XML: the most powerful productivity tool ever imaged:
I can write this text, I could insert picture or sound. I can create links ( hyper- links ) or imbedded functions ( scripts in several languages ) - e-mail it or post it to a web site that has scripts to run different functions. It is getting easier but still has lots of bugs.
Microsoft is again in a catch up position. Power corrupts and the lack of real time painful competition is what corrupted power means.
The NOISE group of Netscape, Oracle, IBM, Sun MicroSystems Corel and Everyone else had the model right years ago. With bandwidth ( such as private networks - intranets, extra-nets, and other high speed networks ) the network becomes the system. Each member of the system - clients and servers are integrated through common languages or objects.
When you open a web page, hypertext and imbedded objects can connect functions - edit, ( word processing ) analyze ( search, data bases ) and interoperate with each other using voice, images, data and text.
The idea is that a person interested in the service manual for a piece of equipment or operational system - a service engineer or client at a PC, or in the field using a lap top, wireless phone or other device not only could look up information but order parts, update systems, see graphic display, talk to experts, hold a meeting between the consultant and the providers and the home system would gather information about what is going on and what works and what doesn’t.
Providers of services - software, engineering, analysis, B2B, OEM, etc.. could all deal with each other using different languages, platforms and systems. This is the most powerful productivity tool ever imaged. System can adjust and improve in real time. A contractor in the field can order supplies from the best low cost provider, check delivery, pay accounts, check balances, talk to sub-contractors, revise plans and schedules, have the design changed and fixed, and 1000 and more details. No one can build a house without a cell phone - can any service be provided without real time communications ?
Who can do this unless they spend lots of money for services and software ?
The service providers can MS.net, oracle.net, IBM.net Sun.net, AOL.net, apple.net, excite.net, go.net, yahoo.net, - plug and play just like the cell phone. For $ 50 a month your ISP becomes an interactive system to other services.
The contractor enters his phone book, calendar, and buys services from engineers, accountants, and get free services from suppliers, banks, sub contractors, etc. Those connected have a great advantage over those out of the loop.
How about a search attached to stories.
The idea of references is still useful but you can also do a up to the minute search by a hyper text link that includes the key words -

More power in a Palm Pilot than on the Apollo 10:
The accelerating rate of change forecast more change in the next century than in the last 10,000 years.
The increases in the rate of change between paradigms began at about 5000 years as ideas spread slowly - domestic animals, agriculture, metallurgy, then cities, bureaucracy and empires - then 500 years - printing, navigation, mathematics, deep mining up to the 18th century.
Then 100 years with potatoes, steam and steel, electric and chemical, communications and computers. Now in 25 years ideas are activated that used to take a century, then 12.5 years will have a century of 20th century progress, then 6.25 years what used to take a century and so forth.
The acceleration of the rate of change has been going on for a long time - it just gets faster and faster.
Therefore if Nano computer would have taken 50 years in the past it can be done in 12.5 years.
The speed of application of stem cells to build body parts, cloned cells used as normal therapies, use of immunization in treatments of ongoing virus infections and cancers, genetic engineered plants and animals as a normal accepted process, all being implemented at great speed. Even in a slow bulky industries such as cars - the fuel cell will move along more quickly than such technologies would have in the past. This really effects markets, marketing, and business planning in very fundamental ways.

Windows in the cloudy sky:
What Microsoft wants to do is control the servers with a MS provided next, next generation NT platform operating system called XML but not open and universal.
The .net system works with devices that have .net codes built it. Microsoft products will run on .net as a server - client interface - XML files, XML data base, XML storage, XML index, id, calendar, updates, notifications, out in the cloud on MS XML server software doing object imbedded codes.
The applications become notations or services on the page.
The universal canvas API. Hardware drives, across all the devices and the .net controller in the a cloud. Development applications are built on the XML kits connected to the browser. This was Netscape’s vision from the beginning.. This is why MS had to kill Netscape and the NOISE group and what the browser wars was really about.
The platform is in the sky - Microsoft idea is the new version of what Netscape and SUN - the NOISE group ( Netscape, Oracle, IBM, Sun, and Everyone else ) started talking about five years ago.
The server ( web site ) company internets, the ISP, wireless devices, i-appliances, game panels, can all use audio, video, photograph, office applications - word process, presentation, spread sheets, data bases, in a interactive way using a server AGENT or personalized options given the application, the device used, and the pattern of application - on a rental or fee-for-service basics. In other words all the complex stuff is up stream - rich standards based on XML works between platforms and programs but at the server not on the PC - This is the critical and profound change.
The server in the cloud does the transfer and integration - is the platform in the sky that can work with all kinds of devices. It can take a record from one place in one format and uses it in another program in a different format guided by the smart agent. Information can be used almost anywhere from almost anywhere.
The devices can use keyboards, mouse, voice, hand writing, file transfer, clip board, as inputs as well as agent intelligence on the server and user interface.

U.S. scientists closer to making new type
of supercomputer
By Reuters
Special to CNET News.com
March 15, 2000, 1:55 p.m. PT
LONDON--U.S. scientists moved a step closer to developing a
super-computer after looking at a branch of physics that researches the
physics of particles invisible to the human eye.
"In the language of quantum information science, we have realized a
four-quantum-bit logic gate. This system is relevant for the future development of
quantum information technology," the scientists said in the journal Nature.
Conventional computers are based on binary
"switches," or bits, which can either be switched on
or off. Computers carry out calculations utilizing these
switches.
Quantum theory holds that entities such as atoms do
not decide whether they exist in an on or off state
until they are measured or interact with something.
When they are not interacting, the atoms exist in both
states at once--a quantum superposition--said
Christopher Monroe, a researcher at the National
Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
Computers based on quantum physics would
therefore be able to have switches or "qbits" that exist
in both on and off states simultaneously.
A string of these quantum bits would consequently offer every possible on-off
combination and could carry out every calculation a computer needed
simultaneously, hugely increasing the computer's power and memory.

Bell Labs is known for revolutions.
In 1947 it was the transistor. Today it is photonics. Called the second silicon revolution, optical fiber systems are in an explosive state of development, reminiscent of the earlier days of the electronics industry.
Over the past two decades, since fiber-optic communications first began to appear, the carrying capacity of fiber has increased at a faster rate than Moore's law. Now the wavelength-division multiplexing revolution has accelerated that capacity even more, while introducing the flexibility
of wavelength-based routing. Forged from an interdisciplinary mix of semiconductor diode lasers, micromachine technology and fundamental advances in optical glass technology, terahertz networking has arrived well ahead of schedule.
It's a major revolution riding on a broad-based industry serving the fundamental human need to communicate.
"A length of fiber long enough to circle the globe three times is produced every day, and if you extrapolate current trends to 2010, every one of the 6 billion people on earth will have a bandwidth capability equivalent to high-definition television," said Alistair Glass, director of photonics research and development at Lucent Technologies Bell Laboratories. Arriving at Bell Labs in 1967, Glass' career spans the development and implementation of fiber-optic communications systems.
Major breakthrough
"When I arrived, the major breakthrough was the first continuously operating laser, and it didn't run for very long-only a few minutes," Glass recalled.
"This was the time of the early hero experiments and the demands kept increasing and increasing on these devices.
There was always that pressure, but the interest in the marketplace represented a dramatic change."
There was always a strong demand to increase the performance of any device.
At first the research arm of AT&T, Bell Labs enjoyed a special status after its founding in the 1920s. Because of the monopoly granted AT&T by the government, in the interests of standardizing the telephone system, the lab could both be part of a commercial operation and play the open role of a national laboratory.
"At that time, there was not much connectivity with business- it was very much intellectually driven. We wanted to be leaders in all the fields relevant to communications," Glass said. But in the early 1980s two developments dramatically accelerated photonics research: commercial long-haul fiber-optic systems began to be installed commercially, and AT&T's monopoly was dissolved by the government, with parts of Bell Labs spun off into other companies as part of a complex divestiture of the telecommunications giant. "We were suddenly handed the mandate to develop commercial products out of our research efforts," he said.
The lab responded with a broad attack on optical communications systems. Innovations in the basic fiber, laser diodes to power them, and integrated optoelectronic components to interface with electronic data systems followed. "Since then, particularly with the founding of Lucent Technologies, optics has been accelerating at an incredible rate," Glass said.
For transporting data over long distances, fiber systems proved to be irresistible. Large bundles of copper wire could be replaced by slender silicon fibers in a process of "demassification" usually associated with the electronics industry. While the debate continues over whether optical interconnect is a viable alternative to electrical wiring inside of computers, the issue has been definitively resolved for long-distance communications. But optical interconnect inside the box may eventually succumb to a long-term trend. Recent developments in metropolitan-area networks suggest that fiber optics is riding a scaling law similar to the shrinking VLSI circuit, and the scaling rate appears to be steeper.
The rapid deployment of fiber optics received an even bigger jolt with a repeat of the '80s scenario in the 1990s. Bell Labs was again transferred in 1996 to another entity-Lucent Technologies-and made the centerpiece of a startup with considerable economic resources. Also brewing in photonics labs was a revolutionary technology called dense wavelength-division multiplexing (DWDM), which has allowed the carrying capacity of optical fiber to ramp up at an astonishing rate. "In the mid-90s it became a fever. We went from eight to 16 to 32 wavelengths on a single fiber and our latest products use 400. Now we have just demonstrated 1,000 wavelengths," Glass noted.
http://www.wiredbrain.net/dwdm.htm
DWDM uses individual segments of the optical spectrum to multiplex signals on a fiber.
The idea is recent, considered at first to be a laboratory curiosity since practical systems were already multiplexing channels with a time-division technique. Such synchronous optical networks (Sonet) had been able to extend the capacity of optical fiber and were a welcome development.
The wavelength-division multiplexing route has turned out to have far more potential: Bell Labs researchers recently demonstrated a DWDM transmission system capable of sending a terabit of data per second down a fiber. "That represents the entire world's Internet on a single glass fiber," Glass said.
The DWDM revolution has been extremely swift. When Lucent Technologies was established, DWDM was still at the laboratory demonstration stage. While the idea is simple, turning it into practical optical communications systems required a multifaceted development. Multiple-wavelength laser-diode systems and new types of fiber able to carry the multiple wavelength signals without crosstalk had to be developed. And some means of collectively amplifying multiwavelength signals had to be invented. While those problems were effectively solved in a short time, it wasn't easy. Indeed, one outstanding problem has never been solved: how to regenerate multiple wavelength signals.
Large areas
One consequence of that missing solution is the fact that DWDM can only be implemented on campus-wide or metropolitan areas. By doping fiber with the rare-earth element erbium, it is possible to build a simple light amplifier that is essentially a laser. When a multiple wavelength signal is passed through an erbium fiber loop and optically pumped, it emerges unchanged except that it is at a higher energy level. One nice aspect of this operation is that the actual content of the wavelength channels is irrelevant to the amplification process. Unfortunately, to recondition optical signals, it becomes necessary to decode their content and relaunch them. Thus signal regeneration, which is essential in long-haul networks, is still unavailable to DWDM.
Balancing this deficiency in very long transmissions is a new wave of all-optical switching elements that are able to add or remove a wavelength channel from a fiber.
These add-drop multiplexers offer a high-speed switching function that could not be duplicated with electronics, and have made metropolitan-area networks into a unique flexible, high-throughput communications medium.
This essentially new form of photonics technology is spawning an industry in optical switching components. "Now people can invent a novel device that relates to communications and it will find its way into products extremely rapidly-less than a year," said Glass. "We are now in a situation of 'invent on demand' where as soon as a problem is perceived, someone immediately comes up with a solution."
This explosive growth poses a formidable challenge to electronics technology. "If you compare the speed of silicon chips versus the capacity of optical fiber communications, fiber optics is going significantly faster than electronics, and where the fiber ends-that becomes a significant bottleneck." Glass is convinced that fiber to the home office and then fiber to the home are just around the corner. "We have a demonstration project going with Bell South where we have wired up a suburban neighborhood with little fiber-optic network units on the side of each house," he said.
Dealing with the high volumes of data that are coming off optical fibers will present a big challenge to electronics. Fortunately, wavelength-division multiplexing eases that task since each wavelength can be processed simultaneously by different circuits. Ultimately, electronics and optics technologies offer complementary abilities: "Optics is ideal for transporting data from point A to point B, but it is weak in the area of logic and switching," Glass pointed out. "That is where we will need electronics."

The world economic summit is less interesting because the big and powerful
are less interesting.
The rate of technological has multiplied on itself because computers can work faster and communications are better therefore computers and communications becomes faster and faster. My guess is that optic fiber to the door will make on-air or cable broadcasting uneconomic - video on demand will replace it - the program producers will distribute directly to the consumer - like in MP3 - the video store goes on line -
The move producer - such as Blair Witch could be sold directly - same with any show or news or whatever - so there goes networks - maybe even magazine writers with direct sales -
Wireless systems can get up to 400 kps to a million somehow - http://www.wiredbrain.net/symbian.htm for a lot of applications that is fine - and OS chip technology will make greater use of less and less with less energy and heat - more light and lighter -

If I were a high technology company - in information systems, computers,
communications or any part of the 25 % of the economy - and almost all the growth sector - now including networks - broadcasting - publishing - entertainment - music - video - electronics - service - I would have a venture capital connection so I could send people out and find out what is going on.
The battle for the airwaves is not just about broadband but the content - software and services. If you put a few hundred thousand in interesting technologies you gain access to information.
There is almost a certainty that something will come from left field and change all the rules again.
Cable is too slow and greedy.
The telephone companies too slow and bureaucratic. Both have shown a preference for short term gains rather than long term survival. Microsoft is showing the same brain arthritis - inflexible - such as IBM was - GM and other big and rich - missed every important technology - but could buy it after it had been proven. That may or may not be possible. .

The most common wireless transmission standard, GSM, which stands for
Global Systems for Mobile communications, is particularly prevalent in
Europe and Asia. According to market research firm Dataquest, nearly 157
million GSM-based mobile phones will be shipped worldwide this year,
compared with shipments of about 43 million CDMA cell phones.
But many industry observers say CDMA, strongest in North America, is more
efficient and can handle Internet-based transmissions better.
There is also time division and dense systems - I do believe the key is China - the PLA and post telegraph - along with the EU will set the standards.

So Where is the Wireless Web?
by Dee McVicker
February 11, 2000
Network operations are currently divided into three technology families, code division multiple access (CDMA), time division multiple access (TDMA), and global system for mobile communication (GSM).
http://www.wiredbrain.net/symbian.htm
If we gave you 800-kilobit packet-data service as a user, we could fit 100 voice calls into that same bandwidth,"
Japan's NTT DoCoMo doesn't have the same concern, one reason why it's not hesitating to jump into 3G. Japanese and European operators running out of bandwidth can license new spectrum for 3G; U.S. operators cannot.
Eventually, the goal is "third generation," or 3G, devices (digital cell phones were the second generation) that will deliver data rates of up to 2 Mbps. Just for comparison, current cellular-network transfer rates plod along at 9.6 Kbps or 14.4 Kbps, at best, which is OK for e-mail and some of the new Internet services being lauded by cell-phone carriers. Phone.com's (PHCM) Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) microbrowser is helping squeeze the Web into these pipes, but that's a stopgap measure.
Wireless data is hot. You can't open a magazine without reading about microbrowsers on cell phones or turn on a television without seeing an advertisement for the Internet-in-your-pocket.
Japan is blasting away, with all jets driving, toward the new wireless Internet. As far back as October 19, 1998, NTT Mobile Communications Network Inc. (NTT DoCoMo, Tokyo), Japan's leading mobile operator, piloted a cellular network that joined together the cell phone and motion video.
Expected to launch commercially in March 2001, the network and others like it will give birth to a new wireless-communications era. For NTT DoCoMo's 3 million "i-mode" cell-phone subscribers (roughly 10 percent of the company's total customer base), for example, it will mean wireless high-speed Internet news, banking, video streaming, travel reservations, Web radio, and a slew of other services.

There is optic to the door provided by the utility company. It is a common carrier
providing:
TV programs on demand on a big flat screen digital high definition system -
programs are recorded and played as you desire, when you desire on any of the
screens around the wired house you desire.
There is no need for program schedules
- movies and other video content are downloaded on demand from world wide
services. Some charge fees some are free with or without ads. You can watch the
BBC news or CNN or C-span type programs any time.
There is no need for movie
or music channels since you can order anything you want anytime.
The same with music, either rented for a limited number of replays, or purchased and
transferred to CD or DVD -
The same with interactive media - games and
educational services for the wired " smart" house - When you leave the security
system goes on - with complete radar monitoring of any motion with recording of
motion, the heat or AC is turned down, when you click from your cell phone that
you are returning home - the lights and heat or AC is reset, the music turned on and
the doors unsecured.
The cell phone - palm pilot - personal digital assistant works at 400 kbps to 4 Mbs
with GPS, e-mail and other web content, fold up or screen keyboards, long life
batteries, high gain reception of dense multiplex time division wideband GS3 codes.
Europe, with its common GSM standard, will likely usher in "3G" technologies (with their 2 megabit/second

The master computer works
within a network "master server in the sky" to provide services you need or enjoy.
Shopping, banking, tele-communities, video conferences, design and research,
games and social activities, travel and adventure, and tuned to your interests and
desires.
The master server bills for usage in micro pennies for "extras" but charges a
flat fee for "basic services". Several master server companies compete for services
on the common carrier -
The services are not tied to the wire - optic cable - so there are two bills - one for
connection services - the wireless and wired ( optic ) and another from the service
company that passes along charges for rentals, fee for service charges, software
licenses, communications on and off net, as we do today with local and long distance
phone services and premium cable services.
Where is the money made ? Optic fiber hardware - mobile hardware, utility
company right-of-way and network services, the "general utility service company"
maybe AOL, Microsoft, NOISE group ( Netscape, Oracle, IBM, Sun
Microsystems and everyone else ) Amazon, or others which provides the interface
between the user and service providers - banks, insurance, finance and markets,
shopping, software and music and games and movies and communications, and
entertainment, security, smart home management, and on and on...

global society ? What is the image they pursue ? http://www.wiredbrain.net/symbian.htm
CONVERGENCE: Interactive television, combining audio telephone, video
conference and cable or satellite TV, video on demand, all designed to
advertise and sell on the spot all kinds of good and services.
What is called "entertainment" on television is different from plays,
or movies or theme parks or games or sports because the role of "content"
is only to attract an audience so they can be sold something.
The job of
television is sales - not news or information or entertainment which are
only provided so people watch and can be sold something.
The role of AOL
/ Time Warner will be not only to sell others goods but direct sales.
Their
dream is the click and buy advantages of two way communications.
In the process cable or other broadband can replace a good share of
long distance voice, video rentals, VPN virtual private networks, if and
only if, the broadband connections really works then personal computers
become network devices or http://www.wiredbrain.net/nano.htm
a multipurpose communications and entertainment console.
AOL Time Warner believe that whatever the method for the broadband connections
they will control the content.
The contact rates - for cable, telephone,
Internet and video on demand provide cash flows that support the capital
for improved networks and on-line sales provide the profits.

Broadband Race Is on the Rise in Hong Kong
Last week, the Hong Kong government took another step to open further the telecom market to competition by issuing a total of 17 fixed network licenses (5 licenses for wireless local fixed telecommunications network services (FTNS), and another 12 licenses for external FTNS using satellites).
The licenses will last for 15 years, with an option to extend for another 15 years. In addition, the government has agreed to issue an FTNS license to Hong Kong Cable TV to provide telecom services over its hybrid fiber-coaxial cable networks.

The battle of the air waves is just not between cable modems ( which don't work
very well ) and DSL which has many problems and is priced too high. Optic fiber to
the door and new wideband line of sight or some technology using power lines may
jump ahead. It's a tough call to invest billions per day.
The dense urban markets, the rural markets, the issues in China and other world markets, all may not have the
same solution. Satellite systems have a role, but it seems the analysis is too tightly drawn in the box - there are sure to be out of the box answers.
``Wireless Internet devices will not only capture some existing PC applications but
introduce brand new applications that the desk-top PC has no way to handle today,''
Engibous told a Tokyo seminar on the company's strategy.
``I think the availability of a wireless device that is online all the time with broadband data capability...offers the possibility of applications that Silicon Valley'' is just beginning to dream about, he added.
With next-generation mobile phone services, users will be able to surf the Web,
check and respond to e-mail, conduct videoconferences and use new mobile
services such as e-commerce, he said.
Next-generation mobile phone services will be offered in Japan beginning in the
spring of 2001, and later in other parts of the world.

Broadband in the Local Loop 98:
Cable Modem Madness vs. xDSL Dementia
http://www.fwdconcepts.com/brdbnd98.htm
New Study Concludes G.lite not enough to overcome advantages
and head start of cable modems
http://www.fwdconcepts.com/press13.htm
According to the study, cable modems will win the lion's share of the residential
broadband market, outnumbering DSL modems 5:1 in North American and 2.6:1
worldwide by the year 2003.
The five-year growth rate for cable modems is
forecast to be 93% in North America and 114% in other regions.
The Study concludes that the rollout plans announced by the telcos are unrealistically
optimistic, that the services are too high-priced for the mainstream residential
market, and face many technical and regulatory hurdles--oft overlooked in the
excitement of bringing in a new age of high speed IP-based telecommunications.
Forward Concepts also believes that splitterless DSL still has many technical
unknowns, and that its suitability as a "universal" service is still open to question.
DSL services also jeopardize existing, highly profitable, data communications
services, further reducing motivation for rollout by the telcos.
The cable companies,
in contrast, see IP-video, IP telephony, Internet access, and remote LAN access as
pure incremental upside revenue opportunities, unencumbered by existing services.

AOL can do what Sears did.
The Sears brands were produced by OEM ( original
equipment manufactures ) with Sears keeping a very tight control of quality
and margins. Many of their providers became dependents. B2B means the intermediary
can arrange shipments from the provider to the buyer and become the super
market of the world.
Also some new technology may come along to change all the rules

"Nortel has used its technology, called Digital PowerLine (DPL), successfully in European and Asian markets. Currently, the company has agreements with 10 non-U.S. utilities that serve 35 million homes, says Dan Middleton, director of carrier packet solutions at Nortel's power line networks division.
If physicist Luke Stewart can do what he says he can send voice, video, and data thousands of miles over electric lines
at the speed of light he will produce perhaps the most significant development in communications since Alexander
Graham Bell.
That could take the company he cofounded in North Dallas, Media Fusion L.L.C., to heights greater than Microsoft in both
earnings and market value.

A short introduction to quantum computation
Max PLANCK and Heisenberg, and Erwin SCHRÖDINGER's wave mechanics,
and Born, are the people of the 20th century who will most influence the
21 st. We will see the application of quantum computer fairly soon. It
could ( so will ) have some level of self awareness we call consciousness
http://www.qubit.org/intros/comp/comp.html
Being in two places at the same time - or going from here to there without
passing through the space between.
The nature of matter at this level is
little energy spots rather than matter as we experience it, energy that
change quantum states - transform from one state to another instantly.
"
The history of computer technology has involved a sequence of changes
from one type of physical realization to another --- from gears to relays
to valves to transistors to integrated circuits and so on ...
On the atomic scale matter obeys the rules of quantum mechanics,
which are quite different from the classical rules that determine the properties
of conventional logic gates. So if computers are to become smaller in the
future, new, quantum technology must replace or supplement what we have
now.
The point is, however, that quantum technology can offer much more
than cramming more and more bits to silicon and multiplying the clock-speed
of microprocessors. It can support entirely new kind of computation with
qualitatively new algorithms based on quantum principles!
Three basic categories of elementary particles were ultimately distinguished:
leptons, quarks, and bosons. Leptons and quarks are FERMIONS, the basic
constituents of nuclear and atomic structure, or MATTER; BOSONS are the
particles that transmit the fundamental FORCES of nature between fermions.
The smallest class of elementary particles is that of the massless bosons,
which comprises the PHOTON, gluon, W AND Z PARTICLES, and the hypothetical
graviton.
The lepton class contains twelve particles: the electron, muon,
tauon, and their antiparticles, and the neutrino or antineutrino associated
with each.
The QUARKS, the third class, also number twelve: the whimsically
named up, down, charm, strange, top (or truth), and bottom (or beauty)
quarks and their antiparticles. Quarks are always found in pairs or triplets
with other quarks or antiquarks to form particles called hadrons.
In the begining there was the big bang.
Then all was
dark for awhile.
The force of gravaty produced matter and stars and light.
Most of the stuff remained dark with antimatter and antigravity.
The mind
of the universe moves from simple to complex, in a pattern of relationships
too complex to happen purely by chance.
The system desired to become aware
of itself or there would be no point in the exercise.
Elementary particles interact with one another through the four fundamental
forces: GRAVITATION, electromagnetism, WEAK INTERACTION, and STRONG INTERACTION.
Gravitation is experienced by all particles of known matter and anti-gravidy
created the asymmetrical forces that created the universe, electromagnetism
is experienced only by charged particles, such as the electron, proton,
and muon. Hadrons and leptons, including the electron, muon, and the neutrinos,
participate in the weak interaction associated with particle decay.
The
strong interaction is responsible for the structure of the atomic nucleus,
and only hadrons participate in it.

Borders, periphery, frontiers:
Life and cognizance exists on the edge of quantum

The very small ( nano ) works by most extraordinary
rules - objects have properties that allow them to move from here to there
without going through the intermediate space. Time is not linear and space
bends. Objects themselves appear, take on properties, and then change their
character and reappears in a different form.
At the atomic and molecular level the connections can
be open and creative rather than mechanical and determined. Uncertainty
is a fundamental prerequisite of creativity and life itself.
A really clever computer working with uncertainly could
work at this level and have some sort of consciousness. This would be an
interesting invention of this century.

People who purchase a PC with the belief that
computer literacy is not necessary are kidding themselves. Still, millions
of people, including my grandparents, are buying PCs with the mistaken
notion that they're no more difficult to operate than VCRs. Many PC owners
don't know how to do the basic tasks, such as installing software and hardware
and defragmenting a disk drive. And God help them if they ever have to
reinstall the operating system. Making the PC easier to maintain would
require the companies that produce the operating systems, software and
hardware to work together in harmony. This will never happen.
It's a problem crying out for a solution. And it's
not hard to imagine one: What if I told you that I could provide you with
a solid-state device a quarter of the size of a PC that had no moving parts
to break? You could run 50 software titles such as Word, WordPerfect, Lotus
SmartSuite, Quattro Pro and Quicken, as well as games. You would never
have to upgrade those applications because they would be upgraded for you.
With this device, you could watch more than 175 cable channels and select
from thousands of movie titles that you could watch either on the machine
or on the TV in your living room.
This device would have a hard drive so large that you
could never fill it up. And you never would have to back up files again
because they would be backed up for you every night. If lightning hit this
device while you were using it out by the pool, you might lose some hair
and skin, but you wouldn't lose data—and I could overnight you another
machine.
There would be no problems with an operating system, hardware
drivers or other software. You would simply plug it into your cable box,
and you're ready to go.
Services for the masses
In the near future, services such as these will
replace the PC for millions of people who were never cut out to be PC administrators.
Thin-client operating systems, such as Citrix MetaFrame running on MS Terminal
Server, combined with ISDN, ADSL or cable modem Internet access, will inevitably
be the basis of a virtual PC service that will revolutionize the industry.
Instead of buying a PC, you would pay the company a
monthly fee, and the company would send you a Winterm device that plugs
into your new high-bandwidth Internet connection, which links to its service.
After powering it on, you would simply hit "connect" and your personalized
GUI desktop would pop up on the screen. You could instantly run hundreds
of applications without installing anything. Any time you saved files,
they'd actually be saved to a server's hard drives, which would be backed
up every night. Combine these services with an e-mail account, and watch
PC sales plummet. After all, who would want to buy a PC with software that
had to be upgraded every year, if you could hire a service to take care
of the mess? Many corporations, tired of the cost and IS staff required
to manage hundreds of PCs, would jump on it.
The technology to build a virtual PC service is here
today. Other technologies, such as movies on demand, are probably a few
years out.
The advent of virtual computing will shift the entire PC infrastructure
with such momentum that the PC as we know it today will be used only by
a group of oddballs: "computer" people.

The Batle of the Air waves
What is GS3 ( Global System 3 ) for MS that Bill is going to do 100 % of the time ? - first there was the
mainframe and IBM - then the PC and MS - now the nexum - with MS-2 a marketing and communications
empire??
The keys are both the hand held portable GMS and the home appliance - the universal
communications device that runs as a terminal - software ( by MS ) and OS by MS - to provide operations on a
rental or fixed fee for service system - It owns the pipe - it owns the birds - it owns the OS - but provides
content and services for all ( Bill's idea of open systems ) This is where AOL should have been going rather than
content which is begging for distribution. Content must have eyeballs - but the owner of the pipe and OS is
KING !

McCaw and Bill still think with Teledesic, ICO Global, Nextel Nextlink etc. and create a last mile system build
on optic fiber with a wireless last mile - Time division hardware is out there -
I should mention the NEXUM (
http://www.wiredbrain.net/nexum.htm )
The idea is simple but the roll out
complex because of billions in hardware. A high capacity satellite link to optic fiber - to wireless for the last mile
- data ( high speed internet and VPN ) video and telephone i.e. voice
Why isn't AOL in this kind of deal rather than Warner and cable ? McCaw knows cable and believes it will be
by passed ? This is the battle of the century - the new war of the AirWaves - (
The last was between Armstrong
and RCA - Sarnoff about Radio and FM see
http://www.wiredbrain.net/disintermediation.htm) A superheterodyne circuit developed by U.S. Army Signal Corps major Edwin Howard
Armstrong, 26, became the basic design for all amplitude modulation (AM) radios. It
greatly increases the selectivity and sensitivity of radio receivers over a wide band of frequencies (see 1906; FM, 1933). Radio Corp. of America (RCA) was founded by Owen D. Young (see 1919) who loans Ernst Alexanderson to RCA which will employ him as chief engineer for 5 years (see 1906). RCA acquired the Victor Co. and become a
radio-phonograph colossus but anti-trust court actions will separate RCA from GE (see
VICTROLA, 1906; NBC, 1926). David Sarnoff urges marketing of a simple "radio music
box."
The American Marconi Co. says his plan will make the radio "a ‘household
utility’ in the same sense as the piano or phonograph" (see 1912; 1920).
In order to sell the system - the NEXUM a universal communications device which works on line all the time -
dial tone connections - with video and hot internet you first go after the corporate market - CONCENTRIC
with optic fiber, T1 and DSL lines then the small business user and set up a big private network.
Then you roll
out the same high speed service for domestic users in some markets -
I am looking into it - thanks - the AOL Warner raises issuers of cable access.
Someone must know something so that cable can be used on a wide scale - AOL knows all too well that the
future of low speed mass market for their
service is very limited. I believe in wireless - optic broadband doing the last
mile via some kind of microwave radar -
The issue is China -
The PLA and post telegraph have hundred of millions of new users and can't string wires -
but can run a optic fiber backbone with radio towers CDM code or time division multiplex - either only needs a
little push to get there. What about Direct TV downlink and DSL up - these are the BIG issues. Who
controls the rules and protocols controls a lot.

new school
What could an relevant on-line school be like.
-
Color is better than black and white.
-
Three dimensions is better than two.
-
Round is better than flat.
-
Fast is more successful than slow.
Civilization progresses with greater literacy,
greater attention to the laws of man and nature, and greater freedom of
participation.
Current instruction is gray and flat - it needs to
be colorful and round. Instruction is slow, knowledge is cut into fragments
and reassembled, creative participation is discouraged at all levels.
The
iron law of bureaucracy operates freely in almost all schools.
Students in rows reviewing text books under the control
of an instructor is clearly colorless and flat. Every once in awhile there
is a little burst of color or a dark pit but the surface is mostly two
dimensional and the colors are black and white.
There are several clear themes as we move from two dimensions
to many:
1. ) Knowledge is not only transferred but invented
a lot of learning takes place in the process of invention
2.)
The organizing themes are tasks not subjects ,
Knowledge is organized around functions not disciplines
3.) there is creative interaction between teachers
and learners and less distinctions between actors and classes.
The word is convergence
- Technology, communications, human organization, marketing, finance, and
further explorations of the future rushing in upon us.
The NEXUM project:
http://www.wiredbrain.net/symbian.htm
A clear image:
Since the Fallow’s article almost 10 years ago http://www.wiredbrain.net/documents/logos/fallow01.txt
and fallow.txt I have a changing image of the communications in the age
of technology. I have believed the free market would produce was rational,
logical, technologically economic communications system which looked like
this:
A receiver dish on your desk or outside on the wall
of your house and office broadcasts and receives digital signals from a
transmitters in the neighborhood ( up to 30 miles away - line of sight
or maybe not ). This single connection would provide really high speed
broadband - gigs per second - cable, telephone, Internet ( converged with
TV and phone ).
The big business will be service providers doing all the
hard stuff ( software ) up line. You IP number would connect you to the
world and the world to you where ever on what ever. Your domain name would
replace phone numbers, and all the other ID problems with transactions
in electric money as the device knows who you are ( thumb print, retina
read ).
If you wanted to write a letter - using voice recognition
from your cell phone to your NEXUM ( PC network device ) and e-mail it
or print it ( using Bluetooth ) or any financial, business, personal transaction
it would fly through the air from where-ever to where-ever.
The 100’s of millions of new connections in China and
the rest of the world without wires would use the same broadband wireless
system.
The phone companies, cable companies, broadcast companies, cell
phones, and computer hardware and software would all be in the IT communications
business. It is happening - http://www.wiredbrain.net/NEXUM.htm and http://www.wiredbrain.net/symbian.htm
The billion people on the Internet we talked about
a couple of years ago ( http://www.wiredbrain.net/packets.htm are almost
here.
The Internet as the links to phones, it is here now.
The TV Internet
connection is here @home and @work. What has not as been created is bandwidth
and the NC ( NEXUM ) but they are just over the horizon, looking More and
more like the playstation II and in the $ 350 range or comes with the $
50 monthly user fees including long distance, cable channels picked off
Satellites, Internet - Video user interface etc.
Sure people will use DSL ( fairly high speed phone
on copper ) people will use two way cable, some people and business will
use direct satellite or be on optic fiber, ( people still ride horses,
use wagons, sail boats, and walk but cars and planes have most of the transport
business ) BUT VOFDM, MMDS will replace most of these wired links by wireless,
better, freer more competitive services. I can’t track down the low power
radar (MIR) time division wideband line of sight transmitter and receivers
but it is being used by the military and seems to have no limits. Optic
fiber switches are in production to handle to backbone and local nodes.
The cost of communications content is dropping faster
than hardware - more that twice as much at half the cost every 18 months
by an order of magnitude ( 10 times more capacity for 1/10th as much cost
) ( Moore’s Law 10 X )
The design of the general communications and computing
device.
Design teams of teachers ( from around the world ) and
students from anywhere working on the interface of communications technology,
processing capacity, storage and data transfer compression, marketing,
finance, human machine interface ( ergonomics http://www.wiredbrain.net/ergonomics.htm
) because the specialist now has to consider bandwidth, chip capacities,
applications, service systems, distribution systems, content and market
demand factors all in one organized package.
Management, information technology, marketing, human
resources and production need to work together. Traditional products such
as automobiles and space rockets and atomic ships has advanced some in
design integration but computers still have a way to go - the
NEXT
must leap frog current compartment thinking into
new dimensions of systems analysis.
How is systems analysis different
from what has been used in the last 40 years.
It is more colorful and has more dimensions.
It becomes much more complex where there are many clients,
with many applications, using different languages and protocols. A great
server should ask and how do we establish an interface, what language do
you use, what program do you want, what operating system does it use, and
can I remember all this the next time we make contact ?
Amazon.com has shown the way within one set of protocols
of how to be client centric. Every store both e and non-e, should be able
to track several open ended data bases - inventory, catalog, store, client,
sales person, so as to show what exists and who is buying it. Wal-mart
and Builders Square, Office supply and Sears should have a the catalog
and inventory on line at the cash registrar and on-line for the buyers
with items, pictures, prices as well as complete lists of any clients or
sales person’s recorded sales. It world make it a lot easier for contractors
or anyone buying many different items.
A friendly server would connect such data bases to
user applications such as financial records and market research. Can any
client using different tools access open records for different purposes,
in different languages ? Can suppliers or comparative shoppers or programs
that search for best buys ? How would the Nexum, a simple communications
device, use server software to find the best buy ? Who do you compare features
? Models, grades, standards, ? All kinds of applications not invented need
to glide easily into existing systems.
The invention of credit, degrees, payment systems is easy
Color is better than black and white. Three dimensions
is better than two. Round in better than flat. Current instruction is gray
and flat - it needs to be colorful and round. Students in rows reviewing
text books under the control of an instructor is clearly colorless and
flat. Every once in awhile there is a little burst of color or a dark pit
but the surface is mostly two dimensional and the colors are black and

Keywords
weirdbrain
' (wîrd) adj., weird·er, weird·est. Of, relating to,
or suggestive of the preternatural or supernatural. Of a strikingly odd
or unusual character; strange. Archaic. Of or relating to fate or the Fates.
n.
Fate; destiny.
One's assigned lot or fortune, especially when evil. Often Weird. Greek
Mythology. Roman Mythology. One of the Fates. weird'ly adv. weird'ness
n. SYNONYMS: weird, eerie, uncanny, unearthly.
These adjectives refer to
what is of a mysteriously strange, usually frightening nature. Weird may
suggest the operation of supernatural influences, but it may also be applied
to what is merely odd or unusual: “
The person of the house gave a weird
little laugh” (Charles Dickens). “
There is a weird power in a spoken word”
(Joseph Conrad). Something eerie inspires inexplicable fear or uneasiness
that seems to result from a sinister influence: “At nightfall on the marshes,
the thing was eerie and fantastic to behold” (Robert Louis Stevenson).
Uncanny refers to what is unnatural and peculiarly unsettling: “
The queer
stumps . . . had uncanny shapes, as of monstrous creatures, whose eyes
seemed to peer out at you” (John Galsworthy). Something unearthly seems
so strange and unnatural as to come from or belong to another world: “He
could hear the unearthly scream of some curlew piercing the din” (Henry
Kingsley).

