The Securities and Insecurities of Wireless Networks Today
Everyone is looking for a way to make things easier and more convenient, especially when it comes to technology. Everything that was once new and revolutionary became old and drab because it was stuck in one place due to wires. When laptop computers became smaller and more portable, the need for wireless connectivity became blatantly obvious. Having a wired connection does not allow us to keep up with the fast-paced society that we live in today. Around the early 1990’s, teams of engineers greatly expanded our options for portable technology. “Wireless technologies are without any doubt shaping the beginning of the new millennium. The principal of computing any time, anywhere, is becoming reality.”
Around 1991, “Wi-Fi” or “Wireless Fidelity” was invented by Vic Hayes of Lucent and Agere Systems in the Netherlands. Its initial design was meant for cashier systems and the first products on the market were called “WaveLAN.” This first attempt at wireless only supported speeds of 1 Mb/s to 2 Mb/s. In the past 15 years, things have definitely come a long way. The speeds have increased dramatically from their initial design and have given the world of wireless technology infinite possibilities. |

Home Wireless Networking in a Snap Mar 2006
These days, nobody really wants to learn everything there is about their hardware and software. And even if you did, who has the time to endlessly tinker and play with it until you figure everything out? You just want a book that will quickly show you how to set up your home wireless network. Home Wireless Networking in a Snap is designed specifically for busy people like you.
This book covers the things that aren't already covered in the documentation that came with your equipment and the things you can't just figure out on your own. It is organized into a series of well-organized, bite-sized, quickly accomplished tasks, that lets you zero right in on particular tasks you want to accomplish. This hands-on approach to setting-up a secure home wireless network will have your network up and running in no time. |

Technologies for the Wireless Future June 2006
Technologies for the Wireless Future, the result of pioneering cooperative work of many academic and industrial researchers from WWRF, provides a wide picture of the research challenges for the future wireless world. Despite much emphasis on hard technology, the user is certainly not forgotten as this book provides an all-encompassing treatment of future wireless technologies ranging from user centred design processes and I-centric communications to end-to-end econfigurability and short-range wireless networks. The content will have a wide-ranging appeal to engineers, researchers, managers and students with interest on future of wireless.
An important publication that highlights the significance of WWRF to the wireless industry. Rarely has one publication covered the whole spectrum of future wireless technologies from human sciences to radio interface technologies, highlighting the research work done both in academic and the business worlds. Tero Ojanper #228;, Senior Vice President, Head of Nokia Research Center
Provides an excellent overview about the future development of mobile and wireless communication. Starting from a user centric approach and the service infrastructure, a reference model and roadmaps are being built up. This book presents useful and necessary information to all, who are involved in research and development, strategy and standardisation activities towards future systems. Anton Schaaf, CTO and Member of the executive board Siemens COM
The WWRF should be commended for taking an approach that defines technology requirements from a user perspective. This publication makes an important contribution to defining the technologies that will be most relevant to future wireless communications. Padmasree Warrior, Senior Vice President, Chief Technology Officer Motorola |
