The survey of over 400 mobile industry professionals explored technical issues, policies, and their impact on the industry. Respondents wanted more information on device performance and control over applications. Fragmented APIs were seen as a major barrier to application development. There was no consensus on whether the browser is currently the main application environment, but most agreed it will be in 1-3 years if standards-based interfaces and support for markup languages and push data are adopted.

BlackBerry Enterprise of Things presentation - Gartner IT ExpoBlackBerry
BlackBerry secures, connects, and mobilizes the enterprise by connecting people, devices, processes, and systems to fully realize a secure “Enterprise of Things.” BlackBerry is no longer about the smartphone, but the smart in the phone and in cars and containers, medical devices and wearables, consumer appliances and industrial machinery, and ultimately the entire enterprise. BlackBerry software secures the Enterprise of Things.
BlackBerry Is Back: Strategy and Product Updates Point the Way ForwardBlackBerry
451 Research report evaluates BlackBerry's turnaround from a device manufacturer into an enterprise software and security business under John Chen's leadership.
451 Research's conclusions include:
-- "Under CEO John Chen, BlackBerry has significantly improved its financial position and product focus."
-- "Almost every product in BlackBerry's bag of tricks directly or by extension is addressing the challenges of managing a diverse set of IoT devices."
-- "BlackBerry is very competitive in security, has a formidable leadership team, improving financials and some strong assets thoughtfully acquired, which in turn opens up new white space for it to attack."
-- "QNX is perhaps BlackBerry's most exciting IoT play because of its deployed footprint in embedded-computing markets and automotive. BlackBerry's strategy in connected cars is to aggressively expand beyond its deployed footprint in in-vehicle infotainment into adjacent areas like telematics, advanced driver assistance systems,
gateways and cockpit domain controllers."

Ericsson ConsumerLab: Smartphone Usage Experience ReportEricsson
For more from the ConsumerLab visit: http://www.ericsson.com/thinkingahead/consumerlab
Having access to an internet connection has become an integrated part of everyday life. Each day, around 40 percent of smartphone owners use their smartphones before they have
even got out of bed. On the morning commute, data usage peaks at nearly 70 percent and remains high throughout the day, with users accessing the network in short and frequent bursts.
For the purpose of this report, Ericsson ConsumerLab conducted surveys across Finland, Switzerland and the Netherlands. Consumers were asked to discuss their
perception of network quality, including current satisfaction levels and common problems encountered. from this, it was possible to assess the potential impact for operators. The findings compare feedback from 3,000 smartphone users who took part in an online survey alongside the experiences of a further 500 smartphone users. These 500 users were provided with a tailor made app with which to log the nature and frequency of any issues encountered – and their reactions to these issues.
Smartphone is one of the important assets of today’s generation it makes people more responsive, productive and effective in work and in personal dealings. Remarkably it is used as the primary repository of individual confidential files because of its portability and reliability which provide a scheme to smartphone companies to embed security features and users install security application freely available in the market. In most various studies, facial recognition marked the highest security features. So, this study aims to develop a facial recognition application specifically for an android phone using a local binary histogram algorithm and V-Model to process the development of the application. Furthermore, this application is tested and evaluated by the experts with a score of 4.59 weighted mean “Excellent” based on its functionality, reliability, usability, efficiency and portability.

Economic Value Validation: Aerohive Controller-less Wireless Architecture, by...Aerohive Networks
Mobility has not only changed how we live, it is also dramatically changing the network infrastructures that we rely on. As organizations cope with a tidal wave of mobile users, mobile applications, and demand for pervasive access, it’s becoming clearer that prior-generation approaches to providing mobility (controller-based) are breaking. Beyond providing the requisite performance and scale that mobility demands, the scenarios illustrated in this paper give a comprehensive overview of the clear economic justification for controller-less architectures and Aerohive in particular have over legacy controller environments.

The future of Content management when the mobile Broadcasts Intent Tony Fish
Mobile has many advantages and new ones keep appearing. Given that the mobile is available at the point of inspiration we have learnt to capture content and share it……
The mobile is also available at our point of need.
The market structure today for need is based on the ability to deliver relevant search based on context but this is being challenged by intent. Aka CMS and CRM
Intent is where the user is in control.
The user broadcasts what they need and local providers bid to meet the need. This is a significant change that will find it place and it will affect how companies offer and deliver services.
The expectation is that the speaker stands at the front and therefore how do feel when that rule of expectation is broken?
Something you expected to happen; has not….. And this is the theme we are going to explore now. When does broken expectation become strange, odd, unusual or creepy….espically in relation to your identity and data. And how quickly do you become comfortable with the new format. My bet is slide 3