Since
the late 1880s, when wireless communications were first demonstrated, all
practical uses of radio have relied on the transmission of continuous sine
waves.
The modulation of those sine waves allows the transmission and reception
of information in either amplitude (AM radio) or frequency (FM radio).
From 1890 to the present, industry has searched relentlessly for ways to
send more information more reliably. Radio researchers have evolved techniques
such as CDMA, TDMA, etc.
Introduction to CDMA
http://www.time-domain.com/technology.htmlNow,
the entire wireless landscape has changed. Larry Fullerton discovered that
single RF monocycles could be transmitted through an antenna, and by precisely
positioning these monocycles in time and then using a matched receiver
to recover the transmissions, a whole new wireless medium was created,
'Digital Pulse Wireless' - a medium that does not rely on sine waves, does
not require an assigned frequency, does not need a power amplifier, and
is so random and low powered that it is indistinguishable from noise.
The
medium does require precise pulse placement in time (pulses are positioned
with an accuracy of trillionths of a second), and it also requires a coherent
correlating receiver - a Fullerton correlator. Larry Fullerton developed
and patented the technology over the last decade.
http://lasers.llnl.gov/lasers/idp/mir/files/MIR_info.html
The technology based on pulse-echo radar, discovered around the turn of
the century. Such radar leverages the speed of light as an integral component
of its operation, measuring the echo that results when a pulse strikes
an object to determine that object's distance from the pulse source.
Conventional
radar systems transmit several thousand such pulses per second. MIR, by
contrast, sends out over 1 million.
"In
the past, people used radio waves, but nobody cared how fast they were
going," McEwan said. "Now the consumer can use devices that actually clock
the speed of light in the form of microwave propagation, allowing them
to do things that they could never do before."
http://www.eet.com/news/97/937news/sensorapps.html
As
I understand IT , a new type of technology using Time Synchronization Systems
Through DCF77 or GPS signal and using a 10,000 MHTZ chip can transmit MEGA-BITS
the last mile. In synergy with solid state atomic level MEMORY TECHNOLOGY
data moves from FROM MEGA-BIT TO GIGA-BIT per second. High Speed processors
adapted from TERCOM - terrain contour matching 10,000 MHz chip used
in the cruise missile terrain following "smart bombs" or using guided radio
waves or laser beam targeting based on rapid image recognition.

NEW
DEVELOPMENTS IN STORAGEAccording to CMR (
http://www.cmruk.com/cmrinventions.html ), Professor Ted Williams and
his team are able to store 86 gigabytes per square centimeter, and to read
and write this data at 100 megabits/second. While few details are available
while their patents are pending, CMR does indicate that the process, funded
in part by the UK Department of Trade and Industry, exploits a new family
of metal alloys to create, "...a magneto-optical system not dissimilar
to that of CD-ROM, except that the system is fixed, solid state, and has
a different operating approach."
The
news tracker connection then runs everything
.
The Star Office 5.1
is a good example. It runs on open platforms and can be updated, reconfigured
to include sound and video telephones, and doesn't need to be completely
installed on every terminal but can run off the system network.
In
doing web pages, Netscape Composer, MS FrontPage, and Star Office use different
forms of code, HTTP ( hypertext ) different Java scripts, and can mess
each other and the author up. Now since they ( Netscape ( AOL ) and
Sun - part of the NOISE group, Netscape, Oracle, IBM, Sun and everyone
else - ) are enemies they may intend to screw each other with the author
in the middle.
How
about http://www.wiredbrain.net/battle.wav
and
too many other changes that work here but not there - audio plug-ins, ActiveX,
virtual machines, XML, etc. Etc..
This
is why the complex stuff has to be up-stream on the server if the communications
systems can communicate with each other.
The system knows where you
are (GPS), who you are ( IP) and what you are ( kind of device you are
using ) and what you want - voice, e-mail, conference, word processor,
accounts, pay a bill, collect a bill etc.
The
standards have to be set by SOMEONE - it can’t be done by a voluntary committee
as in the good old non commercial days when the DOD and NSF controlled
the net. It can’t be done by government ( too slow ) IT has to be global
- the EU and Asia are involved - sometimes well ahead.
The WWW system standard
was set at CERN - and the UN or a global trade or international postal
telecommunications agreement could set up a fast working body the approve
PROTOCALS. Now MS does the global job but is clearly not neutral or trustworthy,
since it is worth a good share of the almost trillion dollars in systems
sales.

XML: the most powerful productivity tool ever imaged:
I can write this text, I could insert picture or sound. I can create links ( hyper- links ) or imbedded functions ( scripts in several languages ) - e-mail it or post it to a web site that has scripts to run different functions. It is getting easier but still has lots of bugs.
Microsoft is again in a catch up position. Power corrupts and the lack of real time painful competition is what corrupted power means.
The NOISE group of Netscape, Oracle, IBM, Sun MicroSystems Corel and Everyone else had the model right years ago. With bandwidth ( such as private networks - intranets, extra-nets, and other high speed networks ) the network becomes the system. Each member of the system - clients and servers are integrated through common languages or objects.
When you open a web page, hypertext and imbedded objects can connect functions - edit, ( word processing ) analyze ( search, data bases ) and interoperate with each other using voice, images, data and text.
The idea is that a person interested in the service manual for a piece of equipment or operational system - a service engineer or client at a PC, or in the field using a lap top, wireless phone or other device not only could look up information but order parts, update systems, see graphic display, talk to experts, hold a meeting between the consultant and the providers and the home system would gather information about what is going on and what works and what doesn’t.
Providers of services - software, engineering, analysis, B2B, OEM, etc.. could all deal with each other using different languages, platforms and systems. This is the most powerful productivity tool ever imaged. System can adjust and improve in real time. A contractor in the field can order supplies from the best low cost provider, check delivery, pay accounts, check balances, talk to sub-contractors, revise plans and schedules, have the design changed and fixed, and 1000 and more details. No one can build a house without a cell phone - can any service be provided without real time communications ?
Who can do this unless they spend lots of money for services and software ?
The service providers can MS.net, oracle.net, IBM.net Sun.net, AOL.net, apple.net, excite.net, go.net, yahoo.net, - plug and play just like the cell phone. For $ 50 a month your ISP becomes an interactive system to other services.
The contractor enters his phone book, calendar, and buys services from engineers, accountants, and get free services from suppliers, banks, sub contractors, etc. Those connected have a great advantage over those out of the loop.
How about a search attached to stories.
The idea of references is still useful but you can also do a up to the minute search by a hyper text link that includes the key words -

More power in a Palm Pilot than on the Apollo 10:
The accelerating rate of change forecast more change in the next century than in the last 10,000 years.
The increases in the rate of change between paradigms began at about 5000 years as ideas spread slowly - domestic animals, agriculture, metallurgy, then cities, bureaucracy and empires - then 500 years - printing, navigation, mathematics, deep mining up to the 18th century.
Then 100 years with potatoes, steam and steel, electric and chemical, communications and computers. Now in 25 years ideas are activated that used to take a century, then 12.5 years will have a century of 20th century progress, then 6.25 years what used to take a century and so forth.
The acceleration of the rate of change has been going on for a long time - it just gets faster and faster.
Therefore if Nano computer would have taken 50 years in the past it can be done in 12.5 years.
The speed of application of stem cells to build body parts, cloned cells used as normal therapies, use of immunization in treatments of ongoing virus infections and cancers, genetic engineered plants and animals as a normal accepted process, all being implemented at great speed. Even in a slow bulky industries such as cars - the fuel cell will move along more quickly than such technologies would have in the past. This really effects markets, marketing, and business planning in very fundamental ways.

Windows in the cloudy sky:
What Microsoft wants to do is control the servers with a MS provided next, next generation NT platform operating system called XML but not open and universal.
The .net system works with devices that have .net codes built it. Microsoft products will run on .net as a server - client interface - XML files, XML data base, XML storage, XML index, id, calendar, updates, notifications, out in the cloud on MS XML server software doing object imbedded codes.
The applications become notations or services on the page.
The universal canvas API. Hardware drives, across all the devices and the .net controller in the a cloud. Development applications are built on the XML kits connected to the browser. This was Netscape’s vision from the beginning.. This is why MS had to kill Netscape and the NOISE group and what the browser wars was really about.
The platform is in the sky - Microsoft idea is the new version of what Netscape and SUN - the NOISE group ( Netscape, Oracle, IBM, Sun, and Everyone else ) started talking about five years ago.
The server ( web site ) company internets, the ISP, wireless devices, i-appliances, game panels, can all use audio, video, photograph, office applications - word process, presentation, spread sheets, data bases, in a interactive way using a server AGENT or personalized options given the application, the device used, and the pattern of application - on a rental or fee-for-service basics. In other words all the complex stuff is up stream - rich standards based on XML works between platforms and programs but at the server not on the PC - This is the critical and profound change.
The server in the cloud does the transfer and integration - is the platform in the sky that can work with all kinds of devices. It can take a record from one place in one format and uses it in another program in a different format guided by the smart agent. Information can be used almost anywhere from almost anywhere.
The devices can use keyboards, mouse, voice, hand writing, file transfer, clip board, as inputs as well as agent intelligence on the server and user interface.

U.S. scientists closer to making new type
of supercomputer
By Reuters
Special to CNET News.com
March 15, 2000, 1:55 p.m. PT
LONDON--U.S. scientists moved a step closer to developing a
super-computer after looking at a branch of physics that researches the
physics of particles invisible to the human eye.
"In the language of quantum information science, we have realized a
four-quantum-bit logic gate. This system is relevant for the future development of
quantum information technology," the scientists said in the journal Nature.
Conventional computers are based on binary
"switches," or bits, which can either be switched on
or off. Computers carry out calculations utilizing these
switches.
Quantum theory holds that entities such as atoms do
not decide whether they exist in an on or off state
until they are measured or interact with something.
When they are not interacting, the atoms exist in both
states at once--a quantum superposition--said
Christopher Monroe, a researcher at the National
Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
Computers based on quantum physics would
therefore be able to have switches or "qbits" that exist
in both on and off states simultaneously.
A string of these quantum bits would consequently offer every possible on-off
combination and could carry out every calculation a computer needed
simultaneously, hugely increasing the computer's power and memory.

Bell Labs is known for revolutions.
In 1947 it was the transistor. Today it is photonics. Called the second silicon revolution, optical fiber systems are in an explosive state of development, reminiscent of the earlier days of the electronics industry.
Over the past two decades, since fiber-optic communications first began to appear, the carrying capacity of fiber has increased at a faster rate than Moore's law. Now the wavelength-division multiplexing revolution has accelerated that capacity even more, while introducing the flexibility
of wavelength-based routing. Forged from an interdisciplinary mix of semiconductor diode lasers, micromachine technology and fundamental advances in optical glass technology, terahertz networking has arrived well ahead of schedule.
It's a major revolution riding on a broad-based industry serving the fundamental human need to communicate.
"A length of fiber long enough to circle the globe three times is produced every day, and if you extrapolate current trends to 2010, every one of the 6 billion people on earth will have a bandwidth capability equivalent to high-definition television," said Alistair Glass, director of photonics research and development at Lucent Technologies Bell Laboratories. Arriving at Bell Labs in 1967, Glass' career spans the development and implementation of fiber-optic communications systems.
Major breakthrough
"When I arrived, the major breakthrough was the first continuously operating laser, and it didn't run for very long-only a few minutes," Glass recalled.
"This was the time of the early hero experiments and the demands kept increasing and increasing on these devices.
There was always that pressure, but the interest in the marketplace represented a dramatic change."
There was always a strong demand to increase the performance of any device.
At first the research arm of AT&T, Bell Labs enjoyed a special status after its founding in the 1920s. Because of the monopoly granted AT&T by the government, in the interests of standardizing the telephone system, the lab could both be part of a commercial operation and play the open role of a national laboratory.
"At that time, there was not much connectivity with business- it was very much intellectually driven. We wanted to be leaders in all the fields relevant to communications," Glass said. But in the early 1980s two developments dramatically accelerated photonics research: commercial long-haul fiber-optic systems began to be installed commercially, and AT&T's monopoly was dissolved by the government, with parts of Bell Labs spun off into other companies as part of a complex divestiture of the telecommunications giant. "We were suddenly handed the mandate to develop commercial products out of our research efforts," he said.
The lab responded with a broad attack on optical communications systems. Innovations in the basic fiber, laser diodes to power them, and integrated optoelectronic components to interface with electronic data systems followed. "Since then, particularly with the founding of Lucent Technologies, optics has been accelerating at an incredible rate," Glass said.
For transporting data over long distances, fiber systems proved to be irresistible. Large bundles of copper wire could be replaced by slender silicon fibers in a process of "demassification" usually associated with the electronics industry. While the debate continues over whether optical interconnect is a viable alternative to electrical wiring inside of computers, the issue has been definitively resolved for long-distance communications. But optical interconnect inside the box may eventually succumb to a long-term trend. Recent developments in metropolitan-area networks suggest that fiber optics is riding a scaling law similar to the shrinking VLSI circuit, and the scaling rate appears to be steeper.
The rapid deployment of fiber optics received an even bigger jolt with a repeat of the '80s scenario in the 1990s. Bell Labs was again transferred in 1996 to another entity-Lucent Technologies-and made the centerpiece of a startup with considerable economic resources. Also brewing in photonics labs was a revolutionary technology called dense wavelength-division multiplexing (DWDM), which has allowed the carrying capacity of optical fiber to ramp up at an astonishing rate. "In the mid-90s it became a fever. We went from eight to 16 to 32 wavelengths on a single fiber and our latest products use 400. Now we have just demonstrated 1,000 wavelengths," Glass noted.
http://www.wiredbrain.net/dwdm.htm
DWDM uses individual segments of the optical spectrum to multiplex signals on a fiber.
The idea is recent, considered at first to be a laboratory curiosity since practical systems were already multiplexing channels with a time-division technique. Such synchronous optical networks (Sonet) had been able to extend the capacity of optical fiber and were a welcome development.
The wavelength-division multiplexing route has turned out to have far more potential: Bell Labs researchers recently demonstrated a DWDM transmission system capable of sending a terabit of data per second down a fiber. "That represents the entire world's Internet on a single glass fiber," Glass said.
The DWDM revolution has been extremely swift. When Lucent Technologies was established, DWDM was still at the laboratory demonstration stage. While the idea is simple, turning it into practical optical communications systems required a multifaceted development. Multiple-wavelength laser-diode systems and new types of fiber able to carry the multiple wavelength signals without crosstalk had to be developed. And some means of collectively amplifying multiwavelength signals had to be invented. While those problems were effectively solved in a short time, it wasn't easy. Indeed, one outstanding problem has never been solved: how to regenerate multiple wavelength signals.
Large areas
One consequence of that missing solution is the fact that DWDM can only be implemented on campus-wide or metropolitan areas. By doping fiber with the rare-earth element erbium, it is possible to build a simple light amplifier that is essentially a laser. When a multiple wavelength signal is passed through an erbium fiber loop and optically pumped, it emerges unchanged except that it is at a higher energy level. One nice aspect of this operation is that the actual content of the wavelength channels is irrelevant to the amplification process. Unfortunately, to recondition optical signals, it becomes necessary to decode their content and relaunch them. Thus signal regeneration, which is essential in long-haul networks, is still unavailable to DWDM.
Balancing this deficiency in very long transmissions is a new wave of all-optical switching elements that are able to add or remove a wavelength channel from a fiber.
These add-drop multiplexers offer a high-speed switching function that could not be duplicated with electronics, and have made metropolitan-area networks into a unique flexible, high-throughput communications medium.
This essentially new form of photonics technology is spawning an industry in optical switching components. "Now people can invent a novel device that relates to communications and it will find its way into products extremely rapidly-less than a year," said Glass. "We are now in a situation of 'invent on demand' where as soon as a problem is perceived, someone immediately comes up with a solution."
This explosive growth poses a formidable challenge to electronics technology. "If you compare the speed of silicon chips versus the capacity of optical fiber communications, fiber optics is going significantly faster than electronics, and where the fiber ends-that becomes a significant bottleneck." Glass is convinced that fiber to the home office and then fiber to the home are just around the corner. "We have a demonstration project going with Bell South where we have wired up a suburban neighborhood with little fiber-optic network units on the side of each house," he said.
Dealing with the high volumes of data that are coming off optical fibers will present a big challenge to electronics. Fortunately, wavelength-division multiplexing eases that task since each wavelength can be processed simultaneously by different circuits. Ultimately, electronics and optics technologies offer complementary abilities: "Optics is ideal for transporting data from point A to point B, but it is weak in the area of logic and switching," Glass pointed out. "That is where we will need electronics."

The world economic summit is less interesting because the big and powerful
are less interesting.
The rate of technological has multiplied on itself because computers can work faster and communications are better therefore computers and communications becomes faster and faster. My guess is that optic fiber to the door will make on-air or cable broadcasting uneconomic - video on demand will replace it - the program producers will distribute directly to the consumer - like in MP3 - the video store goes on line -
The move producer - such as Blair Witch could be sold directly - same with any show or news or whatever - so there goes networks - maybe even magazine writers with direct sales -
Wireless systems can get up to 400 kps to a million somehow - http://www.wiredbrain.net/symbian.htm for a lot of applications that is fine - and OS chip technology will make greater use of less and less with less energy and heat - more light and lighter -

If I were a high technology company - in information systems, computers,
communications or any part of the 25 % of the economy - and almost all the growth sector - now including networks - broadcasting - publishing - entertainment - music - video - electronics - service - I would have a venture capital connection so I could send people out and find out what is going on.
The battle for the airwaves is not just about broadband but the content - software and services. If you put a few hundred thousand in interesting technologies you gain access to information.
There is almost a certainty that something will come from left field and change all the rules again.
Cable is too slow and greedy.
The telephone companies too slow and bureaucratic. Both have shown a preference for short term gains rather than long term survival. Microsoft is showing the same brain arthritis - inflexible - such as IBM was - GM and other big and rich - missed every important technology - but could buy it after it had been proven. That may or may not be possible. .

The most common wireless transmission standard, GSM, which stands for
Global Systems for Mobile communications, is particularly prevalent in
Europe and Asia. According to market research firm Dataquest, nearly 157
million GSM-based mobile phones will be shipped worldwide this year,
compared with shipments of about 43 million CDMA cell phones.
But many industry observers say CDMA, strongest in North America, is more
efficient and can handle Internet-based transmissions better.
There is also time division and dense systems - I do believe the key is China - the PLA and post telegraph - along with the EU will set the standards.

So Where is the Wireless Web?
by Dee McVicker
February 11, 2000
Network operations are currently divided into three technology families, code division multiple access (CDMA), time division multiple access (TDMA), and global system for mobile communication (GSM).
http://www.wiredbrain.net/symbian.htm
If we gave you 800-kilobit packet-data service as a user, we could fit 100 voice calls into that same bandwidth,"
Japan's NTT DoCoMo doesn't have the same concern, one reason why it's not hesitating to jump into 3G. Japanese and European operators running out of bandwidth can license new spectrum for 3G; U.S. operators cannot.
Eventually, the goal is "third generation," or 3G, devices (digital cell phones were the second generation) that will deliver data rates of up to 2 Mbps. Just for comparison, current cellular-network transfer rates plod along at 9.6 Kbps or 14.4 Kbps, at best, which is OK for e-mail and some of the new Internet services being lauded by cell-phone carriers. Phone.com's (PHCM) Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) microbrowser is helping squeeze the Web into these pipes, but that's a stopgap measure.
Wireless data is hot. You can't open a magazine without reading about microbrowsers on cell phones or turn on a television without seeing an advertisement for the Internet-in-your-pocket.
Japan is blasting away, with all jets driving, toward the new wireless Internet. As far back as October 19, 1998, NTT Mobile Communications Network Inc. (NTT DoCoMo, Tokyo), Japan's leading mobile operator, piloted a cellular network that joined together the cell phone and motion video.
Expected to launch commercially in March 2001, the network and others like it will give birth to a new wireless-communications era. For NTT DoCoMo's 3 million "i-mode" cell-phone subscribers (roughly 10 percent of the company's total customer base), for example, it will mean wireless high-speed Internet news, banking, video streaming, travel reservations, Web radio, and a slew of other services.

Shopping, banking, tele-communities, video conferences, design and research,
games and social activities, travel and adventure, and tuned to your interests and
desires.
The master server bills for usage in micro pennies for "extras" but charges a
flat fee for "basic services". Several master server companies compete for services
on the common carrier -
The services are not tied to the wire - optic cable - so there are two bills - one for
connection services - the wireless and wired ( optic ) and another from the service
company that passes along charges for rentals, fee for service charges, software
licenses, communications on and off net, as we do today with local and long distance
phone services and premium cable services.
Where is the money made ? Optic fiber hardware - mobile hardware, utility
company right-of-way and network services, the "general utility service company"
maybe AOL, Microsoft, NOISE group ( Netscape, Oracle, IBM, Sun
Microsystems and everyone else ) Amazon, or others which provides the interface
between the user and service providers - banks, insurance, finance and markets,
shopping, software and music and games and movies and communications, and
entertainment, security, smart home management, and on and on...
The super on-line
service using optic fiber to the door.

All Boiled down on CONVERGENCE AOL: the super market of the world
What does AOL Time Warner ( and Wal-Mart, & some Computer terminal
company and cable modem or broadband connection ) mean for the future of
global society ? What is the image they pursue ? http://www.wiredbrain.net/symbian.htm
CONVERGENCE: Interactive television, combining audio telephone, video
conference and cable or satellite TV, video on demand, all designed to
advertise and sell on the spot all kinds of good and services.
What is called "entertainment" on television is different from plays,
or movies or theme parks or games or sports because the role of "content"
is only to attract an audience so they can be sold something.
The job of
television is sales - not news or information or entertainment which are
only provided so people watch and can be sold something.
The role of AOL
/ Time Warner will be not only to sell others goods but direct sales.
Their
dream is the click and buy advantages of two way communications.
In the process cable or other broadband can replace a good share of
long distance voice, video rentals, VPN virtual private networks, if and
only if, the broadband connections really works then personal computers
become network devices or http://www.wiredbrain.net/nano.htm
a multipurpose communications and entertainment console.
AOL Time Warner believe that whatever the method for the broadband connections
they will control the content.
The contact rates - for cable, telephone,
Internet and video on demand provide cash flows that support the capital
for improved networks and on-line sales provide the profits.
It's not only that you can buy your tooth paste from the commercial
( click here to add it to your Wal-mart order ) but you might get free
samples for filling out forms. You can add with a click to your grocery
list. People really will buy travel deals, change banks or brokers, buy
records after getting MP3 samples, select household gadgets, buy gifts,
use auctions, even pick appliances and cars.
They will seek better mortgage
and insurance rates, look for a new house, and a thousand other products
and services.
http://www.wiredbrain.net/disintermedation.htm
disintermediation means becoming the middle person between the buyer
and seller. On-line systems such as Amazon.com means direct sales take
on a whole new meaning. I would look for a Amazon Wal-mart connection if
not merger.

Broadband Race Is on the Rise in Hong Kong
Last week, the Hong Kong government took another step to open further the telecom market to competition by issuing a total of 17 fixed network licenses (5 licenses for wireless local fixed telecommunications network services (FTNS), and another 12 licenses for external FTNS using satellites).
The licenses will last for 15 years, with an option to extend for another 15 years. In addition, the government has agreed to issue an FTNS license to Hong Kong Cable TV to provide telecom services over its hybrid fiber-coaxial cable networks.

The battle of the air waves is just not between cable modems ( which don't work
very well ) and DSL which has many problems and is priced too high. Optic fiber to
the door and new wideband line of sight or some technology using power lines may
jump ahead. It's a tough call to invest billions per day.
The dense urban markets, the rural markets, the issues in China and other world markets, all may not have the
same solution. Satellite systems have a role, but it seems the analysis is too tightly drawn in the box - there are sure to be out of the box answers.
``Wireless Internet devices will not only capture some existing PC applications but
introduce brand new applications that the desk-top PC has no way to handle today,''
Engibous told a Tokyo seminar on the company's strategy.
``I think the availability of a wireless device that is online all the time with broadband data capability...offers the possibility of applications that Silicon Valley'' is just beginning to dream about, he added.
With next-generation mobile phone services, users will be able to surf the Web,
check and respond to e-mail, conduct videoconferences and use new mobile
services such as e-commerce, he said.
Next-generation mobile phone services will be offered in Japan beginning in the
spring of 2001, and later in other parts of the world.

Broadband in the Local Loop 98:
Cable Modem Madness vs. xDSL Dementia
http://www.fwdconcepts.com/brdbnd98.htm
New Study Concludes G.lite not enough to overcome advantages
and head start of cable modems
http://www.fwdconcepts.com/press13.htm
According to the study, cable modems will win the lion's share of the residential
broadband market, outnumbering DSL modems 5:1 in North American and 2.6:1
worldwide by the year 2003.
The five-year growth rate for cable modems is
forecast to be 93% in North America and 114% in other regions.
The Study concludes that the rollout plans announced by the telcos are unrealistically
optimistic, that the services are too high-priced for the mainstream residential
market, and face many technical and regulatory hurdles--oft overlooked in the
excitement of bringing in a new age of high speed IP-based telecommunications.
Forward Concepts also believes that splitterless DSL still has many technical
unknowns, and that its suitability as a "universal" service is still open to question.
DSL services also jeopardize existing, highly profitable, data communications
services, further reducing motivation for rollout by the telcos.
The cable companies,
in contrast, see IP-video, IP telephony, Internet access, and remote LAN access as
pure incremental upside revenue opportunities, unencumbered by existing services.

AOL can do what Sears did.
The Sears brands were produced by OEM ( original
equipment manufactures ) with Sears keeping a very tight control of quality
and margins. Many of their providers became dependents. B2B means the intermediary
can arrange shipments from the provider to the buyer and become the super
market of the world.
Also some new technology may come along to change all the rules
http://www.zdnet.com/intweek/stories/news/0,4164,2270684.html
"Nortel has used its technology, called Digital PowerLine (DPL), successfully in European and Asian markets. Currently, the company has agreements with 10 non-U.S. utilities that serve 35 million homes, says Dan Middleton, director of carrier packet solutions at Nortel's power line networks division.
If physicist Luke Stewart can do what he says he can send voice, video, and data thousands of miles over electric lines
at the speed of light he will produce perhaps the most significant development in communications since Alexander
Graham Bell.
That could take the company he cofounded in North Dallas, Media Fusion L.L.C., to heights greater than Microsoft in both
earnings and market value.
I do think that nano quantum computers - optic and laser [acronym for
light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation], device for the
creation and amplification of a narrow, intense beam of coherent LIGHT.

economics come from the structure of industry and enterprise - clearly
the railroads, automobiles, radio, TV, computers and the internet are

economy and political system.

A short introduction to quantum computation
Max PLANCK and Heisenberg, and Erwin SCHRÖDINGER's wave mechanics,
and Born, are the people of the 20th century who will most influence the
21 st. We will see the application of quantum computer fairly soon. It
could ( so will ) have some level of self awareness we call consciousness
http://www.qubit.org/intros/comp/comp.html
Being in two places at the same time - or going from here to there without
passing through the space between.
The nature of matter at this level is
little energy spots rather than matter as we experience it, energy that
change quantum states - transform from one state to another instantly.
"
The history of computer technology has involved a sequence of changes
from one type of physical realization to another --- from gears to relays
to valves to transistors to integrated circuits and so on ...
On the atomic scale matter obeys the rules of quantum mechanics,
which are quite different from the classical rules that determine the properties
of conventional logic gates. So if computers are to become smaller in the
future, new, quantum technology must replace or supplement what we have
now.
The point is, however, that quantum technology can offer much more
than cramming more and more bits to silicon and multiplying the clock-speed
of microprocessors. It can support entirely new kind of computation with
qualitatively new algorithms based on quantum principles!
Three basic categories of elementary particles were ultimately distinguished:
leptons, quarks, and bosons. Leptons and quarks are FERMIONS, the basic
constituents of nuclear and atomic structure, or MATTER; BOSONS are the
particles that transmit the fundamental FORCES of nature between fermions.
The smallest class of elementary particles is that of the massless bosons,
which comprises the PHOTON, gluon, W AND Z PARTICLES, and the hypothetical
graviton.
The lepton class contains twelve particles: the electron, muon,
tauon, and their antiparticles, and the neutrino or antineutrino associated
with each.
The QUARKS, the third class, also number twelve: the whimsically
named up, down, charm, strange, top (or truth), and bottom (or beauty)
quarks and their antiparticles. Quarks are always found in pairs or triplets
with other quarks or antiquarks to form particles called hadrons.
In the begining there was the big bang.
Then all was
dark for awhile.
The force of gravaty produced matter and stars and light.
Most of the stuff remained dark with antimatter and antigravity.
The mind
of the universe moves from simple to complex, in a pattern of relationships
too complex to happen purely by chance.
The system desired to become aware
of itself or there would be no point in the exercise.
Elementary particles interact with one another through the four fundamental
forces: GRAVITATION, electromagnetism, WEAK INTERACTION, and STRONG INTERACTION.
Gravitation is experienced by all particles of known matter and anti-gravidy
created the asymmetrical forces that created the universe, electromagnetism
is experienced only by charged particles, such as the electron, proton,
and muon. Hadrons and leptons, including the electron, muon, and the neutrinos,
participate in the weak interaction associated with particle decay.
The
strong interaction is responsible for the structure of the atomic nucleus,
and only hadrons participate in it.

Borders, periphery, frontiers:
Life and cognizance exists on the edge of quantum
and classical physics.
The very small ( nano ) works by most extraordinary
rules - objects have properties that allow them to move from here to there
without going through the intermediate space. Time is not linear and space
bends. Objects themselves appear, take on properties, and then change their
character and reappears in a different form.
At the atomic and molecular level the connections can
be open and creative rather than mechanical and determined. Uncertainty
is a fundamental prerequisite of creativity and life itself.
A really clever computer working with uncertainly could
work at this level and have some sort of consciousness. This would be an
interesting invention of this century.

People who purchase a PC with the belief that
computer literacy is not necessary are kidding themselves. Still, millions
of people, including my grandparents, are buying PCs with the mistaken
notion that they're no more difficult to operate than VCRs. Many PC owners
don't know how to do the basic tasks, such as installing software and hardware
and defragmenting a disk drive. And God help them if they ever have to
reinstall the operating system. Making the PC easier to maintain would
require the companies that produce the operating systems, software and
hardware to work together in harmony. This will never happen.
It's a problem crying out for a solution. And it's
not hard to imagine one: What if I told you that I could provide you with
a solid-state device a quarter of the size of a PC that had no moving parts
to break? You could run 50 software titles such as Word, WordPerfect, Lotus
SmartSuite, Quattro Pro and Quicken, as well as games. You would never
have to upgrade those applications because they would be upgraded for you.
With this device, you could watch more than 175 cable channels and select
from thousands of movie titles that you could watch either on the machine
or on the TV in your living room.
This device would have a hard drive so large that you
could never fill it up. And you never would have to back up files again
because they would be backed up for you every night. If lightning hit this
device while you were using it out by the pool, you might lose some hair
and skin, but you wouldn't lose data—and I could overnight you another
machine.
There would be no problems with an operating system, hardware
drivers or other software. You would simply plug it into your cable box,
and you're ready to go.
Services for the masses
In the near future, services such as these will
replace the PC for millions of people who were never cut out to be PC administrators.
Thin-client operating systems, such as Citrix MetaFrame running on MS Terminal
Server, combined with ISDN, ADSL or cable modem Internet access, will inevitably
be the basis of a virtual PC service that will revolutionize the industry.
Instead of buying a PC, you would pay the company a
monthly fee, and the company would send you a Winterm device that plugs
into your new high-bandwidth Internet connection, which links to its service.
After powering it on, you would simply hit "connect" and your personalized
GUI desktop would pop up on the screen. You could instantly run hundreds
of applications without installing anything. Any time you saved files,
they'd actually be saved to a server's hard drives, which would be backed
up every night. Combine these services with an e-mail account, and watch
PC sales plummet. After all, who would want to buy a PC with software that
had to be upgraded every year, if you could hire a service to take care
of the mess? Many corporations, tired of the cost and IS staff required
to manage hundreds of PCs, would jump on it.
The technology to build a virtual PC service is here
today. Other technologies, such as movies on demand, are probably a few
years out.
The advent of virtual computing will shift the entire PC infrastructure
with such momentum that the PC as we know it today will be used only by
a group of oddballs: "computer" people.

The Batle of the Air waves
What is GS3 ( Global System 3 ) for MS that Bill is going to do 100 % of the time ? - first there was the
mainframe and IBM - then the PC and MS - now the nexum - with MS-2 a marketing and communications
empire??
The keys are both the hand held portable GMS and the home appliance - the universal
communications device that runs as a terminal - software ( by MS ) and OS by MS - to provide operations on a
rental or fixed fee for service system - It owns the pipe - it owns the birds - it owns the OS - but provides
content and services for all ( Bill's idea of open systems ) This is where AOL should have been going rather than
content which is begging for distribution. Content must have eyeballs - but the owner of the pipe and OS is
KING !

telecommunications industry.

McCaw and Bill still think with Teledesic, ICO Global, Nextel Nextlink etc. and create a last mile system build
on optic fiber with a wireless last mile - Time division hardware is out there -
I should mention the NEXUM (
http://www.wiredbrain.net/nexum.htm )
The idea is simple but the roll out
complex because of billions in hardware. A high capacity satellite link to optic fiber - to wireless for the last mile
- data ( high speed internet and VPN ) video and telephone i.e. voice
Why isn't AOL in this kind of deal rather than Warner and cable ? McCaw knows cable and believes it will be
by passed ? This is the battle of the century - the new war of the AirWaves - (
The last was between Armstrong
and RCA - Sarnoff about Radio and FM see
http://www.wiredbrain.net/disintermediation.htm) A superheterodyne circuit developed by U.S. Army Signal Corps major Edwin Howard
Armstrong, 26, became the basic design for all amplitude modulation (AM) radios. It
greatly increases the selectivity and sensitivity of radio receivers over a wide band of frequencies (see 1906; FM, 1933). Radio Corp. of America (RCA) was founded by Owen D. Young (see 1919) who loans Ernst Alexanderson to RCA which will employ him as chief engineer for 5 years (see 1906). RCA acquired the Victor Co. and become a
radio-phonograph colossus but anti-trust court actions will separate RCA from GE (see
VICTROLA, 1906; NBC, 1926). David Sarnoff urges marketing of a simple "radio music
box."
The American Marconi Co. says his plan will make the radio "a ‘household
utility’ in the same sense as the piano or phonograph" (see 1912; 1920).
In order to sell the system - the NEXUM a universal communications device which works on line all the time -
dial tone connections - with video and hot internet you first go after the corporate market - CONCENTRIC
with optic fiber, T1 and DSL lines then the small business user and set up a big private network.
Then you roll
out the same high speed service for domestic users in some markets -
I am looking into it - thanks - the AOL Warner raises issuers of cable access.
Someone must know something so that cable can be used on a wide scale - AOL knows all too well that the
future of low speed mass market for their
service is very limited. I believe in wireless - optic broadband doing the last
mile via some kind of microwave radar -
The issue is China -
The PLA and post telegraph have hundred of millions of new users and can't string wires -
but can run a optic fiber backbone with radio towers CDM code or time division multiplex - either only needs a
little push to get there. What about Direct TV downlink and DSL up - these are the BIG issues. Who
controls the rules and protocols controls a lot.

