Measuring and Reducing Energy Consumption of Network Interfaces in Hand-Held Devices

by Mark Stemm, Randy H. Katz , 1997
"... Next generation hand-held devices must provide seamless connectivity while obeying stringent power and size constrains. In this paper we examine this issue from the point of view of the Network Interface (NI). We measure the power usage of two PDAs, the Apple Newton Messagepad and Sony Magic Link, a ..."

Reducing Power Consumption of Network Interfaces in Hand-Held Devices (Extended Abstract)

by Mark Stemm, Paul Gauthier, Daishi Harada, Randy H. Katz , 1996
"... An important issue to be addressed for the next generation of wirelessly-connected hand-held devices is battery longevity. In this paper we examine this issue from the point of view of the Network Interface (NI). In particular, we measure the power usage of two PDAs, the Apple Newton Messagepad and ..."

Hand-held Computers in Health Care: What Software Programs are Available?

by Wayne Gillingham, Alec Holt, John Gillies - N Z Med J , 2002
"... The technology sector of healthcare is entering a new evolutionary phase. The medical community has an obligation to the public to provide the safest, most effective healthcare possible. This is more achievable with the use of computer technology at the point of care, and small, portable devices cou ..."

to the point where these devices will have their position on a physician's desk next to their stethoscope. Once this electronic evolution occurs, the practice of medicine will change. Doctors will be able to practice medicine with greater ease and safety. In our opinion, the new generation of PDA mobile

An Empirical study of clock skew behavior in modern mobile and hand-held devices.

by Swati Sharma, Huzur Saran, Sorav Bansal
"... Abstract—Host identification, today, can be done at many layers of the network protocol stack depending on the identifiable parameter used for classification. But, these generally include fields from TCP/IP/MAC packets; that can be spoofed or manip-ulated very easily to misguide the identification p ..."

host, among other applications. It is resistant to the earlier mentioned methods of spoofing, as clock information is very specific to the oscillator that generates it. We provide a simplification into the measurement technique of an already investigated approach of remote identification, to achieve

Second-Generation Hand-Held Force Magnifier for Surgical Instruments

by Y Lee, George Stetten, Vikas Shivaprabhu, Roberta Klatzky, John Galeotti, Samantha Horvath, Mel Siegel, Joel S. Schuman, Ralph Hollis
"... Abstract. We have developed a novel and relatively simple method for magnifying forces perceived by an operator using a surgical tool. A sensor measures force between the tip of a tool and its handle, and a proportionally greater force is created by an actuator between the handle and a brace attache ..."

attached to the operator’s hand, providing an enhanced perception of forces at the tip of the tool. Magnifying forces in this manner may provide an improved ability to perform delicate surgical procedures. The device is completely hand-held and can thus be easily manipulated to a wide variety of locations

Safety of Screening Procedures With Hand-Held Metal Detectors Among Patients With Implanted Cardiac Rhythm Devices

by A Cross-sectional Analysis
"... Background: Case reports suggest that the hand-held metal detec-tors used for security screening generate electromagnetic fields that may interfere with pacemaker and implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) function. Objective: To assess changes in function of pacemakers and ICDs after exposure ..."

Next Generation Mobile Devices

by G Venkatesh
"... The mobile phone is already becoming the most ubiquitous digital device across the world, and promises to reach two thirds of the world population by the end of this decade. We saw the rapid growth of PCs in the last decade, with PCs-in-use growing at over ..."

INSERTION DEVICES OF NEXT GENERATION

by unknown authors
"... One direction of the recent insertion device develop-ment is the pursuit of short periodicity. After the advent of in-vacuum undulators, short period undulators have been widely used at small gaps in many synchrotron radiation fa-cilities. In order to pursue shorter periodicity, however, fur-ther im ..."

Mobile phones for the next generation: Device designs for teenagers

by Sara Berg, Alex S. Taylor, Richard Harper - In Proceedings ACM SIGCHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems , 2003
"... In this paper, we demonstrate how ethnographic fieldwork studies can be used to inform the design of third generation mobile phones. We draw on a field study of teenage mobile phone users and, specifically, their participation in gift-giving practices to design the user interface and form of a conce ..."
