Introduction: Mobile computing is one of them in the several new innovations that has been made in information technology over past decade.
Communication from homes, office, cars and hand–held computers is the current trend of distributed mobile computing. Mobile computing is a
human– computer interaction by which a computer can be portable during normal usage. Portability is one of the aspect of mobile computing. As like a
computer, mobile computing must have a software, hardware, and a communication channel. Hardware includes device components such as chargers,
batteries, antennas etc. Communication include, Wi–Fi and networks as well as communication properties, protocols, data formats and concrete
technologies. Mobile software includes the software like windows, iOS and other requirements of mobile applications. Working Principle of mobile
computing devices: Mobile computing is the idea that users can process data or perform digital tasks on mobile devices. Traditionally data was routed

The Negative Effects Of Smartphones And Social Media
In the world we live in today everyone is connected to one another through their smartphones and social media, Although this has had positive
effect on the world i believe that the negative effects outweigh the positive effects. The extensive use of smartphones and social media have made
it harder for students to gather and obtain information due to their dependence on technology to easily gather it for them. Studies have shown that
the increased use of social media and smartphone have lead to mental health problem among teens. With everyone so worried about their
facebooks and instagrams they haven't been able to learn how to properly socialize with other people. Smartphones and social media have
negatively affected students ability to obtain information, alter their emotional stability, and negatively influence their social skills. Smartphones
and social media have made gathering information difficult for people in living in the world because they rely on their smartphone and other
technology to obtain the information the need for them. This has affected people's ability to read and absorb information from long articles or
book where they actually have to take the time to read them. In his article Is Google Making Us Stupid? Nicholas Carr argues that the use of
technology has made it harder for him to read books or other long articles stating " My mind would get caught up in the narrative or the turns of the
argument, and i'd spend hours strolling through long stretches of prose. That's rarely the case anymore. Now my concentration often starts to drift
after two or three pages" (Carr 314). This quote is talking about Nicholas Carr's inability to concentrate on long piece of writing like he used to be
able too. Carr blames this on his use of technology stating "I think i know what's going on. For more than a decade now, i've been spending alot of
time online, searching and surfing and sometimes adding to the great databases of the internet... Research that once required days in the stacks or
periodical rooms of libraries can now be done in minutes" (Carr 314). Nicholas Carr states this to put into perspective that technology is reducing the
time and concentration it takes to research information the one

Nokia 's Marketing Strategy For Nokia
Name of organization: NOKIA
Project Scope:
The main goal for Nokia is to recover its capitulated marketplace and return to its leadership position in the Smartphone market. The firm generally
counts on the partnership alongside Microsoft, and on its Lumia smartphones to accomplish this goal. Nokia additionally selects a marketing strategy to
apply for some of the Lumia phones in Europe.
Specific contributors to the project failure:
1.The major contributor to the project failure is the competition, Nokia faces from Apple, Samsung and other smartphone companies.
2.Nokia has had troubles adapting to the marketplace changes.
3.Wrong implementation of marketing strategy and specific problems related to the positioning of the products has been one of the major factors for
project failure.
4.Nokia launched an advertisement to market its new Lumia devices. The advert aimed to prop the firm's claim that the technology helped reduce
blur, but afterwards from the video it became clear that it was filmed alongside a professional camera. This was truly a bad onset for Nokia's flagship
device. The launch of the device was a very crucial moment for Nokia and this was a big mistake.
Root cause of the contributing factor:
1.Apple entered with the launch of iPhone in the European smartphone market for the first time in November 2007. The smartphone has been very
successful and by now there are 6 generations of the product. Currently the market share of iPhone in Europe

Sony is a Japanese multi–industry cooperation; founded in 1946, headquarters in Tokyo, Japan. There are a diversity of segments consisted within the
company, such as consumer electronics, music, financial services and motion pictures. As a leading manufacturer, Sony appeals to both consumers and
professionals through their innovative inventions to improve lifestyle and convenience to suit the needs of the future target market within their