The
new school
What could an relevant on-line school be like.
-
Color is better than black and white.
-
Three dimensions is better than two.
-
Round is better than flat.
-
Fast is more successful than slow.
Civilization progresses with greater literacy,
greater attention to the laws of man and nature, and greater freedom of
participation.
Current instruction is gray and flat - it needs to
be colorful and round. Instruction is slow, knowledge is cut into fragments
and reassembled, creative participation is discouraged at all levels.
The
iron law of bureaucracy operates freely in almost all schools.
Students in rows reviewing text books under the control
of an instructor is clearly colorless and flat. Every once in awhile there
is a little burst of color or a dark pit but the surface is mostly two
dimensional and the colors are black and white.
There are several clear themes as we move from two dimensions
to many:
1. ) Knowledge is not only transferred but invented
a lot of learning takes place in the process of invention
2.)
The organizing themes are tasks not subjects ,
Knowledge is organized around functions not disciplines
3.) there is creative interaction between teachers
and learners and less distinctions between actors and classes.
The word is convergence
- Technology, communications, human organization, marketing, finance, and
further explorations of the future rushing in upon us.
The NEXUM project:
http://www.wiredbrain.net/symbian.htm
A clear image:
Since the Fallow’s article almost 10 years ago http://www.wiredbrain.net/documents/logos/fallow01.txt
and fallow.txt I have a changing image of the communications in the age
of technology. I have believed the free market would produce was rational,
logical, technologically economic communications system which looked like
this:
A receiver dish on your desk or outside on the wall
of your house and office broadcasts and receives digital signals from a
transmitters in the neighborhood ( up to 30 miles away - line of sight
or maybe not ). This single connection would provide really high speed
broadband - gigs per second - cable, telephone, Internet ( converged with
TV and phone ).
The big business will be service providers doing all the
hard stuff ( software ) up line. You IP number would connect you to the
world and the world to you where ever on what ever. Your domain name would
replace phone numbers, and all the other ID problems with transactions
in electric money as the device knows who you are ( thumb print, retina
read ).
If you wanted to write a letter - using voice recognition
from your cell phone to your NEXUM ( PC network device ) and e-mail it
or print it ( using Bluetooth ) or any financial, business, personal transaction
it would fly through the air from where-ever to where-ever.
The 100’s of millions of new connections in China and
the rest of the world without wires would use the same broadband wireless
system.
The phone companies, cable companies, broadcast companies, cell
phones, and computer hardware and software would all be in the IT communications
business. It is happening - http://www.wiredbrain.net/NEXUM.htm and http://www.wiredbrain.net/symbian.htm
The billion people on the Internet we talked about
a couple of years ago ( http://www.wiredbrain.net/packets.htm are almost
here.
The Internet as the links to phones, it is here now.
The TV Internet
connection is here @home and @work. What has not as been created is bandwidth
and the NC ( NEXUM ) but they are just over the horizon, looking More and
more like the playstation II and in the $ 350 range or comes with the $
50 monthly user fees including long distance, cable channels picked off
Satellites, Internet - Video user interface etc.
Sure people will use DSL ( fairly high speed phone
on copper ) people will use two way cable, some people and business will
use direct satellite or be on optic fiber, ( people still ride horses,
use wagons, sail boats, and walk but cars and planes have most of the transport
business ) BUT VOFDM, MMDS will replace most of these wired links by wireless,
better, freer more competitive services. I can’t track down the low power
radar (MIR) time division wideband line of sight transmitter and receivers
but it is being used by the military and seems to have no limits. Optic
fiber switches are in production to handle to backbone and local nodes.
The cost of communications content is dropping faster
than hardware - more that twice as much at half the cost every 18 months
by an order of magnitude ( 10 times more capacity for 1/10th as much cost
) ( Moore’s Law 10 X )
The design of the general communications and computing
device.
Design teams of teachers ( from around the world ) and
students from anywhere working on the interface of communications technology,
processing capacity, storage and data transfer compression, marketing,
finance, human machine interface ( ergonomics http://www.wiredbrain.net/ergonomics.htm
) because the specialist now has to consider bandwidth, chip capacities,
applications, service systems, distribution systems, content and market
demand factors all in one organized package.
Management, information technology, marketing, human
resources and production need to work together. Traditional products such
as automobiles and space rockets and atomic ships has advanced some in
design integration but computers still have a way to go - the
NEXT
must leap frog current compartment thinking into
new dimensions of systems analysis.
How is systems analysis different
from what has been used in the last 40 years.
It is more colorful and has more dimensions.
It becomes much more complex where there are many clients,
with many applications, using different languages and protocols. A great
server should ask and how do we establish an interface, what language do
you use, what program do you want, what operating system does it use, and
can I remember all this the next time we make contact ?
Amazon.com has shown the way within one set of protocols
of how to be client centric. Every store both e and non-e, should be able
to track several open ended data bases - inventory, catalog, store, client,
sales person, so as to show what exists and who is buying it. Wal-mart
and Builders Square, Office supply and Sears should have a the catalog
and inventory on line at the cash registrar and on-line for the buyers
with items, pictures, prices as well as complete lists of any clients or
sales person’s recorded sales. It world make it a lot easier for contractors
or anyone buying many different items.
A friendly server would connect such data bases to
user applications such as financial records and market research. Can any
client using different tools access open records for different purposes,
in different languages ? Can suppliers or comparative shoppers or programs
that search for best buys ? How would the Nexum, a simple communications
device, use server software to find the best buy ? Who do you compare features
? Models, grades, standards, ? All kinds of applications not invented need
to glide easily into existing systems.

Color is better than black and white. Three dimensions
is better than two. Round in better than flat. Current instruction is gray
and flat - it needs to be colorful and round. Students in rows reviewing
text books under the control of an instructor is clearly colorless and
flat. Every once in awhile there is a little burst of color or a dark pit
but the surface is mostly two dimensional and the colors are black and
white.

Keywords
weirdbrain
' (wîrd) adj., weird·er, weird·est. Of, relating to,
or suggestive of the preternatural or supernatural. Of a strikingly odd
or unusual character; strange. Archaic. Of or relating to fate or the Fates.
n.
Fate; destiny.
One's assigned lot or fortune, especially when evil. Often Weird. Greek
Mythology. Roman Mythology. One of the Fates. weird'ly adv. weird'ness
n. SYNONYMS: weird, eerie, uncanny, unearthly.
These adjectives refer to
what is of a mysteriously strange, usually frightening nature. Weird may
suggest the operation of supernatural influences, but it may also be applied
to what is merely odd or unusual: “
The person of the house gave a weird
little laugh” (Charles Dickens). “
There is a weird power in a spoken word”
(Joseph Conrad). Something eerie inspires inexplicable fear or uneasiness
that seems to result from a sinister influence: “At nightfall on the marshes,
the thing was eerie and fantastic to behold” (Robert Louis Stevenson).
Uncanny refers to what is unnatural and peculiarly unsettling: “
The queer
stumps . . . had uncanny shapes, as of monstrous creatures, whose eyes
seemed to peer out at you” (John Galsworthy). Something unearthly seems
so strange and unnatural as to come from or belong to another world: “He
could hear the unearthly scream of some curlew piercing the din” (Henry
Kingsley).

Since
the late 1880s, when wireless communications were first demonstrated, all
practical uses of radio have relied on the transmission of continuous sine
waves.
The modulation of those sine waves allows the transmission and reception
of information in either amplitude (AM radio) or frequency (FM radio).
From 1890 to the present, industry has searched relentlessly for ways to
send more information more reliably. Radio researchers have evolved techniques
such as CDMA, TDMA, etc.
Introduction to CDMA
http://www.time-domain.com/technology.htmlNow,
the entire wireless landscape has changed. Larry Fullerton discovered that
single RF monocycles could be transmitted through an antenna, and by precisely
positioning these monocycles in time and then using a matched receiver
to recover the transmissions, a whole new wireless medium was created,
'Digital Pulse Wireless' - a medium that does not rely on sine waves, does
not require an assigned frequency, does not need a power amplifier, and
is so random and low powered that it is indistinguishable from noise.
The
medium does require precise pulse placement in time (pulses are positioned
with an accuracy of trillionths of a second), and it also requires a coherent
correlating receiver - a Fullerton correlator. Larry Fullerton developed
and patented the technology over the last decade.
http://lasers.llnl.gov/lasers/idp/mir/files/MIR_info.html
The technology based on pulse-echo radar, discovered around the turn of
the century. Such radar leverages the speed of light as an integral component
of its operation, measuring the echo that results when a pulse strikes
an object to determine that object's distance from the pulse source.
Conventional
radar systems transmit several thousand such pulses per second. MIR, by
contrast, sends out over 1 million.
"In
the past, people used radio waves, but nobody cared how fast they were
going," McEwan said. "Now the consumer can use devices that actually clock
the speed of light in the form of microwave propagation, allowing them
to do things that they could never do before."
http://www.eet.com/news/97/937news/sensorapps.html
As
I understand IT , a new type of technology using Time Synchronization Systems
Through DCF77 or GPS signal and using a 10,000 MHTZ chip can transmit MEGA-BITS
the last mile. In synergy with solid state atomic level MEMORY TECHNOLOGY
data moves from FROM MEGA-BIT TO GIGA-BIT per second. High Speed processors
adapted from TERCOM - terrain contour matching 10,000 MHz chip used
in the cruise missile terrain following "smart bombs" or using guided radio
waves or laser beam targeting based on rapid image recognition.

NEW
DEVELOPMENTS IN STORAGEAccording to CMR (
http://www.cmruk.com/cmrinventions.html ), Professor Ted Williams and
his team are able to store 86 gigabytes per square centimeter, and to read
and write this data at 100 megabits/second. While few details are available
while their patents are pending, CMR does indicate that the process, funded
in part by the UK Department of Trade and Industry, exploits a new family
of metal alloys to create, "...a magneto-optical system not dissimilar

a different operating approach."
The
news tracker connection then runs everything
.
The Star Office 5.1
is a good example. It runs on open platforms and can be updated, reconfigured
to include sound and video telephones, and doesn't need to be completely
installed on every terminal but can run off the system network.
In
doing web pages, Netscape Composer, MS FrontPage, and Star Office use different
forms of code, HTTP ( hypertext ) different Java scripts, and can mess
each other and the author up. Now since they ( Netscape ( AOL ) and
Sun - part of the NOISE group, Netscape, Oracle, IBM, Sun and everyone
else - ) are enemies they may intend to screw each other with the author
in the middle.
How
about http://www.wiredbrain.net/battle.wav
and
too many other changes that work here but not there - audio plug-ins, ActiveX,
virtual machines, XML, etc. Etc..
This
is why the complex stuff has to be up-stream on the server if the communications
systems can communicate with each other.
The system knows where you
are (GPS), who you are ( IP) and what you are ( kind of device you are
using ) and what you want - voice, e-mail, conference, word processor,
accounts, pay a bill, collect a bill etc.
The
standards have to be set by SOMEONE - it can’t be done by a voluntary committee
as in the good old non commercial days when the DOD and NSF controlled
the net. It can’t be done by government ( too slow ) IT has to be global
- the EU and Asia are involved - sometimes well ahead.
The WWW system standard
was set at CERN - and the UN or a global trade or international postal
telecommunications agreement could set up a fast working body the approve
PROTOCALS. Now MS does the global job but is clearly not neutral or trustworthy,
since it is worth a good share of the almost trillion dollars in systems
sales.

XML: the most powerful productivity tool ever imaged:
I can write this text, I could insert picture or sound. I can create links ( hyper- links ) or imbedded functions ( scripts in several languages ) - e-mail it or post it to a web site that has scripts to run different functions. It is getting easier but still has lots of bugs.
Microsoft is again in a catch up position. Power corrupts and the lack of real time painful competition is what corrupted power means.
The NOISE group of Netscape, Oracle, IBM, Sun MicroSystems Corel and Everyone else had the model right years ago. With bandwidth ( such as private networks - intranets, extra-nets, and other high speed networks ) the network becomes the system. Each member of the system - clients and servers are integrated through common languages or objects.
When you open a web page, hypertext and imbedded objects can connect functions - edit, ( word processing ) analyze ( search, data bases ) and interoperate with each other using voice, images, data and text.
The idea is that a person interested in the service manual for a piece of equipment or operational system - a service engineer or client at a PC, or in the field using a lap top, wireless phone or other device not only could look up information but order parts, update systems, see graphic display, talk to experts, hold a meeting between the consultant and the providers and the home system would gather information about what is going on and what works and what doesn’t.
Providers of services - software, engineering, analysis, B2B, OEM, etc.. could all deal with each other using different languages, platforms and systems. This is the most powerful productivity tool ever imaged. System can adjust and improve in real time. A contractor in the field can order supplies from the best low cost provider, check delivery, pay accounts, check balances, talk to sub-contractors, revise plans and schedules, have the design changed and fixed, and 1000 and more details. No one can build a house without a cell phone - can any service be provided without real time communications ?
Who can do this unless they spend lots of money for services and software ?
The service providers can MS.net, oracle.net, IBM.net Sun.net, AOL.net, apple.net, excite.net, go.net, yahoo.net, - plug and play just like the cell phone. For $ 50 a month your ISP becomes an interactive system to other services.
The contractor enters his phone book, calendar, and buys services from engineers, accountants, and get free services from suppliers, banks, sub contractors, etc. Those connected have a great advantage over those out of the loop.

More power in a Palm Pilot than on the Apollo 10:
The accelerating rate of change forecast more change in the next century than in the last 10,000 years.
The increases in the rate of change between paradigms began at about 5000 years as ideas spread slowly - domestic animals, agriculture, metallurgy, then cities, bureaucracy and empires - then 500 years - printing, navigation, mathematics, deep mining up to the 18th century.
Then 100 years with potatoes, steam and steel, electric and chemical, communications and computers. Now in 25 years ideas are activated that used to take a century, then 12.5 years will have a century of 20th century progress, then 6.25 years what used to take a century and so forth.
The acceleration of the rate of change has been going on for a long time - it just gets faster and faster.
Therefore if Nano computer would have taken 50 years in the past it can be done in 12.5 years.
The speed of application of stem cells to build body parts, cloned cells used as normal therapies, use of immunization in treatments of ongoing virus infections and cancers, genetic engineered plants and animals as a normal accepted process, all being implemented at great speed. Even in a slow bulky industries such as cars - the fuel cell will move along more quickly than such technologies would have in the past. This really effects markets, marketing, and business planning in very fundamental ways.

Windows in the cloudy sky:
What Microsoft wants to do is control the servers with a MS provided next, next generation NT platform operating system called XML but not open and universal.
The .net system works with devices that have .net codes built it. Microsoft products will run on .net as a server - client interface - XML files, XML data base, XML storage, XML index, id, calendar, updates, notifications, out in the cloud on MS XML server software doing object imbedded codes.
The applications become notations or services on the page.
The universal canvas API. Hardware drives, across all the devices and the .net controller in the a cloud. Development applications are built on the XML kits connected to the browser. This was Netscape’s vision from the beginning.. This is why MS had to kill Netscape and the NOISE group and what the browser wars was really about.
The platform is in the sky - Microsoft idea is the new version of what Netscape and SUN - the NOISE group ( Netscape, Oracle, IBM, Sun, and Everyone else ) started talking about five years ago.
The server ( web site ) company internets, the ISP, wireless devices, i-appliances, game panels, can all use audio, video, photograph, office applications - word process, presentation, spread sheets, data bases, in a interactive way using a server AGENT or personalized options given the application, the device used, and the pattern of application - on a rental or fee-for-service basics. In other words all the complex stuff is up stream - rich standards based on XML works between platforms and programs but at the server not on the PC - This is the critical and profound change.
The server in the cloud does the transfer and integration - is the platform in the sky that can work with all kinds of devices. It can take a record from one place in one format and uses it in another program in a different format guided by the smart agent. Information can be used almost anywhere from almost anywhere.
The devices can use keyboards, mouse, voice, hand writing, file transfer, clip board, as inputs as well as agent intelligence on the server and user interface.

U.S. scientists closer to making new type
of supercomputer
By Reuters
Special to CNET News.com
March 15, 2000, 1:55 p.m. PT
LONDON--U.S. scientists moved a step closer to developing a
super-computer after looking at a branch of physics that researches the
physics of particles invisible to the human eye.
"In the language of quantum information science, we have realized a
four-quantum-bit logic gate. This system is relevant for the future development of
quantum information technology," the scientists said in the journal Nature.
Conventional computers are based on binary
"switches," or bits, which can either be switched on
or off. Computers carry out calculations utilizing these
switches.
Quantum theory holds that entities such as atoms do
not decide whether they exist in an on or off state
until they are measured or interact with something.
When they are not interacting, the atoms exist in both
states at once--a quantum superposition--said
Christopher Monroe, a researcher at the National
Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
Computers based on quantum physics would
therefore be able to have switches or "qbits" that exist
in both on and off states simultaneously.
A string of these quantum bits would consequently offer every possible on-off
combination and could carry out every calculation a computer needed
simultaneously, hugely increasing the computer's power and memory.

Bell Labs is known for revolutions.
In 1947 it was the transistor. Today it is photonics. Called the second silicon revolution, optical fiber systems are in an explosive state of development, reminiscent of the earlier days of the electronics industry.
Over the past two decades, since fiber-optic communications first began to appear, the carrying capacity of fiber has increased at a faster rate than Moore's law. Now the wavelength-division multiplexing revolution has accelerated that capacity even more, while introducing the flexibility
of wavelength-based routing. Forged from an interdisciplinary mix of semiconductor diode lasers, micromachine technology and fundamental advances in optical glass technology, terahertz networking has arrived well ahead of schedule.
It's a major revolution riding on a broad-based industry serving the fundamental human need to communicate.
"A length of fiber long enough to circle the globe three times is produced every day, and if you extrapolate current trends to 2010, every one of the 6 billion people on earth will have a bandwidth capability equivalent to high-definition television," said Alistair Glass, director of photonics research and development at Lucent Technologies Bell Laboratories. Arriving at Bell Labs in 1967, Glass' career spans the development and implementation of fiber-optic communications systems.
Major breakthrough
"When I arrived, the major breakthrough was the first continuously operating laser, and it didn't run for very long-only a few minutes," Glass recalled.
"This was the time of the early hero experiments and the demands kept increasing and increasing on these devices.
There was always that pressure, but the interest in the marketplace represented a dramatic change."
There was always a strong demand to increase the performance of any device.
At first the research arm of AT&T, Bell Labs enjoyed a special status after its founding in the 1920s. Because of the monopoly granted AT&T by the government, in the interests of standardizing the telephone system, the lab could both be part of a commercial operation and play the open role of a national laboratory.
"At that time, there was not much connectivity with business- it was very much intellectually driven. We wanted to be leaders in all the fields relevant to communications," Glass said. But in the early 1980s two developments dramatically accelerated photonics research: commercial long-haul fiber-optic systems began to be installed commercially, and AT&T's monopoly was dissolved by the government, with parts of Bell Labs spun off into other companies as part of a complex divestiture of the telecommunications giant. "We were suddenly handed the mandate to develop commercial products out of our research efforts," he said.
The lab responded with a broad attack on optical communications systems. Innovations in the basic fiber, laser diodes to power them, and integrated optoelectronic components to interface with electronic data systems followed. "Since then, particularly with the founding of Lucent Technologies, optics has been accelerating at an incredible rate," Glass said.
For transporting data over long distances, fiber systems proved to be irresistible. Large bundles of copper wire could be replaced by slender silicon fibers in a process of "demassification" usually associated with the electronics industry. While the debate continues over whether optical interconnect is a viable alternative to electrical wiring inside of computers, the issue has been definitively resolved for long-distance communications. But optical interconnect inside the box may eventually succumb to a long-term trend. Recent developments in metropolitan-area networks suggest that fiber optics is riding a scaling law similar to the shrinking VLSI circuit, and the scaling rate appears to be steeper.
The rapid deployment of fiber optics received an even bigger jolt with a repeat of the '80s scenario in the 1990s. Bell Labs was again transferred in 1996 to another entity-Lucent Technologies-and made the centerpiece of a startup with considerable economic resources. Also brewing in photonics labs was a revolutionary technology called dense wavelength-division multiplexing (DWDM), which has allowed the carrying capacity of optical fiber to ramp up at an astonishing rate. "In the mid-90s it became a fever. We went from eight to 16 to 32 wavelengths on a single fiber and our latest products use 400. Now we have just demonstrated 1,000 wavelengths," Glass noted.
http://www.wiredbrain.net/dwdm.htm
DWDM uses individual segments of the optical spectrum to multiplex signals on a fiber.
The idea is recent, considered at first to be a laboratory curiosity since practical systems were already multiplexing channels with a time-division technique. Such synchronous optical networks (Sonet) had been able to extend the capacity of optical fiber and were a welcome development.
The wavelength-division multiplexing route has turned out to have far more potential: Bell Labs researchers recently demonstrated a DWDM transmission system capable of sending a terabit of data per second down a fiber. "That represents the entire world's Internet on a single glass fiber," Glass said.
The DWDM revolution has been extremely swift. When Lucent Technologies was established, DWDM was still at the laboratory demonstration stage. While the idea is simple, turning it into practical optical communications systems required a multifaceted development. Multiple-wavelength laser-diode systems and new types of fiber able to carry the multiple wavelength signals without crosstalk had to be developed. And some means of collectively amplifying multiwavelength signals had to be invented. While those problems were effectively solved in a short time, it wasn't easy. Indeed, one outstanding problem has never been solved: how to regenerate multiple wavelength signals.
Large areas
One consequence of that missing solution is the fact that DWDM can only be implemented on campus-wide or metropolitan areas. By doping fiber with the rare-earth element erbium, it is possible to build a simple light amplifier that is essentially a laser. When a multiple wavelength signal is passed through an erbium fiber loop and optically pumped, it emerges unchanged except that it is at a higher energy level. One nice aspect of this operation is that the actual content of the wavelength channels is irrelevant to the amplification process. Unfortunately, to recondition optical signals, it becomes necessary to decode their content and relaunch them. Thus signal regeneration, which is essential in long-haul networks, is still unavailable to DWDM.
Balancing this deficiency in very long transmissions is a new wave of all-optical switching elements that are able to add or remove a wavelength channel from a fiber.
These add-drop multiplexers offer a high-speed switching function that could not be duplicated with electronics, and have made metropolitan-area networks into a unique flexible, high-throughput communications medium.
This essentially new form of photonics technology is spawning an industry in optical switching components. "Now people can invent a novel device that relates to communications and it will find its way into products extremely rapidly-less than a year," said Glass. "We are now in a situation of 'invent on demand' where as soon as a problem is perceived, someone immediately comes up with a solution."
This explosive growth poses a formidable challenge to electronics technology. "If you compare the speed of silicon chips versus the capacity of optical fiber communications, fiber optics is going significantly faster than electronics, and where the fiber ends-that becomes a significant bottleneck." Glass is convinced that fiber to the home office and then fiber to the home are just around the corner. "We have a demonstration project going with Bell South where we have wired up a suburban neighborhood with little fiber-optic network units on the side of each house," he said.
Dealing with the high volumes of data that are coming off optical fibers will present a big challenge to electronics. Fortunately, wavelength-division multiplexing eases that task since each wavelength can be processed simultaneously by different circuits. Ultimately, electronics and optics technologies offer complementary abilities: "Optics is ideal for transporting data from point A to point B, but it is weak in the area of logic and switching," Glass pointed out. "That is where we will need electronics."

The world economic summit is less interesting because the big and powerful
are less interesting.
The rate of technological has multiplied on itself because computers can work faster and communications are better therefore computers and communications becomes faster and faster. My guess is that optic fiber to the door will make on-air or cable broadcasting uneconomic - video on demand will replace it - the program producers will distribute directly to the consumer - like in MP3 - the video store goes on line -
The move producer - such as Blair Witch could be sold directly - same with any show or news or whatever - so there goes networks - maybe even magazine writers with direct sales -
Wireless systems can get up to 400 kps to a million somehow - http://www.wiredbrain.net/symbian.htm for a lot of applications that is fine - and OS chip technology will make greater use of less and less with less energy and heat - more light and lighter -

If I were a high technology company - in information systems, computers,
communications or any part of the 25 % of the economy - and almost all the growth sector - now including networks - broadcasting - publishing - entertainment - music - video - electronics - service - I would have a venture capital connection so I could send people out and find out what is going on.
The battle for the airwaves is not just about broadband but the content - software and services. If you put a few hundred thousand in interesting technologies you gain access to information.
There is almost a certainty that something will come from left field and change all the rules again.
Cable is too slow and greedy.
The telephone companies too slow and bureaucratic. Both have shown a preference for short term gains rather than long term survival. Microsoft is showing the same brain arthritis - inflexible - such as IBM was - GM and other big and rich - missed every important technology - but could buy it after it had been proven. That may or may not be possible. .

The most common wireless transmission standard, GSM, which stands for
Global Systems for Mobile communications, is particularly prevalent in
Europe and Asia. According to market research firm Dataquest, nearly 157
million GSM-based mobile phones will be shipped worldwide this year,
compared with shipments of about 43 million CDMA cell phones.
But many industry observers say CDMA, strongest in North America, is more
efficient and can handle Internet-based transmissions better.
There is also time division and dense systems - I do believe the key is China - the PLA and post telegraph - along with the EU will set the standards.

So Where is the Wireless Web?
by Dee McVicker
February 11, 2000
Network operations are currently divided into three technology families, code division multiple access (CDMA), time division multiple access (TDMA), and global system for mobile communication (GSM).

If we gave you 800-kilobit packet-data service as a user, we could fit 100 voice calls into that same bandwidth,"
Japan's NTT DoCoMo doesn't have the same concern, one reason why it's not hesitating to jump into 3G. Japanese and European operators running out of bandwidth can license new spectrum for 3G; U.S. operators cannot.
Eventually, the goal is "third generation," or 3G, devices (digital cell phones were the second generation) that will deliver data rates of up to 2 Mbps. Just for comparison, current cellular-network transfer rates plod along at 9.6 Kbps or 14.4 Kbps, at best, which is OK for e-mail and some of the new Internet services being lauded by cell-phone carriers. Phone.com's (PHCM) Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) microbrowser is helping squeeze the Web into these pipes, but that's a stopgap measure.
Wireless data is hot. You can't open a magazine without reading about microbrowsers on cell phones or turn on a television without seeing an advertisement for the Internet-in-your-pocket.
Japan is blasting away, with all jets driving, toward the new wireless Internet. As far back as October 19, 1998, NTT Mobile Communications Network Inc. (NTT DoCoMo, Tokyo), Japan's leading mobile operator, piloted a cellular network that joined together the cell phone and motion video.
Expected to launch commercially in March 2001, the network and others like it will give birth to a new wireless-communications era. For NTT DoCoMo's 3 million "i-mode" cell-phone subscribers (roughly 10 percent of the company's total customer base), for example, it will mean wireless high-speed Internet news, banking, video streaming, travel reservations, Web radio, and a slew of other services.

The following image need to be firmly in mind to understand the AOL/ Time
Warner deal - and the frenzy going on in telecommunications and computer
industries.
The time frame is about 10 years - the impact comes first in
Northern Europe - Singapore - parts of the states - parts of Hong Kong and
China - Japan - Taiwan - South East Asia - Australia ( already with system
under construction )

There is optic to the door provided by the utility company. It is a common carrier
providing:
TV programs on demand on a big flat screen digital high definition system -
programs are recorded and played as you desire, when you desire on any of the
screens around the wired house you desire.
There is no need for program schedules
- movies and other video content are downloaded on demand from world wide
services. Some charge fees some are free with or without ads. You can watch the
BBC news or CNN or C-span type programs any time.
There is no need for movie
or music channels since you can order anything you want anytime.
The same with music, either rented for a limited number of replays, or purchased and
transferred to CD or DVD -
The same with interactive media - games and
educational services for the wired " smart" house - When you leave the security
system goes on - with complete radar monitoring of any motion with recording of
motion, the heat or AC is turned down, when you click from your cell phone that
you are returning home - the lights and heat or AC is reset, the music turned on and
the doors unsecured.
The cell phone - palm pilot - personal digital assistant works at 400 kbps to 4 Mbs
with GPS, e-mail and other web content, fold up or screen keyboards, long life
batteries, high gain reception of dense multiplex time division wideband GS3 codes.
Europe, with its common GSM standard, will likely usher in "3G" technologies (with their 2 megabit/second
data to pockets) years before it happens in the U.S.' fragmented cellular environment. And fast wireless data
will surely usher in many new Opportunities. -
http://www.pathfinder.com/fortune/technology/2000/01/24/ega.html).
The home terminal - NEXUM - provides wireless ( bluetooth ) connection to the
mobile elements, TV, music, games, information systems with voice commands. You
say " Write a note" and dictate as it appears on the big screen. You correct with the
portable keyboard that is used for interactive TV.
The master computer works
within a network "master server in the sky" to provide services you need or enjoy.
Shopping, banking, tele-communities, video conferences, design and research,
games and social activities, travel and adventure, and tuned to your interests and
desires.
The master server bills for usage in micro pennies for "extras" but charges a
flat fee for "basic services". Several master server companies compete for services
on the common carrier -
The services are not tied to the wire - optic cable - so there are two bills - one for
connection services - the wireless and wired ( optic ) and another from the service
company that passes along charges for rentals, fee for service charges, software
licenses, communications on and off net, as we do today with local and long distance
phone services and premium cable services.
Where is the money made ? Optic fiber hardware - mobile hardware, utility
company right-of-way and network services, the "general utility service company"
maybe AOL, Microsoft, NOISE group ( Netscape, Oracle, IBM, Sun
Microsystems and everyone else ) Amazon, or others which provides the interface
between the user and service providers - banks, insurance, finance and markets,
shopping, software and music and games and movies and communications, and
entertainment, security, smart home management, and on and on...
The super on-line
service using optic fiber to the door.

All Boiled down on CONVERGENCE AOL: the super market of the world
What does AOL Time Warner ( and Wal-Mart, & some Computer terminal
company and cable modem or broadband connection ) mean for the future of
global society ? What is the image they pursue ? http://www.wiredbrain.net/symbian.htm
CONVERGENCE: Interactive television, combining audio telephone, video
conference and cable or satellite TV, video on demand, all designed to
advertise and sell on the spot all kinds of good and services.
What is called "entertainment" on television is different from plays,
or movies or theme parks or games or sports because the role of "content"
is only to attract an audience so they can be sold something.
The job of
television is sales - not news or information or entertainment which are
only provided so people watch and can be sold something.
The role of AOL
/ Time Warner will be not only to sell others goods but direct sales.
Their
dream is the click and buy advantages of two way communications.
In the process cable or other broadband can replace a good share of
long distance voice, video rentals, VPN virtual private networks, if and
only if, the broadband connections really works then personal computers
become network devices or http://www.wiredbrain.net/nano.htm
a multipurpose communications and entertainment console.
AOL Time Warner believe that whatever the method for the broadband connections
they will control the content.
The contact rates - for cable, telephone,
Internet and video on demand provide cash flows that support the capital
for improved networks and on-line sales provide the profits.
It's not only that you can buy your tooth paste from the commercial
( click here to add it to your Wal-mart order ) but you might get free
samples for filling out forms. You can add with a click to your grocery
list. People really will buy travel deals, change banks or brokers, buy
records after getting MP3 samples, select household gadgets, buy gifts,
use auctions, even pick appliances and cars.
They will seek better mortgage
and insurance rates, look for a new house, and a thousand other products
and services.
http://www.wiredbrain.net/disintermedation.htm
disintermediation means becoming the middle person between the buyer
and seller. On-line systems such as Amazon.com means direct sales take
on a whole new meaning. I would look for a Amazon Wal-mart connection if
not merger.

Broadband Race Is on the Rise in Hong Kong
Last week, the Hong Kong government took another step to open further the telecom market to competition by issuing a total of 17 fixed network licenses (5 licenses for wireless local fixed telecommunications network services (FTNS), and another 12 licenses for external FTNS using satellites).
The licenses will last for 15 years, with an option to extend for another 15 years. In addition, the government has agreed to issue an FTNS license to Hong Kong Cable TV to provide telecom services over its hybrid fiber-coaxial cable networks.

The battle of the air waves is just not between cable modems ( which don't work
very well ) and DSL which has many problems and is priced too high. Optic fiber to
the door and new wideband line of sight or some technology using power lines may
jump ahead. It's a tough call to invest billions per day.
The dense urban markets, the rural markets, the issues in China and other world markets, all may not have the
same solution. Satellite systems have a role, but it seems the analysis is too tightly drawn in the box - there are sure to be out of the box answers.
``Wireless Internet devices will not only capture some existing PC applications but
introduce brand new applications that the desk-top PC has no way to handle today,''
Engibous told a Tokyo seminar on the company's strategy.
``I think the availability of a wireless device that is online all the time with broadband data capability...offers the possibility of applications that Silicon Valley'' is just beginning to dream about, he added.
With next-generation mobile phone services, users will be able to surf the Web,
check and respond to e-mail, conduct videoconferences and use new mobile
services such as e-commerce, he said.
Next-generation mobile phone services will be offered in Japan beginning in the
spring of 2001, and later in other parts of the world.

Broadband in the Local Loop 98:
Cable Modem Madness vs. xDSL Dementia
http://www.fwdconcepts.com/brdbnd98.htm
New Study Concludes G.lite not enough to overcome advantages
and head start of cable modems
http://www.fwdconcepts.com/press13.htm
According to the study, cable modems will win the lion's share of the residential
broadband market, outnumbering DSL modems 5:1 in North American and 2.6:1
worldwide by the year 2003.
The five-year growth rate for cable modems is
forecast to be 93% in North America and 114% in other regions.
The Study concludes that the rollout plans announced by the telcos are unrealistically
optimistic, that the services are too high-priced for the mainstream residential
market, and face many technical and regulatory hurdles--oft overlooked in the
excitement of bringing in a new age of high speed IP-based telecommunications.
Forward Concepts also believes that splitterless DSL still has many technical
unknowns, and that its suitability as a "universal" service is still open to question.
DSL services also jeopardize existing, highly profitable, data communications
services, further reducing motivation for rollout by the telcos.
The cable companies,
in contrast, see IP-video, IP telephony, Internet access, and remote LAN access as
pure incremental upside revenue opportunities, unencumbered by existing services.

AOL can do what Sears did.
The Sears brands were produced by OEM ( original
equipment manufactures ) with Sears keeping a very tight control of quality
and margins. Many of their providers became dependents. B2B means the intermediary
can arrange shipments from the provider to the buyer and become the super
market of the world.
Also some new technology may come along to change all the rules
http://www.zdnet.com/intweek/stories/news/0,4164,2270684.html
"Nortel has used its technology, called Digital PowerLine (DPL), successfully in European and Asian markets. Currently, the company has agreements with 10 non-U.S. utilities that serve 35 million homes, says Dan Middleton, director of carrier packet solutions at Nortel's power line networks division.
If physicist Luke Stewart can do what he says he can send voice, video, and data thousands of miles over electric lines
at the speed of light he will produce perhaps the most significant development in communications since Alexander
Graham Bell.
That could take the company he cofounded in North Dallas, Media Fusion L.L.C., to heights greater than Microsoft in both
earnings and market value.

A short introduction to quantum computation
Max PLANCK and Heisenberg, and Erwin SCHRÖDINGER's wave mechanics,
and Born, are the people of the 20th century who will most influence the
21 st. We will see the application of quantum computer fairly soon. It
could ( so will ) have some level of self awareness we call consciousness
http://www.qubit.org/intros/comp/comp.html
Being in two places at the same time - or going from here to there without
passing through the space between.
The nature of matter at this level is
little energy spots rather than matter as we experience it, energy that
change quantum states - transform from one state to another instantly.
"
The history of computer technology has involved a sequence of changes
from one type of physical realization to another --- from gears to relays
to valves to transistors to integrated circuits and so on ...
On the atomic scale matter obeys the rules of quantum mechanics,
which are quite different from the classical rules that determine the properties
of conventional logic gates. So if computers are to become smaller in the
future, new, quantum technology must replace or supplement what we have
now.
The point is, however, that quantum technology can offer much more
than cramming more and more bits to silicon and multiplying the clock-speed
of microprocessors. It can support entirely new kind of computation with
qualitatively new algorithms based on quantum principles!
Three basic categories of elementary particles were ultimately distinguished:
leptons, quarks, and bosons. Leptons and quarks are FERMIONS, the basic
constituents of nuclear and atomic structure, or MATTER; BOSONS are the
particles that transmit the fundamental FORCES of nature between fermions.
The smallest class of elementary particles is that of the massless bosons,
which comprises the PHOTON, gluon, W AND Z PARTICLES, and the hypothetical
graviton.
The lepton class contains twelve particles: the electron, muon,
tauon, and their antiparticles, and the neutrino or antineutrino associated
with each.
The QUARKS, the third class, also number twelve: the whimsically
named up, down, charm, strange, top (or truth), and bottom (or beauty)
quarks and their antiparticles. Quarks are always found in pairs or triplets
with other quarks or antiquarks to form particles called hadrons.
In the begining there was the big bang.
Then all was
dark for awhile.
The force of gravaty produced matter and stars and light.
Most of the stuff remained dark with antimatter and antigravity.
The mind
of the universe moves from simple to complex, in a pattern of relationships
too complex to happen purely by chance.
The system desired to become aware
of itself or there would be no point in the exercise.
Elementary particles interact with one another through the four fundamental
forces: GRAVITATION, electromagnetism, WEAK INTERACTION, and STRONG INTERACTION.
Gravitation is experienced by all particles of known matter and anti-gravidy
created the asymmetrical forces that created the universe, electromagnetism
is experienced only by charged particles, such as the electron, proton,
and muon. Hadrons and leptons, including the electron, muon, and the neutrinos,
participate in the weak interaction associated with particle decay.
The
strong interaction is responsible for the structure of the atomic nucleus,
and only hadrons participate in it.

