Information Technology and Mobile Computing Master Program of Information Technology (MTI) Gadjah Mada University Teguh Bharata Adji, ST, MT, M.Eng.
Topics to Discuss • What is IT ? • IT Aplications • Aspects to be Considered • Mobile Computing : One of the Trends • Mobile SCADA : Our Opportunity • Software Examples • Impacts & Discussion
What is IT ? • Information • The meaning given to data by the way in which it is interpreted • Data • A series of observations, measurements, or facts • Technology • The application of practical or mechanical sciences to industry or commerce
What is IT ? • IT • The technology of the production, storage, and communication of information using computer, and microelectronics • IT involves • Search and retrieval • Transformation • Storage • Organization • Dissemination
IT Applications • What is an e-application? • A network-based computer application that is designed to handle activities in our parallel world • Running in a network environment • To be able to handle virtual activities, it has to capture the characteristics of the world it represents
Examples • E-government • Making government more responsive and effective • to inform parliament or governmental procedures • E-commerce • E-shopping • E-banking • E-learning • E-news/E-mail/chatting/e-wife ?
How to implement IT ? Aspects to be considered: • Human aspect • Business aspect • Technical aspect
Aspects to be Considered • Human aspect • Psychological aspect • Skill aspect
Skill is not Enough Knowledge (what to do, why) HABIT Skill (how to do) Desire (want to do)
Aspects to be Considered • Business aspect • Economical aspect • Organizational Behavior Aspect • Technical aspect • Hardware • Software
Mobile Computing • Mobile Computing • a form of wireless networking that uses common carrier frequencies to permit networked devices to be moved freely within the broadcast coverage area • Mobile SCADA : Our Opportunity • the use of SCADA with the mobile phone network being used as communication medium • SCADA is a system where both data acquisition and supervisory control are performed
Mobile SCADA Application Schema Figure 3: Data flow to/from a remote sensor network (Taylor, 2003)
Application Examples • Smart House • as TV/refrigerator remote controller • home alarm system • Smart Dust => wireless sensor network • with built in computer chip, radio transmitter and sensor • for vibration, heat or gas sensor • As Robot Controller • SMS Banking/Polling
Impacts • Economy/Technology • efficient & cheap • Society • communication behavior ( young G ? ) • peoples interaction • Politics • One federation ? One rule ? No boundaries ? • Free Trade will take place ?