Wearable technology, in the case of Sony, SmartWear, is a predicted trending branch of ubiquitous products set to become the next generation
technology. As advancements in computer engineering enable electronic chips to become smaller, and batteries to become longer lasting, the
engineering technology involved is advanced enough to be integrated in the form of a small wearable device. Wearable tech incorporates gadgets that
are integrated into everyone's daily life in the form of fashion. Whether the tech is the form of glasses (Google glass smart glass), a watch (Sony smart
watch) or an earpiece (Hearables), the product must appeal to consumers through the functionality and form.
Recently, late October 2014 was the release of the Sony SmartWatch 2 (SW3) to consumers, the third–generation smart watch within the SmartWear
product family. However, improvements have dramatically occurred in terms of the functionality that sets it apart from the rest of the competing smart

Failure Of Nokia
As it was stated in the introduction, with the smartphone revolution, Nokia failed to understand the future direction of mobile devices. This
underestimation of the rising innovation, in terms of global market shares, led to a drastic decline – from 2007 to 2013, the company lost 45.2% of its
market shares (Statista, 2014). It is worth mentioning, that in 2004, at Nokia's Espoo headquarters, researchers have presented a mobile phone
prototype, which was able to connect to the internet and it was controlled by a touch–screen (O'Brien, 2010). However, Nokia's senior management had
rejected the idea, stating that it would be an expensive failure to develop it. That allowed American and Asian companies to become leading
companies, as they adopted a more innovative idea of the smartphone. Despite the fact that the company started to lose its market shares to competitors,
Nokia tried to take the role as strategic innovator by ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
For instance, Nokia Networks recently revealed the programmable 5G architecture infrastructure which is able to adjust automatically radio access and
core network resources by meeting the needs of different services (Nokia, 2015). Being innovative in the telecommunication industry means for Nokia
competing in a fast developing and booming networking sector, which generates most of the company's revenue. Chaudhuri (2015) believes, that in
Nokia's case, presence in telecommunication industry is more profitable than mobile handsets manufacturing. This strategy shift may allow the
company to win the game by redefining market orientation. To support this example, the author uses the Ericsson case, which illustrates the company's
decision to sell its handset business to Sony, after it lost its ability to compete with other manufacturers. Ericsson's focus on mobile networks allowed

Reasons For The Failure Of Nokia
Nokia has been one of the brands that are in the last 20 years been synonymous with high–quality phones. Till 2007, Nokia had a market share of 80%
in the smartphone market, and the main reason for losing ground during the "second coming of the smartphone age" was due to the weak position of
Nokia in the "technological system" (or ecosystem).
Nokia failed in connection to people!!
Reason for Nokia failure is on one side that Apple redefined smart phones with touch screen and Blackberry with email, and on the other side, Android
proved that software matters more than hardware. Nokia was slow to respond to these trends. In 2008, brands like Samsung, HTC, and Sony found
roots to extend their market. Samsung's Android phones are user friendly and budget friendly too. When every ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net

And the end of the it is the satisfaction of the customers using the phones and the recommendations they make that really matter.
It needs to make technological innovations which will essentially and effectively differentiate its products and other models from those of other
companies. These innovations should help Nokia stand out from its adversaries and should at the same capture the required attention of the potential
buyers in the market of smart phones in India.
Nokia should start keeping up with the latest trends and accordingly should enter into the current era of wearable devices like the smart watches and
bands that Samsung and Sony are coming up with. It also needs to focus on the overall look of the product as it tends to influence the buyer's
judgement a lot.
Conclusion
So, what can we learn from this unexpected incident of Nokia? It's simple. Any organization either a high profile one or an SMB, besides growing up

cable (Taylor, 2001). By late 1992Nokia was Europe's biggest producer of mobile phone, and second worldwide behind Motorola.
While leading worldwide in market share since 1998, Nokia was being pushed down–market as competitors emerged and the telecommunication

operating system. Ovi not as successful as predicted, as the iOS and Android market share continued to increase. Nokia focused on the Symbian
for far too long, a platform established since 2002. Operating systems became an important factor for the success of manufactures as customer

