Ubiq Mobile development environment includes set of server-side APIs for development of distributed applications and set of standardized clients for supported mobile platforms.
On wireless evolution edge
The training session gives an overview of the latest 3G and 4G developments and trends in 3GPP. Paradigm of being always connected is starting to be reality in industrial countries but the trend is also emerging in developing countries such as India where 3G licenses were auctioned during 2010. Word-wide forecast for the amount of mobile data by the year 2014 is tenfold when compared to the current situation. This increased demand and growing requirements for mobile communications technologies sets wide range of challenges to be covered by network and device vendors as well as operators.