Borders, periphery, frontiers:
Life and cognizance exists on the edge of quantum
and classical physics.
The very small ( nano ) works by most extraordinary
rules - objects have properties that allow them to move from here to there
without going through the intermediate space. Time is not linear and space
bends. Objects themselves appear, take on properties, and then change their
character and reappears in a different form.
At the atomic and molecular level the connections can
be open and creative rather than mechanical and determined. Uncertainty
is a fundamental prerequisite of creativity and life itself.
A really clever computer working with uncertainly could
work at this level and have some sort of consciousness. This would be an
interesting invention of this century.

People who purchase a PC with the belief that
computer literacy is not necessary are kidding themselves. Still, millions
of people, including my grandparents, are buying PCs with the mistaken
notion that they're no more difficult to operate than VCRs. Many PC owners
don't know how to do the basic tasks, such as installing software and hardware
and defragmenting a disk drive. And God help them if they ever have to
reinstall the operating system. Making the PC easier to maintain would
require the companies that produce the operating systems, software and
hardware to work together in harmony. This will never happen.
It's a problem crying out for a solution. And it's
not hard to imagine one: What if I told you that I could provide you with
a solid-state device a quarter of the size of a PC that had no moving parts
to break? You could run 50 software titles such as Word, WordPerfect, Lotus
SmartSuite, Quattro Pro and Quicken, as well as games. You would never
have to upgrade those applications because they would be upgraded for you.
With this device, you could watch more than 175 cable channels and select
from thousands of movie titles that you could watch either on the machine
or on the TV in your living room.
This device would have a hard drive so large that you
could never fill it up. And you never would have to back up files again
because they would be backed up for you every night. If lightning hit this
device while you were using it out by the pool, you might lose some hair
and skin, but you wouldn't lose data—and I could overnight you another
machine.
There would be no problems with an operating system, hardware
drivers or other software. You would simply plug it into your cable box,
and you're ready to go.
Services for the masses
In the near future, services such as these will
replace the PC for millions of people who were never cut out to be PC administrators.
Thin-client operating systems, such as Citrix MetaFrame running on MS Terminal
Server, combined with ISDN, ADSL or cable modem Internet access, will inevitably
be the basis of a virtual PC service that will revolutionize the industry.
Instead of buying a PC, you would pay the company a
monthly fee, and the company would send you a Winterm device that plugs
into your new high-bandwidth Internet connection, which links to its service.
After powering it on, you would simply hit "connect" and your personalized
GUI desktop would pop up on the screen. You could instantly run hundreds
of applications without installing anything. Any time you saved files,
they'd actually be saved to a server's hard drives, which would be backed
up every night. Combine these services with an e-mail account, and watch
PC sales plummet. After all, who would want to buy a PC with software that
had to be upgraded every year, if you could hire a service to take care
of the mess? Many corporations, tired of the cost and IS staff required
to manage hundreds of PCs, would jump on it.
The technology to build a virtual PC service is here
today. Other technologies, such as movies on demand, are probably a few
years out.
The advent of virtual computing will shift the entire PC infrastructure
with such momentum that the PC as we know it today will be used only by
a group of oddballs: "computer" people.

The Batle of the Air waves
What is GS3 ( Global System 3 ) for MS that Bill is going to do 100 % of the time ? - first there was the
mainframe and IBM - then the PC and MS - now the nexum - with MS-2 a marketing and communications
empire??
The keys are both the hand held portable GMS and the home appliance - the universal
communications device that runs as a terminal - software ( by MS ) and OS by MS - to provide operations on a
rental or fixed fee for service system - It owns the pipe - it owns the birds - it owns the OS - but provides
content and services for all ( Bill's idea of open systems ) This is where AOL should have been going rather than
content which is begging for distribution. Content must have eyeballs - but the owner of the pipe and OS is
KING !

McCaw and Bill still think with Teledesic, ICO Global, Nextel Nextlink etc. and create a last mile system build
on optic fiber with a wireless last mile - Time division hardware is out there -
I should mention the NEXUM (
http://www.wiredbrain.net/nexum.htm )
The idea is simple but the roll out
complex because of billions in hardware. A high capacity satellite link to optic fiber - to wireless for the last mile
- data ( high speed internet and VPN ) video and telephone i.e. voice
Why isn't AOL in this kind of deal rather than Warner and cable ? McCaw knows cable and believes it will be
by passed ? This is the battle of the century - the new war of the AirWaves - (
The last was between Armstrong
and RCA - Sarnoff about Radio and FM see
http://www.wiredbrain.net/disintermediation.htm) A superheterodyne circuit developed by U.S. Army Signal Corps major Edwin Howard
Armstrong, 26, became the basic design for all amplitude modulation (AM) radios. It
greatly increases the selectivity and sensitivity of radio receivers over a wide band of frequencies (see 1906; FM, 1933). Radio Corp. of America (RCA) was founded by Owen D. Young (see 1919) who loans Ernst Alexanderson to RCA which will employ him as chief engineer for 5 years (see 1906). RCA acquired the Victor Co. and become a
radio-phonograph colossus but anti-trust court actions will separate RCA from GE (see
VICTROLA, 1906; NBC, 1926). David Sarnoff urges marketing of a simple "radio music
box."
The American Marconi Co. says his plan will make the radio "a ‘household
utility’ in the same sense as the piano or phonograph" (see 1912; 1920).
In order to sell the system - the NEXUM a universal communications device which works on line all the time -
dial tone connections - with video and hot internet you first go after the corporate market - CONCENTRIC
with optic fiber, T1 and DSL lines then the small business user and set up a big private network.
Then you roll
out the same high speed service for domestic users in some markets -
I am looking into it - thanks - the AOL Warner raises issuers of cable access.
Someone must know something so that cable can be used on a wide scale - AOL knows all too well that the
future of low speed mass market for their
service is very limited. I believe in wireless - optic broadband doing the last
mile via some kind of microwave radar -
The issue is China -
The PLA and post telegraph have hundred of millions of new users and can't string wires -
but can run a optic fiber backbone with radio towers CDM code or time division multiplex - either only needs a
little push to get there. What about Direct TV downlink and DSL up - these are the BIG issues. Who
controls the rules and protocols controls a lot.

The
new school
What could an relevant on-line school be like.
-
Color is better than black and white.
-
Three dimensions is better than two.
-
Round is better than flat.
-
Fast is more successful than slow.
Civilization progresses with greater literacy,
greater attention to the laws of man and nature, and greater freedom of
participation.
Current instruction is gray and flat - it needs to
be colorful and round. Instruction is slow, knowledge is cut into fragments
and reassembled, creative participation is discouraged at all levels.
The
iron law of bureaucracy operates freely in almost all schools.
Students in rows reviewing text books under the control
of an instructor is clearly colorless and flat. Every once in awhile there
is a little burst of color or a dark pit but the surface is mostly two
dimensional and the colors are black and white.
There are several clear themes as we move from two dimensions
to many:
1. ) Knowledge is not only transferred but invented
a lot of learning takes place in the process of invention
2.)
The organizing themes are tasks not subjects ,
Knowledge is organized around functions not disciplines
3.) there is creative interaction between teachers
and learners and less distinctions between actors and classes.
The word is convergence
- Technology, communications, human organization, marketing, finance, and
further explorations of the future rushing in upon us.

transmitters in the neighborhood ( up to 30 miles away - line of sight
or maybe not ). This single connection would provide really high speed
broadband - gigs per second - cable, telephone, Internet ( converged with
TV and phone ).
The big business will be service providers doing all the
hard stuff ( software ) up line. You IP number would connect you to the
world and the world to you where ever on what ever. Your domain name would
replace phone numbers, and all the other ID problems with transactions
in electric money as the device knows who you are ( thumb print, retina
read ).
If you wanted to write a letter - using voice recognition
from your cell phone to your NEXUM ( PC network device ) and e-mail it
or print it ( using Bluetooth ) or any financial, business, personal transaction
it would fly through the air from where-ever to where-ever.
The 100’s of millions of new connections in China and
the rest of the world without wires would use the same broadband wireless
system.
The phone companies, cable companies, broadcast companies, cell
phones, and computer hardware and software would all be in the IT communications
business. It is happening - http://www.wiredbrain.net/NEXUM.htm and http://www.wiredbrain.net/symbian.htm
The billion people on the Internet we talked about
a couple of years ago ( http://www.wiredbrain.net/packets.htm are almost
here.
The Internet as the links to phones, it is here now.
The TV Internet
connection is here @home and @work. What has not as been created is bandwidth
and the NC ( NEXUM ) but they are just over the horizon, looking More and
more like the playstation II and in the $ 350 range or comes with the $
50 monthly user fees including long distance, cable channels picked off
Satellites, Internet - Video user interface etc.
Sure people will use DSL ( fairly high speed phone
on copper ) people will use two way cable, some people and business will
use direct satellite or be on optic fiber, ( people still ride horses,
use wagons, sail boats, and walk but cars and planes have most of the transport
business ) BUT VOFDM, MMDS will replace most of these wired links by wireless,
better, freer more competitive services. I can’t track down the low power
radar (MIR) time division wideband line of sight transmitter and receivers
but it is being used by the military and seems to have no limits. Optic
fiber switches are in production to handle to backbone and local nodes.
The cost of communications content is dropping faster
than hardware - more that twice as much at half the cost every 18 months
by an order of magnitude ( 10 times more capacity for 1/10th as much cost
) ( Moore’s Law 10 X )
The design of the general communications and computing
device.
Design teams of teachers ( from around the world ) and
students from anywhere working on the interface of communications technology,
processing capacity, storage and data transfer compression, marketing,
finance, human machine interface ( ergonomics http://www.wiredbrain.net/ergonomics.htm
) because the specialist now has to consider bandwidth, chip capacities,
applications, service systems, distribution systems, content and market
demand factors all in one organized package.
Management, information technology, marketing, human
resources and production need to work together. Traditional products such
as automobiles and space rockets and atomic ships has advanced some in
design integration but computers still have a way to go - the
NEXT
must leap frog current compartment thinking into
new dimensions of systems analysis.
How is systems analysis different
from what has been used in the last 40 years.
It is more colorful and has more dimensions.
It becomes much more complex where there are many clients,
with many applications, using different languages and protocols. A great
server should ask and how do we establish an interface, what language do
you use, what program do you want, what operating system does it use, and
can I remember all this the next time we make contact ?
Amazon.com has shown the way within one set of protocols
of how to be client centric. Every store both e and non-e, should be able
to track several open ended data bases - inventory, catalog, store, client,
sales person, so as to show what exists and who is buying it. Wal-mart
and Builders Square, Office supply and Sears should have a the catalog
and inventory on line at the cash registrar and on-line for the buyers
with items, pictures, prices as well as complete lists of any clients or
sales person’s recorded sales. It world make it a lot easier for contractors
or anyone buying many different items.
A friendly server would connect such data bases to
user applications such as financial records and market research. Can any
client using different tools access open records for different purposes,
in different languages ? Can suppliers or comparative shoppers or programs
that search for best buys ? How would the Nexum, a simple communications
device, use server software to find the best buy ? Who do you compare features
? Models, grades, standards, ? All kinds of applications not invented need
to glide easily into existing systems.
The invention of credit, degrees, payment systems is easy
Color is better than black and white. Three dimensions
is better than two. Round in better than flat. Current instruction is gray
and flat - it needs to be colorful and round. Students in rows reviewing
text books under the control of an instructor is clearly colorless and
flat. Every once in awhile there is a little burst of color or a dark pit
but the surface is mostly two dimensional and the colors are black and
white.

Keywords
weirdbrain
' (wîrd) adj., weird·er, weird·est. Of, relating to,
or suggestive of the preternatural or supernatural. Of a strikingly odd
or unusual character; strange. Archaic. Of or relating to fate or the Fates.
n.
Fate; destiny.
One's assigned lot or fortune, especially when evil. Often Weird. Greek
Mythology. Roman Mythology. One of the Fates. weird'ly adv. weird'ness
n. SYNONYMS: weird, eerie, uncanny, unearthly.
These adjectives refer to
what is of a mysteriously strange, usually frightening nature. Weird may
suggest the operation of supernatural influences, but it may also be applied
to what is merely odd or unusual: “
The person of the house gave a weird
little laugh” (Charles Dickens). “
There is a weird power in a spoken word”
(Joseph Conrad). Something eerie inspires inexplicable fear or uneasiness
that seems to result from a sinister influence: “At nightfall on the marshes,
the thing was eerie and fantastic to behold” (Robert Louis Stevenson).
Uncanny refers to what is unnatural and peculiarly unsettling: “
The queer
stumps . . . had uncanny shapes, as of monstrous creatures, whose eyes
seemed to peer out at you” (John Galsworthy). Something unearthly seems
so strange and unnatural as to come from or belong to another world: “He
could hear the unearthly scream of some curlew piercing the din” (Henry
Kingsley).

Since
the late 1880s, when wireless communications were first demonstrated, all
practical uses of radio have relied on the transmission of continuous sine
waves.
The modulation of those sine waves allows the transmission and reception
of information in either amplitude (AM radio) or frequency (FM radio).
From 1890 to the present, industry has searched relentlessly for ways to
send more information more reliably. Radio researchers have evolved techniques
such as CDMA, TDMA, etc.
Introduction to CDMA
http://www.time-domain.com/technology.htmlNow,
the entire wireless landscape has changed. Larry Fullerton discovered that
single RF monocycles could be transmitted through an antenna, and by precisely
positioning these monocycles in time and then using a matched receiver
to recover the transmissions, a whole new wireless medium was created,
'Digital Pulse Wireless' - a medium that does not rely on sine waves, does
not require an assigned frequency, does not need a power amplifier, and
is so random and low powered that it is indistinguishable from noise.
The
medium does require precise pulse placement in time (pulses are positioned
with an accuracy of trillionths of a second), and it also requires a coherent
correlating receiver - a Fullerton correlator. Larry Fullerton developed
and patented the technology over the last decade.
http://lasers.llnl.gov/lasers/idp/mir/files/MIR_info.html
The technology based on pulse-echo radar, discovered around the turn of
the century. Such radar leverages the speed of light as an integral component
of its operation, measuring the echo that results when a pulse strikes
an object to determine that object's distance from the pulse source.
Conventional
radar systems transmit several thousand such pulses per second. MIR, by
contrast, sends out over 1 million.
"In
the past, people used radio waves, but nobody cared how fast they were
going," McEwan said. "Now the consumer can use devices that actually clock
the speed of light in the form of microwave propagation, allowing them
to do things that they could never do before."
http://www.eet.com/news/97/937news/sensorapps.html
As
I understand IT , a new type of technology using Time Synchronization Systems
Through DCF77 or GPS signal and using a 10,000 MHTZ chip can transmit MEGA-BITS
the last mile. In synergy with solid state atomic level MEMORY TECHNOLOGY
data moves from FROM MEGA-BIT TO GIGA-BIT per second. High Speed processors
adapted from TERCOM - terrain contour matching 10,000 MHz chip used
in the cruise missile terrain following "smart bombs" or using guided radio
waves or laser beam targeting based on rapid image recognition.

NEW
DEVELOPMENTS IN STORAGEAccording to CMR (
http://www.cmruk.com/cmrinventions.html ), Professor Ted Williams and
his team are able to store 86 gigabytes per square centimeter, and to read
and write this data at 100 megabits/second. While few details are available
while their patents are pending, CMR does indicate that the process, funded
in part by the UK Department of Trade and Industry, exploits a new family
of metal alloys to create, "...a magneto-optical system not dissimilar

a different operating approach."
The
news tracker connection then runs everything
.
The Star Office 5.1
is a good example. It runs on open platforms and can be updated, reconfigured
to include sound and video telephones, and doesn't need to be completely
installed on every terminal but can run off the system network.
In
doing web pages, Netscape Composer, MS FrontPage, and Star Office use different
forms of code, HTTP ( hypertext ) different Java scripts, and can mess
each other and the author up. Now since they ( Netscape ( AOL ) and
Sun - part of the NOISE group, Netscape, Oracle, IBM, Sun and everyone
else - ) are enemies they may intend to screw each other with the author
in the middle.
How
about http://www.wiredbrain.net/battle.wav
and
too many other changes that work here but not there - audio plug-ins, ActiveX,
virtual machines, XML, etc. Etc..
This
is why the complex stuff has to be up-stream on the server if the communications
systems can communicate with each other.
The system knows where you
are (GPS), who you are ( IP) and what you are ( kind of device you are
using ) and what you want - voice, e-mail, conference, word processor,
accounts, pay a bill, collect a bill etc.
The
standards have to be set by SOMEONE - it can’t be done by a voluntary committee
as in the good old non commercial days when the DOD and NSF controlled
the net. It can’t be done by government ( too slow ) IT has to be global
- the EU and Asia are involved - sometimes well ahead.
The WWW system standard
was set at CERN - and the UN or a global trade or international postal
telecommunications agreement could set up a fast working body the approve
PROTOCALS. Now MS does the global job but is clearly not neutral or trustworthy,
since it is worth a good share of the almost trillion dollars in systems
sales.

XML: the most powerful productivity tool ever imaged:
I can write this text, I could insert picture or sound. I can create links ( hyper- links ) or imbedded functions ( scripts in several languages ) - e-mail it or post it to a web site that has scripts to run different functions. It is getting easier but still has lots of bugs.
Microsoft is again in a catch up position. Power corrupts and the lack of real time painful competition is what corrupted power means.
The NOISE group of Netscape, Oracle, IBM, Sun MicroSystems Corel and Everyone else had the model right years ago. With bandwidth ( such as private networks - intranets, extra-nets, and other high speed networks ) the network becomes the system. Each member of the system - clients and servers are integrated through common languages or objects.
When you open a web page, hypertext and imbedded objects can connect functions - edit, ( word processing ) analyze ( search, data bases ) and interoperate with each other using voice, images, data and text.
The idea is that a person interested in the service manual for a piece of equipment or operational system - a service engineer or client at a PC, or in the field using a lap top, wireless phone or other device not only could look up information but order parts, update systems, see graphic display, talk to experts, hold a meeting between the consultant and the providers and the home system would gather information about what is going on and what works and what doesn’t.
Providers of services - software, engineering, analysis, B2B, OEM, etc.. could all deal with each other using different languages, platforms and systems. This is the most powerful productivity tool ever imaged. System can adjust and improve in real time. A contractor in the field can order supplies from the best low cost provider, check delivery, pay accounts, check balances, talk to sub-contractors, revise plans and schedules, have the design changed and fixed, and 1000 and more details. No one can build a house without a cell phone - can any service be provided without real time communications ?
Who can do this unless they spend lots of money for services and software ?
The service providers can MS.net, oracle.net, IBM.net Sun.net, AOL.net, apple.net, excite.net, go.net, yahoo.net, - plug and play just like the cell phone. For $ 50 a month your ISP becomes an interactive system to other services.
The contractor enters his phone book, calendar, and buys services from engineers, accountants, and get free services from suppliers, banks, sub contractors, etc. Those connected have a great advantage over those out of the loop.

More power in a Palm Pilot than on the Apollo 10:
The accelerating rate of change forecast more change in the next century than in the last 10,000 years.
The increases in the rate of change between paradigms began at about 5000 years as ideas spread slowly - domestic animals, agriculture, metallurgy, then cities, bureaucracy and empires - then 500 years - printing, navigation, mathematics, deep mining up to the 18th century.
Then 100 years with potatoes, steam and steel, electric and chemical, communications and computers. Now in 25 years ideas are activated that used to take a century, then 12.5 years will have a century of 20th century progress, then 6.25 years what used to take a century and so forth.
The acceleration of the rate of change has been going on for a long time - it just gets faster and faster.
Therefore if Nano computer would have taken 50 years in the past it can be done in 12.5 years.
The speed of application of stem cells to build body parts, cloned cells used as normal therapies, use of immunization in treatments of ongoing virus infections and cancers, genetic engineered plants and animals as a normal accepted process, all being implemented at great speed. Even in a slow bulky industries such as cars - the fuel cell will move along more quickly than such technologies would have in the past. This really effects markets, marketing, and business planning in very fundamental ways.

Windows in the cloudy sky:
What Microsoft wants to do is control the servers with a MS provided next, next generation NT platform operating system called XML but not open and universal.
The .net system works with devices that have .net codes built it. Microsoft products will run on .net as a server - client interface - XML files, XML data base, XML storage, XML index, id, calendar, updates, notifications, out in the cloud on MS XML server software doing object imbedded codes.
The applications become notations or services on the page.
The universal canvas API. Hardware drives, across all the devices and the .net controller in the a cloud. Development applications are built on the XML kits connected to the browser. This was Netscape’s vision from the beginning.. This is why MS had to kill Netscape and the NOISE group and what the browser wars was really about.
The platform is in the sky - Microsoft idea is the new version of what Netscape and SUN - the NOISE group ( Netscape, Oracle, IBM, Sun, and Everyone else ) started talking about five years ago.
The server ( web site ) company internets, the ISP, wireless devices, i-appliances, game panels, can all use audio, video, photograph, office applications - word process, presentation, spread sheets, data bases, in a interactive way using a server AGENT or personalized options given the application, the device used, and the pattern of application - on a rental or fee-for-service basics. In other words all the complex stuff is up stream - rich standards based on XML works between platforms and programs but at the server not on the PC - This is the critical and profound change.
The server in the cloud does the transfer and integration - is the platform in the sky that can work with all kinds of devices. It can take a record from one place in one format and uses it in another program in a different format guided by the smart agent. Information can be used almost anywhere from almost anywhere.
The devices can use keyboards, mouse, voice, hand writing, file transfer, clip board, as inputs as well as agent intelligence on the server and user interface.

U.S. scientists closer to making new type
of supercomputer
By Reuters
Special to CNET News.com
March 15, 2000, 1:55 p.m. PT
LONDON--U.S. scientists moved a step closer to developing a
super-computer after looking at a branch of physics that researches the
physics of particles invisible to the human eye.
"In the language of quantum information science, we have realized a
four-quantum-bit logic gate. This system is relevant for the future development of
quantum information technology," the scientists said in the journal Nature.
Conventional computers are based on binary
"switches," or bits, which can either be switched on
or off. Computers carry out calculations utilizing these
switches.
Quantum theory holds that entities such as atoms do
not decide whether they exist in an on or off state
until they are measured or interact with something.
When they are not interacting, the atoms exist in both
states at once--a quantum superposition--said
Christopher Monroe, a researcher at the National
Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
Computers based on quantum physics would
therefore be able to have switches or "qbits" that exist
in both on and off states simultaneously.
A string of these quantum bits would consequently offer every possible on-off
combination and could carry out every calculation a computer needed
simultaneously, hugely increasing the computer's power and memory.

Bell Labs is known for revolutions.
In 1947 it was the transistor. Today it is photonics. Called the second silicon revolution, optical fiber systems are in an explosive state of development, reminiscent of the earlier days of the electronics industry.
Over the past two decades, since fiber-optic communications first began to appear, the carrying capacity of fiber has increased at a faster rate than Moore's law. Now the wavelength-division multiplexing revolution has accelerated that capacity even more, while introducing the flexibility
of wavelength-based routing. Forged from an interdisciplinary mix of semiconductor diode lasers, micromachine technology and fundamental advances in optical glass technology, terahertz networking has arrived well ahead of schedule.
It's a major revolution riding on a broad-based industry serving the fundamental human need to communicate.
"A length of fiber long enough to circle the globe three times is produced every day, and if you extrapolate current trends to 2010, every one of the 6 billion people on earth will have a bandwidth capability equivalent to high-definition television," said Alistair Glass, director of photonics research and development at Lucent Technologies Bell Laboratories. Arriving at Bell Labs in 1967, Glass' career spans the development and implementation of fiber-optic communications systems.
Major breakthrough
"When I arrived, the major breakthrough was the first continuously operating laser, and it didn't run for very long-only a few minutes," Glass recalled.
"This was the time of the early hero experiments and the demands kept increasing and increasing on these devices.
There was always that pressure, but the interest in the marketplace represented a dramatic change."
There was always a strong demand to increase the performance of any device.
At first the research arm of AT&T, Bell Labs enjoyed a special status after its founding in the 1920s. Because of the monopoly granted AT&T by the government, in the interests of standardizing the telephone system, the lab could both be part of a commercial operation and play the open role of a national laboratory.
"At that time, there was not much connectivity with business- it was very much intellectually driven. We wanted to be leaders in all the fields relevant to communications," Glass said. But in the early 1980s two developments dramatically accelerated photonics research: commercial long-haul fiber-optic systems began to be installed commercially, and AT&T's monopoly was dissolved by the government, with parts of Bell Labs spun off into other companies as part of a complex divestiture of the telecommunications giant. "We were suddenly handed the mandate to develop commercial products out of our research efforts," he said.
The lab responded with a broad attack on optical communications systems. Innovations in the basic fiber, laser diodes to power them, and integrated optoelectronic components to interface with electronic data systems followed. "Since then, particularly with the founding of Lucent Technologies, optics has been accelerating at an incredible rate," Glass said.
For transporting data over long distances, fiber systems proved to be irresistible. Large bundles of copper wire could be replaced by slender silicon fibers in a process of "demassification" usually associated with the electronics industry. While the debate continues over whether optical interconnect is a viable alternative to electrical wiring inside of computers, the issue has been definitively resolved for long-distance communications. But optical interconnect inside the box may eventually succumb to a long-term trend. Recent developments in metropolitan-area networks suggest that fiber optics is riding a scaling law similar to the shrinking VLSI circuit, and the scaling rate appears to be steeper.
The rapid deployment of fiber optics received an even bigger jolt with a repeat of the '80s scenario in the 1990s. Bell Labs was again transferred in 1996 to another entity-Lucent Technologies-and made the centerpiece of a startup with considerable economic resources. Also brewing in photonics labs was a revolutionary technology called dense wavelength-division multiplexing (DWDM), which has allowed the carrying capacity of optical fiber to ramp up at an astonishing rate. "In the mid-90s it became a fever. We went from eight to 16 to 32 wavelengths on a single fiber and our latest products use 400. Now we have just demonstrated 1,000 wavelengths," Glass noted.
http://www.wiredbrain.net/dwdm.htm
DWDM uses individual segments of the optical spectrum to multiplex signals on a fiber.
The idea is recent, considered at first to be a laboratory curiosity since practical systems were already multiplexing channels with a time-division technique. Such synchronous optical networks (Sonet) had been able to extend the capacity of optical fiber and were a welcome development.
The wavelength-division multiplexing route has turned out to have far more potential: Bell Labs researchers recently demonstrated a DWDM transmission system capable of sending a terabit of data per second down a fiber. "That represents the entire world's Internet on a single glass fiber," Glass said.
The DWDM revolution has been extremely swift. When Lucent Technologies was established, DWDM was still at the laboratory demonstration stage. While the idea is simple, turning it into practical optical communications systems required a multifaceted development. Multiple-wavelength laser-diode systems and new types of fiber able to carry the multiple wavelength signals without crosstalk had to be developed. And some means of collectively amplifying multiwavelength signals had to be invented. While those problems were effectively solved in a short time, it wasn't easy. Indeed, one outstanding problem has never been solved: how to regenerate multiple wavelength signals.
Large areas
One consequence of that missing solution is the fact that DWDM can only be implemented on campus-wide or metropolitan areas. By doping fiber with the rare-earth element erbium, it is possible to build a simple light amplifier that is essentially a laser. When a multiple wavelength signal is passed through an erbium fiber loop and optically pumped, it emerges unchanged except that it is at a higher energy level. One nice aspect of this operation is that the actual content of the wavelength channels is irrelevant to the amplification process. Unfortunately, to recondition optical signals, it becomes necessary to decode their content and relaunch them. Thus signal regeneration, which is essential in long-haul networks, is still unavailable to DWDM.
Balancing this deficiency in very long transmissions is a new wave of all-optical switching elements that are able to add or remove a wavelength channel from a fiber.
These add-drop multiplexers offer a high-speed switching function that could not be duplicated with electronics, and have made metropolitan-area networks into a unique flexible, high-throughput communications medium.
This essentially new form of photonics technology is spawning an industry in optical switching components. "Now people can invent a novel device that relates to communications and it will find its way into products extremely rapidly-less than a year," said Glass. "We are now in a situation of 'invent on demand' where as soon as a problem is perceived, someone immediately comes up with a solution."
This explosive growth poses a formidable challenge to electronics technology. "If you compare the speed of silicon chips versus the capacity of optical fiber communications, fiber optics is going significantly faster than electronics, and where the fiber ends-that becomes a significant bottleneck." Glass is convinced that fiber to the home office and then fiber to the home are just around the corner. "We have a demonstration project going with Bell South where we have wired up a suburban neighborhood with little fiber-optic network units on the side of each house," he said.
Dealing with the high volumes of data that are coming off optical fibers will present a big challenge to electronics. Fortunately, wavelength-division multiplexing eases that task since each wavelength can be processed simultaneously by different circuits. Ultimately, electronics and optics technologies offer complementary abilities: "Optics is ideal for transporting data from point A to point B, but it is weak in the area of logic and switching," Glass pointed out. "That is where we will need electronics."

The world economic summit is less interesting because the big and powerful
are less interesting.
The rate of technological has multiplied on itself because computers can work faster and communications are better therefore computers and communications becomes faster and faster. My guess is that optic fiber to the door will make on-air or cable broadcasting uneconomic - video on demand will replace it - the program producers will distribute directly to the consumer - like in MP3 - the video store goes on line -
The move producer - such as Blair Witch could be sold directly - same with any show or news or whatever - so there goes networks - maybe even magazine writers with direct sales -
Wireless systems can get up to 400 kps to a million somehow - http://www.wiredbrain.net/symbian.htm for a lot of applications that is fine - and OS chip technology will make greater use of less and less with less energy and heat - more light and lighter -

code division multiple access (CDMA) technology.
HP is investing $2 million in New Media Venture Partners (NMVP) and will
provide up to $15 million in debt financing to help the company fund and
incubate e-commerce start-ups. In return, subsidiaries of NMVP will use HP
products and services.
If I were a high technology company - in information systems, computers,
communications or any part of the 25 % of the economy - and almost all the growth sector - now including networks - broadcasting - publishing - entertainment - music - video - electronics - service - I would have a venture capital connection so I could send people out and find out what is going on.
The battle for the airwaves is not just about broadband but the content - software and services. If you put a few hundred thousand in interesting technologies you gain access to information.
There is almost a certainty that something will come from left field and change all the rules again.
Cable is too slow and greedy.
The telephone companies too slow and bureaucratic. Both have shown a preference for short term gains rather than long term survival. Microsoft is showing the same brain arthritis - inflexible - such as IBM was - GM and other big and rich - missed every important technology - but could buy it after it had been proven. That may or may not be possible. .

The most common wireless transmission standard, GSM, which stands for
Global Systems for Mobile communications, is particularly prevalent in
Europe and Asia. According to market research firm Dataquest, nearly 157
million GSM-based mobile phones will be shipped worldwide this year,
compared with shipments of about 43 million CDMA cell phones.
But many industry observers say CDMA, strongest in North America, is more
efficient and can handle Internet-based transmissions better.
There is also time division and dense systems - I do believe the key is China - the PLA and post telegraph - along with the EU will set the standards.

So Where is the Wireless Web?
by Dee McVicker
February 11, 2000
Network operations are currently divided into three technology families, code division multiple access (CDMA), time division multiple access (TDMA), and global system for mobile communication (GSM).
http://www.wiredbrain.net/symbian.htm
If we gave you 800-kilobit packet-data service as a user, we could fit 100 voice calls into that same bandwidth,"
Japan's NTT DoCoMo doesn't have the same concern, one reason why it's not hesitating to jump into 3G. Japanese and European operators running out of bandwidth can license new spectrum for 3G; U.S. operators cannot.
Eventually, the goal is "third generation," or 3G, devices (digital cell phones were the second generation) that will deliver data rates of up to 2 Mbps. Just for comparison, current cellular-network transfer rates plod along at 9.6 Kbps or 14.4 Kbps, at best, which is OK for e-mail and some of the new Internet services being lauded by cell-phone carriers. Phone.com's (PHCM) Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) microbrowser is helping squeeze the Web into these pipes, but that's a stopgap measure.
Wireless data is hot. You can't open a magazine without reading about microbrowsers on cell phones or turn on a television without seeing an advertisement for the Internet-in-your-pocket.
Japan is blasting away, with all jets driving, toward the new wireless Internet. As far back as October 19, 1998, NTT Mobile Communications Network Inc. (NTT DoCoMo, Tokyo), Japan's leading mobile operator, piloted a cellular network that joined together the cell phone and motion video.
Expected to launch commercially in March 2001, the network and others like it will give birth to a new wireless-communications era. For NTT DoCoMo's 3 million "i-mode" cell-phone subscribers (roughly 10 percent of the company's total customer base), for example, it will mean wireless high-speed Internet news, banking, video streaming, travel reservations, Web radio, and a slew of other services.

The following image need to be firmly in mind to understand the AOL/ Time
Warner deal - and the frenzy going on in telecommunications and computer
industries.
The time frame is about 10 years - the impact comes first in
Northern Europe - Singapore - parts of the states - parts of Hong Kong and
China - Japan - Taiwan - South East Asia - Australia ( already with system
under construction )
http://www.wiredbrain.net/nano.htm
There is optic to the door provided by the utility company. It is a common carrier
providing:
TV programs on demand on a big flat screen digital high definition system -
programs are recorded and played as you desire, when you desire on any of the
screens around the wired house you desire.
There is no need for program schedules
- movies and other video content are downloaded on demand from world wide
services. Some charge fees some are free with or without ads. You can watch the
BBC news or CNN or C-span type programs any time.
There is no need for movie
or music channels since you can order anything you want anytime.
The same with music, either rented for a limited number of replays, or purchased and
transferred to CD or DVD -
The same with interactive media - games and
educational services for the wired " smart" house - When you leave the security
system goes on - with complete radar monitoring of any motion with recording of
motion, the heat or AC is turned down, when you click from your cell phone that
you are returning home - the lights and heat or AC is reset, the music turned on and
the doors unsecured.
The cell phone - palm pilot - personal digital assistant works at 400 kbps to 4 Mbs
with GPS, e-mail and other web content, fold up or screen keyboards, long life
batteries, high gain reception of dense multiplex time division wideband GS3 codes.
Europe, with its common GSM standard, will likely usher in "3G" technologies (with their 2 megabit/second
data to pockets) years before it happens in the U.S.' fragmented cellular environment. And fast wireless data
will surely usher in many new Opportunities. -
http://www.pathfinder.com/fortune/technology/2000/01/24/ega.html).
The home terminal - NEXUM - provides wireless ( bluetooth ) connection to the
mobile elements, TV, music, games, information systems with voice commands. You
say " Write a note" and dictate as it appears on the big screen. You correct with the
portable keyboard that is used for interactive TV.
The master computer works
within a network "master server in the sky" to provide services you need or enjoy.
Shopping, banking, tele-communities, video conferences, design and research,
games and social activities, travel and adventure, and tuned to your interests and
desires.
The master server bills for usage in micro pennies for "extras" but charges a
flat fee for "basic services". Several master server companies compete for services
on the common carrier -
The services are not tied to the wire - optic cable - so there are two bills - one for
connection services - the wireless and wired ( optic ) and another from the service
company that passes along charges for rentals, fee for service charges, software
licenses, communications on and off net, as we do today with local and long distance
phone services and premium cable services.
Where is the money made ? Optic fiber hardware - mobile hardware, utility
company right-of-way and network services, the "general utility service company"
maybe AOL, Microsoft, NOISE group ( Netscape, Oracle, IBM, Sun
Microsystems and everyone else ) Amazon, or others which provides the interface
between the user and service providers - banks, insurance, finance and markets,
shopping, software and music and games and movies and communications, and
entertainment, security, smart home management, and on and on...
The super on-line
service using optic fiber to the door.

All Boiled down on CONVERGENCE AOL: the super market of the world
What does AOL Time Warner ( and Wal-Mart, & some Computer terminal
company and cable modem or broadband connection ) mean for the future of
global society ? What is the image they pursue ? http://www.wiredbrain.net/symbian.htm
CONVERGENCE: Interactive television, combining audio telephone, video
conference and cable or satellite TV, video on demand, all designed to
advertise and sell on the spot all kinds of good and services.
What is called "entertainment" on television is different from plays,
or movies or theme parks or games or sports because the role of "content"
is only to attract an audience so they can be sold something.
The job of
television is sales - not news or information or entertainment which are
only provided so people watch and can be sold something.
The role of AOL
/ Time Warner will be not only to sell others goods but direct sales.
Their
dream is the click and buy advantages of two way communications.
In the process cable or other broadband can replace a good share of
long distance voice, video rentals, VPN virtual private networks, if and
only if, the broadband connections really works then personal computers
become network devices or http://www.wiredbrain.net/nano.htm
a multipurpose communications and entertainment console.
AOL Time Warner believe that whatever the method for the broadband connections
they will control the content.
The contact rates - for cable, telephone,
Internet and video on demand provide cash flows that support the capital
for improved networks and on-line sales provide the profits.
It's not only that you can buy your tooth paste from the commercial
( click here to add it to your Wal-mart order ) but you might get free
samples for filling out forms. You can add with a click to your grocery
list. People really will buy travel deals, change banks or brokers, buy
records after getting MP3 samples, select household gadgets, buy gifts,
use auctions, even pick appliances and cars.
They will seek better mortgage
and insurance rates, look for a new house, and a thousand other products
and services.
http://www.wiredbrain.net/disintermedation.htm
disintermediation means becoming the middle person between the buyer
and seller. On-line systems such as Amazon.com means direct sales take
on a whole new meaning. I would look for a Amazon Wal-mart connection if
not merger.