Laser Diode : An Type Of Display
ABSTRACT: This type of display is a example of Retina display. Working principle of this type of display is Laser diode like coherent sources will
help the VRD to give a diffracted limited spot on retina. Here photon source acts as the Intensity Modulator. It is actually done to match the intensity
of the image produced. The next step after Intensity Modulation is Beam Scanning. It constantly keeps the image pixels on the retina. In scanning
there are two modes. They are Rester and Vector mode. Both the scanning takes place. The next step of scanning is projecting the image to the retina.
To synchronize scan and modulate the coming video signals drive electronic is applied. Synchronization is done in order to stabilize the images. One
of the best example is google glasses. Its architecture consist of paire of glasses on either eyes with block of glasses which allows us to view augmented
reality. Image text or information can be displayed right in the front of our eyes. This type of display is yet in its beginning stage. Slight variations
are made to make it more advanced to bring comfort to man. The marked change made recently is the replacement of bone audio system to a single
headphone. In bone audio system, the audio was produced with the vibration of bones in the face. It is replaced now to produce stabilized and

Nokia and Microsoft Partnership Analysis
Nokia and Microsoft Partnership Analysis
Introduction:
Microsoft is the most established software giant and Nokia is the company that is the icon for electronic and communication equipments. Microsoft had
a partnership with the computer manufacturer IBM that made the software of Microsoft from DOS to modern Windows 8 famous and most used. The
same underlying principle of symbiosis has been used inn this alliance. There are many reasons why Microsoft had to enter the cell phone industry. Arch
Rival Apple came out with the iPhone and revolutionized the mobile world. Though the gadget was not a direct competitor, Microsoft was out of a
huge potential market, namely the mobile segment.
More and more applications that were used in the PC and laptop began to be used with the mobile. It was with the availability of internet with the
mobile that made companies like Nokia look for platforms to deliver the service– including surfing and connecting to social media that prompted
developers to begin developing programs for this segment. It was also this development that made Microsoft consider going into the mobile sector
since the company had already established itself in the tablet segment.
What were the forces leading to the partnership?

Opportunities of Nokia
As mentioned before, Nokia phones are on demand in India, Nokia's new campaign with Nimbuzz could benefit Nokia in variety of ways. First of all

While Apple and Samsung phones are in the lead, Nokia is somewhere behind, but there are some features of Nokia phones that could definitely
compete with leading phone companies. For example, high quality camera. Nokia can improvise on it. Nokia Lumia 1020 has one of the best camera
features on the market. The range of options and different effects of that camera are truly impressive. The Nokia Lumia 1020 has 41–megapixel
camera and takes pictures and videos like no other phones out there. Colours and quality of photographs are amazing. High–resolution zoom is other
great feature to mention. Also, you can reframe, crop and rotate pictures in any way you desire. For some reason Lumia 1020 is not as popular as
people would expect, having such an amazing high quality camera it is still behind Apple and Samsung phones which is disappointing because

Nokia Case Study
Introduction
Nokia failed to seize and transform the opportunity to dominate the smartphone era due to top management team homogeneity which led to identity
trap and made them unable to adapt to changing environment from the period of 2006 to 2013 and was sold off to Microsoft by 2014.
Background
Mobile industry
IBM's Simon Personal Communicator, introduced in 1994, despite not being the first smartphone, was the first device to feature a phone with
additional capabilities to act like a personal digital assistant, which would pave the way for future development of the mobile phone industry. It has
come a long way from the first Blackberry 5810 in 1999, to the Motorola RAZR in 2004, and eventually the iPhone and Android in 2007 and 2008
respectively, which ushered in the new age of smartphones.
Nokia
Nokia started off as a paper manufacturing company and transitioned into a manufacturing cables and electronics company in the late 1960s. In the
1990s with the fall of the Soviet Union, demand for infrastructure for wireless network grew because Finland telecom infrastructure sector was
deregulated due to an economic crisis at that time sooner than other European countries, which helped catapult Nokia even further. In 1996, with the
launch of Nokia's first "smart" phone, the Nokia 9000 communicator, they plunged into the mobile phone industry. Fast forward to 2006, the industry
was flooded with a range of both flip and feature phones and Nokia was dominating the mobile phone

The Importance Of Social Media
American consumers spend on average five hours each day on their smartphones. Whether we're checking emails, texting or scrolling through social

means of communication that are used by large groups of people to share information and to develop social and professional contracts. Some
commonly known communication platforms are Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Pinterest. These websites are used to share photos, as a news
source, to reconnect with friends, and to communicate instantly.

