2. INTRODUCTION
• Mobile Computing is a technology that allows transmission of data, voice
and video via a computer or any other wireless enabled device without
having to be connected to a fixed physical link.
• Mobile computing involves
 Mobile communication,
 Mobile hardware, and
 Mobile software.

3. FACTS OF MOBILE COMPUTING
• The number of worldwide business consumer mobile
users will increase to 6.2 billion by the end of 2018
• The number of devices will grow from 7.7 billion in
2014 to 12.1 billion by the conclusion of 2018.
• The mobile IM Market will grow to more than 3.8
billion accounts by the end of 2018

4. MOBILE COMPUTING DEVICES
• Mobile computing is not only restricted to computers and
mobile devices but there is a significant development in the
wearables and augmented reality.
• A carputer is installed in an automobile. It operates as a
wireless computer, sound system, GPS, and DVD player. It
also contains word processing software and is Bluetooth
compatible.
• A Pentop is a computing device with the size and shape of a
pen. It functions as a writing utensil, MP3 player, language
translator, digital storage device.

5. EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES
• Bluetooth
• Radio Frequency Identification
• WiMAX
• Mobile IP

6. BLUETOOTH
• Bluetooth allows users to make an ad hoc
connections between devices like mobile phones and
computer devices wirelessly.
• Built into a small microchip which transfers data
within 50 meters through walls, clothing or even
luggage bags.
• Operates in a globally available frequency band
ensuring worldwide interoperability.
• APPLICATIONS: File transfer, Internet bridge, LAN
Access, Synchronization and Headset.

7. RADIO FREQUENCY
IDENTIFICATION(RFID)
• Radio-frequency identification uses electromagnetic
fields to automatically identify and track tags
attached to objects.
• The tags contain electronically stored information.
• Passive tags collect energy from a nearby RFID
reader's interrogating radio waves.
• Active tags have a local power source such as a
battery and may operate at hundreds of meters
from the RFID reader
• Unlike a barcode, the tag need not be within the line
of sight of the reader.

8. WIMAX
• WiMAX- Worldwide Interoperability for
Microwave Access.
• It is a family of wireless communication
standards based on the IEEE 802.16 sets of
standards.
• Provides network access to buildings
through exterior antennas communicating
with radio base stations.
• Mobile WiMAX are replacement for cellular
phone technologies like GSM and CDMA.
• It can cover a range of up to 40 miles.

9. MOBILE IP
• It is a standard communications protocol that is designed to allow mobile
device users to move from one network to another while maintaining a
permanent IP address.
• It is designed to support seamless
and continuous internet connectivity.
• The mobile IP is transmitted in
packets.
• There is no limitation with the
geographical locations.

10. BUSINESS APPLICATIONS OF
MOBLIE COMPUTING
• HELPING BUSINESS ECONOMIC CHALLENGES:
reducing cost of regional offices and get staff to
work from home by allowing mobile computing.
• MEET CHALLENGES OF ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUE:
in any disruption due to environmental cause,
with mobile computing there will be a flexible
work pattern.
• BUSINESS INICIATIVES: supporting mobility of
customers, suppliers and employees

11. TURNING THE BUSINESS VALUES
• New connected screens are providing users pervasive access to services that are
enabling new modes of working
• Meetings are evolving, and boardrooms are now becoming more dynamic and
efficient as real time collaboration technologies evolve, enabled by personal
screens and communal screens
• Employees are spreading their working time across multiple devices, not just
relying on a PC to get their job done.

12. ADVANTAGES OF MOBLIE COMPUTING
• Increase in Productivity- Mobile devices can be used out
in the field of various companies, therefore reducing
the time and cost for clients and themselves.
• Portability- not restricted to one location in order to
jobs done or even access email on the go
• Entertainment- Mobile devices can be used for
entertainment purposes, for personal and even for
presentations to people and clients.

13. DISADVANTAGES OF MOBLIE
COMPUTING
• Quality of connectivity
• Security concerns
• Power Consumption
• Decreasing human interaction