Broadband Race Is on the Rise in Hong Kong
Last week, the Hong Kong government took another step to open further the telecom market to competition by issuing a total of 17 fixed network licenses (5 licenses for wireless local fixed telecommunications network services (FTNS), and another 12 licenses for external FTNS using satellites).
The licenses will last for 15 years, with an option to extend for another 15 years. In addition, the government has agreed to issue an FTNS license to Hong Kong Cable TV to provide telecom services over its hybrid fiber-coaxial cable networks.

The battle of the air waves is just not between cable modems ( which don't work
very well ) and DSL which has many problems and is priced too high. Optic fiber to
the door and new wideband line of sight or some technology using power lines may
jump ahead. It's a tough call to invest billions per day.
The dense urban markets, the rural markets, the issues in China and other world markets, all may not have the
same solution. Satellite systems have a role, but it seems the analysis is too tightly drawn in the box - there are sure to be out of the box answers.
``Wireless Internet devices will not only capture some existing PC applications but
introduce brand new applications that the desk-top PC has no way to handle today,''
Engibous told a Tokyo seminar on the company's strategy.
``I think the availability of a wireless device that is online all the time with broadband data capability...offers the possibility of applications that Silicon Valley'' is just beginning to dream about, he added.
With next-generation mobile phone services, users will be able to surf the Web,
check and respond to e-mail, conduct videoconferences and use new mobile
services such as e-commerce, he said.
Next-generation mobile phone services will be offered in Japan beginning in the
spring of 2001, and later in other parts of the world.

Broadband in the Local Loop 98:
Cable Modem Madness vs. xDSL Dementia
http://www.fwdconcepts.com/brdbnd98.htm
New Study Concludes G.lite not enough to overcome advantages
and head start of cable modems
http://www.fwdconcepts.com/press13.htm
According to the study, cable modems will win the lion's share of the residential
broadband market, outnumbering DSL modems 5:1 in North American and 2.6:1
worldwide by the year 2003.
The five-year growth rate for cable modems is
forecast to be 93% in North America and 114% in other regions.
The Study concludes that the rollout plans announced by the telcos are unrealistically
optimistic, that the services are too high-priced for the mainstream residential
market, and face many technical and regulatory hurdles--oft overlooked in the
excitement of bringing in a new age of high speed IP-based telecommunications.
Forward Concepts also believes that splitterless DSL still has many technical
unknowns, and that its suitability as a "universal" service is still open to question.
DSL services also jeopardize existing, highly profitable, data communications
services, further reducing motivation for rollout by the telcos.
The cable companies,
in contrast, see IP-video, IP telephony, Internet access, and remote LAN access as
pure incremental upside revenue opportunities, unencumbered by existing services.

AOL can do what Sears did.
The Sears brands were produced by OEM ( original
equipment manufactures ) with Sears keeping a very tight control of quality
and margins. Many of their providers became dependents. B2B means the intermediary
can arrange shipments from the provider to the buyer and become the super
market of the world.
Also some new technology may come along to change all the rules
http://www.zdnet.com/intweek/stories/news/0,4164,2270684.html
"Nortel has used its technology, called Digital PowerLine (DPL), successfully in European and Asian markets. Currently, the company has agreements with 10 non-U.S. utilities that serve 35 million homes, says Dan Middleton, director of carrier packet solutions at Nortel's power line networks division.
If physicist Luke Stewart can do what he says he can send voice, video, and data thousands of miles over electric lines
at the speed of light he will produce perhaps the most significant development in communications since Alexander
Graham Bell.
That could take the company he cofounded in North Dallas, Media Fusion L.L.C., to heights greater than Microsoft in both
earnings and market value.
I do think that nano quantum computers - optic and laser [acronym for
light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation], device for the
creation and amplification of a narrow, intense beam of coherent LIGHT.

time - having more importance than the silly political debates, because
economics come from the structure of industry and enterprise - clearly
the railroads, automobiles, radio, TV, computers and the internet are
the drivers of our history - culture - social being - and therefore our
economy and political system.
The new world order is not an idea or
ideology but of commerce based on transportation and communications.

A short introduction to quantum computation
Max PLANCK and Heisenberg, and Erwin SCHRÖDINGER's wave mechanics,
and Born, are the people of the 20th century who will most influence the
21 st. We will see the application of quantum computer fairly soon. It
could ( so will ) have some level of self awareness we call consciousness
http://www.qubit.org/intros/comp/comp.html
Being in two places at the same time - or going from here to there without
passing through the space between.
The nature of matter at this level is
little energy spots rather than matter as we experience it, energy that
change quantum states - transform from one state to another instantly.
"
The history of computer technology has involved a sequence of changes
from one type of physical realization to another --- from gears to relays
to valves to transistors to integrated circuits and so on ...
On the atomic scale matter obeys the rules of quantum mechanics,
which are quite different from the classical rules that determine the properties
of conventional logic gates. So if computers are to become smaller in the
future, new, quantum technology must replace or supplement what we have
now.
The point is, however, that quantum technology can offer much more
than cramming more and more bits to silicon and multiplying the clock-speed
of microprocessors. It can support entirely new kind of computation with
qualitatively new algorithms based on quantum principles!
Three basic categories of elementary particles were ultimately distinguished:
leptons, quarks, and bosons. Leptons and quarks are FERMIONS, the basic
constituents of nuclear and atomic structure, or MATTER; BOSONS are the
particles that transmit the fundamental FORCES of nature between fermions.
The smallest class of elementary particles is that of the massless bosons,
which comprises the PHOTON, gluon, W AND Z PARTICLES, and the hypothetical
graviton.
The lepton class contains twelve particles: the electron, muon,
tauon, and their antiparticles, and the neutrino or antineutrino associated
with each.
The QUARKS, the third class, also number twelve: the whimsically
named up, down, charm, strange, top (or truth), and bottom (or beauty)
quarks and their antiparticles. Quarks are always found in pairs or triplets
with other quarks or antiquarks to form particles called hadrons.
In the begining there was the big bang.
Then all was
dark for awhile.
The force of gravaty produced matter and stars and light.
Most of the stuff remained dark with antimatter and antigravity.
The mind
of the universe moves from simple to complex, in a pattern of relationships
too complex to happen purely by chance.
The system desired to become aware
of itself or there would be no point in the exercise.
Elementary particles interact with one another through the four fundamental
forces: GRAVITATION, electromagnetism, WEAK INTERACTION, and STRONG INTERACTION.
Gravitation is experienced by all particles of known matter and anti-gravidy
created the asymmetrical forces that created the universe, electromagnetism
is experienced only by charged particles, such as the electron, proton,
and muon. Hadrons and leptons, including the electron, muon, and the neutrinos,
participate in the weak interaction associated with particle decay.
The
strong interaction is responsible for the structure of the atomic nucleus,
and only hadrons participate in it.

Borders, periphery, frontiers:
Life and cognizance exists on the edge of quantum
and classical physics.
The very small ( nano ) works by most extraordinary
rules - objects have properties that allow them to move from here to there
without going through the intermediate space. Time is not linear and space
bends. Objects themselves appear, take on properties, and then change their
character and reappears in a different form.
At the atomic and molecular level the connections can
be open and creative rather than mechanical and determined. Uncertainty
is a fundamental prerequisite of creativity and life itself.
A really clever computer working with uncertainly could
work at this level and have some sort of consciousness. This would be an
interesting invention of this century.

People who purchase a PC with the belief that
computer literacy is not necessary are kidding themselves. Still, millions
of people, including my grandparents, are buying PCs with the mistaken
notion that they're no more difficult to operate than VCRs. Many PC owners
don't know how to do the basic tasks, such as installing software and hardware
and defragmenting a disk drive. And God help them if they ever have to
reinstall the operating system. Making the PC easier to maintain would
require the companies that produce the operating systems, software and
hardware to work together in harmony. This will never happen.
It's a problem crying out for a solution. And it's
not hard to imagine one: What if I told you that I could provide you with
a solid-state device a quarter of the size of a PC that had no moving parts
to break? You could run 50 software titles such as Word, WordPerfect, Lotus
SmartSuite, Quattro Pro and Quicken, as well as games. You would never
have to upgrade those applications because they would be upgraded for you.
With this device, you could watch more than 175 cable channels and select
from thousands of movie titles that you could watch either on the machine
or on the TV in your living room.
This device would have a hard drive so large that you
could never fill it up. And you never would have to back up files again
because they would be backed up for you every night. If lightning hit this
device while you were using it out by the pool, you might lose some hair
and skin, but you wouldn't lose data—and I could overnight you another
machine.
There would be no problems with an operating system, hardware
drivers or other software. You would simply plug it into your cable box,
and you're ready to go.
Services for the masses
In the near future, services such as these will
replace the PC for millions of people who were never cut out to be PC administrators.
Thin-client operating systems, such as Citrix MetaFrame running on MS Terminal
Server, combined with ISDN, ADSL or cable modem Internet access, will inevitably
be the basis of a virtual PC service that will revolutionize the industry.
Instead of buying a PC, you would pay the company a
monthly fee, and the company would send you a Winterm device that plugs
into your new high-bandwidth Internet connection, which links to its service.
After powering it on, you would simply hit "connect" and your personalized
GUI desktop would pop up on the screen. You could instantly run hundreds
of applications without installing anything. Any time you saved files,
they'd actually be saved to a server's hard drives, which would be backed
up every night. Combine these services with an e-mail account, and watch
PC sales plummet. After all, who would want to buy a PC with software that
had to be upgraded every year, if you could hire a service to take care
of the mess? Many corporations, tired of the cost and IS staff required
to manage hundreds of PCs, would jump on it.
The technology to build a virtual PC service is here
today. Other technologies, such as movies on demand, are probably a few
years out.
The advent of virtual computing will shift the entire PC infrastructure
with such momentum that the PC as we know it today will be used only by
a group of oddballs: "computer" people.

What is GS3 ( Global System 3 ) for MS that Bill is going to do 100 % of the time ? - first there was the

empire??
The keys are both the hand held portable GMS and the home appliance - the universal
communications device that runs as a terminal - software ( by MS ) and OS by MS - to provide operations on a
rental or fixed fee for service system - It owns the pipe - it owns the birds - it owns the OS - but provides
content and services for all ( Bill's idea of open systems ) This is where AOL should have been going rather than
content which is begging for distribution. Content must have eyeballs - but the owner of the pipe and OS is

The last was between Armstrong
and RCA - Sarnoff about Radio and FM see
http://www.wiredbrain.net/disintermediation.htm) A superheterodyne circuit developed by U.S. Army Signal Corps major Edwin Howard
Armstrong, 26, became the basic design for all amplitude modulation (AM) radios. It
greatly increases the selectivity and sensitivity of radio receivers over a wide band of frequencies (see 1906; FM, 1933). Radio Corp. of America (RCA) was founded by Owen D. Young (see 1919) who loans Ernst Alexanderson to RCA which will employ him as chief engineer for 5 years (see 1906). RCA acquired the Victor Co. and become a
radio-phonograph colossus but anti-trust court actions will separate RCA from GE (see
VICTROLA, 1906; NBC, 1926). David Sarnoff urges marketing of a simple "radio music
box."
The American Marconi Co. says his plan will make the radio "a ‘household
utility’ in the same sense as the piano or phonograph" (see 1912; 1920).
In order to sell the system - the NEXUM a universal communications device which works on line all the time -
dial tone connections - with video and hot internet you first go after the corporate market - CONCENTRIC
with optic fiber, T1 and DSL lines then the small business user and set up a big private network.
Then you roll
out the same high speed service for domestic users in some markets -
I am looking into it - thanks - the AOL Warner raises issuers of cable access.
Someone must know something so that cable can be used on a wide scale - AOL knows all too well that the
future of low speed mass market for their
service is very limited. I believe in wireless - optic broadband doing the last
mile via some kind of microwave radar -
The issue is China -
The PLA and post telegraph have hundred of millions of new users and can't string wires -
but can run a optic fiber backbone with radio towers CDM code or time division multiplex - either only needs a
little push to get there. What about Direct TV downlink and DSL up - these are the BIG issues. Who
controls the rules and protocols controls a lot.

The
new school
What could an relevant on-line school be like.
-
Color is better than black and white.
-
Three dimensions is better than two.
-
Round is better than flat.
-
Fast is more successful than slow.
Civilization progresses with greater literacy,
greater attention to the laws of man and nature, and greater freedom of
participation.
Current instruction is gray and flat - it needs to
be colorful and round. Instruction is slow, knowledge is cut into fragments
and reassembled, creative participation is discouraged at all levels.
The
iron law of bureaucracy operates freely in almost all schools.
Students in rows reviewing text books under the control
of an instructor is clearly colorless and flat. Every once in awhile there
is a little burst of color or a dark pit but the surface is mostly two
dimensional and the colors are black and white.
There are several clear themes as we move from two dimensions
to many:
1. ) Knowledge is not only transferred but invented
a lot of learning takes place in the process of invention
2.)
The organizing themes are tasks not subjects ,
Knowledge is organized around functions not disciplines
3.) there is creative interaction between teachers
and learners and less distinctions between actors and classes.
The word is convergence
- Technology, communications, human organization, marketing, finance, and
further explorations of the future rushing in upon us.
The NEXUM project:
http://www.wiredbrain.net/symbian.htm
A clear image:
Since the Fallow’s article almost 10 years ago http://www.wiredbrain.net/documents/logos/fallow01.txt
and fallow.txt I have a changing image of the communications in the age
of technology. I have believed the free market would produce was rational,
logical, technologically economic communications system which looked like
this:
A receiver dish on your desk or outside on the wall
of your house and office broadcasts and receives digital signals from a
transmitters in the neighborhood ( up to 30 miles away - line of sight
or maybe not ). This single connection would provide really high speed
broadband - gigs per second - cable, telephone, Internet ( converged with
TV and phone ).
The big business will be service providers doing all the
hard stuff ( software ) up line. You IP number would connect you to the
world and the world to you where ever on what ever. Your domain name would
replace phone numbers, and all the other ID problems with transactions
in electric money as the device knows who you are ( thumb print, retina
read ).
If you wanted to write a letter - using voice recognition
from your cell phone to your NEXUM ( PC network device ) and e-mail it
or print it ( using Bluetooth ) or any financial, business, personal transaction
it would fly through the air from where-ever to where-ever.
The 100’s of millions of new connections in China and
the rest of the world without wires would use the same broadband wireless
system.
The phone companies, cable companies, broadcast companies, cell
phones, and computer hardware and software would all be in the IT communications
business. It is happening - http://www.wiredbrain.net/NEXUM.htm and http://www.wiredbrain.net/symbian.htm
The billion people on the Internet we talked about
a couple of years ago ( http://www.wiredbrain.net/packets.htm are almost
here.
The Internet as the links to phones, it is here now.
The TV Internet
connection is here @home and @work. What has not as been created is bandwidth
and the NC ( NEXUM ) but they are just over the horizon, looking More and
more like the playstation II and in the $ 350 range or comes with the $
50 monthly user fees including long distance, cable channels picked off
Satellites, Internet - Video user interface etc.
Sure people will use DSL ( fairly high speed phone
on copper ) people will use two way cable, some people and business will
use direct satellite or be on optic fiber, ( people still ride horses,
use wagons, sail boats, and walk but cars and planes have most of the transport
business ) BUT VOFDM, MMDS will replace most of these wired links by wireless,
better, freer more competitive services. I can’t track down the low power
radar (MIR) time division wideband line of sight transmitter and receivers
but it is being used by the military and seems to have no limits. Optic
fiber switches are in production to handle to backbone and local nodes.
The cost of communications content is dropping faster
than hardware - more that twice as much at half the cost every 18 months
by an order of magnitude ( 10 times more capacity for 1/10th as much cost
) ( Moore’s Law 10 X )
The design of the general communications and computing
device.
Design teams of teachers ( from around the world ) and
students from anywhere working on the interface of communications technology,
processing capacity, storage and data transfer compression, marketing,
finance, human machine interface ( ergonomics http://www.wiredbrain.net/ergonomics.htm
) because the specialist now has to consider bandwidth, chip capacities,
applications, service systems, distribution systems, content and market
demand factors all in one organized package.
Management, information technology, marketing, human
resources and production need to work together. Traditional products such
as automobiles and space rockets and atomic ships has advanced some in
design integration but computers still have a way to go - the
NEXT
must leap frog current compartment thinking into
new dimensions of systems analysis.
How is systems analysis different
from what has been used in the last 40 years.
It is more colorful and has more dimensions.
It becomes much more complex where there are many clients,
with many applications, using different languages and protocols. A great
server should ask and how do we establish an interface, what language do
you use, what program do you want, what operating system does it use, and
can I remember all this the next time we make contact ?
Amazon.com has shown the way within one set of protocols
of how to be client centric. Every store both e and non-e, should be able
to track several open ended data bases - inventory, catalog, store, client,
sales person, so as to show what exists and who is buying it. Wal-mart
and Builders Square, Office supply and Sears should have a the catalog
and inventory on line at the cash registrar and on-line for the buyers
with items, pictures, prices as well as complete lists of any clients or
sales person’s recorded sales. It world make it a lot easier for contractors
or anyone buying many different items.
A friendly server would connect such data bases to
user applications such as financial records and market research. Can any
client using different tools access open records for different purposes,
in different languages ? Can suppliers or comparative shoppers or programs
that search for best buys ? How would the Nexum, a simple communications
device, use server software to find the best buy ? Who do you compare features
? Models, grades, standards, ? All kinds of applications not invented need
to glide easily into existing systems.
The invention of credit, degrees, payment systems is easy
Color is better than black and white. Three dimensions
is better than two. Round in better than flat. Current instruction is gray
and flat - it needs to be colorful and round. Students in rows reviewing
text books under the control of an instructor is clearly colorless and
flat. Every once in awhile there is a little burst of color or a dark pit
but the surface is mostly two dimensional and the colors are black and

Keywords
weirdbrain
' (wîrd) adj., weird·er, weird·est. Of, relating to,
or suggestive of the preternatural or supernatural. Of a strikingly odd
or unusual character; strange. Archaic. Of or relating to fate or the Fates.
n.
Fate; destiny.
One's assigned lot or fortune, especially when evil. Often Weird. Greek
Mythology. Roman Mythology. One of the Fates. weird'ly adv. weird'ness
n. SYNONYMS: weird, eerie, uncanny, unearthly.
These adjectives refer to
what is of a mysteriously strange, usually frightening nature. Weird may
suggest the operation of supernatural influences, but it may also be applied
to what is merely odd or unusual: “
The person of the house gave a weird
little laugh” (Charles Dickens). “
There is a weird power in a spoken word”
(Joseph Conrad). Something eerie inspires inexplicable fear or uneasiness
that seems to result from a sinister influence: “At nightfall on the marshes,
the thing was eerie and fantastic to behold” (Robert Louis Stevenson).
Uncanny refers to what is unnatural and peculiarly unsettling: “
The queer
stumps . . . had uncanny shapes, as of monstrous creatures, whose eyes
seemed to peer out at you” (John Galsworthy). Something unearthly seems
so strange and unnatural as to come from or belong to another world: “He
could hear the unearthly scream of some curlew piercing the din” (Henry
Kingsley).

How

Since
the late 1880s, when wireless communications were first demonstrated, all
practical uses of radio have relied on the transmission of continuous sine
waves.
The modulation of those sine waves allows the transmission and reception
of information in either amplitude (AM radio) or frequency (FM radio).
From 1890 to the present, industry has searched relentlessly for ways to
send more information more reliably. Radio researchers have evolved techniques
such as CDMA, TDMA, etc.
Introduction to CDMA
http://www.time-domain.com/technology.htmlNow,
the entire wireless landscape has changed. Larry Fullerton discovered that
single RF monocycles could be transmitted through an antenna, and by precisely
positioning these monocycles in time and then using a matched receiver
to recover the transmissions, a whole new wireless medium was created,
'Digital Pulse Wireless' - a medium that does not rely on sine waves, does
not require an assigned frequency, does not need a power amplifier, and
is so random and low powered that it is indistinguishable from noise.
The
medium does require precise pulse placement in time (pulses are positioned
with an accuracy of trillionths of a second), and it also requires a coherent
correlating receiver - a Fullerton correlator. Larry Fullerton developed
and patented the technology over the last decade.
http://lasers.llnl.gov/lasers/idp/mir/files/MIR_info.html
The technology based on pulse-echo radar, discovered around the turn of
the century. Such radar leverages the speed of light as an integral component
of its operation, measuring the echo that results when a pulse strikes
an object to determine that object's distance from the pulse source.
Conventional
radar systems transmit several thousand such pulses per second. MIR, by
contrast, sends out over 1 million.
"In
the past, people used radio waves, but nobody cared how fast they were
going," McEwan said. "Now the consumer can use devices that actually clock
the speed of light in the form of microwave propagation, allowing them
to do things that they could never do before."
http://www.eet.com/news/97/937news/sensorapps.html
As
I understand IT , a new type of technology using Time Synchronization Systems
Through DCF77 or GPS signal and using a 10,000 MHTZ chip can transmit MEGA-BITS
the last mile. In synergy with solid state atomic level MEMORY TECHNOLOGY
data moves from FROM MEGA-BIT TO GIGA-BIT per second. High Speed processors
adapted from TERCOM - terrain contour matching 10,000 MHz chip used
in the cruise missile terrain following "smart bombs" or using guided radio
waves or laser beam targeting based on rapid image recognition.

NEW
DEVELOPMENTS IN STORAGEAccording to CMR (
http://www.cmruk.com/cmrinventions.html ), Professor Ted Williams and
his team are able to store 86 gigabytes per square centimeter, and to read
and write this data at 100 megabits/second. While few details are available
while their patents are pending, CMR does indicate that the process, funded

a different operating approach."
The
news tracker connection then runs everything
.
The Star Office 5.1
is a good example. It runs on open platforms and can be updated, reconfigured
to include sound and video telephones, and doesn't need to be completely
installed on every terminal but can run off the system network.
In
doing web pages, Netscape Composer, MS FrontPage, and Star Office use different
forms of code, HTTP ( hypertext ) different Java scripts, and can mess
each other and the author up. Now since they ( Netscape ( AOL ) and
Sun - part of the NOISE group, Netscape, Oracle, IBM, Sun and everyone
else - ) are enemies they may intend to screw each other with the author
in the middle.
How
about http://www.wiredbrain.net/battle.wav
and
too many other changes that work here but not there - audio plug-ins, ActiveX,
virtual machines, XML, etc. Etc..
This
is why the complex stuff has to be up-stream on the server if the communications
systems can communicate with each other.
The system knows where you
are (GPS), who you are ( IP) and what you are ( kind of device you are
using ) and what you want - voice, e-mail, conference, word processor,
accounts, pay a bill, collect a bill etc.
The
standards have to be set by SOMEONE - it can’t be done by a voluntary committee
as in the good old non commercial days when the DOD and NSF controlled
the net. It can’t be done by government ( too slow ) IT has to be global
- the EU and Asia are involved - sometimes well ahead.
The WWW system standard
was set at CERN - and the UN or a global trade or international postal
telecommunications agreement could set up a fast working body the approve
PROTOCALS. Now MS does the global job but is clearly not neutral or trustworthy,
since it is worth a good share of the almost trillion dollars in systems
sales.

XML: the most powerful productivity tool ever imaged:
I can write this text, I could insert picture or sound. I can create links ( hyper- links ) or imbedded functions ( scripts in several languages ) - e-mail it or post it to a web site that has scripts to run different functions. It is getting easier but still has lots of bugs.
Microsoft is again in a catch up position. Power corrupts and the lack of real time painful competition is what corrupted power means.
The NOISE group of Netscape, Oracle, IBM, Sun MicroSystems Corel and Everyone else had the model right years ago. With bandwidth ( such as private networks - intranets, extra-nets, and other high speed networks ) the network becomes the system. Each member of the system - clients and servers are integrated through common languages or objects.
When you open a web page, hypertext and imbedded objects can connect functions - edit, ( word processing ) analyze ( search, data bases ) and interoperate with each other using voice, images, data and text.
The idea is that a person interested in the service manual for a piece of equipment or operational system - a service engineer or client at a PC, or in the field using a lap top, wireless phone or other device not only could look up information but order parts, update systems, see graphic display, talk to experts, hold a meeting between the consultant and the providers and the home system would gather information about what is going on and what works and what doesn’t.
Providers of services - software, engineering, analysis, B2B, OEM, etc.. could all deal with each other using different languages, platforms and systems. This is the most powerful productivity tool ever imaged. System can adjust and improve in real time. A contractor in the field can order supplies from the best low cost provider, check delivery, pay accounts, check balances, talk to sub-contractors, revise plans and schedules, have the design changed and fixed, and 1000 and more details. No one can build a house without a cell phone - can any service be provided without real time communications ?
Who can do this unless they spend lots of money for services and software ?
The service providers can MS.net, oracle.net, IBM.net Sun.net, AOL.net, apple.net, excite.net, go.net, yahoo.net, - plug and play just like the cell phone. For $ 50 a month your ISP becomes an interactive system to other services.
The contractor enters his phone book, calendar, and buys services from engineers, accountants, and get free services from suppliers, banks, sub contractors, etc. Those connected have a great advantage over those out of the loop.

More power in a Palm Pilot than on the Apollo 10:
The accelerating rate of change forecast more change in the next century than in the last 10,000 years.
The increases in the rate of change between paradigms began at about 5000 years as ideas spread slowly - domestic animals, agriculture, metallurgy, then cities, bureaucracy and empires - then 500 years - printing, navigation, mathematics, deep mining up to the 18th century.
Then 100 years with potatoes, steam and steel, electric and chemical, communications and computers. Now in 25 years ideas are activated that used to take a century, then 12.5 years will have a century of 20th century progress, then 6.25 years what used to take a century and so forth.
The acceleration of the rate of change has been going on for a long time - it just gets faster and faster.
Therefore if Nano computer would have taken 50 years in the past it can be done in 12.5 years.
The speed of application of stem cells to build body parts, cloned cells used as normal therapies, use of immunization in treatments of ongoing virus infections and cancers, genetic engineered plants and animals as a normal accepted process, all being implemented at great speed. Even in a slow bulky industries such as cars - the fuel cell will move along more quickly than such technologies would have in the past. This really effects markets, marketing, and business planning in very fundamental ways.

Windows in the cloudy sky:
What Microsoft wants to do is control the servers with a MS provided next, next generation NT platform operating system called XML but not open and universal.
The .net system works with devices that have .net codes built it. Microsoft products will run on .net as a server - client interface - XML files, XML data base, XML storage, XML index, id, calendar, updates, notifications, out in the cloud on MS XML server software doing object imbedded codes.
The applications become notations or services on the page.
The universal canvas API. Hardware drives, across all the devices and the .net controller in the a cloud. Development applications are built on the XML kits connected to the browser. This was Netscape’s vision from the beginning.. This is why MS had to kill Netscape and the NOISE group and what the browser wars was really about.
The platform is in the sky - Microsoft idea is the new version of what Netscape and SUN - the NOISE group ( Netscape, Oracle, IBM, Sun, and Everyone else ) started talking about five years ago.
The server ( web site ) company internets, the ISP, wireless devices, i-appliances, game panels, can all use audio, video, photograph, office applications - word process, presentation, spread sheets, data bases, in a interactive way using a server AGENT or personalized options given the application, the device used, and the pattern of application - on a rental or fee-for-service basics. In other words all the complex stuff is up stream - rich standards based on XML works between platforms and programs but at the server not on the PC - This is the critical and profound change.
The server in the cloud does the transfer and integration - is the platform in the sky that can work with all kinds of devices. It can take a record from one place in one format and uses it in another program in a different format guided by the smart agent. Information can be used almost anywhere from almost anywhere.
The devices can use keyboards, mouse, voice, hand writing, file transfer, clip board, as inputs as well as agent intelligence on the server and user interface.

U.S. scientists closer to making new type
of supercomputer
By Reuters
Special to CNET News.com
March 15, 2000, 1:55 p.m. PT
LONDON--U.S. scientists moved a step closer to developing a
super-computer after looking at a branch of physics that researches the
physics of particles invisible to the human eye.
"In the language of quantum information science, we have realized a
four-quantum-bit logic gate. This system is relevant for the future development of
quantum information technology," the scientists said in the journal Nature.
Conventional computers are based on binary
"switches," or bits, which can either be switched on
or off. Computers carry out calculations utilizing these
switches.
Quantum theory holds that entities such as atoms do
not decide whether they exist in an on or off state
until they are measured or interact with something.
When they are not interacting, the atoms exist in both
states at once--a quantum superposition--said
Christopher Monroe, a researcher at the National
Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
Computers based on quantum physics would
therefore be able to have switches or "qbits" that exist
in both on and off states simultaneously.
A string of these quantum bits would consequently offer every possible on-off
combination and could carry out every calculation a computer needed
simultaneously, hugely increasing the computer's power and memory.

Bell Labs is known for revolutions.
In 1947 it was the transistor. Today it is photonics. Called the second silicon revolution, optical fiber systems are in an explosive state of development, reminiscent of the earlier days of the electronics industry.
Over the past two decades, since fiber-optic communications first began to appear, the carrying capacity of fiber has increased at a faster rate than Moore's law. Now the wavelength-division multiplexing revolution has accelerated that capacity even more, while introducing the flexibility
of wavelength-based routing. Forged from an interdisciplinary mix of semiconductor diode lasers, micromachine technology and fundamental advances in optical glass technology, terahertz networking has arrived well ahead of schedule.
It's a major revolution riding on a broad-based industry serving the fundamental human need to communicate.
"A length of fiber long enough to circle the globe three times is produced every day, and if you extrapolate current trends to 2010, every one of the 6 billion people on earth will have a bandwidth capability equivalent to high-definition television," said Alistair Glass, director of photonics research and development at Lucent Technologies Bell Laboratories. Arriving at Bell Labs in 1967, Glass' career spans the development and implementation of fiber-optic communications systems.
Major breakthrough
"When I arrived, the major breakthrough was the first continuously operating laser, and it didn't run for very long-only a few minutes," Glass recalled.
"This was the time of the early hero experiments and the demands kept increasing and increasing on these devices.
There was always that pressure, but the interest in the marketplace represented a dramatic change."
There was always a strong demand to increase the performance of any device.
At first the research arm of AT&T, Bell Labs enjoyed a special status after its founding in the 1920s. Because of the monopoly granted AT&T by the government, in the interests of standardizing the telephone system, the lab could both be part of a commercial operation and play the open role of a national laboratory.
"At that time, there was not much connectivity with business- it was very much intellectually driven. We wanted to be leaders in all the fields relevant to communications," Glass said. But in the early 1980s two developments dramatically accelerated photonics research: commercial long-haul fiber-optic systems began to be installed commercially, and AT&T's monopoly was dissolved by the government, with parts of Bell Labs spun off into other companies as part of a complex divestiture of the telecommunications giant. "We were suddenly handed the mandate to develop commercial products out of our research efforts," he said.
The lab responded with a broad attack on optical communications systems. Innovations in the basic fiber, laser diodes to power them, and integrated optoelectronic components to interface with electronic data systems followed. "Since then, particularly with the founding of Lucent Technologies, optics has been accelerating at an incredible rate," Glass said.
For transporting data over long distances, fiber systems proved to be irresistible. Large bundles of copper wire could be replaced by slender silicon fibers in a process of "demassification" usually associated with the electronics industry. While the debate continues over whether optical interconnect is a viable alternative to electrical wiring inside of computers, the issue has been definitively resolved for long-distance communications. But optical interconnect inside the box may eventually succumb to a long-term trend. Recent developments in metropolitan-area networks suggest that fiber optics is riding a scaling law similar to the shrinking VLSI circuit, and the scaling rate appears to be steeper.
The rapid deployment of fiber optics received an even bigger jolt with a repeat of the '80s scenario in the 1990s. Bell Labs was again transferred in 1996 to another entity-Lucent Technologies-and made the centerpiece of a startup with considerable economic resources. Also brewing in photonics labs was a revolutionary technology called dense wavelength-division multiplexing (DWDM), which has allowed the carrying capacity of optical fiber to ramp up at an astonishing rate. "In the mid-90s it became a fever. We went from eight to 16 to 32 wavelengths on a single fiber and our latest products use 400. Now we have just demonstrated 1,000 wavelengths," Glass noted.
http://www.wiredbrain.net/dwdm.htm
DWDM uses individual segments of the optical spectrum to multiplex signals on a fiber.
The idea is recent, considered at first to be a laboratory curiosity since practical systems were already multiplexing channels with a time-division technique. Such synchronous optical networks (Sonet) had been able to extend the capacity of optical fiber and were a welcome development.
The wavelength-division multiplexing route has turned out to have far more potential: Bell Labs researchers recently demonstrated a DWDM transmission system capable of sending a terabit of data per second down a fiber. "That represents the entire world's Internet on a single glass fiber," Glass said.
The DWDM revolution has been extremely swift. When Lucent Technologies was established, DWDM was still at the laboratory demonstration stage. While the idea is simple, turning it into practical optical communications systems required a multifaceted development. Multiple-wavelength laser-diode systems and new types of fiber able to carry the multiple wavelength signals without crosstalk had to be developed. And some means of collectively amplifying multiwavelength signals had to be invented. While those problems were effectively solved in a short time, it wasn't easy. Indeed, one outstanding problem has never been solved: how to regenerate multiple wavelength signals.
Large areas
One consequence of that missing solution is the fact that DWDM can only be implemented on campus-wide or metropolitan areas. By doping fiber with the rare-earth element erbium, it is possible to build a simple light amplifier that is essentially a laser. When a multiple wavelength signal is passed through an erbium fiber loop and optically pumped, it emerges unchanged except that it is at a higher energy level. One nice aspect of this operation is that the actual content of the wavelength channels is irrelevant to the amplification process. Unfortunately, to recondition optical signals, it becomes necessary to decode their content and relaunch them. Thus signal regeneration, which is essential in long-haul networks, is still unavailable to DWDM.
Balancing this deficiency in very long transmissions is a new wave of all-optical switching elements that are able to add or remove a wavelength channel from a fiber.
These add-drop multiplexers offer a high-speed switching function that could not be duplicated with electronics, and have made metropolitan-area networks into a unique flexible, high-throughput communications medium.
This essentially new form of photonics technology is spawning an industry in optical switching components. "Now people can invent a novel device that relates to communications and it will find its way into products extremely rapidly-less than a year," said Glass. "We are now in a situation of 'invent on demand' where as soon as a problem is perceived, someone immediately comes up with a solution."
This explosive growth poses a formidable challenge to electronics technology. "If you compare the speed of silicon chips versus the capacity of optical fiber communications, fiber optics is going significantly faster than electronics, and where the fiber ends-that becomes a significant bottleneck." Glass is convinced that fiber to the home office and then fiber to the home are just around the corner. "We have a demonstration project going with Bell South where we have wired up a suburban neighborhood with little fiber-optic network units on the side of each house," he said.
Dealing with the high volumes of data that are coming off optical fibers will present a big challenge to electronics. Fortunately, wavelength-division multiplexing eases that task since each wavelength can be processed simultaneously by different circuits. Ultimately, electronics and optics technologies offer complementary abilities: "Optics is ideal for transporting data from point A to point B, but it is weak in the area of logic and switching," Glass pointed out. "That is where we will need electronics."

The world economic summit is less interesting because the big and powerful
are less interesting.
The rate of technological has multiplied on itself because computers can work faster and communications are better therefore computers and communications becomes faster and faster. My guess is that optic fiber to the door will make on-air or cable broadcasting uneconomic - video on demand will replace it - the program producers will distribute directly to the consumer - like in MP3 - the video store goes on line -
The move producer - such as Blair Witch could be sold directly - same with any show or news or whatever - so there goes networks - maybe even magazine writers with direct sales -
Wireless systems can get up to 400 kps to a million somehow - http://www.wiredbrain.net/symbian.htm for a lot of applications that is fine - and OS chip technology will make greater use of less and less with less energy and heat - more light and lighter -

If I were a high technology company - in information systems, computers,
communications or any part of the 25 % of the economy - and almost all the growth sector - now including networks - broadcasting - publishing - entertainment - music - video - electronics - service - I would have a venture capital connection so I could send people out and find out what is going on.
The battle for the airwaves is not just about broadband but the content - software and services. If you put a few hundred thousand in interesting technologies you gain access to information.
There is almost a certainty that something will come from left field and change all the rules again.
Cable is too slow and greedy.
The telephone companies too slow and bureaucratic. Both have shown a preference for short term gains rather than long term survival. Microsoft is showing the same brain arthritis - inflexible - such as IBM was - GM and other big and rich - missed every important technology - but could buy it after it had been proven. That may or may not be possible. .

The most common wireless transmission standard, GSM, which stands for
Global Systems for Mobile communications, is particularly prevalent in
Europe and Asia. According to market research firm Dataquest, nearly 157
million GSM-based mobile phones will be shipped worldwide this year,
compared with shipments of about 43 million CDMA cell phones.
But many industry observers say CDMA, strongest in North America, is more
efficient and can handle Internet-based transmissions better.
There is also time division and dense systems - I do believe the key is China - the PLA and post telegraph - along with the EU will set the standards.

