Yang Zhen: seize the material network with TD-SCDMA combines historical opportunity

National People’s Congress, Yang Zhen, Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications (Tencent Technologies with map)

The first winter from the international financial crisis, China’s economy to recover, like early spring weather turns warm again, it allows people to clearly recognize that in order to “re the international market, domestic demand light and heavy low-cost advantages, light capability of independent innovation” as the the main features of the traditional approach to development can not carry the Chinese economy continues its rapid steady forward. In the “post-crisis era”, held the first national “ Two “On the way to speed up the transformation of economic development of NPC deputies and CPPCC members to become the focus of concern. While the development of new strategic industries is to speed up change in the mode of economic development an important part. A few days ago, my material well-known experts in the field of networking, the NPC and representatives, agricultural and industrial Democratic Party Vice-Chairman, Yang Zhen, Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications should be made to firmly grasp the complex networking and TD combination of historic opportunity, develop new strategic industries, and vigorously support independent innovation, accelerate the transformation of economic development mode to continue pushing forward China’s modernization process.

In China, the Internet of Things has been officially listed as a national strategy, and fill into the National Key Basic Research Development Plan (973 Plan). The TD-SCDMA as China’s independent innovation achievements as a third-generation mobile communications international standards, not only causes a higher level inter-communication, but also for the dialogue between the objects that created the conditions of things. In August 2009, Premier Wen Jiabao inspected Jiangsu Province, clearly pointed out: the sensor systems and 3G in the TD-SCDMA technology, combining the major scientific and technological projects in the country and accelerating the sensor network (ie, of things) development.

Yang Zhen Deputy Chairman believed that the 21st century is called the information society, development of the Internet is very fast, a tremendous impact on human beings.However, the core technology of the Internet standards and who developed it? Is only one answer, the United States. The Internet is just a virtual world, while the malpractices of things worldly things interconnected and connected to the vast Internet system for the greater human impact than the Internet. If the object key technologies and major networking standards are controlled by the hands of Western countries, we have independent intellectual property rights that are not, then China’s peaceful rise and the national revival of the strategy will be impossible.

Zhen Yang further pointed out that at present, we have to grasp the material network and the development of an important opportunity, especially to firmly grasp the complex combination of TD-SCDMA network and the opportunities that this combination of great significance.

First, the material combination of networking and TD will help promote the country’s economic structural adjustment. At present, China’s economy rely mainly on low-cost, low-tech industry support, rather than high-tech to drive, so that the economic structure is unreasonable. Internet of things as a national strategy and high-tech industries in emerging strategic economic restructuring and of great significance. Data show that in 2010 alone, physical networking industry chain will be driven 100 billion the size of GDP. By our self-developed TD-SCDMA network, which would also incubated a huge national industry market.

Second, the material combination of networking and TD are conducive to enhancing the security of national information strategies. Internet of things the more developed and the implications to the issue of information security more prominent, not only refers to the network’s own security, but also related to personal privacy, business secrets and military security. Since China holds TD-SCDMA core technology used in the development of things of their own country standards, technologies, equipment, etc., can better ensure that the country’s overall strategic security, in the future in the international exchange of information and more take the initiative.

Third, the Internet of things, and TD help speed up national independence, combined with technological innovation. Early last year, China issued 3G licenses, full into the 3G era.For consumers, he does not care about what technology used only concerned with access to any new business and services. For the TD-SCDMA is can not remain in the original 2G, based on the mere provision of voice service, you must look for new applications, while the Internet of things for the TD on the development of a very good support. He also pointed out that in the future development of complex sensor networking standards as well as the standard time of endings, if combined with the TD form a series of comprehensive standards, then for China’s development will be of very great significance.

Today, China has become the world’s Internet users, telephone and mobile phone users than any other country, which depends on China’s information industry in the reform and opening up by leaps and bounds, but in the 2G, 3G and other core and key technologies, we have also played a learner and following along with the role. Yang Zhen believe that our material network and the development of the basic synchronized with the world in order to TD-based 4G technology is expected to compete with international standards, “We are likely to achieve catch-up.” For telecom operators, network and TD combination of things is a very important opportunity. Previous operator’s role is to pipelines and platforms, and future role of the transformation operators for the information service provider. Therefore, regardless of the development of 3G, or 4G, the key is to provide affordable, new services and experiences, but of things being offered such new opportunities.

