of data, so that part of the mobile radio network streaming data, will help reduce the burden of mobile communication network, which is multi-media communications company attaches importance to the reason for the development of the broadcasting industry .
Previously, multi-media broadcasting service has been applied in the United States, and the pace of development in Japan will be further accelerated. With the analog TV broadcasting gradually from the historical stage, a band of their free multimedia broadcasting services will encourage the birth of this new media. Countries all over the world from the 3G mobile network to accelerate the transition to 4G, and Wi-Fi networks are also becoming increasingly popular, Dell Latitude E6400 battery,Link: MediaFLO is Qualcomm for mobile phones, personal digital assistants and other portable equipment, radio data transmission technology. FLO in MediaFLO is means “forward link” (Forward Link Only), meaning the vehicle from the base station to use a single path of data transmission. MediaFLO system is a mobile network from the existing segmented piece of spectrum, for example, MediaFLO USA’s spectrum is used before the 55 TV channels for extremely high frequency (UHF TV Channel 55) in the 716 ~ 722MHz.

ISDB (Integrated Services Digital Broadcasting) is a comprehensive digital broadcasting, which is based on the Japanese Broadcasting Association (NHK) as the central development, Japan and South America used in digital broadcasting technology standard, ISDB-S for satellite digital broadcasting standard, ISDB-T is divided into ISDB-TSB (Digital Speech Standard), ISDB-C (Digital Video Broadcasting), etc., from the ISDB-T into ISDB-Tmm, which means that the multimedia.

The app gap is BlackBerry’s biggest problem

Published on: August 30, 2010

The achievement of the iPhone and Google’s machine platform spotlights the real “killer app” in the sphere of the smartphone marketplace: Having apps.

That’s a truth likely to haunt seek in the sphere of suggestion the same as it tries to generate buyers and drone in favor of its fresh BlackBerry Torch, which hits food subsequently week.

By the side of Apple, there’s more or less 250,000 apps in favor of with the aim of. By the side of BlackBerry’s App humankind, there’s recently 8,000.

Why does with the aim of carry some weight? Exhibit A: Palm.

Like seek in the sphere of suggestion does at present, Palm just the once dominated the corporate marketplace, and whilst Palm released the Pre smartphone in the sphere of June 2009, analysts proverb a shot in favor of it to reclaim its lost glory. The Pre was aimed to be present the at the outset real “iPhone killer.” Reviewers heaped praise on Palm’s WebOS operating logic in favor of its beautiful user interface, its take pressure off of depletion and its seamless capability to multitask applications. The phone took to your house CNET’s top “Best in the sphere of Show” prize by the side of with the aim of year’s Consumer Electronics reveal, and the people’s picking bestow.

But in the sphere of the 14 months since the Pre’s unveiling, Palm has sold recently under 2 million smartphones. By contrast, Apple (AAPL, affluence 500) sold with the aim of many iPhone 4s the very at the outset daylight hours the phone was to be had.

Single of the key differences concerning the iPhone and the Pre — and the final nail in the sphere of Palm’s casket — is the capability in favor of users to personalize their phones. Someplace Apple has a quarter-million applications to be had in favor of download, by the side of Palm, there’s lone 3,500. The company in effect threw in the sphere of the towel and sold itself in favor of scrap in the sphere of April to Hewlett-Packard (HPQ, affluence 500), which paid $1.2 billion in favor of a venture with the aim of just the once had a marketplace cap of other than $50 billion.

“Ultimately, it’s really tough to succeed with rebuff apps in the sphere of the app put in storage,” says Todd Christy, president of Pyxis cell, a cell purpose platform developer.

It’s not recently sheer records with the aim of carry some weight. Apple’s iPhone App put in storage is the industry’s undisputed leader in the sphere of app quality the same as well the same as quantity. Apps maintain to pass a strict — and controversial — congeal of protocols to apparent Apple’s famous quality-control values in favor of its put in storage.

That’s not to say all iPhone apps are handy — a notable amount of them are in point of fact pretty futile. But the superlative developers progress to apps in favor of Apple’s iOS platform or else creating apps in favor of other platforms, for the reason that iPhone and iPod tap users are other engaged with their policy. IPhone users typically download nine fresh apps apiece month, and iPod tap users download 12, according to AdMob. With the aim of compares to an be more or less of nine apiece month on machine and recently six on Palm’s WebOS.

Even other importantly in favor of developers, iPhone users are other willing to give in favor of apps than users of other policy: Twice the same as many iPhone users recurrently download paid apps, compared to machine and WebOS users, according to AdMob.

“Other apps food are not there a apparent and comfortable way in favor of developers to progress to money,” says Carl Howe, analyst by the side of Yankee set. “At the conclusion of the daylight hours, that’s what did you say? They’re in the sphere of venture to execute.”

Lone single other purpose platform has made known secret language of being able to catch up to Apple: Google’s (GOOG, affluence 500) open-source machine. The machine Marketplace has more or less 100,000 apps, and many quality apps with the aim of were exclusively to be had on the iPhone are at present making their way against machine phones. A little killer apps, like the Swype baby grand and Google Goggles, are even exclusive to machine.

“The sequence in favor of consumer-facing apps is iPhone at the outset and machine succeeding,” Christy says. “But if you’re vacant in favor of the mountain marketplace, at present you’re vacant to poverty to be present on machine too.”

Single main blockage in favor of app developers is with the aim of putting their programs on various platforms income rewriting with the aim of code multiple time. Near are a little companies, like Christy’s Pyxis, with the aim of allow developers to create apps in favor of BlackBerry, the iPhone and machine all by the side of just the once.

But second-tier smartphone platforms are working intense to progress to it easier in favor of developers to progress to apps in favor of their phones. They realize it’s a carry some weight of survival.

Seek in the sphere of Motion’s (RIMM) BlackBerry is steadily down its imposing share of the smartphone marketplace, while Microsoft’s (MSFT, affluence 500) Windows Marketplace in favor of cell so massively botched to pull towards you app developers with the aim of the company scrapped the complete platform. It on track from abrasion with Windows Phone 7, due dazed soon this time.