So Where is the Wireless Web?
by Dee McVicker
February 11, 2000
Network operations are currently divided into three technology families, code division multiple access (CDMA), time division multiple access (TDMA), and global system for mobile communication (GSM).
http://www.wiredbrain.net/symbian.htm
If we gave you 800-kilobit packet-data service as a user, we could fit 100 voice calls into that same bandwidth,"
Japan's NTT DoCoMo doesn't have the same concern, one reason why it's not hesitating to jump into 3G. Japanese and European operators running out of bandwidth can license new spectrum for 3G; U.S. operators cannot.
Eventually, the goal is "third generation," or 3G, devices (digital cell phones were the second generation) that will deliver data rates of up to 2 Mbps. Just for comparison, current cellular-network transfer rates plod along at 9.6 Kbps or 14.4 Kbps, at best, which is OK for e-mail and some of the new Internet services being lauded by cell-phone carriers. Phone.com's (PHCM) Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) microbrowser is helping squeeze the Web into these pipes, but that's a stopgap measure.
Wireless data is hot. You can't open a magazine without reading about microbrowsers on cell phones or turn on a television without seeing an advertisement for the Internet-in-your-pocket.
Japan is blasting away, with all jets driving, toward the new wireless Internet. As far back as October 19, 1998, NTT Mobile Communications Network Inc. (NTT DoCoMo, Tokyo), Japan's leading mobile operator, piloted a cellular network that joined together the cell phone and motion video.
Expected to launch commercially in March 2001, the network and others like it will give birth to a new wireless-communications era. For NTT DoCoMo's 3 million "i-mode" cell-phone subscribers (roughly 10 percent of the company's total customer base), for example, it will mean wireless high-speed Internet news, banking, video streaming, travel reservations, Web radio, and a slew of other services.

The following image need to be firmly in mind to understand the AOL/ Time
Warner deal - and the frenzy going on in telecommunications and computer
industries.
The time frame is about 10 years - the impact comes first in
Northern Europe - Singapore - parts of the states - parts of Hong Kong and
China - Japan - Taiwan - South East Asia - Australia ( already with system

There is optic to the door provided by the utility company. It is a common carrier
providing:
TV programs on demand on a big flat screen digital high definition system -
programs are recorded and played as you desire, when you desire on any of the
screens around the wired house you desire.
There is no need for program schedules
- movies and other video content are downloaded on demand from world wide
services. Some charge fees some are free with or without ads. You can watch the
BBC news or CNN or C-span type programs any time.
There is no need for movie
or music channels since you can order anything you want anytime.
The same with music, either rented for a limited number of replays, or purchased and
transferred to CD or DVD -
The same with interactive media - games and
educational services for the wired " smart" house - When you leave the security
system goes on - with complete radar monitoring of any motion with recording of
motion, the heat or AC is turned down, when you click from your cell phone that
you are returning home - the lights and heat or AC is reset, the music turned on and
the doors unsecured.
The cell phone - palm pilot - personal digital assistant works at 400 kbps to 4 Mbs
with GPS, e-mail and other web content, fold up or screen keyboards, long life
batteries, high gain reception of dense multiplex time division wideband GS3 codes.
Europe, with its common GSM standard, will likely usher in "3G" technologies (with their 2 megabit/second

will surely usher in many new Opportunities. -

The home terminal - NEXUM - provides wireless ( bluetooth ) connection to the
mobile elements, TV, music, games, information systems with voice commands. You
say " Write a note" and dictate as it appears on the big screen. You correct with the
portable keyboard that is used for interactive TV.
The master computer works
within a network "master server in the sky" to provide services you need or enjoy.
Shopping, banking, tele-communities, video conferences, design and research,
games and social activities, travel and adventure, and tuned to your interests and
desires.
The master server bills for usage in micro pennies for "extras" but charges a
flat fee for "basic services". Several master server companies compete for services
on the common carrier -
The services are not tied to the wire - optic cable - so there are two bills - one for
connection services - the wireless and wired ( optic ) and another from the service
company that passes along charges for rentals, fee for service charges, software
licenses, communications on and off net, as we do today with local and long distance
phone services and premium cable services.
Where is the money made ? Optic fiber hardware - mobile hardware, utility
company right-of-way and network services, the "general utility service company"
maybe AOL, Microsoft, NOISE group ( Netscape, Oracle, IBM, Sun
Microsystems and everyone else ) Amazon, or others which provides the interface
between the user and service providers - banks, insurance, finance and markets,
shopping, software and music and games and movies and communications, and
entertainment, security, smart home management, and on and on...

All Boiled down on CONVERGENCE AOL: the super market of the world
What does AOL Time Warner ( and Wal-Mart, & some Computer terminal
company and cable modem or broadband connection ) mean for the future of
global society ? What is the image they pursue ? http://www.wiredbrain.net/symbian.htm
CONVERGENCE: Interactive television, combining audio telephone, video
conference and cable or satellite TV, video on demand, all designed to
advertise and sell on the spot all kinds of good and services.
What is called "entertainment" on television is different from plays,
or movies or theme parks or games or sports because the role of "content"
is only to attract an audience so they can be sold something.
The job of
television is sales - not news or information or entertainment which are
only provided so people watch and can be sold something.
The role of AOL
/ Time Warner will be not only to sell others goods but direct sales.
Their
dream is the click and buy advantages of two way communications.
In the process cable or other broadband can replace a good share of
long distance voice, video rentals, VPN virtual private networks, if and
only if, the broadband connections really works then personal computers
become network devices or http://www.wiredbrain.net/nano.htm
a multipurpose communications and entertainment console.
AOL Time Warner believe that whatever the method for the broadband connections
they will control the content.
The contact rates - for cable, telephone,
Internet and video on demand provide cash flows that support the capital
for improved networks and on-line sales provide the profits.
It's not only that you can buy your tooth paste from the commercial
( click here to add it to your Wal-mart order ) but you might get free
samples for filling out forms. You can add with a click to your grocery
list. People really will buy travel deals, change banks or brokers, buy
records after getting MP3 samples, select household gadgets, buy gifts,
use auctions, even pick appliances and cars.
They will seek better mortgage
and insurance rates, look for a new house, and a thousand other products
and services.
http://www.wiredbrain.net/disintermedation.htm
disintermediation means becoming the middle person between the buyer
and seller. On-line systems such as Amazon.com means direct sales take
on a whole new meaning. I would look for a Amazon Wal-mart connection if
not merger.

Broadband Race Is on the Rise in Hong Kong
Last week, the Hong Kong government took another step to open further the telecom market to competition by issuing a total of 17 fixed network licenses (5 licenses for wireless local fixed telecommunications network services (FTNS), and another 12 licenses for external FTNS using satellites).
The licenses will last for 15 years, with an option to extend for another 15 years. In addition, the government has agreed to issue an FTNS license to Hong Kong Cable TV to provide telecom services over its hybrid fiber-coaxial cable networks.

The battle of the air waves is just not between cable modems ( which don't work
very well ) and DSL which has many problems and is priced too high. Optic fiber to
the door and new wideband line of sight or some technology using power lines may
jump ahead. It's a tough call to invest billions per day.
The dense urban markets, the rural markets, the issues in China and other world markets, all may not have the
same solution. Satellite systems have a role, but it seems the analysis is too tightly drawn in the box - there are sure to be out of the box answers.
``Wireless Internet devices will not only capture some existing PC applications but
introduce brand new applications that the desk-top PC has no way to handle today,''
Engibous told a Tokyo seminar on the company's strategy.
``I think the availability of a wireless device that is online all the time with broadband data capability...offers the possibility of applications that Silicon Valley'' is just beginning to dream about, he added.
With next-generation mobile phone services, users will be able to surf the Web,
check and respond to e-mail, conduct videoconferences and use new mobile
services such as e-commerce, he said.
Next-generation mobile phone services will be offered in Japan beginning in the
spring of 2001, and later in other parts of the world.

Broadband in the Local Loop 98:
Cable Modem Madness vs. xDSL Dementia
http://www.fwdconcepts.com/brdbnd98.htm
New Study Concludes G.lite not enough to overcome advantages
and head start of cable modems
http://www.fwdconcepts.com/press13.htm
According to the study, cable modems will win the lion's share of the residential
broadband market, outnumbering DSL modems 5:1 in North American and 2.6:1
worldwide by the year 2003.
The five-year growth rate for cable modems is
forecast to be 93% in North America and 114% in other regions.
The Study concludes that the rollout plans announced by the telcos are unrealistically
optimistic, that the services are too high-priced for the mainstream residential
market, and face many technical and regulatory hurdles--oft overlooked in the
excitement of bringing in a new age of high speed IP-based telecommunications.
Forward Concepts also believes that splitterless DSL still has many technical
unknowns, and that its suitability as a "universal" service is still open to question.
DSL services also jeopardize existing, highly profitable, data communications
services, further reducing motivation for rollout by the telcos.
The cable companies,
in contrast, see IP-video, IP telephony, Internet access, and remote LAN access as
pure incremental upside revenue opportunities, unencumbered by existing services.

AOL can do what Sears did.
The Sears brands were produced by OEM ( original
equipment manufactures ) with Sears keeping a very tight control of quality
and margins. Many of their providers became dependents. B2B means the intermediary
can arrange shipments from the provider to the buyer and become the super
market of the world.
Also some new technology may come along to change all the rules

"Nortel has used its technology, called Digital PowerLine (DPL), successfully in European and Asian markets. Currently, the company has agreements with 10 non-U.S. utilities that serve 35 million homes, says Dan Middleton, director of carrier packet solutions at Nortel's power line networks division.
If physicist Luke Stewart can do what he says he can send voice, video, and data thousands of miles over electric lines
at the speed of light he will produce perhaps the most significant development in communications since Alexander
Graham Bell.
That could take the company he cofounded in North Dallas, Media Fusion L.L.C., to heights greater than Microsoft in both
earnings and market value.

economics come from the structure of industry and enterprise - clearly

A short introduction to quantum computation
Max PLANCK and Heisenberg, and Erwin SCHRÖDINGER's wave mechanics,
and Born, are the people of the 20th century who will most influence the
21 st. We will see the application of quantum computer fairly soon. It
could ( so will ) have some level of self awareness we call consciousness
http://www.qubit.org/intros/comp/comp.html
Being in two places at the same time - or going from here to there without
passing through the space between.
The nature of matter at this level is
little energy spots rather than matter as we experience it, energy that
change quantum states - transform from one state to another instantly.
"
The history of computer technology has involved a sequence of changes
from one type of physical realization to another --- from gears to relays
to valves to transistors to integrated circuits and so on ...
On the atomic scale matter obeys the rules of quantum mechanics,
which are quite different from the classical rules that determine the properties
of conventional logic gates. So if computers are to become smaller in the
future, new, quantum technology must replace or supplement what we have
now.
The point is, however, that quantum technology can offer much more
than cramming more and more bits to silicon and multiplying the clock-speed
of microprocessors. It can support entirely new kind of computation with
qualitatively new algorithms based on quantum principles!
Three basic categories of elementary particles were ultimately distinguished:
leptons, quarks, and bosons. Leptons and quarks are FERMIONS, the basic
constituents of nuclear and atomic structure, or MATTER; BOSONS are the
particles that transmit the fundamental FORCES of nature between fermions.
The smallest class of elementary particles is that of the massless bosons,
which comprises the PHOTON, gluon, W AND Z PARTICLES, and the hypothetical
graviton.
The lepton class contains twelve particles: the electron, muon,
tauon, and their antiparticles, and the neutrino or antineutrino associated
with each.
The QUARKS, the third class, also number twelve: the whimsically
named up, down, charm, strange, top (or truth), and bottom (or beauty)
quarks and their antiparticles. Quarks are always found in pairs or triplets
with other quarks or antiquarks to form particles called hadrons.
In the begining there was the big bang.
Then all was
dark for awhile.
The force of gravaty produced matter and stars and light.
Most of the stuff remained dark with antimatter and antigravity.
The mind
of the universe moves from simple to complex, in a pattern of relationships
too complex to happen purely by chance.
The system desired to become aware
of itself or there would be no point in the exercise.
Elementary particles interact with one another through the four fundamental
forces: GRAVITATION, electromagnetism, WEAK INTERACTION, and STRONG INTERACTION.
Gravitation is experienced by all particles of known matter and anti-gravidy
created the asymmetrical forces that created the universe, electromagnetism
is experienced only by charged particles, such as the electron, proton,
and muon. Hadrons and leptons, including the electron, muon, and the neutrinos,
participate in the weak interaction associated with particle decay.
The
strong interaction is responsible for the structure of the atomic nucleus,
and only hadrons participate in it.

Life and cognizance exists on the edge of quantum

rules - objects have properties that allow them to move from here to there

bends. Objects themselves appear, take on properties, and then change their
character and reappears in a different form.
At the atomic and molecular level the connections can
be open and creative rather than mechanical and determined. Uncertainty

People who purchase a PC with the belief that
computer literacy is not necessary are kidding themselves. Still, millions
of people, including my grandparents, are buying PCs with the mistaken
notion that they're no more difficult to operate than VCRs. Many PC owners
don't know how to do the basic tasks, such as installing software and hardware
and defragmenting a disk drive. And God help them if they ever have to
reinstall the operating system. Making the PC easier to maintain would
require the companies that produce the operating systems, software and
hardware to work together in harmony. This will never happen.
It's a problem crying out for a solution. And it's
not hard to imagine one: What if I told you that I could provide you with
a solid-state device a quarter of the size of a PC that had no moving parts
to break? You could run 50 software titles such as Word, WordPerfect, Lotus
SmartSuite, Quattro Pro and Quicken, as well as games. You would never
have to upgrade those applications because they would be upgraded for you.
With this device, you could watch more than 175 cable channels and select
from thousands of movie titles that you could watch either on the machine
or on the TV in your living room.
This device would have a hard drive so large that you
could never fill it up. And you never would have to back up files again
because they would be backed up for you every night. If lightning hit this
device while you were using it out by the pool, you might lose some hair
and skin, but you wouldn't lose data—and I could overnight you another
machine.
There would be no problems with an operating system, hardware
drivers or other software. You would simply plug it into your cable box,
and you're ready to go.
Services for the masses
In the near future, services such as these will
replace the PC for millions of people who were never cut out to be PC administrators.
Thin-client operating systems, such as Citrix MetaFrame running on MS Terminal
Server, combined with ISDN, ADSL or cable modem Internet access, will inevitably
be the basis of a virtual PC service that will revolutionize the industry.
Instead of buying a PC, you would pay the company a
monthly fee, and the company would send you a Winterm device that plugs
into your new high-bandwidth Internet connection, which links to its service.
After powering it on, you would simply hit "connect" and your personalized
GUI desktop would pop up on the screen. You could instantly run hundreds
of applications without installing anything. Any time you saved files,
they'd actually be saved to a server's hard drives, which would be backed
up every night. Combine these services with an e-mail account, and watch
PC sales plummet. After all, who would want to buy a PC with software that
had to be upgraded every year, if you could hire a service to take care
of the mess? Many corporations, tired of the cost and IS staff required
to manage hundreds of PCs, would jump on it.
The technology to build a virtual PC service is here
today. Other technologies, such as movies on demand, are probably a few
years out.
The advent of virtual computing will shift the entire PC infrastructure
with such momentum that the PC as we know it today will be used only by
a group of oddballs: "computer" people.

The Batle of the Air waves
What is GS3 ( Global System 3 ) for MS that Bill is going to do 100 % of the time ? - first there was the
mainframe and IBM - then the PC and MS - now the nexum - with MS-2 a marketing and communications
empire??
The keys are both the hand held portable GMS and the home appliance - the universal
communications device that runs as a terminal - software ( by MS ) and OS by MS - to provide operations on a
rental or fixed fee for service system - It owns the pipe - it owns the birds - it owns the OS - but provides
content and services for all ( Bill's idea of open systems ) This is where AOL should have been going rather than
content which is begging for distribution. Content must have eyeballs - but the owner of the pipe and OS is
KING !
In 1997 LMDS Local Multipoint
Distribution Service -- has become the Manhattan Project of the
telecommunications industry.
http://www.zdnet.com/intweek/print/970908/inwk0002.html
But then what happened - several companies pay top dollar for the new 28-gigahertz broadband connection -
several went bankrupt
NOW
http://www4.zdnet.com:80/intweek/stories/news/0,4164,2419875,00.html
McCaw and Bill still think with Teledesic, ICO Global, Nextel Nextlink etc. and create a last mile system build
on optic fiber with a wireless last mile - Time division hardware is out there -
I should mention the NEXUM (
http://www.wiredbrain.net/nexum.htm )
The idea is simple but the roll out
complex because of billions in hardware. A high capacity satellite link to optic fiber - to wireless for the last mile
- data ( high speed internet and VPN ) video and telephone i.e. voice
Why isn't AOL in this kind of deal rather than Warner and cable ? McCaw knows cable and believes it will be
by passed ? This is the battle of the century - the new war of the AirWaves - (
The last was between Armstrong
and RCA - Sarnoff about Radio and FM see
http://www.wiredbrain.net/disintermediation.htm) A superheterodyne circuit developed by U.S. Army Signal Corps major Edwin Howard
Armstrong, 26, became the basic design for all amplitude modulation (AM) radios. It
greatly increases the selectivity and sensitivity of radio receivers over a wide band of frequencies (see 1906; FM, 1933). Radio Corp. of America (RCA) was founded by Owen D. Young (see 1919) who loans Ernst Alexanderson to RCA which will employ him as chief engineer for 5 years (see 1906). RCA acquired the Victor Co. and become a
radio-phonograph colossus but anti-trust court actions will separate RCA from GE (see
VICTROLA, 1906; NBC, 1926). David Sarnoff urges marketing of a simple "radio music
box."
The American Marconi Co. says his plan will make the radio "a ‘household
utility’ in the same sense as the piano or phonograph" (see 1912; 1920).
In order to sell the system - the NEXUM a universal communications device which works on line all the time -
dial tone connections - with video and hot internet you first go after the corporate market - CONCENTRIC
with optic fiber, T1 and DSL lines then the small business user and set up a big private network.
Then you roll
out the same high speed service for domestic users in some markets -
I am looking into it - thanks - the AOL Warner raises issuers of cable access.
Someone must know something so that cable can be used on a wide scale - AOL knows all too well that the
future of low speed mass market for their
service is very limited. I believe in wireless - optic broadband doing the last
mile via some kind of microwave radar -
The issue is China -
The PLA and post telegraph have hundred of millions of new users and can't string wires -
but can run a optic fiber backbone with radio towers CDM code or time division multiplex - either only needs a
little push to get there. What about Direct TV downlink and DSL up - these are the BIG issues. Who
controls the rules and protocols controls a lot.

The
new school
What could an relevant on-line school be like.
-
Color is better than black and white.
-
Three dimensions is better than two.
-
Round is better than flat.
-
Fast is more successful than slow.
Civilization progresses with greater literacy,
greater attention to the laws of man and nature, and greater freedom of
participation.
Current instruction is gray and flat - it needs to
be colorful and round. Instruction is slow, knowledge is cut into fragments
and reassembled, creative participation is discouraged at all levels.
The
iron law of bureaucracy operates freely in almost all schools.
Students in rows reviewing text books under the control
of an instructor is clearly colorless and flat. Every once in awhile there
is a little burst of color or a dark pit but the surface is mostly two
dimensional and the colors are black and white.
There are several clear themes as we move from two dimensions
to many:
1. ) Knowledge is not only transferred but invented
a lot of learning takes place in the process of invention
2.)
The organizing themes are tasks not subjects ,
Knowledge is organized around functions not disciplines
3.) there is creative interaction between teachers
and learners and less distinctions between actors and classes.
The word is convergence
- Technology, communications, human organization, marketing, finance, and
further explorations of the future rushing in upon us.
The NEXUM project:
http://www.wiredbrain.net/symbian.htm
A clear image:
Since the Fallow’s article almost 10 years ago http://www.wiredbrain.net/documents/logos/fallow01.txt
and fallow.txt I have a changing image of the communications in the age
of technology. I have believed the free market would produce was rational,
logical, technologically economic communications system which looked like
this:
A receiver dish on your desk or outside on the wall
of your house and office broadcasts and receives digital signals from a
transmitters in the neighborhood ( up to 30 miles away - line of sight
or maybe not ). This single connection would provide really high speed
broadband - gigs per second - cable, telephone, Internet ( converged with
TV and phone ).
The big business will be service providers doing all the
hard stuff ( software ) up line. You IP number would connect you to the
world and the world to you where ever on what ever. Your domain name would
replace phone numbers, and all the other ID problems with transactions
in electric money as the device knows who you are ( thumb print, retina
read ).
If you wanted to write a letter - using voice recognition
from your cell phone to your NEXUM ( PC network device ) and e-mail it
or print it ( using Bluetooth ) or any financial, business, personal transaction
it would fly through the air from where-ever to where-ever.
The 100’s of millions of new connections in China and
the rest of the world without wires would use the same broadband wireless
system.
The phone companies, cable companies, broadcast companies, cell
phones, and computer hardware and software would all be in the IT communications
business. It is happening - http://www.wiredbrain.net/NEXUM.htm and http://www.wiredbrain.net/symbian.htm
The billion people on the Internet we talked about
a couple of years ago ( http://www.wiredbrain.net/packets.htm are almost
here.
The Internet as the links to phones, it is here now.
The TV Internet
connection is here @home and @work. What has not as been created is bandwidth
and the NC ( NEXUM ) but they are just over the horizon, looking More and
more like the playstation II and in the $ 350 range or comes with the $
50 monthly user fees including long distance, cable channels picked off
Satellites, Internet - Video user interface etc.
Sure people will use DSL ( fairly high speed phone
on copper ) people will use two way cable, some people and business will
use direct satellite or be on optic fiber, ( people still ride horses,
use wagons, sail boats, and walk but cars and planes have most of the transport
business ) BUT VOFDM, MMDS will replace most of these wired links by wireless,
better, freer more competitive services. I can’t track down the low power
radar (MIR) time division wideband line of sight transmitter and receivers
but it is being used by the military and seems to have no limits. Optic
fiber switches are in production to handle to backbone and local nodes.
The cost of communications content is dropping faster
than hardware - more that twice as much at half the cost every 18 months
by an order of magnitude ( 10 times more capacity for 1/10th as much cost
) ( Moore’s Law 10 X )
The design of the general communications and computing
device.
Design teams of teachers ( from around the world ) and
students from anywhere working on the interface of communications technology,
processing capacity, storage and data transfer compression, marketing,
finance, human machine interface ( ergonomics http://www.wiredbrain.net/ergonomics.htm
) because the specialist now has to consider bandwidth, chip capacities,
applications, service systems, distribution systems, content and market
demand factors all in one organized package.
Management, information technology, marketing, human
resources and production need to work together. Traditional products such
as automobiles and space rockets and atomic ships has advanced some in
design integration but computers still have a way to go - the
NEXT
must leap frog current compartment thinking into
new dimensions of systems analysis.
How is systems analysis different
from what has been used in the last 40 years.
It is more colorful and has more dimensions.
It becomes much more complex where there are many clients,
with many applications, using different languages and protocols. A great
server should ask and how do we establish an interface, what language do
you use, what program do you want, what operating system does it use, and
can I remember all this the next time we make contact ?
Amazon.com has shown the way within one set of protocols
of how to be client centric. Every store both e and non-e, should be able
to track several open ended data bases - inventory, catalog, store, client,
sales person, so as to show what exists and who is buying it. Wal-mart
and Builders Square, Office supply and Sears should have a the catalog
and inventory on line at the cash registrar and on-line for the buyers
with items, pictures, prices as well as complete lists of any clients or
sales person’s recorded sales. It world make it a lot easier for contractors
or anyone buying many different items.
A friendly server would connect such data bases to
user applications such as financial records and market research. Can any
client using different tools access open records for different purposes,
in different languages ? Can suppliers or comparative shoppers or programs
that search for best buys ? How would the Nexum, a simple communications
device, use server software to find the best buy ? Who do you compare features
? Models, grades, standards, ? All kinds of applications not invented need
to glide easily into existing systems.
The invention of credit, degrees, payment systems is easy
Color is better than black and white. Three dimensions
is better than two. Round in better than flat. Current instruction is gray
and flat - it needs to be colorful and round. Students in rows reviewing
text books under the control of an instructor is clearly colorless and
flat. Every once in awhile there is a little burst of color or a dark pit
but the surface is mostly two dimensional and the colors are black and

Keywords
weirdbrain
' (wîrd) adj., weird·er, weird·est. Of, relating to,
or suggestive of the preternatural or supernatural. Of a strikingly odd
or unusual character; strange. Archaic. Of or relating to fate or the Fates.
n.
Fate; destiny.
One's assigned lot or fortune, especially when evil. Often Weird. Greek
Mythology. Roman Mythology. One of the Fates. weird'ly adv. weird'ness
n. SYNONYMS: weird, eerie, uncanny, unearthly.
These adjectives refer to
what is of a mysteriously strange, usually frightening nature. Weird may
suggest the operation of supernatural influences, but it may also be applied
to what is merely odd or unusual: “
The person of the house gave a weird
little laugh” (Charles Dickens). “
There is a weird power in a spoken word”
(Joseph Conrad). Something eerie inspires inexplicable fear or uneasiness
that seems to result from a sinister influence: “At nightfall on the marshes,
the thing was eerie and fantastic to behold” (Robert Louis Stevenson).
Uncanny refers to what is unnatural and peculiarly unsettling: “
The queer
stumps . . . had uncanny shapes, as of monstrous creatures, whose eyes
seemed to peer out at you” (John Galsworthy). Something unearthly seems
so strange and unnatural as to come from or belong to another world: “He
could hear the unearthly scream of some curlew piercing the din” (Henry
Kingsley).

Since
the late 1880s, when wireless communications were first demonstrated, all
practical uses of radio have relied on the transmission of continuous sine
waves.
The modulation of those sine waves allows the transmission and reception
of information in either amplitude (AM radio) or frequency (FM radio).
From 1890 to the present, industry has searched relentlessly for ways to
send more information more reliably. Radio researchers have evolved techniques
such as CDMA, TDMA, etc.
Introduction to CDMA
http://www.time-domain.com/technology.htmlNow,
the entire wireless landscape has changed. Larry Fullerton discovered that
single RF monocycles could be transmitted through an antenna, and by precisely
positioning these monocycles in time and then using a matched receiver
to recover the transmissions, a whole new wireless medium was created,
'Digital Pulse Wireless' - a medium that does not rely on sine waves, does
not require an assigned frequency, does not need a power amplifier, and
is so random and low powered that it is indistinguishable from noise.
The
medium does require precise pulse placement in time (pulses are positioned
with an accuracy of trillionths of a second), and it also requires a coherent
correlating receiver - a Fullerton correlator. Larry Fullerton developed
and patented the technology over the last decade.
http://lasers.llnl.gov/lasers/idp/mir/files/MIR_info.html
The technology based on pulse-echo radar, discovered around the turn of
the century. Such radar leverages the speed of light as an integral component
of its operation, measuring the echo that results when a pulse strikes
an object to determine that object's distance from the pulse source.
Conventional
radar systems transmit several thousand such pulses per second. MIR, by
contrast, sends out over 1 million.
"In
the past, people used radio waves, but nobody cared how fast they were
going," McEwan said. "Now the consumer can use devices that actually clock
the speed of light in the form of microwave propagation, allowing them
to do things that they could never do before."
http://www.eet.com/news/97/937news/sensorapps.html
As
I understand IT , a new type of technology using Time Synchronization Systems
Through DCF77 or GPS signal and using a 10,000 MHTZ chip can transmit MEGA-BITS
the last mile. In synergy with solid state atomic level MEMORY TECHNOLOGY
data moves from FROM MEGA-BIT TO GIGA-BIT per second. High Speed processors
adapted from TERCOM - terrain contour matching 10,000 MHz chip used
in the cruise missile terrain following "smart bombs" or using guided radio
waves or laser beam targeting based on rapid image recognition.

NEW
DEVELOPMENTS IN STORAGEAccording to CMR (
http://www.cmruk.com/cmrinventions.html ), Professor Ted Williams and
his team are able to store 86 gigabytes per square centimeter, and to read
and write this data at 100 megabits/second. While few details are available

The
news tracker connection then runs everything
.
The Star Office 5.1
is a good example. It runs on open platforms and can be updated, reconfigured
to include sound and video telephones, and doesn't need to be completely
installed on every terminal but can run off the system network.
In
doing web pages, Netscape Composer, MS FrontPage, and Star Office use different
forms of code, HTTP ( hypertext ) different Java scripts, and can mess
each other and the author up. Now since they ( Netscape ( AOL ) and
Sun - part of the NOISE group, Netscape, Oracle, IBM, Sun and everyone
else - ) are enemies they may intend to screw each other with the author
in the middle.
How
about http://www.wiredbrain.net/battle.wav
and
too many other changes that work here but not there - audio plug-ins, ActiveX,
virtual machines, XML, etc. Etc..
This
is why the complex stuff has to be up-stream on the server if the communications
systems can communicate with each other.
The system knows where you
are (GPS), who you are ( IP) and what you are ( kind of device you are
using ) and what you want - voice, e-mail, conference, word processor,
accounts, pay a bill, collect a bill etc.
The
standards have to be set by SOMEONE - it can’t be done by a voluntary committee
as in the good old non commercial days when the DOD and NSF controlled
the net. It can’t be done by government ( too slow ) IT has to be global
- the EU and Asia are involved - sometimes well ahead.
The WWW system standard
was set at CERN - and the UN or a global trade or international postal
telecommunications agreement could set up a fast working body the approve
PROTOCALS. Now MS does the global job but is clearly not neutral or trustworthy,
since it is worth a good share of the almost trillion dollars in systems
sales.

XML: the most powerful productivity tool ever imaged:
I can write this text, I could insert picture or sound. I can create links ( hyper- links ) or imbedded functions ( scripts in several languages ) - e-mail it or post it to a web site that has scripts to run different functions. It is getting easier but still has lots of bugs.
Microsoft is again in a catch up position. Power corrupts and the lack of real time painful competition is what corrupted power means.
The NOISE group of Netscape, Oracle, IBM, Sun MicroSystems Corel and Everyone else had the model right years ago. With bandwidth ( such as private networks - intranets, extra-nets, and other high speed networks ) the network becomes the system. Each member of the system - clients and servers are integrated through common languages or objects.
When you open a web page, hypertext and imbedded objects can connect functions - edit, ( word processing ) analyze ( search, data bases ) and interoperate with each other using voice, images, data and text.
The idea is that a person interested in the service manual for a piece of equipment or operational system - a service engineer or client at a PC, or in the field using a lap top, wireless phone or other device not only could look up information but order parts, update systems, see graphic display, talk to experts, hold a meeting between the consultant and the providers and the home system would gather information about what is going on and what works and what doesn’t.
Providers of services - software, engineering, analysis, B2B, OEM, etc.. could all deal with each other using different languages, platforms and systems. This is the most powerful productivity tool ever imaged. System can adjust and improve in real time. A contractor in the field can order supplies from the best low cost provider, check delivery, pay accounts, check balances, talk to sub-contractors, revise plans and schedules, have the design changed and fixed, and 1000 and more details. No one can build a house without a cell phone - can any service be provided without real time communications ?
Who can do this unless they spend lots of money for services and software ?
The service providers can MS.net, oracle.net, IBM.net Sun.net, AOL.net, apple.net, excite.net, go.net, yahoo.net, - plug and play just like the cell phone. For $ 50 a month your ISP becomes an interactive system to other services.
The contractor enters his phone book, calendar, and buys services from engineers, accountants, and get free services from suppliers, banks, sub contractors, etc. Those connected have a great advantage over those out of the loop.

More power in a Palm Pilot than on the Apollo 10:
The accelerating rate of change forecast more change in the next century than in the last 10,000 years.
The increases in the rate of change between paradigms began at about 5000 years as ideas spread slowly - domestic animals, agriculture, metallurgy, then cities, bureaucracy and empires - then 500 years - printing, navigation, mathematics, deep mining up to the 18th century.
Then 100 years with potatoes, steam and steel, electric and chemical, communications and computers. Now in 25 years ideas are activated that used to take a century, then 12.5 years will have a century of 20th century progress, then 6.25 years what used to take a century and so forth.
The acceleration of the rate of change has been going on for a long time - it just gets faster and faster.
Therefore if Nano computer would have taken 50 years in the past it can be done in 12.5 years.
The speed of application of stem cells to build body parts, cloned cells used as normal therapies, use of immunization in treatments of ongoing virus infections and cancers, genetic engineered plants and animals as a normal accepted process, all being implemented at great speed. Even in a slow bulky industries such as cars - the fuel cell will move along more quickly than such technologies would have in the past. This really effects markets, marketing, and business planning in very fundamental ways.

ZDNet's "Your Digital Future" represents a fascinating, almost overwhelming look into the
changes we're likely to be seeing in:
-
E-Business (XML, WAP, human language translation, security, B2B technologies,
micropayments, enterprise-wide information systems, and more) http://www.zdnet.com/pcmag/stories/reviews/0,6755,2608415,00.html
;
- Internet technologies (the Internet's growing pervasiveness, Instant Messaging
becoming as interoperable as the Web, applications that thrive on the "new
connectivity," secure protocols, better ways to deliver high-bandwidth
content, future "agent" technology, and more) http://www.zdnet.com/pcmag/stories/reviews/0,6755,2608416,00.html
;
-
The infrastructures that tie all this together and allow it all to work
(fiber-fiber-fiber, wireless of many different flavors, PDAs and cell phones,
radios -- from ultra wideband to software-defined, and more)
http://www.zdnet.com/pcmag/stories/reviews/0,6755,2608417,00.html
;
- Computing technologies (.18 to .13 micron chips, silicon-on-insulator, and
copper interconnects yielding 12 GHz chips by 2005! Commodity systems in 2003
that have 5 GHz processors, 10 gigabytes of memory, 300 gigabyte hard drives,
and half-gigabit/second USB. A look
into evolving chip architectures, and all of this leading to systems that "will
still be outdated within a year of purchase."
Graphics performance in 2005 will be 1.6 trillion pixels at 48 billion
polygons per second. And 1 terabyte disk drives that same year.
And more.) http://www.zdnet.com/pcmag/stories/reviews/0,6755,2608418,00.html

Windows in the cloudy sky:
What Microsoft wants to do is control the servers with a MS provided next, next generation NT platform operating system called XML but not open and universal.
The .net system works with devices that have .net codes built it. Microsoft products will run on .net as a server - client interface - XML files, XML data base, XML storage, XML index, id, calendar, updates, notifications, out in the cloud on MS XML server software doing object imbedded codes.
The applications become notations or services on the page.
The universal canvas API. Hardware drives, across all the devices and the .net controller in the a cloud. Development applications are built on the XML kits connected to the browser. This was Netscape’s vision from the beginning.. This is why MS had to kill Netscape and the NOISE group and what the browser wars was really about.
The platform is in the sky - Microsoft idea is the new version of what Netscape and SUN - the NOISE group ( Netscape, Oracle, IBM, Sun, and Everyone else ) started talking about five years ago.
The server ( web site ) company internets, the ISP, wireless devices, i-appliances, game panels, can all use audio, video, photograph, office applications - word process, presentation, spread sheets, data bases, in a interactive way using a server AGENT or personalized options given the application, the device used, and the pattern of application - on a rental or fee-for-service basics. In other words all the complex stuff is up stream - rich standards based on XML works between platforms and programs but at the server not on the PC - This is the critical and profound change.
The server in the cloud does the transfer and integration - is the platform in the sky that can work with all kinds of devices. It can take a record from one place in one format and uses it in another program in a different format guided by the smart agent. Information can be used almost anywhere from almost anywhere.
The devices can use keyboards, mouse, voice, hand writing, file transfer, clip board, as inputs as well as agent intelligence on the server and user interface.
Not news - cloudy vision part two :
http://www.wired.com/news/lycos/0,1306,37168,00.html
Gates for the first time emphasized the Web browser as the central application of computing. Echoing remarks made by counterparts Marc Andreessen and Scott McNealy four years ago, Gates said the network is even more important than the computer.
http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/topics/f2k/default.asp
Microsoft is creating an advanced new generation of software that will meld computing and communications in revolutionary new ways; offer every developer the tools to transform the Web and all other aspects of the computing experience; and enable businesses, knowledge workers and consumers to employ technology on their own terms.

More power in a Palm Pilot than on the Apollo 10:
The accelerating rate of change forecast more change in the next century than in the last 10,000 years.
The increases in the rate of change between paradigms began at about 5000 years as ideas spread slowly - domestic animals, agriculture, metallurgy, then cities, bureaucracy and empires - then 500 years - printing, navigation, mathematics, deep mining up to the 18th century.
Then 100 years with potatoes, steam and steel, electric and chemical, communications and computers. Now in 25 years ideas are activated that used to take a century, then 12.5 years will have a century of 20th century progress, then 6.25 years what used to take a century and so forth.
The acceleration of the rate of change has been going on for a long time - it just gets faster and faster.
Therefore if Nano computer would have taken 50 years in the past it can be done in 12.5 years.
The speed of application of stem cells to build body parts, cloned cells used as normal therapies, use of immunization in treatments of ongoing virus infections and cancers, genetic engineered plants and animals as a normal accepted process, all being implemented at great speed. Even in a slow bulky industries such as cars - the fuel cell will move along more quickly than such technologies would have in the past. This really effects markets, marketing, and business planning in very fundamental ways.