The good news is, at present the community of things for accelerating the development of a general consensus, the state ministries, universities, research institutions and related businesses have also been mobilized to find things with Chinese characteristics and network development. Actively promote the Internet of Things, as representatives of the construction of China Mobile in just one year’s time, and a TD construction and operation of an unconventional approach to development, through the creative implementation of the “three no’s three new three integration” initiative, will TD-SCDMA from the partial experimental network development to cover 70% of prefectures and cities nationwide 3G commercial network, networking applications for the material development of large-scale industrialization has laid a solid network infrastructure. In November 2009, China Mobile in Wuxi City, Jiangsu Province, have established a Research Institute and of things of things data center, focusing on TD-SCDMA network integration and material technology research and application development, supporting materials related to business networking, and in cooperation with local governments in the industrial, agriculture, public services, a variety of forms in various fields of application and demonstration projects. At the same time, China Mobile has developed a set of independent intellectual property rights and machine to machine communication (M2M) solutions, and has become the main form of networking applications things have been in smart buildings, street surveillance, animal traceability, mobile wallet, environmental monitoring, etc. has been widely used. The Xiamen TD wireless city construction, the promotion of large-scale application of things created a blueprint.

Zhen Yang also said that as a new thing, we have not completely grasped the material network and the development of law and technology system in the development process should pay attention to many problems. Networking is not a simple matter such as the virtual world, to many of the issues related to national security. Therefore, the Internet of things can not depend on the development of an enterprise, but also needs the state to intervene to control who can access to Internet of things, what information is available, as well as to formulate relevant laws and regulations. In addition, the content of things is very broad, involving sensing, radio frequency identification, communication networks and many other technologies, which we have basically mastered the individual technologies, but what constitutes an organic unity of the network and the formation of the “standard” also requires us to further study.

First Windows Phone 7 Series mobile phone exposure

LG version of the Windows Phone 7 Series prototype (Tencent Technologies with map)

Tencent Technology News (compiler / Becks) Beijing March 6, according to foreign media reports, Microsoft announced this week, the latest version of mobile operating system, Windows Phone 7 will not support all Windows mobile application in the past.

Windows Phone 7 mobile phone is expected to be available later this year. Prior to Microsoft said, Windows Phone 7 will be a “very different from the past,” operating system.Week 4, Microsoft is responsible for contact with the outside developers Gindl Charles (Charlie Kindel) explained that in the blog to give up the past versions of Windows Mobile applications support is to enable the Windows Phone 7 operating system, as powerful, as far as possible The user-friendly.

Microsoft’s most disappointed that this decision may be those who have already developed Windows Mobile applications and has been made available to employees to use business. At the same time, Microsoft decided to give application developers access to a dilemma: In order to develop Windows Mobile 6.5 applications will become a road without a future, but the Windows Phone 7 will have to be available later this year.

In order to over 10 million lines with mobile phones to compete with Apple’s applications, the major handset manufacturers are making great efforts to promote mobile applications.However, Microsoft has given up its past support for all Windows Mobile applications to make Windows Mobile applications from scratch again to return to the situation 10 years.

Microsoft said the Windows Mobile application of the majority of the past no longer meet the new standards, the last application is designed for mobile phones with pen input, while the Windows Phone 7 touch screen will support the fingers.

Last year, mobile phone makers Palm also launched a “very different from the past,” mobile phone operating system, gave up 10 years old operating system, the introduction of new Web OS. However, the new operating system can support for the launch of the last version of the application.

Charlie Gindl said Microsoft will still be in the next few years to provide support for Windows Mobile 6.5, but there will still be equipped with Windows Mobile 6.5 phone systems available.

Shanghai Pudong Development “was financing” to move into doubt who is the bride who

March 6th, 2010 Hero No comments

March 3, Shanghai Pudong Development Bank Co., Ltd. (hereinafter “the Shanghai Pudong Development Bank”) issued a public notice, said: “with China Mobile Limited and its subsidiaries in respect of its strategic stake in the strategic cooperation and consultation being carried out. Because of the associated program still need to demonstrate the company’s stock to continue the suspension until after the resolution the board to make a timely announcement and resume trading. “

Various aspects of the introduction of a power stronger than themselves too much central level, whether it is a kind of feeling? This issue, perhaps Shanghai Pudong Development Bank itself is difficult to give an unequivocal answer 1:00. “The Shanghai Pudong Development Bank, the strategic cooperation is the most valuable.” Relevant banking source said.

