Motorola's Seamless Mobility: Neither Seamless Nor Mobile

Motorola's Seamless Mobility: Neither
Seamless Nor Mobile
07/27/2004 04:32 PM

We mentioned the non-surprisi ng, non-groundbreaking nature of Motorola's expected announcement concerning a WiFi-enabled mobile phone last week when the company conveniently leaked the info they'd first announced a year and a half ago. Now, after pumping up the PR efforts, it seems that everyone is writing about this WiFi-cellular phone, without bothering to look at the details. However, looking at those details make the phone appear... not that interesting. It's really a very limited device that can only be used with special 802.11a hardware. So, don't think you'll be using the phone at Wi-Fi hotspots any time soon. This is really just a gimmick to try to sell a new mobile phone to business users.

The Myth of Seamless Integration


The Myth of Seamless Integration 03/14/2003 01:28 AM
Integration of enterprise applications is not a pretty process. Despite all the tech advances of recent years, it is still costly and time-consuming, with a less than stellar return on investment. But a new era is upon us, enterprise software developers say, and the monolithic integration problems of the 1990s soon will crumble into dust.

Near-Seamless Handoff for 802.11 Roaming


Near-Seamless Handoff for 802.11 Roaming 04/14/2005 10:03 AM

Two University of California San Diego scientists have developed a better way of seamlessly handing off 802.11 roaming, making it possible for people from one hotspot to another without dropping connections. That's important not so much for data, which can handle a dropped packet here and there, but for streaming audio, video, and voice-over-IP.

The SyncScan solution proposed by Savage and Ramani is a method to continuously monitor the proximity of nearby 802.11 access points. Instead of looking for surrounding access points just when the current signal is running low, a Wi-Fi device with SyncScan regularly checks signal strengths nearby -- but only for very short periods of time. These times are picked to precisely coincide with regularly scheduled "beacon" messages sent by all standard Wi-Fi access points. The process eliminates the current need to start from scratch when looking for a stronger signal, and replaces the long scanning delay with many small delays that are imperceptible to the user.

So I almost skimmed past this while reading a rumor about the MPx (that I'll talk about after the jump), but boy, I'm glad I didn't. According to information gleamed from the FCC site, Motorola's new CN620 clamshell is coming to town, and by town I mean 'the town where you can transfer Wi-Fi Voice-Over-IP calls to GSM, also known as Awesomeville.' The quad-band GSM phone supports all three major Wi-Fi standards and is targeted towards corporate users.

Our sources at Motorola said to expect an official announcement later this month.

More about the CN620 and the MPx after the jump.

SuccessFactors today announced via a news release over US BusinessWire that the company successfully completed a software implementation at MasterCard International in a record-setting, two weeks time. In addition, SuccessFactors also provided MasterCard's 4000 worldwide employees with a seamless shift to our software while simultaneously reducing performance review-related help desk calls by approximately 25%. - Prior to SuccessFactors, MasterCard was using a workforce performance management technology that was severely limited in functionality. Specifically, there was limited reporting functionality, minimal visibility into each employees' performance history and multiple forms used across their worldwide organization that were unable to be tracked within one system.SuccessFactors was selected to unify the multiple HRMS systems in use at MasterCard, streamline the peformance management process and begin shifting HR's role away from a transactional agent to a more strategic partner driving business at the executive level. The decision to implement SuccessFactors technology was weighted heavily on the company's ASP business model, expansive reporting tools and ability to function as a business partner.
