The document discusses wireless power and networking technologies. It describes how wireless power could be used to recharge devices through pads or panels in roads. It also explains that Wi-Fi currently uses microwaves but future technologies may use terahertz radiation, allowing internet speeds 1000 times faster. The biggest advantage is said to be simplification of the design process by eliminating cords and outlets through wireless power strips.

1.  NatAbel, Ben Roush, Marcus Stevenson &
India Gordon

2.  Advantages:
• Less expensive
• Increased flexibility
• Easier to install

3.  Recharging Pads
• Laptops
• Cell phones
• iPod’s and iPad’s
• Handheld game devices
and many more
 Uses in transportation
• Recharging panels in roads

4.  Wi-Fi today
• Operates off microwaves
 2.4 GHz
• Operate off terahertz radiation
 Typically between 100 GB and 10 THz
 More data on airwaves
 A 2.4 THz wave would make internet 1000x faster

5.  Biggest Advantage
• Simplification of the design process
 Everything
runs off a wireless
monitor/power strip
• No more messy cords
• No more electrical outlets

6.  Used for sharing resources
 Connects to others LANs, WANs, or
Internet
 Built with Ethernet cables and hubs
 Have more than 2, but can contain
thousands

7.  Groups of different LANs that
communicate virtually
 Perform better than LANs
 Use an additional server to broadcast

8.  Bigger than LANs and VLANs
 Uses backbone technology to connect
LANs
 Provides up-link services to WANs

9.  Covers a large geographic area
 Connect LANs and MANs
 Implement packet-switching and circuit
switching techniques
 Built using leased lines

10.  What is cloud computing?
• “Cloud computing is the delivery of computing as
a service rather than a product, whereby shared
resources, software, and information are provided
to computers and other devices as a utility over a
network.”

12.  Will hardware be eliminated?
• Hybrid between cloud and PC
• Applications bought and run off cloud
 Pay-per-use
• Current: Pay per megabyte used or time spent on
virtual machine
• Future: Tiered service (Ex. Cell phone plans)
 Security
• Data duplication

13.  More intelligence
 Better bandwidth
• Accepts more types of multimedia
 Ex. 3D- Video Sharing, Video monitoring etc
 Mainly Cloud based