Shanghai Pudong Development Bank declined separate ways on the one hand the media request for an interview the other hand, China Mobile Limited (referred to as “China Mobile”), the head of Mr. Wang is in the Two The prospects for bilateral cooperation during the frequent blowing warm air. The partners is relatively somewhat subtle performance, not help the industry in the concerns of the imagination.

Poor money Shanghai Pudong Development Bank

“150 billion funding scale, the press at June 30, 2009 assets at the end of the static calculations, raising funds become available, the core capital adequacy ratio of 6.22%, capital adequacy ratio of 9.65%, in the listed banks are still at a low level. “This is the Shanghai Pudong Development Bank September 17, 2009,” Shanghai Pudong Development Bank Co., Ltd. on the company’s long-term capital planning notice “in a description, the text refers to the year of 15 billion years of non-public directed additional funding amount.

This time the introduction of China Mobile, there are foreign media quoted from the Guotai Junan Securities Co., Ltd. in a research report, China Mobile Shanghai Pudong Development Bank plans to issue additional direction about 22 million shares, additional stake in China Mobile after the proportion of 20%. Guotai Junan’s report also said that this orientation to the issuance of shares of China Mobile 40 billion yuan fund-raising (about 5.86 billion U.S. dollars), Shanghai Pudong Development Bank will raise the core capital adequacy ratio to 10% or more, the overall capital adequacy ratio increased to nearly 14 %, which in the next three years to ensure business stability and rapid growth.

On the Shanghai Pudong Development Bank, the last few years to the outside world I feel like the money has been relatively poor. China International Capital Corporation Limited (hereinafter referred to as “the King”), Shanghai Pudong Development Bank, in its third quarter results for 2009 research report also pointed out that in 2010 is expected to need to continue to supplement its core capital.

According to latest requirements of the CBRC, large state-owned banks and small and medium commercial banks minimum capital adequacy ratio was increased to 11% and 10%, of which the subsidiary capital to supplement the amount of long-term subordinated debt can not exceed 25% of core capital, from that, Shanghai Pudong Development Bank’s capital is still an urgent need to add.

A local regulatory official told reporters, regulators stepped up this year, the reason why the regulatory requirements for commercial banks, mainly in the hope of those listed and unlisted commercial banks in the fast development, more robust pace.

“Is financing” doubts

In general, both inside and outside the industry will have a diametrically opposite view of things, attitude. This time, the Shanghai Pudong Development Bank and China Mobile has not yet formally charged to listen to the strategic cooperation that is all.

“Commercial Bank is not short of money.”, And brokerage and other areas of widely differing views of some market participants, a number of senior bankers, however, took this view.

According to banking industry sources said, in fact, from the bank perspective, “Banks generally do not want to let outsiders into the so-called equity investment, how to give banks what? Unless there are genuine strategic cooperation in other areas.”

We can see that Shanghai Pudong Development Bank and China Mobile’s hand, Shanghai Pudong Development Bank could take to receive a generous funds to supplement the capital adequacy ratio has been stretched beyond the rest is spread everywhere in the mobile phone initiative payment platform.

Nokia’s Symbian open source or may be completed ahead of schedule to combat Ipad

February 26th, 2010 Hero No comments

Recently, Symbian Association announced that it has completed ahead of the source code for Symbian platform, open-source release, which means that Symbian source code available to third-party developers and developers free of charge.

At present, the world’s Symbian platform for smart phones has more than 330 million total, but as in recent years, Google Android, Apple Mac massive invasion and occupation of smart phone operating platform market, Sym bian market share is constantly being eroded.Gartner report said that two years will greatly increase the share of Android, a direct threat to the status of Sym bian, therefore, speed up the open-source work, as Nokia has been the industry’s first high-profile counter-attack, Sym bian is not just behind the cell phone platform, Nokia is still very the possibility of adopting Symbian reverse “invasion” of tablet PCs, Duihan IPAD.

Ahead of open-source? Active or passive

The third quarter of 2009, statistics show, Symbian in the smart platform, accounted for 45% of market share is still the absolute leader, the situation with the previous years, more than 6 percent of market share compared to already shrunk 1 / 4.

At present, Apple with iPhone (mobile Internet) a mobile phone, has occupied the global operating system market to more than 17.1% of the share, Google Android Although only 4%, but as a new system, and 1% compared with a year ago, is already an increase of four times, coupled with support for the system, increasing the number of terminal vendors, their share is expected to further growth in 2010 to about 10%. Coupled with BlackBerry has been occupied by 20%, Sym bian’s leadership position is no doubt began to become “precarious.”