Hence, the highlight of the above analysis is Nokia weaknesses and threats. It can be seen that the main issues are coming from its former top
management competencies to compete with the competitors (Scott, 2011a) and lack of awareness to follow the smartphone market trend (Auchard and

For example, when the middle managers wanted to reported 'negative information' to the top manager, they should change the information to be
positive to satisfy the top managers and reducing the pressure to be scolded (Vuori and Huy, 2015a). This affected the innovation process of Nokia's
mobile phone where top managers believed that Nokia was fine and did not need to make any changes (Vuori and Huy, 2015b), in this context is
Nokia Symbian OS. Vuori and Huy (2015b) did the analysis by interviewing 76 people including top and middle managers as well as 'external experts'.
They also found that the 'fear' coming from the top managers to its competitor (Apple) causing them reluctant to change (Vuori and Huy, 2015b).
Another finding from Doz and Kosonen (2008) showed that the top management in Nokia mobile phone did not have the 'leadership unity' resulted in
the loss of 'strategic agility' to survive in the 'agile environment' where Apple and Samsung coming to the market and have replaced its position.

The Misstep Of Nokia Its Failure
The Misstep of Nokia Which Led Its Failure Introduction
Nokia is well–known as a Finnish Corporation which makes quality phones, but at its beginning, it was just a pulp mill. According to Nokia Website
(Our history, 2017), "Few companies have Nokia's storied capacity for transforming, developing new technologies and adapting to shifts in market
conditions." Indeed, Nokia had a successful transformation in business. Nokia was founded in 1865 by a Finnish engineer, Fredrik Idestam. As a pure
mill, paper making was its main business. Then, it gradually expanded to the business of rubber, cable, power plant, and television (Our story, 2017). It
mainly engages in electronic information technology, multinational communications, and consumer ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Due to the underestimate of the smartphone business, Nokia started to lose its market share and then it failed in the competition of smartphones. After
several years flounder, Nokia's mobile phone business was acquired by using 7.9 billion dollars by Microsoft in 2013. At that time, Nokia's market
share fell to 2.8% (Pearce, 2016).
Nokia taught a lesson which is opportunity knocks once, and the neighbors do the rest of the time. As a firm, right decisions should be made at the
right time in order to catch the opportunity. Nokia made wrong decisions while it was facing the opportunity, so it declined year by year. When Nokia

What are good decisions and bad decisions? Good decisions will lead to good outcomes (Spetzler, 2016). In contrast, bad decisions will cause bad
outcomes. Therefore, decision–making is important for a company as they will generally affect the result of the company. In other words, the company
can either profit or loss depend on what kind of decisions are made.
Nokia made some bad decisions, so it reached a bad outcome. In order to find the biggest factor in Nokia's downfall, the paper will firstly show what

Technology That Supports The Hardware Side Of The Adjacent...
The intent of this chapter is to discuss the evolution with regards to technology that supports the hardware side of the adjacent market. There is a huge
positive correlation, which drives revenue maximization for Microsoft Operating system and ecosystem partners. Before 2007 electronic devices

The Final Stage Of The Digital Diet
The final stage of the digital diet is to vitalize. Once again in this section Sieberg stresses the importance of balance, "The success of this process
comes down to you – make balance a priority, and the rewards will manifest" (Sieberg 1687). This section really focuses on how the readers can
take what they have learned from the past three stages and apply them to every day life. He discusses how it is important to understand how
technology plays a role in your life, how it enhances it and diminishes your every day life and why you are using it. Thinking about these things
will allow you to make better decisions regarding your use of technology. Sieberg explains that much like Newton's law everything we do has an
equal and opposite reaction. Once again, think about the reaction that is caused by your use of technology whether it is a positive or negative
outcome. Taking the time to really look at this will provide you with a more productive way of using technology. This does not necessarily mean you
cannot spend time on social media, but putting a limit on your usage can be extremely beneficial. During this stage it is important to manage the use
of technology with your family or those you live with. Depending on your living structure you can set rules for the household. This can include
limiting video game usage for your children or not allowing smart phones at the dinner table. Setting rules based on your life can help you stay on

