  1. Handset<->Desktop Convergence Jon Crowcroft, http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~jac22

  2. Outline - Compare&Contrast • H/W platforms • S/W platforms • Applications & Development • Service Architecture • Usage & Abusage • Cost/Performance/Future

  3. Android G2 Hero 600Mhz n core ARM 1G mem, nG SD Quad, HSPC,WiFi,BT USB GPS, Accelerometer Compass Sensors… Intel x86 3GHz 1-2G, 30-150G store GigE, WiFi USB H/W platforms

  4. Linux, OSX,Windows Mobile 6 (Symbian, X,Y,Z?) Java, Obj C, C# Web 2.0 Eclipse Linux, MacOs, Windows 7 C/Java, Obj C, C# Client/Server Web 2.0 Eclipse S/W platforms

  5. Browser (chrome, firefox, ie, safari etc) Web 2.0 (social net + location+context,+secure id, plus, cameras:) Sqlite Server (but almost certainly Natted) Music/film/infotainment Browser(ditto) Web 2.0 (social net, amazon, flickr) Database (well, modest) Server (but prob. Natted) Documenting (hard to do without kb) CAD/Graphics Design Film/Music post production Applications & Development

  6. ID/Personality/ Thinnish Client + Cloud SIM and Cellular Service provider permits secure ID and micropayment Anonymous (hot desk) or Office based desktop Can have thin client Client/server or Cloud Very little proof of ID except maybe xDSL subscriber line Service Architecture

  7. Dataplans inclusive (except roaming) To date, lockin prevents malware Changing fast No different in solution space to desktop Corporate free, home use may be rate/volume capped Massive problems with worm/virus/adware botnets etc etc Expensive Solutions Usage & Abusage

  8. Advert or location or charge for use of some service pays Future device may “dock” with kb/display-> no need for desktop or laptop 18 month recycle Subscription or advert or pay-per-use pays Future device may be more games console (GPU and net speed/latency special) 3 year recycle Cost/Performance/Future

  9. Convergence Done. • Problems will multiply • Super-linearly with value • Opportunities will multiply • Linearly as incumbents loosen grip • Q&A