Under the signs, Symbian had to change. But in the end is to select an open line of all Google, or Apple’s full-closed route? Nokia Symbian behind the final choice the former.

To spend 410 million U.S. dollars in the shares of Symbian carried out in full after the acquisition, Nokia had announced in 2010 free of charge on the Symbian open-source projects.

“Right now contains the Symbian platform, open-source code for all 108 modules already available from Symbian developer site to download.” LeeWilliams executive director of the Association, according to Symbian introduced a new escalation of Symbian platform for the future versions will be completely free of charge for developers to open source, this The new version, called Symbian3 platform will become the first quarter of this year, with “perfect function” platform, which undoubtedly is another Android, a more mature Android.

Backfire on Apple, Google? From the phone into the computer

“In the next one to two years, using Symbian operating system, Tablet PC, or the Internet appeared on the market this is very possible.” LeeW illiam s says. In fact Nokia’s Symbian operating system are already under way will be applied to already available hardware platforms, at present, this system has been in the Intel Atom platform to run. Previously, Nokia has unveiled the Internet in this Book-let3 G, however, it is a use of WindowsMobile7 products.

For the mobile Internet will be the transformation of Nokia, will extend to mobile phones outside the Symbian system, such as computers, MID, Internet access to this and other terminals, seems to be sooner or later only. With the open source Symbian, Nokia does not require hands-on, a large number based on the system seek to develop space and the profit margins of the third-party developers will be glad to do so.

Symbian speed behind the cross-platform strategy

“The future of smart phones will only be mobile Internet device is an integral part of the Internet in this, MID and even the emerging e-book reader will support mobile Internet platform for the emergence of intelligent features.” Warring States, senior analyst Yang Qun that in the past Different companies focus on different market, with the 3C become increasingly blurred boundaries, many products produced interconnection between the demand, and the interconnection of different brands on the hardship.

“Nokia, Google and Apple want to do is to solve this problem, but only in their own system to resolve.” He added, the same operating system, the unified cross-platform, it will become an international giants are focal points of contention.

At present, because the root concept of the Internet free of charge, the momentum of rapid development of Google Android. It has been handset manufacturers, Internet of the manufacturers, Tablet PC manufacturers and even the use of e-book vendors.

Although Apple’s MACOS closed system, but by virtue of the company’s own brand of power has begun to expand multi-platform technology. IPad on the recently released yet another proof of this — Apple does have single-handedly, to break down a variety of platforms.

The open-source Symbian speed, using it already has many users and developers will no doubt push the high point of competition. It is noteworthy that Nokia may already be open source as a direction to enter the Internet. Not long ago, Nokia has just announced that its maps for free, but also an expression of open source.

February 25th, 2010 Hero No comments

The global communications industry body GSM Association (GSMA) said today that in order to meet growing customer demand, is expected in 2010, global major mobile operators for wireless broadband technology, capital investment will reach 72 billion U.S. dollars the maximum.

GSMA believes that this year’s major global mobile operators for the expansion of mobile network infrastructure in all capital expenditures, approximately half will be used for wireless broadband technology investments The investment in this area increased 15% compared with 2009.

GSMA quoted Deutsche Bank (Deutsche Bank) of the relevant statistical data, said district as the standard, is expected this year’s Asia-Pacific region for wireless broadband, the total capital expenditure of up to 34 billion U.S. dollars, in North America up to 19 billion U.S. dollars, the highest in Europe up to 140 billion U.S. dollars. GSMA director of technology Dan Wolun (Dan Warren), said: “In addition, HSPA (High Speed Packet Access) technology, also will show a substantial amount of investment growth potential.”

The so-called wireless broadband, refers to the use technical standards HSPA mobile data connectivity services. The service can also handle voice calls and data transmission. In other words, mobile phone users to call the process, the same can be connected to the Internet. Warren said: “It is envisaged the end of this year, the global number of HSPA connections will be nearly 340 million monthly additional HSPA connections to 13 million.” The end of 2009, the global number of new HSPA connections 9 million.

Warren pointed out that each new HSPA connection, does not necessarily mean an increase in wireless broadband new users because of mature markets in Europe and the United States, a user will often have several mobile phones. In the emerging markets, often several people sharing a cell phone or cell phone rental. Warren said: “Russia, for example, several people share a notebook computer is very widespread phenomenon.”