XML: the most powerful productivity tool ever imaged:
I can write this text, I could insert picture or sound. I can create links ( hyper- links ) or imbedded functions ( scripts in several languages ) - e-mail it or post it to a web site that has scripts to run different functions. It is getting easier but still has lots of bugs.
Microsoft is again in a catch up position. Power corrupts and the lack of real time painful competition is what corrupted power means.
The NOISE group of Netscape, Oracle, IBM, Sun MicroSystems Corel and Everyone else had the model right years ago. With bandwidth ( such as private networks - intranets, extra-nets, and other high speed networks ) the network becomes the system. Each member of the system - clients and servers are integrated through common languages or objects.
When you open a web page, hypertext and imbedded objects can connect functions - edit, ( word processing ) analyze ( search, data bases ) and interoperate with each other using voice, images, data and text.
The idea is that a person interested in the service manual for a piece of equipment or operational system - a service engineer or client at a PC, or in the field using a lap top, wireless phone or other device not only could look up information but order parts, update systems, see graphic display, talk to experts, hold a meeting between the consultant and the providers and the home system would gather information about what is going on and what works and what doesn’t.
Providers of services - software, engineering, analysis, B2B, OEM, etc.. could all deal with each other using different languages, platforms and systems. This is the most powerful productivity tool ever imaged. System can adjust and improve in real time. A contractor in the field can order supplies from the best low cost provider, check delivery, pay accounts, check balances, talk to sub-contractors, revise plans and schedules, have the design changed and fixed, and 1000 and more details. No one can build a house without a cell phone - can any service be provided without real time communications ?
Who can do this unless they spend lots of money for services and software ?
The service providers can MS.net, oracle.net, IBM.net Sun.net, AOL.net, apple.net, excite.net, go.net, yahoo.net, - plug and play just like the cell phone. For $ 50 a month your ISP becomes an interactive system to other services.

More power in a Palm Pilot than on the Apollo 10:
The accelerating rate of change forecast more change in the next century than in the last 10,000 years.
The increases in the rate of change between paradigms began at about 5000 years as ideas spread slowly - domestic animals, agriculture, metallurgy, then cities, bureaucracy and empires - then 500 years - printing, navigation, mathematics, deep mining up to the 18th century.
Then 100 years with potatoes, steam and steel, electric and chemical, communications and computers. Now in 25 years ideas are activated that used to take a century, then 12.5 years will have a century of 20th century progress, then 6.25 years what used to take a century and so forth.
The acceleration of the rate of change has been going on for a long time - it just gets faster and faster.
Therefore if Nano computer would have taken 50 years in the past it can be done in 12.5 years.
The speed of application of stem cells to build body parts, cloned cells used as normal therapies, use of immunization in treatments of ongoing virus infections and cancers, genetic engineered plants and animals as a normal accepted process, all being implemented at great speed. Even in a slow bulky industries such as cars - the fuel cell will move along more quickly than such technologies would have in the past. This really effects markets, marketing, and business planning in very fundamental ways.

ZDNet's "Your Digital Future" represents a fascinating, almost overwhelming look into the
changes we're likely to be seeing in:
Microsoft is again in a catch up position. Power corrupts and the lack of real time painful competition is what corrupted power means.
The NOISE group of Netscape, Oracle, IBM, Sun MicroSystems Corel and Everyone else had the model right years ago. With bandwidth ( such as private networks - intranets, extra-nets, and other high speed networks ) the network becomes the system. Each member of the system - clients and servers are integrated through common languages or objects.
When you open a web page, hypertext and imbedded objects can connect functions - edit, ( word processing ) analyze ( search, data bases ) and interoperate with each other using voice, images, data and text.
The idea is that a person interested in the service manual for a piece of equipment or operational system - a service engineer or client at a PC, or in the field using a lap top, wireless phone or other device not only could look up information but order parts, update systems, see graphic display, talk to experts, hold a meeting between the consultant and the providers and the home system would gather information about what is going on and what works and what doesn’t.
Providers of services - software, engineering, analysis, B2B, OEM, etc.. could all deal with each other using different languages, platforms and systems. This is the most powerful productivity tool ever imaged. System can adjust and improve in real time. A contractor in the field can order supplies from the best low cost provider, check delivery, pay accounts, check balances, talk to sub-contractors, revise plans and schedules, have the design changed and fixed, and 1000 and more details. No one can build a house without a cell phone - can any service be provided without real time communications ?
Who can do this unless they spend lots of money for services and software ?
The service providers can MS.net, oracle.net, IBM.net Sun.net, AOL.net, apple.net, excite.net, go.net, yahoo.net, - plug and play just like the cell phone. For $ 50 a month your ISP becomes an interactive system to other services.
The contractor enters his phone book, calendar, and buys services from engineers, accountants, and get free services from suppliers, banks, sub contractors, etc. Those connected have a great advantage over those out of the loop.
How about a search attached to stories.

ZDNet's "Your Digital Future" represents a fascinating, almost overwhelming look into the
changes we're likely to be seeing in:
The contractor enters his phone book, calendar, and buys services from engineers, accountants, and get free services from suppliers, banks, sub contractors, etc. Those connected have a great advantage over those out of the loop.
How about a search attached to stories.
The idea of references is still useful but you can also do a up to the minute search by a hyper text link that includes the key words -

More power in a Palm Pilot than on the Apollo 10:
The accelerating rate of change forecast more change in the next century than in the last 10,000 years.
The increases in the rate of change between paradigms began at about 5000 years as ideas spread slowly - domestic animals, agriculture, metallurgy, then cities, bureaucracy and empires - then 500 years - printing, navigation, mathematics, deep mining up to the 18th century.
Then 100 years with potatoes, steam and steel, electric and chemical, communications and computers. Now in 25 years ideas are activated that used to take a century, then 12.5 years will have a century of 20th century progress, then 6.25 years what used to take a century and so forth.
The acceleration of the rate of change has been going on for a long time - it just gets faster and faster.
Therefore if Nano computer would have taken 50 years in the past it can be done in 12.5 years.
The speed of application of stem cells to build body parts, cloned cells used as normal therapies, use of immunization in treatments of ongoing virus infections and cancers, genetic engineered plants and animals as a normal accepted process, all being implemented at great speed. Even in a slow bulky industries such as cars - the fuel cell will move along more quickly than such technologies would have in the past. This really effects markets, marketing, and business planning in very fundamental ways.

- Internet technologies (the Internet's growing pervasiveness, Instant Messaging
becoming as interoperable as the Web, applications that thrive on the "new
connectivity," secure protocols, better ways to deliver high-bandwidth
content, future "agent" technology, and more) http://www.zdnet.com/pcmag/stories/reviews/0,6755,2608416,00.html

- The infrastructures that tie all this together and allow it all to work
(fiber-fiber-fiber, wireless of many different flavors, PDAs and cell phones,
radios -- from ultra wideband to software-defined, and more)
http://www.zdnet.com/pcmag/stories/reviews/0,6755,2608417,00.html
;
- Computing technologies (.18 to .13 micron chips, silicon-on-insulator, and
copper interconnects yielding 12 GHz chips by 2005! Commodity systems in 2003
that have 5 GHz processors, 10 gigabytes of memory, 300 gigabyte hard drives,
and half-gigabit/second USB. A look
into evolving chip architectures, and all of this leading to systems that "will
still be outdated within a year of purchase."
Graphics performance in 2005 will be 1.6 trillion pixels at 48 billion
polygons per second. And 1 terabyte disk drives that same year.
And more.) http://www.zdnet.com/pcmag/stories/reviews/0,6755,2608418,00.html

- The frontiers beyond (optical, molecular, DNA, and quantum computing, totally
ubiquitous computing, advanced display technologies, and the promises of carbon
nanotubes, self-organizing networks, and more.)

Windows in the cloudy sky:
What Microsoft wants to do is control the servers with a MS provided next, next generation NT platform operating system called XML but not open and universal.
The .net system works with devices that have .net codes built it. Microsoft products will run on .net as a server - client interface - XML files, XML data base, XML storage, XML index, id, calendar, updates, notifications, out in the cloud on MS XML server software doing object imbedded codes.
The applications become notations or services on the page.
The universal canvas API. Hardware drives, across all the devices and the .net controller in the a cloud. Development applications are built on the XML kits connected to the browser. This was Netscape’s vision from the beginning.. This is why MS had to kill Netscape and the NOISE group and what the browser wars was really about.
The platform is in the sky - Microsoft idea is the new version of what Netscape and SUN - the NOISE group ( Netscape, Oracle, IBM, Sun, and Everyone else ) started talking about five years ago.
The server ( web site ) company internets, the ISP, wireless devices, i-appliances, game panels, can all use audio, video, photograph, office applications - word process, presentation, spread sheets, data bases, in a interactive way using a server AGENT or personalized options given the application, the device used, and the pattern of application - on a rental or fee-for-service basics. In other words all the complex stuff is up stream - rich standards based on XML works between platforms and programs but at the server not on the PC - This is the critical and profound change.
The server in the cloud does the transfer and integration - is the platform in the sky that can work with all kinds of devices. It can take a record from one place in one format and uses it in another program in a different format guided by the smart agent. Information can be used almost anywhere from almost anywhere.
The devices can use keyboards, mouse, voice, hand writing, file transfer, clip board, as inputs as well as agent intelligence on the server and user interface.

U.S. scientists closer to making new type
of supercomputer
By Reuters
Special to CNET News.com
March 15, 2000, 1:55 p.m. PT
LONDON--U.S. scientists moved a step closer to developing a
super-computer after looking at a branch of physics that researches the
physics of particles invisible to the human eye.
"In the language of quantum information science, we have realized a
four-quantum-bit logic gate. This system is relevant for the future development of
quantum information technology," the scientists said in the journal Nature.
Conventional computers are based on binary
"switches," or bits, which can either be switched on
or off. Computers carry out calculations utilizing these
switches.
Quantum theory holds that entities such as atoms do
not decide whether they exist in an on or off state
until they are measured or interact with something.
When they are not interacting, the atoms exist in both
states at once--a quantum superposition--said
Christopher Monroe, a researcher at the National
Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
Computers based on quantum physics would
therefore be able to have switches or "qbits" that exist
in both on and off states simultaneously.
A string of these quantum bits would consequently offer every possible on-off
combination and could carry out every calculation a computer needed
simultaneously, hugely increasing the computer's power and memory.

Bell Labs is known for revolutions.
In 1947 it was the transistor. Today it is photonics. Called the second silicon revolution, optical fiber systems are in an explosive state of development, reminiscent of the earlier days of the electronics industry.
Over the past two decades, since fiber-optic communications first began to appear, the carrying capacity of fiber has increased at a faster rate than Moore's law. Now the wavelength-division multiplexing revolution has accelerated that capacity even more, while introducing the flexibility
of wavelength-based routing. Forged from an interdisciplinary mix of semiconductor diode lasers, micromachine technology and fundamental advances in optical glass technology, terahertz networking has arrived well ahead of schedule.
It's a major revolution riding on a broad-based industry serving the fundamental human need to communicate.
"A length of fiber long enough to circle the globe three times is produced every day, and if you extrapolate current trends to 2010, every one of the 6 billion people on earth will have a bandwidth capability equivalent to high-definition television," said Alistair Glass, director of photonics research and development at Lucent Technologies Bell Laboratories. Arriving at Bell Labs in 1967, Glass' career spans the development and implementation of fiber-optic communications systems.
Major breakthrough
"When I arrived, the major breakthrough was the first continuously operating laser, and it didn't run for very long-only a few minutes," Glass recalled.
"This was the time of the early hero experiments and the demands kept increasing and increasing on these devices.
There was always that pressure, but the interest in the marketplace represented a dramatic change."
There was always a strong demand to increase the performance of any device.
At first the research arm of AT&T, Bell Labs enjoyed a special status after its founding in the 1920s. Because of the monopoly granted AT&T by the government, in the interests of standardizing the telephone system, the lab could both be part of a commercial operation and play the open role of a national laboratory.
"At that time, there was not much connectivity with business- it was very much intellectually driven. We wanted to be leaders in all the fields relevant to communications," Glass said. But in the early 1980s two developments dramatically accelerated photonics research: commercial long-haul fiber-optic systems began to be installed commercially, and AT&T's monopoly was dissolved by the government, with parts of Bell Labs spun off into other companies as part of a complex divestiture of the telecommunications giant. "We were suddenly handed the mandate to develop commercial products out of our research efforts," he said.
The lab responded with a broad attack on optical communications systems. Innovations in the basic fiber, laser diodes to power them, and integrated optoelectronic components to interface with electronic data systems followed. "Since then, particularly with the founding of Lucent Technologies, optics has been accelerating at an incredible rate," Glass said.
For transporting data over long distances, fiber systems proved to be irresistible. Large bundles of copper wire could be replaced by slender silicon fibers in a process of "demassification" usually associated with the electronics industry. While the debate continues over whether optical interconnect is a viable alternative to electrical wiring inside of computers, the issue has been definitively resolved for long-distance communications. But optical interconnect inside the box may eventually succumb to a long-term trend. Recent developments in metropolitan-area networks suggest that fiber optics is riding a scaling law similar to the shrinking VLSI circuit, and the scaling rate appears to be steeper.
The rapid deployment of fiber optics received an even bigger jolt with a repeat of the '80s scenario in the 1990s. Bell Labs was again transferred in 1996 to another entity-Lucent Technologies-and made the centerpiece of a startup with considerable economic resources. Also brewing in photonics labs was a revolutionary technology called dense wavelength-division multiplexing (DWDM), which has allowed the carrying capacity of optical fiber to ramp up at an astonishing rate. "In the mid-90s it became a fever. We went from eight to 16 to 32 wavelengths on a single fiber and our latest products use 400. Now we have just demonstrated 1,000 wavelengths," Glass noted.
http://www.wiredbrain.net/dwdm.htm
DWDM uses individual segments of the optical spectrum to multiplex signals on a fiber.
The idea is recent, considered at first to be a laboratory curiosity since practical systems were already multiplexing channels with a time-division technique. Such synchronous optical networks (Sonet) had been able to extend the capacity of optical fiber and were a welcome development.
The wavelength-division multiplexing route has turned out to have far more potential: Bell Labs researchers recently demonstrated a DWDM transmission system capable of sending a terabit of data per second down a fiber. "That represents the entire world's Internet on a single glass fiber," Glass said.
The DWDM revolution has been extremely swift. When Lucent Technologies was established, DWDM was still at the laboratory demonstration stage. While the idea is simple, turning it into practical optical communications systems required a multifaceted development. Multiple-wavelength laser-diode systems and new types of fiber able to carry the multiple wavelength signals without crosstalk had to be developed. And some means of collectively amplifying multiwavelength signals had to be invented. While those problems were effectively solved in a short time, it wasn't easy. Indeed, one outstanding problem has never been solved: how to regenerate multiple wavelength signals.
Large areas
One consequence of that missing solution is the fact that DWDM can only be implemented on campus-wide or metropolitan areas. By doping fiber with the rare-earth element erbium, it is possible to build a simple light amplifier that is essentially a laser. When a multiple wavelength signal is passed through an erbium fiber loop and optically pumped, it emerges unchanged except that it is at a higher energy level. One nice aspect of this operation is that the actual content of the wavelength channels is irrelevant to the amplification process. Unfortunately, to recondition optical signals, it becomes necessary to decode their content and relaunch them. Thus signal regeneration, which is essential in long-haul networks, is still unavailable to DWDM.
Balancing this deficiency in very long transmissions is a new wave of all-optical switching elements that are able to add or remove a wavelength channel from a fiber.
These add-drop multiplexers offer a high-speed switching function that could not be duplicated with electronics, and have made metropolitan-area networks into a unique flexible, high-throughput communications medium.
This essentially new form of photonics technology is spawning an industry in optical switching components. "Now people can invent a novel device that relates to communications and it will find its way into products extremely rapidly-less than a year," said Glass. "We are now in a situation of 'invent on demand' where as soon as a problem is perceived, someone immediately comes up with a solution."
This explosive growth poses a formidable challenge to electronics technology. "If you compare the speed of silicon chips versus the capacity of optical fiber communications, fiber optics is going significantly faster than electronics, and where the fiber ends-that becomes a significant bottleneck." Glass is convinced that fiber to the home office and then fiber to the home are just around the corner. "We have a demonstration project going with Bell South where we have wired up a suburban neighborhood with little fiber-optic network units on the side of each house," he said.
Dealing with the high volumes of data that are coming off optical fibers will present a big challenge to electronics. Fortunately, wavelength-division multiplexing eases that task since each wavelength can be processed simultaneously by different circuits. Ultimately, electronics and optics technologies offer complementary abilities: "Optics is ideal for transporting data from point A to point B, but it is weak in the area of logic and switching," Glass pointed out. "That is where we will need electronics."

The world economic summit is less interesting because the big and powerful
are less interesting.
The rate of technological has multiplied on itself because computers can work faster and communications are better therefore computers and communications becomes faster and faster. My guess is that optic fiber to the door will make on-air or cable broadcasting uneconomic - video on demand will replace it - the program producers will distribute directly to the consumer - like in MP3 - the video store goes on line -
The move producer - such as Blair Witch could be sold directly - same with any show or news or whatever - so there goes networks - maybe even magazine writers with direct sales -
Wireless systems can get up to 400 kps to a million somehow - http://www.wiredbrain.net/symbian.htm for a lot of applications that is fine - and OS chip technology will make greater use of less and less with less energy and heat - more light and lighter -

If we gave you 800-kilobit packet-data service as a user, we could fit 100 voice calls into that same bandwidth,"
Japan's NTT DoCoMo doesn't have the same concern, one reason why it's not hesitating to jump into 3G. Japanese and European operators running out of bandwidth can license new spectrum for 3G; U.S. operators cannot.
Eventually, the goal is "third generation," or 3G, devices (digital cell phones were the second generation) that will deliver data rates of up to 2 Mbps. Just for comparison, current cellular-network transfer rates plod along at 9.6 Kbps or 14.4 Kbps, at best, which is OK for e-mail and some of the new Internet services being lauded by cell-phone carriers. Phone.com's (PHCM) Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) microbrowser is helping squeeze the Web into these pipes, but that's a stopgap measure.
Wireless data is hot. You can't open a magazine without reading about microbrowsers on cell phones or turn on a television without seeing an advertisement for the Internet-in-your-pocket.
Japan is blasting away, with all jets driving, toward the new wireless Internet. As far back as October 19, 1998, NTT Mobile Communications Network Inc. (NTT DoCoMo, Tokyo), Japan's leading mobile operator, piloted a cellular network that joined together the cell phone and motion video.
Expected to launch commercially in March 2001, the network and others like it will give birth to a new wireless-communications era. For NTT DoCoMo's 3 million "i-mode" cell-phone subscribers (roughly 10 percent of the company's total customer base), for example, it will mean wireless high-speed Internet news, banking, video streaming, travel reservations, Web radio, and a slew of other services.

Japan is blasting away, with all jets driving, toward the new wireless Internet. As far back as October 19, 1998, NTT Mobile Communications Network Inc. (NTT DoCoMo, Tokyo), Japan's leading mobile operator, piloted a cellular network that joined together the cell phone and motion video.
Expected to launch commercially in March 2001, the network and others like it will give birth to a new wireless-communications era. For NTT DoCoMo's 3 million "i-mode" cell-phone subscribers (roughly 10 percent of the company's total customer base), for example, it will mean wireless high-speed Internet news, banking, video streaming, travel reservations, Web radio, and a slew of other services.

Cable is too slow and greedy.
The telephone companies too slow and bureaucratic. Both have shown a preference for short term gains rather than long term survival. Microsoft is showing the same brain arthritis - inflexible - such as IBM was - GM and other big and rich - missed every important technology - but could buy it after it had been proven. That may or may not be possible. .

The most common wireless transmission standard, GSM, which stands for
Global Systems for Mobile communications, is particularly prevalent in
Europe and Asia. According to market research firm Dataquest, nearly 157
million GSM-based mobile phones will be shipped worldwide this year,
compared with shipments of about 43 million CDMA cell phones.
But many industry observers say CDMA, strongest in North America, is more
efficient and can handle Internet-based transmissions better.
There is also time division and dense systems - I do believe the key is China - the PLA and post telegraph - along with the EU will set the standards.

There is optic to the door provided by the utility company. It is a common carrier
providing:
TV programs on demand on a big flat screen digital high definition system -
programs are recorded and played as you desire, when you desire on any of the
screens around the wired house you desire.
There is no need for program schedules
- movies and other video content are downloaded on demand from world wide
services. Some charge fees some are free with or without ads. You can watch the
BBC news or CNN or C-span type programs any time.
There is no need for movie
or music channels since you can order anything you want anytime.
The same with music, either rented for a limited number of replays, or purchased and
transferred to CD or DVD -
The same with interactive media - games and
educational services for the wired " smart" house - When you leave the security
system goes on - with complete radar monitoring of any motion with recording of
motion, the heat or AC is turned down, when you click from your cell phone that
you are returning home - the lights and heat or AC is reset, the music turned on and
the doors unsecured.
The cell phone - palm pilot - personal digital assistant works at 400 kbps to 4 Mbs
with GPS, e-mail and other web content, fold up or screen keyboards, long life
batteries, high gain reception of dense multiplex time division wideband GS3 codes.
Europe, with its common GSM standard, will likely usher in "3G" technologies (with their 2 megabit/second
data to pockets) years before it happens in the U.S.' fragmented cellular environment. And fast wireless data
will surely usher in many new Opportunities. -

The home terminal - NEXUM - provides wireless ( bluetooth ) connection to the
mobile elements, TV, music, games, information systems with voice commands. You
say " Write a note" and dictate as it appears on the big screen. You correct with the
portable keyboard that is used for interactive TV.
The master computer works
within a network "master server in the sky" to provide services you need or enjoy.
Shopping, banking, tele-communities, video conferences, design and research,
games and social activities, travel and adventure, and tuned to your interests and
desires.
The master server bills for usage in micro pennies for "extras" but charges a
flat fee for "basic services". Several master server companies compete for services
on the common carrier -
The services are not tied to the wire - optic cable - so there are two bills - one for
connection services - the wireless and wired ( optic ) and another from the service
company that passes along charges for rentals, fee for service charges, software
licenses, communications on and off net, as we do today with local and long distance
phone services and premium cable services.
Where is the money made ? Optic fiber hardware - mobile hardware, utility
company right-of-way and network services, the "general utility service company"
maybe AOL, Microsoft, NOISE group ( Netscape, Oracle, IBM, Sun
Microsystems and everyone else ) Amazon, or others which provides the interface
between the user and service providers - banks, insurance, finance and markets,
shopping, software and music and games and movies and communications, and
entertainment, security, smart home management, and on and on...

But many industry observers say CDMA, strongest in North America, is more
efficient and can handle Internet-based transmissions better.
There is also time division and dense systems - I do believe the key is China - the PLA and post telegraph - along with the EU will set the standards.

So Where is the Wireless Web?
by Dee McVicker
February 11, 2000
Network operations are currently divided into three technology families, code division multiple access (CDMA), time division multiple access (TDMA), and global system for mobile communication (GSM).
http://www.wiredbrain.net/symbian.htm
If we gave you 800-kilobit packet-data service as a user, we could fit 100 voice calls into that same bandwidth,"
Japan's NTT DoCoMo doesn't have the same concern, one reason why it's not hesitating to jump into 3G. Japanese and European operators running out of bandwidth can license new spectrum for 3G; U.S. operators cannot.
Eventually, the goal is "third generation," or 3G, devices (digital cell phones were the second generation) that will deliver data rates of up to 2 Mbps. Just for comparison, current cellular-network transfer rates plod along at 9.6 Kbps or 14.4 Kbps, at best, which is OK for e-mail and some of the new Internet services being lauded by cell-phone carriers. Phone.com's (PHCM) Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) microbrowser is helping squeeze the Web into these pipes, but that's a stopgap measure.
Wireless data is hot. You can't open a magazine without reading about microbrowsers on cell phones or turn on a television without seeing an advertisement for the Internet-in-your-pocket.
Japan is blasting away, with all jets driving, toward the new wireless Internet. As far back as October 19, 1998, NTT Mobile Communications Network Inc. (NTT DoCoMo, Tokyo), Japan's leading mobile operator, piloted a cellular network that joined together the cell phone and motion video.
Expected to launch commercially in March 2001, the network and others like it will give birth to a new wireless-communications era. For NTT DoCoMo's 3 million "i-mode" cell-phone subscribers (roughly 10 percent of the company's total customer base), for example, it will mean wireless high-speed Internet news, banking, video streaming, travel reservations, Web radio, and a slew of other services.

So Where is the Wireless Web?
So Where is the Wireless Web?
Network operations are currently divided into three technology families, code division multiple access (CDMA), time division multiple access (TDMA), and global system for mobile communication (GSM).
http://www.wiredbrain.net/symbian.htm
If we gave you 800-kilobit packet-data service as a user, we could fit 100 voice calls into that same bandwidth,"
Japan's NTT DoCoMo doesn't have the same concern, one reason why it's not hesitating to jump into 3G. Japanese and European operators running out of bandwidth can license new spectrum for 3G; U.S. operators cannot.
Eventually, the goal is "third generation," or 3G, devices (digital cell phones were the second generation) that will deliver data rates of up to 2 Mbps. Just for comparison, current cellular-network transfer rates plod along at 9.6 Kbps or 14.4 Kbps, at best, which is OK for e-mail and some of the new Internet services being lauded by cell-phone carriers. Phone.com's (PHCM) Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) microbrowser is helping squeeze the Web into these pipes, but that's a stopgap measure.
Wireless data is hot. You can't open a magazine without reading about microbrowsers on cell phones or turn on a television without seeing an advertisement for the Internet-in-your-pocket.
Japan is blasting away, with all jets driving, toward the new wireless Internet. As far back as October 19, 1998, NTT Mobile Communications Network Inc. (NTT DoCoMo, Tokyo), Japan's leading mobile operator, piloted a cellular network that joined together the cell phone and motion video.
Expected to launch commercially in March 2001, the network and others like it will give birth to a new wireless-communications era. For NTT DoCoMo's 3 million "i-mode" cell-phone subscribers (roughly 10 percent of the company's total customer base), for example, it will mean wireless high-speed Internet news, banking, video streaming, travel reservations, Web radio, and a slew of other services.

The following image need to be firmly in mind to understand the AOL/ Time

industries.
The time frame is about 10 years - the impact comes first in

There is optic to the door provided by the utility company. It is a common carrier
providing:
TV programs on demand on a big flat screen digital high definition system -
programs are recorded and played as you desire, when you desire on any of the
screens around the wired house you desire.
There is no need for program schedules
- movies and other video content are downloaded on demand from world wide
services. Some charge fees some are free with or without ads. You can watch the
BBC news or CNN or C-span type programs any time.
There is no need for movie
or music channels since you can order anything you want anytime.
The same with music, either rented for a limited number of replays, or purchased and
transferred to CD or DVD -
The same with interactive media - games and
educational services for the wired " smart" house - When you leave the security
system goes on - with complete radar monitoring of any motion with recording of
motion, the heat or AC is turned down, when you click from your cell phone that
you are returning home - the lights and heat or AC is reset, the music turned on and
the doors unsecured.
The cell phone - palm pilot - personal digital assistant works at 400 kbps to 4 Mbs
with GPS, e-mail and other web content, fold up or screen keyboards, long life
batteries, high gain reception of dense multiplex time division wideband GS3 codes.
Europe, with its common GSM standard, will likely usher in "3G" technologies (with their 2 megabit/second
data to pockets) years before it happens in the U.S.' fragmented cellular environment. And fast wireless data
will surely usher in many new Opportunities. -

The home terminal - NEXUM - provides wireless ( bluetooth ) connection to the
mobile elements, TV, music, games, information systems with voice commands. You
say " Write a note" and dictate as it appears on the big screen. You correct with the
portable keyboard that is used for interactive TV.
The master computer works
within a network "master server in the sky" to provide services you need or enjoy.
Shopping, banking, tele-communities, video conferences, design and research,
games and social activities, travel and adventure, and tuned to your interests and
desires.
The master server bills for usage in micro pennies for "extras" but charges a
flat fee for "basic services". Several master server companies compete for services
on the common carrier -
The services are not tied to the wire - optic cable - so there are two bills - one for
connection services - the wireless and wired ( optic ) and another from the service

Broadband Race Is on the Rise in Hong Kong
Last week, the Hong Kong government took another step to open further the telecom market to competition by issuing a total of 17 fixed network licenses (5 licenses for wireless local fixed telecommunications network services (FTNS), and another 12 licenses for external FTNS using satellites).
The licenses will last for 15 years, with an option to extend for another 15 years. In addition, the government has agreed to issue an FTNS license to Hong Kong Cable TV to provide telecom services over its hybrid fiber-coaxial cable networks.

The battle of the air waves is just not between cable modems ( which don't work
very well ) and DSL which has many problems and is priced too high. Optic fiber to
the door and new wideband line of sight or some technology using power lines may
jump ahead. It's a tough call to invest billions per day.
The dense urban markets, the rural markets, the issues in China and other world markets, all may not have the
same solution. Satellite systems have a role, but it seems the analysis is too tightly drawn in the box - there are sure to be out of the box answers.
``Wireless Internet devices will not only capture some existing PC applications but
introduce brand new applications that the desk-top PC has no way to handle today,''
Engibous told a Tokyo seminar on the company's strategy.
``I think the availability of a wireless device that is online all the time with broadband data capability...offers the possibility of applications that Silicon Valley'' is just beginning to dream about, he added.
With next-generation mobile phone services, users will be able to surf the Web,
check and respond to e-mail, conduct videoconferences and use new mobile
services such as e-commerce, he said.
Next-generation mobile phone services will be offered in Japan beginning in the
spring of 2001, and later in other parts of the world.

Broadband in the Local Loop 98:
Cable Modem Madness vs. xDSL Dementia
http://www.fwdconcepts.com/brdbnd98.htm
New Study Concludes G.lite not enough to overcome advantages
and head start of cable modems
http://www.fwdconcepts.com/press13.htm
According to the study, cable modems will win the lion's share of the residential
broadband market, outnumbering DSL modems 5:1 in North American and 2.6:1
worldwide by the year 2003.
The five-year growth rate for cable modems is
forecast to be 93% in North America and 114% in other regions.
The Study concludes that the rollout plans announced by the telcos are unrealistically
optimistic, that the services are too high-priced for the mainstream residential
market, and face many technical and regulatory hurdles--oft overlooked in the
excitement of bringing in a new age of high speed IP-based telecommunications.
Forward Concepts also believes that splitterless DSL still has many technical
unknowns, and that its suitability as a "universal" service is still open to question.
DSL services also jeopardize existing, highly profitable, data communications
services, further reducing motivation for rollout by the telcos.
The cable companies,
in contrast, see IP-video, IP telephony, Internet access, and remote LAN access as
pure incremental upside revenue opportunities, unencumbered by existing services.

Broadband in the Local Loop 98:
Cable Modem Madness vs. xDSL Dementia
http://www.fwdconcepts.com/brdbnd98.htm
New Study Concludes G.lite not enough to overcome advantages
and head start of cable modems
http://www.fwdconcepts.com/press13.htm
According to the study, cable modems will win the lion's share of the residential
broadband market, outnumbering DSL modems 5:1 in North American and 2.6:1
worldwide by the year 2003.
The five-year growth rate for cable modems is
forecast to be 93% in North America and 114% in other regions.
The Study concludes that the rollout plans announced by the telcos are unrealistically
optimistic, that the services are too high-priced for the mainstream residential
market, and face many technical and regulatory hurdles--oft overlooked in the
excitement of bringing in a new age of high speed IP-based telecommunications.
Forward Concepts also believes that splitterless DSL still has many technical
unknowns, and that its suitability as a "universal" service is still open to question.
DSL services also jeopardize existing, highly profitable, data communications
services, further reducing motivation for rollout by the telcos.
The cable companies,
in contrast, see IP-video, IP telephony, Internet access, and remote LAN access as
pure incremental upside revenue opportunities, unencumbered by existing services.

Broadband Race Is on the Rise in Hong Kong
Last week, the Hong Kong government took another step to open further the telecom market to competition by issuing a total of 17 fixed network licenses (5 licenses for wireless local fixed telecommunications network services (FTNS), and another 12 licenses for external FTNS using satellites).
The licenses will last for 15 years, with an option to extend for another 15 years. In addition, the government has agreed to issue an FTNS license to Hong Kong Cable TV to provide telecom services over its hybrid fiber-coaxial cable networks.

The battle of the air waves is just not between cable modems ( which don't work
very well ) and DSL which has many problems and is priced too high. Optic fiber to
the door and new wideband line of sight or some technology using power lines may
jump ahead. It's a tough call to invest billions per day.
The dense urban markets, the rural markets, the issues in China and other world markets, all may not have the
same solution. Satellite systems have a role, but it seems the analysis is too tightly drawn in the box - there are sure to be out of the box answers.

Broadband in the Local Loop 98:
Cable Modem Madness vs. xDSL Dementia
http://www.fwdconcepts.com/brdbnd98.htm
New Study Concludes G.lite not enough to overcome advantages
and head start of cable modems
http://www.fwdconcepts.com/press13.htm
According to the study, cable modems will win the lion's share of the residential
broadband market, outnumbering DSL modems 5:1 in North American and 2.6:1
worldwide by the year 2003.
The five-year growth rate for cable modems is
forecast to be 93% in North America and 114% in other regions.
The Study concludes that the rollout plans announced by the telcos are unrealistically
optimistic, that the services are too high-priced for the mainstream residential
market, and face many technical and regulatory hurdles--oft overlooked in the
excitement of bringing in a new age of high speed IP-based telecommunications.
Forward Concepts also believes that splitterless DSL still has many technical
unknowns, and that its suitability as a "universal" service is still open to question.
DSL services also jeopardize existing, highly profitable, data communications
services, further reducing motivation for rollout by the telcos.
The cable companies,
in contrast, see IP-video, IP telephony, Internet access, and remote LAN access as
pure incremental upside revenue opportunities, unencumbered by existing services.

Being in two places at the same time - or going from here to there without
passing through the space between.
A short introduction to quantum computation
Max PLANCK and Heisenberg, and Erwin SCHRÖDINGER's wave mechanics,
and Born, are the people of the 20th century who will most influence the
21 st. We will see the application of quantum computer fairly soon. It
could ( so will ) have some level of self awareness we call consciousness
http://www.qubit.org/intros/comp/comp.html
The nature of matter at this level is
little energy spots rather than matter as we experience it, energy that
change quantum states - transform from one state to another instantly.
"
The history of computer technology has involved a sequence of changes
from one type of physical realization to another --- from gears to relays
to valves to transistors to integrated circuits and so on ...
On the atomic scale matter obeys the rules of quantum mechanics,
which are quite different from the classical rules that determine the properties
of conventional logic gates. So if computers are to become smaller in the
future, new, quantum technology must replace or supplement what we have
now.
The point is, however, that quantum technology can offer much more
than cramming more and more bits to silicon and multiplying the clock-speed
of microprocessors. It can support entirely new kind of computation with
qualitatively new algorithms based on quantum principles!
Three basic categories of elementary particles were ultimately distinguished:
leptons, quarks, and bosons. Leptons and quarks are FERMIONS, the basic
constituents of nuclear and atomic structure, or MATTER; BOSONS are the
particles that transmit the fundamental FORCES of nature between fermions.
The smallest class of elementary particles is that of the massless bosons,
which comprises the PHOTON, gluon, W AND Z PARTICLES, and the hypothetical
graviton.
The lepton class contains twelve particles: the electron, muon,
tauon, and their antiparticles, and the neutrino or antineutrino associated
with each.
The QUARKS, the third class, also number twelve: the whimsically
named up, down, charm, strange, top (or truth), and bottom (or beauty)
quarks and their antiparticles. Quarks are always found in pairs or triplets
with other quarks or antiquarks to form particles called hadrons.
In the begining there was the big bang.
Then all was
dark for awhile.
The force of gravaty produced matter and stars and light.
Most of the stuff remained dark with antimatter and antigravity.
The mind
of the universe moves from simple to complex, in a pattern of relationships
too complex to happen purely by chance.
The system desired to become aware
of itself or there would be no point in the exercise.
Elementary particles interact with one another through the four fundamental
forces: GRAVITATION, electromagnetism, WEAK INTERACTION, and STRONG INTERACTION.
Gravitation is experienced by all particles of known matter and anti-gravidy
created the asymmetrical forces that created the universe, electromagnetism
is experienced only by charged particles, such as the electron, proton,
and muon. Hadrons and leptons, including the electron, muon, and the neutrinos,
participate in the weak interaction associated with particle decay.
The
strong interaction is responsible for the structure of the atomic nucleus,
and only hadrons participate in it.

it's a great site -
how about quantum computing
Borders, periphery, frontiers:
The very small ( nano ) works by most extraordinary rules - objects have properties that allow them to move from here to there without going through the intermediate space. Time is not linear and space bends. Objects themselves appear, take on properties, and then change their character and reappears in a different form.
At the atomic and molecular level the connections can be open and creative rather than mechanical and determined. Uncertainty is a fundamental prerequisite of creativity and life itself.
A really clever computer working with uncertainly could work at this level and have some sort of consciousness. This would be an interesting invention of this century.