Pros And Disadvantages Of Centralized Or Decentralized...
Centralized or Decentralized data analytics In centralized analytics, the data and the talent to provide analytical expertise are in one group. This single
group provides analytics for all the business units and it alone works on different projects. This unit is also responsible for deciding in what direction
the analytics has to proceed in that organization. The advantage of making the data analytics team centralized is that reporting across all the business
units is standardized. The data governance policies are enforced significantly. It provides uniformity in the metrics across the organization there by
building the confidence of other divisions using them alongside their data knowing that the whole organization is on the same page. Centralized data
analytics makes it easy to deploy analysts to the projects with strategic priority. There are also many disadvantages to centralization. It implies a degree
of rigidity. In decentralized analytics approach, it deploys analytics experts into different business functions. Each unit creates and manages its own data

The Wireless Ecosystem Includes Mobile Carriers
Android Write Up
Alvin Cahyadi, Devyani Rana, Emmeline Tjong 1) The wireless ecosystem includes mobile carriers, software providers, chipset and handset
manufacturers, and application providers. They interlock to create a process where consumers purchase phones and subscribe to plans through mobile
carriers. Chipset and handset manufacturers integrate operating systems created by software providers into phones that are sold to these carriers.
Application developers then use the software as a platform to upload their creation for smartphone users.
This industry relies very heavily on the performance of each other, making each stakeholder complements to the other. As each part of the ecosystem
improves, it positively affects the industry as a whole. Mobile carriers gain revenues from intensive use of data, thus allowing carriers to capitalize on
the ARPU rather than selling phones at a high margin. As more smartphones are bought as bundles with carriers, chipset and handset manufacturers
would also directly benefit from the increase in data sales. Similarly, software providers and application developers would have the opportunity to
reach a large audience by integrating their creation into these devices. Thus, it is a cycle where the success of one would entail the success of another
in the ecosystem.
In 2008, Android released G1 and Nokia acquired Symbian with the hopes to release a similar open source software license. As explained above, these

Vision And Mission Statement : Nokia 's Vision
Task 3
Vision and Mission
It is important to understand the difference between vision and mission statement in order to understand whether Nokia's statements are aligned to the
need of its customers. Vision is a projection of what a company intends and what they might achieve in future (Constantin & Balanescu, 2008). A
company is considered as having a good vision if the vision is powerful, purposeful, emotional, concrete, self–determining and multi–faced (Bratianu,
2007).
On the other hand, mission statement is the reason why a company exists and it's a statement that declares the core purpose of a company. Mission
statement usually will remain the same over time (Bratianu, 2007). The mission is different from a vision as it aims to create competitive advantage
and also achieve the social goal of a company (Bratianu, 2007).
Nokia's vision is "Connecting People" (Nokia, 2013). And the company's mission statement is an elaboration of its vision:
"Connecting People. Our goal is to build great mobile products that enable billions of people worldwide to enjoy more of what life has to offer. Our
challenge is to achieve this in an increasingly dynamic and competitive environment" (Nokia, 2014)
From Nokia's vision and mission statement it can be inferred that Nokia wants to be known for its credibility and to be a market leader again as it was
before the year 2007 (Kess, 2014). Nokia understands that the company has to use innovation to offer products that are not yet

Technology Is Transforming The Retail Experience
NFC Technology is Transforming the Retail Experience I am a completely forgetful person. I am not proud to admit that, but the other day I was going
to grab lunch and while in the drive–thru at Wendy's, I had the ungodly fear of realizing after I ordered that I had left my wallet back at the office.
Embarrassed and strapped for any excuse that didn't sound pathetic, the employee at the drive–thru informed me I could pay for my lunch with my
smartphone. I had to download the My Wendy 's" app, which contained a virtual card synced to my checking account. The downloading and setting up
of the account was rather quick – although probably not as quick as the impatient people in line behind me would have liked – but the process was
painless. Unlike using a credit or debit card, which could easily be scanned by an unscrupulous employee, who could get access to my checking
account, the smartphone transaction is safe and my identity and checking account is protected. The Wave of the Future Targeting a younger generation,
who live and die by their cell phone, many retailers are jumping on the mobile payment bandwagon. Starbucks has been the leader in mobile payment
technology. According to Seattle–based coffee company's CEO, Howard Schultz, the Starbucks' app has accounted for 14 percent of all purchases.
This new technology is rapidly changing how we buy coffee, lunch and other items such as retail stores, pharmacies, gas stations and grocery stores.

