Need for Mobility Driving Todays Computing
Landscape

• Desktop transition to Notebooks
• Ultra-thin, ultra-light, ultra-long battery-life
• Wireless and faster wire-line data access
• Pervasive pagers and cell phones for immediate
  interaction
• Wap, Epoch, Limited Web Access
• Palm and other handheld computers have become
  more powerful
• Migration of traditional desktop applications
• Much more than just email

11
Why handheld computers make sense
Challenges of the desktop computer?

• Cost Cost

• Size Size

• Simplicity Simplicity

12
The Value of Handhelds for Government

• Palm Handhelds are used for many important
  applications
• Performing inspections
• Real-time data access
• Field-based data collection
• Important data is protected with multiple layers
  of FIPS 140-2 security
• Wireless (instant) access to remote databases
  (i.e. NLETS, Choicepoint, HIPPA compliant medical
  records, and more)
• Information sharing and information access within
  and among agencies is critical.
• Palm Handhelds offer ease of use, a simple and
  intuitive interface, and powerful productivity
  features.

The Fun Stuff

• Applications

24
Nevada Army National Guard
Mobile patient data collection speeds
communication with hospital staff by 60

• The critical data
• Vital signs, treatment and medication
• Initial diagnoses
• Medication interactions
• The users
• Nevada Army National Guards Air Ambulance Unit
  medics
• Where its used
• Aboard the units UH-60 Blackhawk helicopters as
  injured soldiers and civilians are transported to
  hospitals
• The payoff
• 60 faster method of communicating with hospital
  staff
• Consolidates volumes of reference materials
• Eliminates error-prone paper forms and data entry

25
US Navy SPAWAR
Palm handheld solutions from Mobile Computing
Group help ensure mission readiness

• The critical data
• Recording of grades and deficiencies from
  inspections of equipment, personnel, supplies,
  etc.
• The users
• Zone inspectors use the Zone Inspection
  Deficiency Listing System, one of many
  applications from the Mobile Computing Group
• Where its used
• Tasks often performed in cramped submarines,
  aircrafts, and ships, without access to power
  outlets
• The payoff
• Solution saves approximately 30 minutes per
  inspection
• Secure, direct data synchronization with Navy
  database eliminates lost data, improves data
  accuracy, enhances trends analysis

26
National Naval Medical Center
Mobile solution streamlines fire inspection
processes, transfers results to central database

• The critical data
• Violations resulting from fire deficiency
  inspections
• Statistics on fire code violations throughout
  medical center
• The users
• Fire inspectors from Medical Centers Fire
  Protection Prevention Department and Bethesda
  Fire Department
• Where its used
• Inpatient and outpatient facilities 880,000
  square foot campus
• The payoff
• Automates inspection process, captures violations
  data, correlates to national and local codes
  stored on Palm handheld, issues notices
• Solution speeds reporting and analysis of
  inspection data, improving compliance and safety
  of medical facility

27
US Navy Landing Signal Officers
Critical data captured on carrier flight decks.

• The critical data
• Evaluate and record pilot performance - how well
  each pilot approaches and lands the plane on the
  carriers flight deck
• The users
• Landing Signal Officers aboard US Navy aircraft
  carriers
• The payoff
• Saves over 100 man-hours a month on each of the
  ships
• Eliminates manual data entry of flight details
  for every landing up to 170 each day PC
  synchronization reduces errors
• Rapid feedback to pilots, immediate analysis of
  pilot/squadron performance trends

28
