7The Shape of Things NOW!
- Siemens SL45
- A cellular phone with voice command, voice
dialing, intelligent text for short messages - An MP3 player headset
- A digital voice recorder
- Supports Mobile Internet with a built-in WAP
Browser - Can store
- 45 minutes of music
- 5 hours of voice notes
- Unlimited addresses/phone numbers
8After the PC
- Not about gadgets or access technologies
- About services and applications
- Increasing, not decreasing, diversity
- Enabled by computing embedded in communications
fabric
9Internet vs. Telephone Net
- Strengths
- Intelligence at ends
- Decentralized control
- Operates over heterogeneous access technologies
- Weaknesses
- No differential service
- Variable performance delay
- New functions difficult to add since end nodes
must be upgraded - No trusted infrastructure
- Strengths
- No end-point intelligence
- Heterogeneous devices
- Excellent voice performance
- Weaknesses
- Achieves performance by overallocating resources
- Difficult to add new services to Intelligent
Network due to complex call model - Expensive approach for reliability

11The ARPANet
- Paul Baran
- RAND Corp, early 1960s
- Communications networks that would survive a
major enemy attack - ARPANet Research vehicle for Resource Sharing
Computer Networks - 2 September 1969 UCLA first node on the ARPANet
- December 1969 4 nodes connected by phone lines

28The iMode Story
- 24 million Internet-capable cellular phone
subscribers (7/01) - Charge by data volume, not connect time
- NTTDoCoMo becomes worlds largest ISP!
- 4500 test 3G subscribers (5/01)
- Most frequent used apps
- Voice text messaging
- Animated cartoons special ringing tones
- Computer games
- Music/image distribution
- Japanese teenage girls driving the competitive
development of new services!

30A New Kind of Internet
31The Post-PC Era
- Not about specific Information Appliances
- Services spanning access networks, to achieve
high performance/manage end device diversity - Builds on the New Internet
- Opening up of the connectivity cloud
- Embedding computing in the communications fabric
- Pervasive support for intelligent services
- Near you for faster access, more personalized,
more localized - Scalable to deal with surges in demand as needed
