“…Besides person-to-person messaging, MMS can be used for messaging with a value added service provider (VASP) to download and upload multimedia content}known as content-to-person and person-to-service messaging, respectively. MMS is analysed from different aspects in a number of publications [7,[15][16][17][18]. Standardization bodies WAP Forum (consolidated to OMA in 2002) and 3GPP started defining MMS in 1998.…”

SUMMARYThe prospects of multimedia in mobile communication depend largely on effective design of interactive multimedia applications now. Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS) and streaming are two potential multimedia applications for mobile communication. Though MMS has many advantages, a limitation is noted in MMS}an inability to handle a message requiring more space than available in a mobile terminal, as the message must be fully retrieved and stored before its presentation. Moreover, a large message can keep a recipient user waiting long for its retrieval before it is presented, causing poor user-experience. This paper proposes a new implementation solution for the interworking between MMS and streaming to overcome the limitation. The new solution is consistent with the existing frameworks and working principles of both MMS and streaming. The new solution is compared with the previous solutions, indicating that it has considerable advantages. This paper also presents general network architecture, providing various architectural options, to accommodate the interworking in different situations. The architecture considers many practical cases, like person-to-person messaging, messaging involving content providers and multiple network operators, load balancing and scalability in related network servers, operational agreement between a content provider and a network operator, and using existing network infrastructure for the interworking.

Electrocardiograms can be used for diagnosing various cardiac conditions. They are traditionally printed as a hard copy on thermal graph paper, which a clinician c a n then use to support the overall diagnosis. Nevertheless, as technology evolves aspects of healthcare are embracing these technological advancements. One such technology that is being accepted is the Smartphone. Lightweight, portable and with impressive processing speed, smartphones are becoming a familiar sight within healthcare, and used not only for the purposes of making phone calls. There are many healthcare applications available which are already proving popular amongst clinicians and patients, such as WebMD, Trusted Health and Wellness Information as well as First Aid -Emergency Handbook. Additionally, with a range of five to twelve megapixel camera as standard, images can be taken and details can be presented in ways previously not thought possible. This paper reports upon the motivations of using a smartphone within healthcare and describes the findings of having fifteen electrocardiograms diagnoses using an Apple iPhone by a clinician.

La autogestión de servicios en el sector de la telefonía celular

La autogestión permite a los clientes acceder a la información y realizar consultas u operaciones de su servicio, sin requerir ninguna interacción con un representante de una empresa. Los clientes tienen el control y pueden resolver las consultas y/o problemas de su servicio rápidamente por sí mismos. En vista de los potenciales beneficios que la utilización de la autogestión tiene para las organizaciones es que se observa su aplicación en las más variadas ramas. Las empresas de telefonía celular no son la excepción. Con base a esto se plantea en esta tesis el objetivo de identificar si existe congruencia entre la oferta de servicios de autogestión ofrecidos por estas empresas y el uso real que de ellas hacen sus usuarios. Para llegar al cumplimiento de estos objetivos por un lado se procedió a la indagación y relevamiento de los canales y servicios de autogestión que los operadores de telefonía celular habilitan a sus usuarios residentes en la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires. Por otro lado se plateó una encuesta que proporcione información del grado en que los usuarios de telefonía celular utilizan los canales y servicios de autogestión, la utilización de servicios de autogestión de otros rubros y la experiencia en el uso de servicios de autogestión.
