Friedman quotes a former Swedish prime minister. "Our defining date is now 1989 and yours is 2001," I find this to be true. For most of the 90's, the US struggled to find a new purpose for its power. A few peace-keeping missions, a skirmish in Iraq (the first time), but for the most part, no real global strategy. Europe, on the other hand, has made significant progress with developing the EU, the euro (which no one believed would ever come about so quickly), and a semi-unified policy concerning the rest of the world (GB being the notable exception).

Agere Wants 500 Mbps out of IEEE 802.11n

Agere Wants 500 Mbps out of IEEE 802.11n 07/12/2004 02:24 PM
As the IEEE considers 802.11n proposals this week, Agere says 500 Mbps should be speed goal: Agere is combining MIMO (multiple in, multiple out antennas) with single and double-wide channel allotments of 20 and 40 MHz. With 40 MHz of spectrum and eight antennas (four transmit, four receive), they expect to reach 500 Mbps of raw throughput. In 5 GHz, Agere says, they could have 11 double-wide channels, while two are possible side-by-side in 2.4 GHz. Agere's proposal appears entirely backwards compatible with the single-wide, 802.11b/g channel and 2.4 GHz compatibility as a baseline....

If you're curious about what happened at the IEEE 802 meeting this last week, Daily Wireless rounds it up: From continuing lack of agreement on 802.15.3a (despite the withdrawal of everyone but Motorola, we thought) to new groups being formed and new 802.11 subletters, the IEEE moved mountains of paperwork and specifications around. Daily Wireless provides a cogent summary with links for more information about each subject....

MBOA Abandons IEEE--For Now

MBOA Abandons IEEE--For Now 01/28/2004 03:36 PM
The Multiband-OFDM Alliance (MBOA), a group that has been trying to set an ultrawideband standard within IEEE, is branching out on its own: The MBOA has failed again to get the necessary 75 percent vote required to move forward with the standardization process. As a result, the group has formed a special interest group to promote its technology. The MBOA blames Motorola for blocking its standardization push. Motorola is promoting its own version of UWB alongside XtremeSpectrum, which Motorola acquired last year, but was originally its separate ally on the matter. Motorola and the MBOA say they'll move ahead independently. Motorola says its chips will be in production this quarter, with consumer electronics products with the chips on the shelves at the end of this year. The MBOA may be just slightly behind, with silicon available in the last quarter of this year and products on the market in the second quarter 2005. The MBOA, however, says it will continue to try to get its technology standardized within the IEEE....

IEEE Approves Most Recent 802.16

IEEE Approves Most Recent 802.16 06/28/2004 12:59 PM
">The IEEE ratified the 802.16-2004 standard, marking a milestone in the development of the standard: Still, there's a long way to go. This article doesn't draw the distinction between 802.16 and WiMax. Now that the IEEE has ratified what had been called 802.16d, the WiMax Forum must still release its final specification for WiMax, which will be essentially a subset of the larger standard. Products built to the WiMax specification that get approved by the WiMax Forum can be assured to be interoperable with other WiMax gear. The IEEE ratification is an exciting milestone but the reality of a WiMax market in the United States is much farther in the future than some writers and industry followers acknowledge. This article notes that WiMax approved equipment should be available early next year. That's true, but basically all manufacturers will build their first generation products to operate in frequencies used overseas, not in the United States. It also remains to be seen how the final specifications--802.16 and WiMax--will affect folks like Alvarion. Alvarion is offering products today that it promises to upgrade to meet the final WiMax specification without additional cost to customers. Glenn described the whole process a couple weeks ago. One additional thought on Alvarion's decision to offer free upgrades is that they've taken a bit of a risk here but didn't have much of a choice. Some analysts have told me that some vendors are feeling a bit of a squeeze as potential customers are deciding to wait for certified WiMax equipment. In the meantime, the vendors aren't selling any gear. So Alvarion took the risk that they could make a reasonable guess at what the final specification would look like. They're hoping that they are close enough that they don't have to make major, expensive upgrades in the future to make the products WiMax compatible....

I've added Bitworking.org to the Outside Reading, a site I've been to before but found again today while traversing the recommended reading area at DiveIntoMark (which contains many more links to worthy reading). This quote really got my attention: "...I really don't care about people using Netscape 4. As a matter of fact if I could find a sequence of tags that would cause NN4 to do nasty stuff like erase your hard-drive or shoot lightning out of screen when viewing this site I would gleefully add them." I have to agree on principle that if you are using Netscape Navigator version 4 still, you have to get with the times and upgrade to a suitable browser. I understand that some corporations still mandate NN4's use for some unknown reason, and for people in that dilemma, I offer this handy link. I really wanted to attend Web Design World in Boston this week, but a combination of price and the college thing kept me away. I wanted to see Jeffrey Zeldman and peers speek, and spend time participating in what I am interested in. The latter part of that sentence is my main source of grief. My participation in this web design community has really been passive lately; there have been few opportunities at college. My greatest (scholastic) fear is that I will spend four years of undergraduate study writing C++ programs for class and finessing the web in my spare time, when ideally for me these two roles would be reversed. That being said I do have hope for the future. The Interactive Telecommunications Program, a graduate level program at NYU's Tisch School of the Arts, looks promising for those people interested in online and, more generally, interactive media. If anyone has any experience with this program, send me your thoughts.