Selected Solution to the Problem Stephen selected to fix the problem by selecting the Vertu Luxury Mobile Phone. The luxury mobile phone
department was new and growing very fast globally. With the new developments the luxury mobile phone market looked promising and attracted new
market entrants. For instance Mobiado, Gresso and GoldVish are brands that joined the new market (Kwong & Wong, 2012).
Implementation
Before the Ventu was released, which is a subsidiary of Nokia, Nokia launched its own entry level luxury phone the Nokia branded 8800 Series
with the price set at 1,075 Euros (US. $1,300) level (Kwong & Wong, 2011). On January 21, 2002, the very first Vertu was presented the Museum
of Modern Art in Paris (Kwong & Wong, 2011). In 2006 the special edition of Nokia 8800 series was introduced with Aston Martin, followed by the
24 karat gold plated version called the Nokia 8800 Series Sirocco Gold in 2007. In 2008 Nokia launched the Nokia 880 Carbon Arte. With these
introductions Nokia continued to empower Vertu to take the lead in the high end luxury mobile phone market.

Brief History Of The Nokia Company
Nokia has a long history of successful change and innovation, adapting to shifts in markets and technologies. From its humble beginning with one
paper mill, the company has participated in many sectors over time: cables, paper products, tires, rubber boots, consumer and industrial electronics,
plastics, chemicals, telecommunications infrastructure and more. Most recently, Nokia has been best known for its revolutionary wireless
communication technologies, which have connected billions of people through networks and mobile phones. The predecessors of the modern Nokia
were the Nokia Company, Finnish Rubber Works Ltd and Finnish Cable Works Ltd. The company's name came from the Nokia town and the
Nokianvirta river. Nokia Company's history started in 1865 when mining engineer Fredrik Idestam established a ground wood pulp mill on the banks
of the Tammerkoski rapids in the town of Tampere, in southwestern Finland. In 1868, Idestam built a second mill near the town of Nokia, fifteen
kilometers west of Tampere, by the Nokianvirta river, which had better hydropower resources. In 1871, Idestam, with the help of close friend and
statesman Leo Mechelin, renamed and transformed his firm into a share company, thereby founding Nokia Ab. The new Nokia Corporation had five

The twenty first century is filled with fast growing technological advancement, and as some liked to call it, a mobile technology age. The diversity of

  • 2. The Negative Effects Of Smartphones And Social Media In the world we live in today everyone is connected to one another through their smartphones and social media, Although this has had positive effect on the world i believe that the negative effects outweigh the positive effects. The extensive use of smartphones and social media have made it harder for students to gather and obtain information due to their dependence on technology to easily gather it for them. Studies have shown that the increased use of social media and smartphone have lead to mental health problem among teens. With everyone so worried about their facebooks and instagrams they haven't been able to learn how to properly socialize with other people. Smartphones and social media have negatively affected students ability to obtain information, alter their emotional stability, and negatively influence their social skills. Smartphones and social media have made gathering information difficult for people in living in the world because they rely on their smartphone and other technology to obtain the information the need for them. This has affected people's ability to read and absorb information from long articles or book where they actually have to take the time to read them. In his article Is Google Making Us Stupid? Nicholas Carr argues that the use of technology has made it harder for him to read books or other long articles stating " My mind would get caught up in the narrative or the turns of the argument, and i'd spend hours strolling through long stretches of prose. That's rarely the case anymore. Now my concentration often starts to drift after two or three pages" (Carr 314). This quote is talking about Nicholas Carr's inability to concentrate on long piece of writing like he used to be able too. Carr blames this on his use of technology stating "I think i know what's going on. For more than a decade now, i've been spending alot of time online, searching and surfing and sometimes adding to the great databases of the internet... Research that once required days in the stacks or periodical rooms of libraries can now be done in minutes" (Carr 314). Nicholas Carr states this to put into perspective that technology is reducing the time and concentration it takes to research information the one ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Nokia 's Marketing Strategy For Nokia Name of organization: NOKIA Project Scope: The main goal for Nokia is to recover its capitulated marketplace and return to its leadership position in the Smartphone market. The firm generally counts on the partnership alongside Microsoft, and on its Lumia smartphones to accomplish this goal. Nokia additionally selects a marketing strategy to apply for some of the Lumia phones in Europe. Specific contributors to the project failure: 1.The major contributor to the project failure is the competition, Nokia faces from Apple, Samsung and other smartphone companies. 2.Nokia has had troubles adapting to the marketplace changes. 3.Wrong implementation of marketing strategy and specific problems related to the positioning of the products has been one of the major factors for project failure. 4.Nokia launched an advertisement to market its new Lumia devices. The advert aimed to prop the firm's claim that the technology helped reduce blur, but afterwards from the video it became clear that it was filmed alongside a professional camera. This was truly a bad onset for Nokia's flagship device. The launch of the device was a very crucial moment for Nokia and this was a big mistake. Root cause of the contributing factor: 1.Apple entered with the launch of iPhone in the European smartphone market for the first time in November 2007.

