JavaOne 2015 - CON6489 - Smart Open Spaces Powered by Low Cost ComputersJorge Hidalgo
By Jorge Hidalgo & Julio Palma. San Francisco Oct 27th, 2015.
Single-board computers such as the Raspberry Pi are cheap, small, and cute, but they have also shown that they are powerful enough to drive interesting ideas at a fraction of the cost of other, more “traditional” hardware solutions. This session covers how Java ME and Java SE technologies can power solutions for managing open spaces (such as museums, department stores, hypermarkets, airports, train stations, and offices) in a cost-effective manner. Combining Java, the Raspberry Pi, and Bluetooth LE and other sensors makes it easy to build a platform to track personal devices as they are carried through an area and analyze movement patterns, hot zones, and real-time 3-D information to help drive better visitor/customer/user interactions.

The document discusses trends in mobile application development. It notes that mobile development is moving towards centralized app portals like Google Play and the App Store, as well as more open technologies. This has implications for developers. Centralized portals allow developers to reach more customers through a single store, while open platforms reduce costs and increase potential users. However, developers must choose platforms wisely based on market size, accessibility, career opportunities, and creative freedom. The trends present both opportunities and threats for developers in the changing mobile landscape.

Evolution of the Telco Services Plane, Greg Sikora, TADSummit 2018Alan Quayle
Evolution of the Telco Services Plane
Greg Sikora, Business Development OVOO
Over the past decade the number of telecom service providers has exploded with IP-based telecom services, CPaaS / UCaaS / CCaaS providers, enterprises running their telecom services, xVNOs, etc.
All these new players have brought new skills and new approaches to the creation of telecom services, and belatedly telcos are now adopting new approaches for their Telco Services Plane.
Given our experiences across a range of service providers we’ll describe the evolution of the Telco Services Plane to support new capabilities both within and without the network. Let innovation flourish!
iTel Mobile Dialer is a SIP Softphone which allows VoIP service providers offer all the advanced VoIP calling features to their customers for making long distance VoIP calls from mobile phones. Compatible with all standard SIP Softswitch, this mobile dialer woks in Android, IOS, Windows and Symbian platforms while supporting audio and video call with Instant Messaging (IM). Being a VoIP Service Provider, you can run this softphone under your own brand name and also fully customize according to your diverse business needs.

On 9 October 2019, a webinar on the Fundamental Elements Call “Enhanced GNSS Receiver/User Terminal” was held to provide applicants with additional details on the proposal preparation.
The document discusses the regulatory perspective on adopting GNSS (global navigation satellite systems) in rail systems. It notes that rail needs to innovate to remain competitive and that GNSS can help decrease costs and increase efficiency by providing train positioning without the need for trackside infrastructure. However, it also discusses technical challenges for GNSS in rail like signal interference and obscured signals. The document emphasizes that innovation and interoperability are not contradictory in rail, and that a compatible evolution of onboard systems is needed while ensuring safety throughout the innovation process.
The document summarizes a project by Rail Cargo Group to outfit rail cargo wagons with GPS and Galileo devices by the end of 2020, calling the wagons "smart things." The first GPS device was mounted on March 15, 2019. An IoT platform will integrate location data to enable use cases like tracking cargo locations, optimizing maintenance schedules, and providing customers with more information. Improving positioning accuracy in challenging rail environments can help boost efficiency in rail logistics.
The document discusses digital mapping and tracking technologies for rail transport. It describes how detailed digital maps of railways can help enforce safety rules and how tracking assets digitally can alert authorities if anything exits unauthorized. It also discusses how movement and coupling optimization can minimize accident risks and costs through predictive maintenance and automated train driving. The technologies aim to remove human error from logistics operations and reduce rail incident risks.
The document discusses coordinating R&D efforts towards including European GNSS signals within ERTMS rail signalling to: 1) satisfy end users by providing an interoperable and stable solution; 2) reduce ERTMS capital and operational costs; and 3) improve flexibility and attractiveness of ERTMS. It also describes gathering user requirements to feed into Galileo and EGNOS evolutions and promoting the use of E-GNSS for non-safety applications like cargo tracking and predictive maintenance.
The document discusses antitrust guidelines for a meeting between rail industry competitors on the X2Rail-2 and other Shift2Rail projects. It notes that while some collaboration is legal and beneficial, agreements between competitors that restrict competition are prohibited. It provides guidance on avoiding inappropriate topics of discussion like prices, production levels, customer relationships, costs and other sensitive business information.

This document summarizes a system suitability study called STEMS that assessed the use of GNSS (global navigation satellite systems) for train positioning in the European Rail Traffic Management System (ERTMS). The study was led by NSL and aimed to: (1) review requirements for virtual balise detection using GNSS in ERTMS; (2) assess the suitability of current SBAS (satellite-based augmentation systems) for ERTMS with virtual balise detection; and (3) propose a methodology for a safety case for SBAS use in ERTMS virtual balise applications. The study found that SBAS can provide fault detection and improved accuracy for train positioning compared to GNSS alone.
The document describes the SIA project which aims to develop four new services to provide prognostic health information for railway assets. The services will integrate sensors on vehicles to monitor wheel-rail and pantograph-catenary interaction, a data hub for positioning and communications, degradation models, and a visualization platform. This will allow early detection of issues like wheel flats or broken rails to support maintenance planning by infrastructure managers and train operating companies.
The ERSAT project aims to develop and certify an ERTMS solution using GNSS technology for low-density rail lines in Italy. The goals are to reduce maintenance costs by 30% by replacing older signaling systems with ERTMS, and deploy ERTMS nationwide by 2035. ERSAT has developed and tested satellite-based ERTMS technologies and defined a 2017-2023 master plan to activate a first commercial line by 2020 using public augmentation services, upgrade an existing line, and standardize solutions through European cooperation. Certification guidelines have been established and experts are involved to certify the satellite-based ERTMS solution for commercial operations.
The STARS project aimed to characterize railway environments to allow full implementation of GNSS in safety critical rail applications. It developed a methodology for field measurements, conducted an unprecedented measurement campaign at diverse locations, and created tools to analyze environmental factors impacting GNSS performance. The project also investigated economic impacts, ERTMS requirements, and the potential for evolved EGNOS services to fully support safety critical rail applications. STARS provided conclusions and recommendations to support further GNSS development in rail.

The port of Marseille Fos handled 81 million tons of cargo in 2017 and is a major economic engine for the local region, generating 3.5 billion euros in added value and over 41,500 port jobs. The port has initiated the Brain Port Community, a collaborative project between academic and industry partners, to promote digital transformation and create new opportunities in the port and logistics sector through innovation. The Brain Port Community focuses on projects in areas like automation, big data, logistics, energy, and the environment to make the port more intelligent, efficient, green and innovative.
