FOAF Vocabulary Specification

FOAF Vocabulary Specification
http://xmlns.com/foaf/ 0.1/#sec-foafvocab

The FOAF project is based around the use of machine readable Web homepages for people, groups, companies and other kinds of thing. To achieve this they use the "FOAF vocabulary" to provide a collection of basic terms that can be used in these Web pages. At the heart of the FOAF project is a set of definitions designed to serve as a dictionary of terms that can be used to express claims about the world. The initial focus of FOAF has been on the description of people, since people are the things that link together most of the other kinds of things they describe in the Web: they make documents, attend meetings, are depicted in photos, and so on. The FOAF Vocabulary definitions presented here are written using a computer language (RDF/OWL) that makes it easy for software to process some basic facts about the terms in the FOAF vocabulary, and consequently about the things described in FOAF documents. A FOAF document, unlike a traditional Web page, can be combined with other FOAF documents to create a unified database of information. This has been added to World Wide Web Reference Subject Tracer™ Information Blog.

Alvarion Releases "WiMax" Platform

Alvarion Releases "WiMax" Platform 06/02/2004 12:03 PM
Alvarion artfully crafts its BreezeMax press release to use the term WiMax without precisely saying what that means: There's no such thing as WiMax gear yet, but Alvarion wants you to accept that they're releasing the closest thing to it. There's no certification standard and no trademark program from the WiMax Forum, and that might be allowing a little market confusion to creep in. Look at the hedges in the press release: Based on the IEEE 802.16/ETSI HiperMAN standards and WiMAX Forum profiles -- that's profiles, not standards. With prominent roles in the WiMAX ForumTM...The BreezeMAX platform is designed to support WiMAX certified CPEs, which will incorporate the Intel WiMAX chip set as they become available in the market...these are "products that provide a path for operators to WiMAX standardisation"... All in all, perhaps they should have said more clearly: We're not selling WiMax equipment, but something we believe we be so close to it that only firmware upgrades are required. Interestingly, while they say futureproofed on one page, they don't mention whether purchasers would receive free hardware upgrades if the WiMax standard as deployed is too different to allow firmware changes to this equipment. Finally, while the equipment will ship in the 2004 third quarter, BreezeMax 3500 works in the 3.5 GHz band, which is only available in Europe and the Asia Pacific. Daily Wireless has more details about the equipment. Bandwidth and throughput aren't mentioned....

More Details on Alvarion Upgrade Offer

More Details on Alvarion Upgrade Offer 07/02/2004 05:52 PM
We've clarified a couple of points on recent posts about upgrading Alvarion BreezeMax 3500 "pre-WiMax" gear to interoperate with certified WiMax equipment: Alvarion isn't offering the upgrades for free as part of the original purchase. Once the WiMax Forum begins certifying gear and Alvarion understands what will be necessary to upgrade the products, it will negotiate the cost for upgrading the gear with customers that are interested in the upgrade. See Glenn's post and mine for the changes. Once the company begins marketing certified equipment, it will continue to support the "pre-WiMax" equipment, but will stop selling it. Also, the upgrades to the "pre-WiMax" products won't make the products identical to the line of certified gear. Instead, the upgraded network will become something of a hybrid, able to support the original customer premise equipment (CPE) as well as certified WiMax CPEs from any vendor. Some buyers of the "pre-WiMax" equipment aren't actually buying it because it can be upgraded, said Carlton O'Neal, vice president of marketing for Alvarion. "They don't care if we call it WiMax or a tomato, they want it," he said. This set of customers is buying products because they meet their current business cases, he said. He believes that the willingness to buy uncertified products is an indication of a new confidence in broadband wireless as a viable business....

Alvarion Already Pushing For Mobile
Not-Really-WiMax

Alvarion Already Pushing For Mobile
Not-Really-WiMax 01/06/2005 05:24 PM
This is apparently the time of the year when wireless companies have been trying out there "quick! look over there!" strategies, where they point to what's coming next, rather than discuss the problems they face today. First we had that Super 3G thing, which was an attempt to make people forget about other wireless technologies, and now we have Alvarion claiming that they're going to push forward with mobile WiMax, despite the lack of a standard. This is probably being done for three reasons. First, realizing that all the hype around WiMax is going to quickly turn to disappointment when people realize that it's not a mobile solution at all and it's not going to replace your DSL or your mobile phone any time soon. So, being able to point to mobile WiMax as "coming soon" rather than "coming sometime, maybe," probably looks better. Second, the WiMax folks are facing increasing competition from other wireless offerings -- some of which exist already and offer high speeds and mobility (such as FLASH-OFDM and UMTS TDD). Finally, Alvarion, who has bet big on WiMax, knows that plenty of companies are working hard to make sure mobile WiMax never exists. Alvarion (and Intel, who supports this move) are probably trying to force the issue by showing some working "pre-standard" (read: proprietary technology that we hope might possibly define the standard at some point, maybe) WiMax equipment, in the hopes that it will push past some of the obstacles other companies are laying down in front of any mobile WiMax standard.

Commitment

Alvarion Says Pre-WiMax Means WiMax
Commitment 06/18/2004 03:58 PM
Alvarion VP says that the company's new platform is ready for WiMax, backed by their promise to upgrade it: A few weeks ago, I wrote about Alvarion's BreezeMax platform and took the company to task for not spelling out precisely what they were promising customers when saying that BreezeMax was their WiMax platform. WiMax hasn't reached a final certification stage yet for equipment that complies to IEEE 802.16a: broadband wireless point-to-point service in the 2 GHz to 11 GHz range for licensed and unlicensed bands. That certification standard might not be ready until 2005; likewise, chips designed for it could be that far ahead, too. I wrote in May that Alvarion should have said We're not selling WiMax equipment, but something we believe we be so close to it that only firmware upgrades are required. I also wrote, Interestingly, while they say futureproofed on one page, they don't mention whether purchasers would receive free hardware upgrades if the WiMax standard as deployed is too different to allow firmware changes to this equipment. Alvarion wanted to clarify what they meant, and I spoke today with Carlton O'Neal, the vice president of marketing for the company. I asked O'Neal if Alvarion is guaranteeing its customers--as a few other firms have apparently done in a limited way--that BreezeMax would be a zero-cost WiMax upgrade when the final standard was available. He said it would. O'Neal said that the company had built the platform to allow software upgrades, firmware upgrades, and hardware upgrades. They believe that with the current state of the WiMax standard they can entirely rely on software and firmware to handle full WiMax certification: "Our hope, our plan, is that it's software and firmware," he said. Their last resort would be hardware, but "we're prepared to do that." Alvarion has been developing the BreezeMax system for three years, and decided that given the state of WiMax and their own readiness, they needed to bring the carrier-grade equipment into the marketplace with a commitment to make this their flagship WiMax platform even though the standard is still under development. What they deploy today works, and some of their customers may choose to stick with it far past when interoperable WiMax hardware and their own upgrades are available. Alvarion will eventually rely on chips built by Intel to power their WiMax gear, and Intel's circuits aren't due until 2005 at this point. But...