Wearable tech incorporates gadgets that are integrated into everyone's daily life in the form of fashion. Whether the tech is the form of glasses (Google glass smart glass), a watch (Sony smart watch) or an earpiece (Hearables), the product must appeal to consumers through the functionality and form.

  • 10. Failure Of Nokia As it was stated in the introduction, with the smartphone revolution, Nokia failed to understand the future direction of mobile devices. This underestimation of the rising innovation, in terms of global market shares, led to a drastic decline – from 2007 to 2013, the company lost 45.2% of its market shares (Statista, 2014). It is worth mentioning, that in 2004, at Nokia's Espoo headquarters, researchers have presented a mobile phone prototype, which was able to connect to the internet and it was controlled by a touch–screen (O'Brien, 2010). However, Nokia's senior management had rejected the idea, stating that it would be an expensive failure to develop it. That allowed American and Asian companies to become leading companies, as they adopted a more innovative idea of the smartphone. Despite the fact that the company started to lose its market shares to competitors, Nokia tried to take the role as strategic innovator by ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... For instance, Nokia Networks recently revealed the programmable 5G architecture infrastructure which is able to adjust automatically radio access and core network resources by meeting the needs of different services (Nokia, 2015). Being innovative in the telecommunication industry means for Nokia competing in a fast developing and booming networking sector, which generates most of the company's revenue. Chaudhuri (2015) believes, that in Nokia's case, presence in telecommunication industry is more profitable than mobile handsets manufacturing. This strategy shift may allow the company to win the game by redefining market orientation. To support this example, the author uses the Ericsson case, which illustrates the company's decision to sell its handset business to Sony, after it lost its ability to compete with other manufacturers.

Till 2007, Nokia had a market share of 80% in the smartphone market, and the main reason for losing ground during the "second coming of the smartphone age" was due to the weak position of Nokia in the "technological system" (or ecosystem). Nokia failed in connection to people!! Reason for Nokia failure is on one side that Apple redefined smart phones with touch screen and Blackberry with email, and on the other side, Android proved that software matters more than hardware. Nokia was slow to respond to these trends. In 2008, brands like Samsung, HTC, and Sony found roots to extend their market. Samsung's Android phones are user friendly and budget friendly too.

It needs to make technological innovations which will essentially and effectively differentiate its products and other models from those of other companies. These innovations should help Nokia stand out from its adversaries and should at the same capture the required attention of the potential buyers in the market of smart phones in India. Nokia should start keeping up with the latest trends and accordingly should enter into the current era of wearable devices like the smart watches and bands that Samsung and Sony are coming up with. It also needs to focus on the overall look of the product as it tends to influence the buyer's judgement a lot. Conclusion So, what can we learn from this unexpected incident of Nokia? It's simple. Any organization either a high profile one or an SMB, besides growing up in technology domain should make their own way in public domain. How?

Ovi not as successful as predicted, as the iOS and Android market share continued to increase. Nokia focused on the Symbian for far too long, a platform established since 2002. Operating systems became an important factor for the success of manufactures as customer demand shifted towards new features and application.

