Broadband and digital ‘content’ in the EU-25: Recent trends and challenges

This paper focuses on recent trends and issues in the EU-25 countries related to one key broadband application area: digital media ‘content’ applications. It draws upon recently completed research addressing current and future uses and applications of broadband in the EU-25 area.

The paper presents key findings from the BEACON project concerning the broadband content trends and issues in the EU-25 countries. First, the paper briefly considers recent literature on broadband and digital media innovations as well as the policy context in Europe, which has an important influence on framing supports for innovation in content and digital media. Next, it addresses a number of key issues that impact upon the creation of content services. These include the high cost of content production and the difficulty of forming attractive business cases given the uncertainties related to user demand, and the IPR and copyright regimes. It will also consider users’ patterns of engagement with broadband content and emerging user applications. Next, the paper discusses whether broadband is reaching a ‘tipping point’, whereby broadband access is becoming the norm and in the next five years we will see the emergence of innovative, dynamic content services. The paper considers whether recent moves by three sets of significant actors (media corporations, the advertising sector, and EC regulators) could be early signs of a tipping point in favour of the creation of and more focused support for broadband content services.     

企业资产管理系统中通信模型的研究与实现

为了改善企业资产管理(EAM)系统在用户体验、模块间数据传输效率及耦合度等方面的不足,构建了基于Sil-verlight与WCF技术研究与实现EAM系统中的通信模型。利用Silverlight构建客户端提升了用户体验;使用WCF服务封装业务逻辑。客户端Silverlight应用程序通过代理调用WCF服务,提高了数据传输效率,降低了系统模块间的耦合性。     

某型履带车辆紧急制动动力学仿真分析

基于虚拟样机技术,用ADAMS/ATV模块建立了某型履带车辆紧急制动的动力学模型。通过实车的行驶试验和紧急制动试验对模型进行了验证,结果表明所建动力学模型在反映履带车辆行驶及紧急制动动力学行为方面能够满足工程分析的需要。将其作为分析平台,对履带车辆进行了以相同初速度在不同路面以及同一路面不同初速度情况下紧急制动动力学仿真分析,仿真结果表明,其符合在相同的路面制动初速度越大制动距离越远以及制动初速度相同的情况下,路面不平度越大制动距离越短的实际情况。     

IPTV助推数字家庭时代的到来

不同行业都在关注数字家庭的发展，但数字家庭发展缓慢的现状不容忽视。现阶段来看通信和媒体娱乐业务是数字家庭市场需求的重点，基于电信网络的数字家庭通过借助IPTV的音视频和增值应用业务可以顺应此要求。IPTV业务包括基本的音视频广播、点播、时移业务，以及信息服务、音视频通信、互动游戏、即时通讯、卡拉OK、远程教育等增值应用服务，非常适合数字家庭的发展需要，将使数字家庭的应用变得更为现实。未来，进一步推动数字家庭发展需要在易用性和业务创新两个方面取得突破，需要通过设备间的协同工作，为用户提供基于数据、语音、视频的三重业务新体验。

A Handover Strategy in the LEO Satellite-Based Constellation Networks with ISLs

A new handover strategy named minimal-hops handover(MHH) strategy for the lowearth orbit(LEO) satellite constellations networks equipped with inter-satellite links(ISLs) is proposed.MHH strategy,which is based on the hops of the end-to-end connection paths and makes good use of theregularity of the constellation network topology,can appropriately combine the handover procedure withrouting and efficiently solve the inter-satellite handover issue.Moreover,MHH strategy can providequality of services(QoS) guarantees to some extent.The system performances of the MHH strategy,suchas time propagation delay and handover frequency,are evaluated and compared with that of otherprevious strategies.The simulation results show that MHH strategy performs better than other previoushandover strategies.     

Unique Features of Mobile Commerce

While the market potentials and impacts of web-based e-commerce are still in the ascendant, the advances in wireless technologies and mobile networks have brought about a new business opportunity and research attention, what is termed mobile commerce. Commonly, mobile commerce is considered to be another new application of existing web-based e-commerce onto wireless networks, but as an independent business area, mobile commerce has its own advantages and challenges as opposed to traditional e-commerce applications. This paper focuses on exploring the unique features of mobile commerce as compared with traditional e-commerce. Also, there are still some limitations arisen in m-commerce in contrast to web-based e-commerce. Finally, current state of mobile commerce in Japan is presented in brief, with an introduction of several cases involving mobile commerce applications in today's marketplace.