It's a problem crying out for a solution. And it's not hard to imagine one: What if I told you that I could provide you with a solid-state device a quarter of the size of a PC that had no moving parts to break? You could run 50 software titles such as Word, WordPerfect, Lotus SmartSuite, Quattro Pro and Quicken, as well as games. You would never have to upgrade those applications because they would be upgraded for you. With this device, you could watch more than 175 cable channels and select from thousands of movie titles that you could watch either on the machine or on the TV in your living room.
This device would have a hard drive so large that you
could never fill it up. And you never would have to back up files again
because they would be backed up for you every night. If lightning hit this
device while you were using it out by the pool, you might lose some hair
and skin, but you wouldn't lose data—and I could overnight you another
machine.
There would be no problems with an operating system, hardware
drivers or other software. You would simply plug it into your cable box,
and you're ready to go.
Services for the masses
Instead of buying a PC, you would pay the company a monthly fee, and the company would send you a Winterm device that plugs into your new high-bandwidth Internet connection, which links to its service. After powering it on, you would simply hit "connect" and your personalized GUI desktop would pop up on the screen. You could instantly run hundreds of applications without installing anything. Any time you saved files, they'd actually be saved to a server's hard drives, which would be backed up every night. Combine these services with an e-mail account, and watch PC sales plummet. After all, who would want to buy a PC with software that had to be upgraded every year, if you could hire a service to take care of the mess? Many corporations, tired of the cost and IS staff required to manage hundreds of PCs, would jump on it.
The technology to build a virtual PC service is here
today. Other technologies, such as movies on demand, are probably a few
years out.
The advent of virtual computing will shift the entire PC infrastructure
with such momentum that the PC as we know it today will be used only by
a group of oddballs: "computer" people.

What is GS3 ( Global System 3 ) for MS that Bill is going to do 100 % of the time ? - first there was the
mainframe and IBM - then the PC and MS - now the nexum - with MS-2 a marketing and communications
empire??
The keys are both the hand held portable GMS and the home appliance - the universal
communications device that runs as a terminal - software ( by MS ) and OS by MS - to provide operations on a
rental or fixed fee for service system - It owns the pipe - it owns the birds - it owns the OS - but provides
content and services for all ( Bill's idea of open systems ) This is where AOL should have been going rather than
content which is begging for distribution. Content must have eyeballs - but the owner of the pipe and OS is
KING !

McCaw and Bill still think with Teledesic, ICO Global, Nextel Nextlink etc. and create a last mile system build
on optic fiber with a wireless last mile - Time division hardware is out there -
I should mention the NEXUM (
http://www.wiredbrain.net/nexum.htm )
The idea is simple but the roll out
complex because of billions in hardware. A high capacity satellite link to optic fiber - to wireless for the last mile
- data ( high speed internet and VPN ) video and telephone i.e. voice
Why isn't AOL in this kind of deal rather than Warner and cable ? McCaw knows cable and believes it will be
by passed ? This is the battle of the century - the new war of the AirWaves - (
The last was between Armstrong
and RCA - Sarnoff about Radio and FM see
http://www.wiredbrain.net/disintermediation.htm) A superheterodyne circuit developed by U.S. Army Signal Corps major Edwin Howard
Armstrong, 26, became the basic design for all amplitude modulation (AM) radios. It
greatly increases the selectivity and sensitivity of radio receivers over a wide band of frequencies (see 1906; FM, 1933). Radio Corp. of America (RCA) was founded by Owen D. Young (see 1919) who loans Ernst Alexanderson to RCA which will employ him as chief engineer for 5 years (see 1906). RCA acquired the Victor Co. and become a
radio-phonograph colossus but anti-trust court actions will separate RCA from GE (see
VICTROLA, 1906; NBC, 1926). David Sarnoff urges marketing of a simple "radio music
box."
The American Marconi Co. says his plan will make the radio "a ‘household
utility’ in the same sense as the piano or phonograph" (see 1912; 1920).
In order to sell the system - the NEXUM a universal communications device which works on line all the time -
dial tone connections - with video and hot internet you first go after the corporate market - CONCENTRIC
with optic fiber, T1 and DSL lines then the small business user and set up a big private network.
Then you roll
out the same high speed service for domestic users in some markets -
I am looking into it - thanks - the AOL Warner raises issuers of cable access.
Someone must know something so that cable can be used on a wide scale - AOL knows all too well that the
future of low speed mass market for their
service is very limited. I believe in wireless - optic broadband doing the last
mile via some kind of microwave radar -
The issue is China -
The PLA and post telegraph have hundred of millions of new users and can't string wires -
but can run a optic fiber backbone with radio towers CDM code or time division multiplex - either only needs a
little push to get there. What about Direct TV downlink and DSL up - these are the BIG issues. Who
controls the rules and protocols controls a lot.

Current instruction is gray and flat - it needs to
be colorful and round. Instruction is slow, knowledge is cut into fragments
and reassembled, creative participation is discouraged at all levels.
The
iron law of bureaucracy operates freely in almost all schools.
Students in rows reviewing text books under the control
of an instructor is clearly colorless and flat. Every once in awhile there
is a little burst of color or a dark pit but the surface is mostly two
dimensional and the colors are black and white.
There are several clear themes as we move from two dimensions
to many:
1. ) Knowledge is not only transferred but invented
a lot of learning takes place in the process of invention
2.)
The organizing themes are tasks not subjects ,
Knowledge is organized around functions not disciplines
3.) there is creative interaction between teachers
and learners and less distinctions between actors and classes.
The word is convergence
- Technology, communications, human organization, marketing, finance, and
further explorations of the future rushing in upon us.
The NEXUM project:
http://www.wiredbrain.net/symbian.htm
A clear image:
Since the Fallow’s article almost 10 years ago http://www.wiredbrain.net/documents/logos/fallow01.txt
and fallow.txt I have a changing image of the communications in the age
of technology. I have believed the free market would produce was rational,
logical, technologically economic communications system which looked like
this:
A receiver dish on your desk or outside on the wall
of your house and office broadcasts and receives digital signals from a
transmitters in the neighborhood ( up to 30 miles away - line of sight
or maybe not ). This single connection would provide really high speed
broadband - gigs per second - cable, telephone, Internet ( converged with
TV and phone ).
The big business will be service providers doing all the
hard stuff ( software ) up line. You IP number would connect you to the
world and the world to you where ever on what ever. Your domain name would
replace phone numbers, and all the other ID problems with transactions
in electric money as the device knows who you are ( thumb print, retina
read ).
If you wanted to write a letter - using voice recognition
from your cell phone to your NEXUM ( PC network device ) and e-mail it
or print it ( using Bluetooth ) or any financial, business, personal transaction
it would fly through the air from where-ever to where-ever.
The 100’s of millions of new connections in China and
the rest of the world without wires would use the same broadband wireless
system.
The phone companies, cable companies, broadcast companies, cell
phones, and computer hardware and software would all be in the IT communications
business. It is happening - http://www.wiredbrain.net/NEXUM.htm and http://www.wiredbrain.net/symbian.htm
The billion people on the Internet we talked about
a couple of years ago ( http://www.wiredbrain.net/packets.htm are almost
here.
The Internet as the links to phones, it is here now.
The TV Internet
connection is here @home and @work. What has not as been created is bandwidth
and the NC ( NEXUM ) but they are just over the horizon, looking More and
more like the playstation II and in the $ 350 range or comes with the $
50 monthly user fees including long distance, cable channels picked off
Satellites, Internet - Video user interface etc.
Sure people will use DSL ( fairly high speed phone
on copper ) people will use two way cable, some people and business will
use direct satellite or be on optic fiber, ( people still ride horses,
use wagons, sail boats, and walk but cars and planes have most of the transport
business ) BUT VOFDM, MMDS will replace most of these wired links by wireless,
better, freer more competitive services. I can’t track down the low power
radar (MIR) time division wideband line of sight transmitter and receivers
but it is being used by the military and seems to have no limits. Optic
fiber switches are in production to handle to backbone and local nodes.
The cost of communications content is dropping faster
than hardware - more that twice as much at half the cost every 18 months
by an order of magnitude ( 10 times more capacity for 1/10th as much cost
) ( Moore’s Law 10 X )
The design of the general communications and computing
device.
Design teams of teachers ( from around the world ) and
students from anywhere working on the interface of communications technology,
processing capacity, storage and data transfer compression, marketing,
finance, human machine interface ( ergonomics http://www.wiredbrain.net/ergonomics.htm
) because the specialist now has to consider bandwidth, chip capacities,
applications, service systems, distribution systems, content and market
demand factors all in one organized package.
Management, information technology, marketing, human
resources and production need to work together. Traditional products such
as automobiles and space rockets and atomic ships has advanced some in
design integration but computers still have a way to go - the
NEXT
must leap frog current compartment thinking into
new dimensions of systems analysis.
How is systems analysis different
from what has been used in the last 40 years.
It is more colorful and has more dimensions.
It becomes much more complex where there are many clients,
with many applications, using different languages and protocols. A great
server should ask and how do we establish an interface, what language do
you use, what program do you want, what operating system does it use, and
can I remember all this the next time we make contact ?
Amazon.com has shown the way within one set of protocols
of how to be client centric. Every store both e and non-e, should be able
to track several open ended data bases - inventory, catalog, store, client,
sales person, so as to show what exists and who is buying it. Wal-mart
and Builders Square, Office supply and Sears should have a the catalog
and inventory on line at the cash registrar and on-line for the buyers
with items, pictures, prices as well as complete lists of any clients or
sales person’s recorded sales. It world make it a lot easier for contractors
or anyone buying many different items.
A friendly server would connect such data bases to
user applications such as financial records and market research. Can any
client using different tools access open records for different purposes,
in different languages ? Can suppliers or comparative shoppers or programs
that search for best buys ? How would the Nexum, a simple communications
device, use server software to find the best buy ? Who do you compare features
? Models, grades, standards, ? All kinds of applications not invented need
to glide easily into existing systems.
The invention of credit, degrees, payment systems is easy
Color is better than black and white. Three dimensions
is better than two. Round in better than flat. Current instruction is gray
and flat - it needs to be colorful and round. Students in rows reviewing
text books under the control of an instructor is clearly colorless and
flat. Every once in awhile there is a little burst of color or a dark pit
but the surface is mostly two dimensional and the colors are black and
white.

Keywords
weirdbrain
' (wîrd) adj., weird·er, weird·est. Of, relating to,
or suggestive of the preternatural or supernatural. Of a strikingly odd
or unusual character; strange. Archaic. Of or relating to fate or the Fates.
n.
Fate; destiny.
One's assigned lot or fortune, especially when evil. Often Weird. Greek
Mythology. Roman Mythology. One of the Fates. weird'ly adv. weird'ness
n. SYNONYMS: weird, eerie, uncanny, unearthly.
These adjectives refer to
what is of a mysteriously strange, usually frightening nature. Weird may
suggest the operation of supernatural influences, but it may also be applied
to what is merely odd or unusual: “
The person of the house gave a weird
little laugh” (Charles Dickens). “
There is a weird power in a spoken word”
(Joseph Conrad). Something eerie inspires inexplicable fear or uneasiness
that seems to result from a sinister influence: “At nightfall on the marshes,
the thing was eerie and fantastic to behold” (Robert Louis Stevenson).
Uncanny refers to what is unnatural and peculiarly unsettling: “
The queer
stumps . . . had uncanny shapes, as of monstrous creatures, whose eyes
seemed to peer out at you” (John Galsworthy). Something unearthly seems
so strange and unnatural as to come from or belong to another world: “He
could hear the unearthly scream of some curlew piercing the din” (Henry
Kingsley).

Since
the late 1880s, when wireless communications were first demonstrated, all
practical uses of radio have relied on the transmission of continuous sine
waves.
The modulation of those sine waves allows the transmission and reception
of information in either amplitude (AM radio) or frequency (FM radio).
From 1890 to the present, industry has searched relentlessly for ways to
send more information more reliably. Radio researchers have evolved techniques
such as CDMA, TDMA, etc.
Introduction to CDMA
http://www.time-domain.com/technology.htmlNow,
the entire wireless landscape has changed. Larry Fullerton discovered that
single RF monocycles could be transmitted through an antenna, and by precisely
positioning these monocycles in time and then using a matched receiver
to recover the transmissions, a whole new wireless medium was created,
'Digital Pulse Wireless' - a medium that does not rely on sine waves, does
not require an assigned frequency, does not need a power amplifier, and
is so random and low powered that it is indistinguishable from noise.
The
medium does require precise pulse placement in time (pulses are positioned
with an accuracy of trillionths of a second), and it also requires a coherent
correlating receiver - a Fullerton correlator. Larry Fullerton developed
and patented the technology over the last decade.
http://lasers.llnl.gov/lasers/idp/mir/files/MIR_info.html
The technology based on pulse-echo radar, discovered around the turn of
the century. Such radar leverages the speed of light as an integral component
of its operation, measuring the echo that results when a pulse strikes
an object to determine that object's distance from the pulse source.
Conventional
radar systems transmit several thousand such pulses per second. MIR, by
contrast, sends out over 1 million.
"In
the past, people used radio waves, but nobody cared how fast they were
going," McEwan said. "Now the consumer can use devices that actually clock
the speed of light in the form of microwave propagation, allowing them
to do things that they could never do before."
http://www.eet.com/news/97/937news/sensorapps.html
As
I understand IT , a new type of technology using Time Synchronization Systems
Through DCF77 or GPS signal and using a 10,000 MHTZ chip can transmit MEGA-BITS
the last mile. In synergy with solid state atomic level MEMORY TECHNOLOGY
data moves from FROM MEGA-BIT TO GIGA-BIT per second. High Speed processors
adapted from TERCOM - terrain contour matching 10,000 MHz chip used
in the cruise missile terrain following "smart bombs" or using guided radio
waves or laser beam targeting based on rapid image recognition.

NEW
DEVELOPMENTS IN STORAGEAccording to CMR (
http://www.cmruk.com/cmrinventions.html ), Professor Ted Williams and
his team are able to store 86 gigabytes per square centimeter, and to read
and write this data at 100 megabits/second. While few details are available
while their patents are pending, CMR does indicate that the process, funded
in part by the UK Department of Trade and Industry, exploits a new family

a different operating approach."
The
news tracker connection then runs everything
.
The Star Office 5.1
is a good example. It runs on open platforms and can be updated, reconfigured
to include sound and video telephones, and doesn't need to be completely
installed on every terminal but can run off the system network.
In
doing web pages, Netscape Composer, MS FrontPage, and Star Office use different
forms of code, HTTP ( hypertext ) different Java scripts, and can mess
each other and the author up. Now since they ( Netscape ( AOL ) and
Sun - part of the NOISE group, Netscape, Oracle, IBM, Sun and everyone
else - ) are enemies they may intend to screw each other with the author
in the middle.
How
about http://www.wiredbrain.net/battle.wav
and
too many other changes that work here but not there - audio plug-ins, ActiveX,
virtual machines, XML, etc. Etc..
This
is why the complex stuff has to be up-stream on the server if the communications
systems can communicate with each other.
The system knows where you
are (GPS), who you are ( IP) and what you are ( kind of device you are
using ) and what you want - voice, e-mail, conference, word processor,
accounts, pay a bill, collect a bill etc.
The
standards have to be set by SOMEONE - it can’t be done by a voluntary committee
as in the good old non commercial days when the DOD and NSF controlled
the net. It can’t be done by government ( too slow ) IT has to be global
- the EU and Asia are involved - sometimes well ahead.
The WWW system standard
was set at CERN - and the UN or a global trade or international postal
telecommunications agreement could set up a fast working body the approve
PROTOCALS. Now MS does the global job but is clearly not neutral or trustworthy,
since it is worth a good share of the almost trillion dollars in systems
sales.

The Batle of the Air waves
What is GS3 ( Global System 3 ) for MS that Bill is going to do 100 % of the time ? - first there was the
mainframe and IBM - then the PC and MS - now the nexum - with MS-2 a marketing and communications
empire??
The keys are both the hand held portable GMS and the home appliance - the universal
communications device that runs as a terminal - software ( by MS ) and OS by MS - to provide operations on a
rental or fixed fee for service system - It owns the pipe - it owns the birds - it owns the OS - but provides
content and services for all ( Bill's idea of open systems ) This is where AOL should have been going rather than
content which is begging for distribution. Content must have eyeballs - but the owner of the pipe and OS is
KING !
In 1997 LMDS Local Multipoint
Distribution Service -- has become the Manhattan Project of the
telecommunications industry.
http://www.zdnet.com/intweek/print/970908/inwk0002.html
But then what happened - several companies pay top dollar for the new 28-gigahertz broadband connection -
several went bankrupt
NOW
http://www4.zdnet.com:80/intweek/stories/news/0,4164,2419875,00.html
McCaw and Bill still think with Teledesic, ICO Global, Nextel Nextlink etc. and create a last mile system build
on optic fiber with a wireless last mile - Time division hardware is out there -
I should mention the NEXUM (
http://www.wiredbrain.net/nexum.htm )
The idea is simple but the roll out
complex because of billions in hardware. A high capacity satellite link to optic fiber - to wireless for the last mile
- data ( high speed internet and VPN ) video and telephone i.e. voice
Why isn't AOL in this kind of deal rather than Warner and cable ? McCaw knows cable and believes it will be
by passed ? This is the battle of the century - the new war of the AirWaves - (
The last was between Armstrong
and RCA - Sarnoff about Radio and FM see
http://www.wiredbrain.net/disintermediation.htm) A superheterodyne circuit developed by U.S. Army Signal Corps major Edwin Howard
Armstrong, 26, became the basic design for all amplitude modulation (AM) radios. It
greatly increases the selectivity and sensitivity of radio receivers over a wide band of frequencies (see 1906; FM, 1933). Radio Corp. of America (RCA) was founded by Owen D. Young (see 1919) who loans Ernst Alexanderson to RCA which will employ him as chief engineer for 5 years (see 1906). RCA acquired the Victor Co. and become a
radio-phonograph colossus but anti-trust court actions will separate RCA from GE (see
VICTROLA, 1906; NBC, 1926). David Sarnoff urges marketing of a simple "radio music
box."
The American Marconi Co. says his plan will make the radio "a ‘household
utility’ in the same sense as the piano or phonograph" (see 1912; 1920).
In order to sell the system - the NEXUM a universal communications device which works on line all the time -
dial tone connections - with video and hot internet you first go after the corporate market - CONCENTRIC
with optic fiber, T1 and DSL lines then the small business user and set up a big private network.
Then you roll
out the same high speed service for domestic users in some markets -
I am looking into it - thanks - the AOL Warner raises issuers of cable access.
Someone must know something so that cable can be used on a wide scale - AOL knows all too well that the
future of low speed mass market for their
service is very limited. I believe in wireless - optic broadband doing the last
mile via some kind of microwave radar -
The issue is China -
The PLA and post telegraph have hundred of millions of new users and can't string wires -
but can run a optic fiber backbone with radio towers CDM code or time division multiplex - either only needs a
little push to get there. What about Direct TV downlink and DSL up - these are the BIG issues. Who
controls the rules and protocols controls a lot.

The
new school
What could an relevant on-line school be like.
-
Color is better than black and white.
-
Three dimensions is better than two.
-
Round is better than flat.
-
Fast is more successful than slow.
Civilization progresses with greater literacy,
greater attention to the laws of man and nature, and greater freedom of
participation.
Current instruction is gray and flat - it needs to
be colorful and round. Instruction is slow, knowledge is cut into fragments
and reassembled, creative participation is discouraged at all levels.
The
iron law of bureaucracy operates freely in almost all schools.
Students in rows reviewing text books under the control
of an instructor is clearly colorless and flat. Every once in awhile there
is a little burst of color or a dark pit but the surface is mostly two
dimensional and the colors are black and white.
There are several clear themes as we move from two dimensions
to many:
1. ) Knowledge is not only transferred but invented
a lot of learning takes place in the process of invention
2.)
The organizing themes are tasks not subjects ,
Knowledge is organized around functions not disciplines
3.) there is creative interaction between teachers
and learners and less distinctions between actors and classes.
The word is convergence
- Technology, communications, human organization, marketing, finance, and
further explorations of the future rushing in upon us.
The NEXUM project:
http://www.wiredbrain.net/symbian.htm
A clear image:
Since the Fallow’s article almost 10 years ago http://www.wiredbrain.net/documents/logos/fallow01.txt
and fallow.txt I have a changing image of the communications in the age
of technology. I have believed the free market would produce was rational,
logical, technologically economic communications system which looked like
this:
A receiver dish on your desk or outside on the wall
of your house and office broadcasts and receives digital signals from a
transmitters in the neighborhood ( up to 30 miles away - line of sight
or maybe not ). This single connection would provide really high speed
broadband - gigs per second - cable, telephone, Internet ( converged with
TV and phone ).
The big business will be service providers doing all the
hard stuff ( software ) up line. You IP number would connect you to the
world and the world to you where ever on what ever. Your domain name would
replace phone numbers, and all the other ID problems with transactions
in electric money as the device knows who you are ( thumb print, retina
read ).
If you wanted to write a letter - using voice recognition
from your cell phone to your NEXUM ( PC network device ) and e-mail it
or print it ( using Bluetooth ) or any financial, business, personal transaction
it would fly through the air from where-ever to where-ever.
The 100’s of millions of new connections in China and
the rest of the world without wires would use the same broadband wireless
system.
The phone companies, cable companies, broadcast companies, cell
phones, and computer hardware and software would all be in the IT communications
business. It is happening - http://www.wiredbrain.net/NEXUM.htm and http://www.wiredbrain.net/symbian.htm
The billion people on the Internet we talked about
a couple of years ago ( http://www.wiredbrain.net/packets.htm are almost
here.
The Internet as the links to phones, it is here now.
The TV Internet
connection is here @home and @work. What has not as been created is bandwidth
and the NC ( NEXUM ) but they are just over the horizon, looking More and
more like the playstation II and in the $ 350 range or comes with the $
50 monthly user fees including long distance, cable channels picked off
Satellites, Internet - Video user interface etc.
Sure people will use DSL ( fairly high speed phone
on copper ) people will use two way cable, some people and business will
use direct satellite or be on optic fiber, ( people still ride horses,
use wagons, sail boats, and walk but cars and planes have most of the transport
business ) BUT VOFDM, MMDS will replace most of these wired links by wireless,
better, freer more competitive services. I can’t track down the low power
radar (MIR) time division wideband line of sight transmitter and receivers
but it is being used by the military and seems to have no limits. Optic
fiber switches are in production to handle to backbone and local nodes.
The cost of communications content is dropping faster
than hardware - more that twice as much at half the cost every 18 months
by an order of magnitude ( 10 times more capacity for 1/10th as much cost
) ( Moore’s Law 10 X )
The design of the general communications and computing
device.
Design teams of teachers ( from around the world ) and
students from anywhere working on the interface of communications technology,
processing capacity, storage and data transfer compression, marketing,
finance, human machine interface ( ergonomics http://www.wiredbrain.net/ergonomics.htm
) because the specialist now has to consider bandwidth, chip capacities,
applications, service systems, distribution systems, content and market
demand factors all in one organized package.
Management, information technology, marketing, human
resources and production need to work together. Traditional products such
as automobiles and space rockets and atomic ships has advanced some in
design integration but computers still have a way to go - the
NEXT
must leap frog current compartment thinking into
new dimensions of systems analysis.
How is systems analysis different
from what has been used in the last 40 years.
It is more colorful and has more dimensions.
It becomes much more complex where there are many clients,
with many applications, using different languages and protocols. A great
server should ask and how do we establish an interface, what language do
you use, what program do you want, what operating system does it use, and
can I remember all this the next time we make contact ?
Amazon.com has shown the way within one set of protocols
of how to be client centric. Every store both e and non-e, should be able
to track several open ended data bases - inventory, catalog, store, client,
sales person, so as to show what exists and who is buying it. Wal-mart
and Builders Square, Office supply and Sears should have a the catalog
and inventory on line at the cash registrar and on-line for the buyers
with items, pictures, prices as well as complete lists of any clients or
sales person’s recorded sales. It world make it a lot easier for contractors
or anyone buying many different items.
A friendly server would connect such data bases to
user applications such as financial records and market research. Can any
client using different tools access open records for different purposes,
in different languages ? Can suppliers or comparative shoppers or programs
that search for best buys ? How would the Nexum, a simple communications
device, use server software to find the best buy ? Who do you compare features
? Models, grades, standards, ? All kinds of applications not invented need
to glide easily into existing systems.
The invention of credit, degrees, payment systems is easy
Color is better than black and white. Three dimensions
is better than two. Round in better than flat. Current instruction is gray
and flat - it needs to be colorful and round. Students in rows reviewing
text books under the control of an instructor is clearly colorless and
flat. Every once in awhile there is a little burst of color or a dark pit
but the surface is mostly two dimensional and the colors are black and

from what has been used in the last 40 years.
It is more colorful and has more dimensions.
It becomes much more complex where there are many clients,
with many applications, using different languages and protocols. A great
server should ask and how do we establish an interface, what language do
you use, what program do you want, what operating system does it use, and
can I remember all this the next time we make contact ?
Amazon.com has shown the way within one set of protocols
of how to be client centric. Every store both e and non-e, should be able
to track several open ended data bases - inventory, catalog, store, client,
sales person, so as to show what exists and who is buying it. Wal-mart
and Builders Square, Office supply and Sears should have a the catalog
and inventory on line at the cash registrar and on-line for the buyers
with items, pictures, prices as well as complete lists of any clients or
sales person’s recorded sales. It world make it a lot easier for contractors
or anyone buying many different items.
A friendly server would connect such data bases to
user applications such as financial records and market research. Can any
client using different tools access open records for different purposes,
in different languages ? Can suppliers or comparative shoppers or programs
that search for best buys ? How would the Nexum, a simple communications
device, use server software to find the best buy ? Who do you compare features
? Models, grades, standards, ? All kinds of applications not invented need
to glide easily into existing systems.

Color is better than black and white. Three dimensions

The last was between Armstrong

http://www.wiredbrain.net/disintermediation.htm) A superheterodyne circuit developed by U.S. Army Signal Corps major Edwin Howard
Armstrong, 26, became the basic design for all amplitude modulation (AM) radios. It
greatly increases the selectivity and sensitivity of radio receivers over a wide band of frequencies (see 1906; FM, 1933). Radio Corp. of America (RCA) was founded by Owen D. Young (see 1919) who loans Ernst Alexanderson to RCA which will employ him as chief engineer for 5 years (see 1906). RCA acquired the Victor Co. and become a
radio-phonograph colossus but anti-trust court actions will separate RCA from GE (see
VICTROLA, 1906; NBC, 1926). David Sarnoff urges marketing of a simple "radio music
box."
The American Marconi Co. says his plan will make the radio "a ‘household
utility’ in the same sense as the piano or phonograph" (see 1912; 1920).

of your house and office broadcasts and receives digital signals from a
transmitters in the neighborhood ( up to 30 miles away - line of sight
or maybe not ). This single connection would provide really high speed
broadband - gigs per second - cable, telephone, Internet ( converged with
TV and phone ).
The big business will be service providers doing all the
hard stuff ( software ) up line. You IP number would connect you to the
world and the world to you where ever on what ever. Your domain name would
replace phone numbers, and all the other ID problems with transactions
in electric money as the device knows who you are ( thumb print, retina
read ).
If you wanted to write a letter - using voice recognition
from your cell phone to your NEXUM ( PC network device ) and e-mail it
or print it ( using Bluetooth ) or any financial, business, personal transaction
it would fly through the air from where-ever to where-ever.
The 100’s of millions of new connections in China and
the rest of the world without wires would use the same broadband wireless
system.

phones, and computer hardware and software would all be in the IT communications

Sure people will use DSL ( fairly high speed phone
on copper ) people will use two way cable, some people and business will
use direct satellite or be on optic fiber, ( people still ride horses,
use wagons, sail boats, and walk but cars and planes have most of the transport
business ) BUT VOFDM, MMDS will replace most of these wired links by wireless,

must leap frog current compartment thinking into
new dimensions of systems analysis.
How is systems analysis different
from what has been used in the last 40 years.
It is more colorful and has more dimensions.
It becomes much more complex where there are many clients,
with many applications, using different languages and protocols. A great
server should ask and how do we establish an interface, what language do
you use, what program do you want, what operating system does it use, and
can I remember all this the next time we make contact ?
Amazon.com has shown the way within one set of protocols
of how to be client centric. Every store both e and non-e, should be able
to track several open ended data bases - inventory, catalog, store, client,
sales person, so as to show what exists and who is buying it. Wal-mart
and Builders Square, Office supply and Sears should have a the catalog
and inventory on line at the cash registrar and on-line for the buyers
with items, pictures, prices as well as complete lists of any clients or
sales person’s recorded sales. It world make it a lot easier for contractors
or anyone buying many different items.
A friendly server would connect such data bases to
user applications such as financial records and market research. Can any
client using different tools access open records for different purposes,
in different languages ? Can suppliers or comparative shoppers or programs
that search for best buys ? How would the Nexum, a simple communications
device, use server software to find the best buy ? Who do you compare features
? Models, grades, standards, ? All kinds of applications not invented need
to glide easily into existing systems.
The invention of credit, degrees, payment systems is easy
Color is better than black and white. Three dimensions
is better than two. Round in better than flat. Current instruction is gray
and flat - it needs to be colorful and round. Students in rows reviewing
text books under the control of an instructor is clearly colorless and
flat. Every once in awhile there is a little burst of color or a dark pit
but the surface is mostly two dimensional and the colors are black and
white.

The issue is China -
The PLA and post telegraph have hundred of millions of new users and can't string wires -
but can run a optic fiber backbone with radio towers CDM code or time division multiplex - either only needs a
little push to get there. What about Direct TV downlink and DSL up - these are the BIG issues. Who
controls the rules and protocols controls a lot.

-
Fast is more successful than slow.
Civilization progresses with greater literacy,
greater attention to the laws of man and nature, and greater freedom of

Current instruction is gray and flat - it needs to
be colorful and round. Instruction is slow, knowledge is cut into fragments

There are several clear themes as we move from two dimensions
to many:
1. ) Knowledge is not only transferred but invented
a lot of learning takes place in the process of invention
2.)
The organizing themes are tasks not subjects ,
Knowledge is organized around functions not disciplines
3.) there is creative interaction between teachers
and learners and less distinctions between actors and classes.

Keywords
Fate; destiny.
One's assigned lot or fortune, especially when evil. Often Weird. Greek
Mythology. Roman Mythology. One of the Fates. weird'ly adv. weird'ness
n. SYNONYMS: weird, eerie, uncanny, unearthly.
These adjectives refer to
what is of a mysteriously strange, usually frightening nature. Weird may
suggest the operation of supernatural influences, but it may also be applied
to what is merely odd or unusual: “
The person of the house gave a weird
little laugh” (Charles Dickens). “
There is a weird power in a spoken word”
(Joseph Conrad). Something eerie inspires inexplicable fear or uneasiness
that seems to result from a sinister influence: “At nightfall on the marshes,
the thing was eerie and fantastic to behold” (Robert Louis Stevenson).
Uncanny refers to what is unnatural and peculiarly unsettling: “
The queer
stumps . . . had uncanny shapes, as of monstrous creatures, whose eyes
seemed to peer out at you” (John Galsworthy). Something unearthly seems
so strange and unnatural as to come from or belong to another world: “He
could hear the unearthly scream of some curlew piercing the din” (Henry
Kingsley).

Third-generation
services are coming soon to a mobile phone near you --
-
but
first the platforms and standards have to be resolved.
Electricity
made mass production, telephones, photographs, radio, TV, and computers
possible, and now powers the internet. Packets replace circuits, self fixing
double encoded packets travel fast and faster.
The Personal
Communications Utility or Appliance or assistant ( personal digital
assistant ) PCU, PCA, or PAD ( personal access device ) or NC ( network
computer ) plugs into a pipeline that connects you to the backbone of the
internet.
The

global, cosmic, UNIVERSAL, UBIQUITOUS appliance device, mechanical contraption,
gadget, gismo, CONTRIVANCE doodad, doohickey, thingy, thingamabob, thingamajig,
that we all will carry around. At the counter in Wal-Mat it connects quickly
by infra-red link to the charge ( debit ) machine.
The true paper-less
banking. What do we have ? What did we buy ? How much did it cost on record.
How
our packets travel is the trillion dollar question; digital cell phones,
broadband, on the electric wires, cable, optic fiber, DSL or all
of the above ?
The
medium does require precise pulse placement in time (pulses are positioned
with an accuracy of trillionths of a second), and it also requires a coherent
correlating receiver - a Fullerton correlator. Larry Fullerton developed
and patented the technology over the last decade.
The technology based on pulse-echo radar, discovered around the turn of
the century. Such radar leverages the speed of light as an integral component
of its operation, measuring the echo that results when a pulse strikes
an object to determine that object's distance from the pulse source.

will happen tomorrow that effects your life today ????

NEW
DEVELOPMENTS IN STORAGEAccording to CMR (
http://www.cmruk.com/cmrinventions.html ), Professor Ted Williams and
his team are able to store 86 gigabytes per square centimeter, and to read
and write this data at 100 megabits/second. While few details are available
while their patents are pending, CMR does indicate that the process, funded
in part by the UK Department of Trade and Industry, exploits a new family
of metal alloys to create, "...a magneto-optical system not dissimilar
to that of CD-ROM, except that the system is fixed, solid state, and has
a different operating approach."
The
news tracker connection then runs everything
.
The Star Office 5.1
is a good example. It runs on open platforms and can be updated, reconfigured
to include sound and video telephones, and doesn't need to be completely
installed on every terminal but can run off the system network.
In
doing web pages, Netscape Composer, MS FrontPage, and Star Office use different
forms of code, HTTP ( hypertext ) different Java scripts, and can mess
each other and the author up. Now since they ( Netscape ( AOL ) and
Sun - part of the NOISE group, Netscape, Oracle, IBM, Sun and everyone
else - ) are enemies they may intend to screw each other with the author
in the middle.
How
about http://www.wiredbrain.net/battle.wav
and
too many other changes that work here but not there - audio plug-ins, ActiveX,
virtual machines, XML, etc. Etc..
This
is why the complex stuff has to be up-stream on the server if the communications
systems can communicate with each other.
The system knows where you
are (GPS), who you are ( IP) and what you are ( kind of device you are
using ) and what you want - voice, e-mail, conference, word processor,
accounts, pay a bill, collect a bill etc.
The
standards have to be set by SOMEONE - it can’t be done by a voluntary committee
as in the good old non commercial days when the DOD and NSF controlled
the net. It can’t be done by government ( too slow ) IT has to be global
- the EU and Asia are involved - sometimes well ahead.
The WWW system standard
was set at CERN - and the UN or a global trade or international postal
telecommunications agreement could set up a fast working body the approve
PROTOCALS. Now MS does the global job but is clearly not neutral or trustworthy,
since it is worth a good share of the almost trillion dollars in systems
sales.

NEW
DEVELOPMENTS IN STORAGEAccording to CMR (
http://www.cmruk.com/cmrinventions.html ), Professor Ted Williams and
his team are able to store 86 gigabytes per square centimeter, and to read
and write this data at 100 megabits/second. While few details are available
while their patents are pending, CMR does indicate that the process, funded
in part by the UK Department of Trade and Industry, exploits a new family
of metal alloys to create, "...a magneto-optical system not dissimilar
to that of CD-ROM, except that the system is fixed, solid state, and has
a different operating approach."
The
news tracker connection then runs everything
.
The Star Office 5.1
is a good example. It runs on open platforms and can be updated, reconfigured
to include sound and video telephones, and doesn't need to be completely
installed on every terminal but can run off the system network.
In
doing web pages, Netscape Composer, MS FrontPage, and Star Office use different
forms of code, HTTP ( hypertext ) different Java scripts, and can mess
each other and the author up. Now since they ( Netscape ( AOL ) and
Sun - part of the NOISE group, Netscape, Oracle, IBM, Sun and everyone
else - ) are enemies they may intend to screw each other with the author
in the middle.
How
about http://www.wiredbrain.net/battle.wav
and
too many other changes that work here but not there - audio plug-ins, ActiveX,
virtual machines, XML, etc. Etc..
This
is why the complex stuff has to be up-stream on the server if the communications
systems can communicate with each other.
The system knows where you
are (GPS), who you are ( IP) and what you are ( kind of device you are
using ) and what you want - voice, e-mail, conference, word processor,
accounts, pay a bill, collect a bill etc.
The
standards have to be set by SOMEONE - it can’t be done by a voluntary committee
as in the good old non commercial days when the DOD and NSF controlled
the net. It can’t be done by government ( too slow ) IT has to be global
- the EU and Asia are involved - sometimes well ahead.
The WWW system standard
was set at CERN - and the UN or a global trade or international postal
telecommunications agreement could set up a fast working body the approve
PROTOCALS. Now MS does the global job but is clearly not neutral or trustworthy,
since it is worth a good share of the almost trillion dollars in systems
sales.