Working principle of this type of display is Laser diode like coherent sources will help the VRD to give a diffracted limited spot on retina. Here photon source acts as the Intensity Modulator. It is actually done to match the intensity of the image produced. The next step after Intensity Modulation is Beam Scanning. It constantly keeps the image pixels on the retina. In scanning there are two modes. They are Rester and Vector mode. Both the scanning takes place. The next step of scanning is projecting the image to the retina. To synchronize scan and modulate the coming video signals drive electronic is applied. Synchronization is done in order to stabilize the images. One of the best example is google glasses. Its architecture consist of paire of glasses on either eyes with block of glasses which allows us to view augmented reality. Image text or information can be displayed right in the front of our eyes. This type of display is yet in its beginning stage. Slight variations are made to make it more advanced to bring comfort to man.

Due to the underestimate of the smartphone business, Nokia started to lose its market share and then it failed in the competition of smartphones. After several years flounder, Nokia's mobile phone business was acquired by using 7.9 billion dollars by Microsoft in 2013. At that time, Nokia's market share fell to 2.8% (Pearce, 2016). Nokia taught a lesson which is opportunity knocks once, and the neighbors do the rest of the time. As a firm, right decisions should be made at the right time in order to catch the opportunity. Nokia made wrong decisions while it was facing the opportunity, so it declined year by year. When Nokia missed the best time for transformation, its day had gone even though it had some right moves. Therefore, Nokia has been becoming a negative example for other firms. What are good decisions and bad decisions? Good decisions will lead to good outcomes (Spetzler, 2016). In contrast, bad decisions will cause bad outcomes. Therefore, decision–making is important for a company as they will generally affect the result of the company. In other words, the company can either profit or loss depend on what kind of decisions are made. Nokia made some bad decisions, so it reached a bad outcome.

Centralized or Decentralized data analytics In centralized analytics, the data and the talent to provide analytical expertise are in one group.

The advantage of making the data analytics team centralized is that reporting across all the business units is standardized. The data governance policies are enforced significantly. It provides uniformity in the metrics across the organization there by building the confidence of other divisions using them alongside their data knowing that the whole organization is on the same page.

  • 25. The Wireless Ecosystem Includes Mobile Carriers Android Write Up Alvin Cahyadi, Devyani Rana, Emmeline Tjong 1) The wireless ecosystem includes mobile carriers, software providers, chipset and handset manufacturers, and application providers. They interlock to create a process where consumers purchase phones and subscribe to plans through mobile carriers. Chipset and handset manufacturers integrate operating systems created by software providers into phones that are sold to these carriers. Application developers then use the software as a platform to upload their creation for smartphone users. This industry relies very heavily on the performance of each other, making each stakeholder complements to the other. As each part of the ecosystem improves, it positively affects the industry as a whole. Mobile carriers gain revenues from intensive use of data, thus allowing carriers to capitalize on the ARPU rather than selling phones at a high margin. As more smartphones are bought as bundles with carriers, chipset and handset manufacturers would also directly benefit from the increase in data sales. Similarly, software providers and application developers would have the opportunity to reach a large audience by integrating their creation into these devices. Thus, it is a cycle where the success of one would entail the success of another in the ecosystem. In 2008, Android released G1 and Nokia acquired Symbian with the hopes to release a similar open source software license. As explained above, these would impact the ecosystem ...

  • 27. Vision And Mission Statement : Nokia 's Vision Task 3 Vision and Mission It is important to understand the difference between vision and mission statement in order to understand whether Nokia's statements are aligned to the need of its customers. Vision is a projection of what a company intends and what they might achieve in future (Constantin & Balanescu, 2008). A company is considered as having a good vision if the vision is powerful, purposeful, emotional, concrete, self–determining and multi–faced (Bratianu, 2007). On the other hand, mission statement is the reason why a company exists and it's a statement that declares the core purpose of a company. Mission statement usually will remain the same over time (Bratianu, 2007). The mission is different from a vision as it aims to create competitive advantage and also achieve the social goal of a company (Bratianu, 2007). Nokia's vision is "Connecting People" (Nokia, 2013). And the company's mission statement is an elaboration of its vision: "Connecting People. Our goal is to build great mobile products that enable billions of people worldwide to enjoy more of what life has to offer. Our challenge is to achieve this in an increasingly dynamic and competitive environment" (Nokia, 2014) From Nokia's vision and mission statement it can be inferred that Nokia wants to be known for its credibility and to be a market leader again as it was before the year 2007 (Kess, 2014).
