(“LTD”) has filed extensive comments and reply comments in various Commission proceedings concerning similar implementations of Telegate’s currently proposed combined use of abbreviated dialing arrangements, or “ADA’s” and the Advanced Intelligent Network, or “AIN”. 1 As such, LTD supports Telegate’s proposal and is grateful to the Commission for it’s formal consideration. As shown herein, the Commission should adopt the proposal made by Telegate, with certain key modifications, in order to bring competition in the provisioning of AIN, directory assistance and ADA based services to telecommunications consumers. In these previous filings, LTD has urged the Commission to order the competitive use of abbreviated dialing arrangements, currently in the form of N11, *XX, *2XX and *3XX, as dialable telephone numbers without the requirement of presubscription. Because existing incumbent local exchange carriers (“ILEC’s”) offer *XX based services without requiring presubscription, in the form of pay-per-use *66 and *69 offerings, LTD has urged 1 See LTD’s Comments and Reply Comments filed in the Abbreviated Dialing Docket (92-105) and UNE Remand the Commission to allow similar competitive provisioning of *XX type services on a non-presubscribed basis using AIN-based officewide triggers. The current proposal could alleviate the need to provide access to other ADA’s while still providing service providers, such as LTD, with a meaningful opportunity to compete in the provisioning of ADA and AIN based services.

  • The Architecture of the Ara Platform for Mobile Agents
    To appear in: Kurt Rothermel, Radu Popescu-Zeletin (Eds.): Proceedings of the First International Workshop on Mobile Agents, MA’97, April 7-8th 1997, Berlin, Germany. Lecture Notes in Computer Science Nr. 1219, Springer Verlag 1997. ISBN: 3-540-62803-7 The Architecture of the Ara Platform for Mobile Agents Holger Peine and Torsten Stolpmann Dept. of Computer Science University of Kaiserslautern, Germany {peine, stolp}@informatik.uni-kl.de Abstract: We describe a platform for the portable and secure execution of mobile agents written in various interpreted languages on top of a common run-time core. Agents may migrate at any point in their execution, fully preserving their state, and may exchange messages with other agents. One system may contain many virtual places, each establishing a domain of logically related services under a common security policy governing all agents at this place. Agents are equipped with allowances limiting their resource accesses, both globally per agent lifetime and locally per place. We discuss aspects of this architecture and report about ongoing work. Keywords: migration, multi-language, interpreter, Tcl, C, byte code, Java, persistence, authenti- cation, security domain. 1. Introduction Mobile agents have raised considerable interest as a new concept for networked com- puting, and numerous software platforms for various forms of mobile code have recently appeared and are still appearing [CGH95, CMR+96, GRA96, HMD+96, LAN96, LDD95, JRS95, RAS+97, SBH96]. While there seems to have emerged a wide agreement about the general requirements for such systems, most notably porta- bility and security of agent execution, many issues are still debated, as witnessed by the numerous approaches exploring diverging solutions.

  • Why Did Apple Kill Newton?
    From Pen Computing Magazine #22, June 1998 Why Did Apple Kill Newton? ©Copyright 1998 David MacNeill Early Friday morning, February 27, 1998, Apple Computer made official what the Newton cognoscenti had strongly suspected for six months: the Newton handheld computing platform was dead. The rather terse press release gave the basic facts: Apple will cease all Newton OS hardware and software development, no more products will be made after the existing stock is depleted, and Apple will continue to provide support to users. Brief mention was made of development of a new low-cost Mac OS-based mobile device in the future, but no details were offered. But the most galling omission was the lack of an answer to the question on the minds of hundreds of thousands of shocked, angry Newton owners: Why? Before I attempt to answer this question, let’s take a quick tour of the mercurial five-year career of Newton. This will serve to prepare you for the several explanations we will be considering. A brief history of Newton During its turbulent five-year life, Newton technology was close to death several times, yet always managed to survive. Department heads came and went, but the essential concept of the personal digital assistant (PDA) was too compelling to die easily: A small, inexpensive, pen-based computing device that would accompany you everywhere, and that would learn enough about you to make informed assumptions about how to help you keep track of the myriad little bits of information we all must carry. It would be simple enough for anyone to use, a true computer for the rest of us.

  • Penrose in the New Economy
    Penrose in the New Economy Benjamin Gomes‐Casseres Forthcoming in Strategic Management Review Edith Penrose’s theory eminently fit the mid‐20th century firms and industries that she studied. What would she say about the very different firms in today’s New Economy? I update Penrose’s model with new theories of the firm that emerged after she wrote, including economics of contracting and of the new digital economy. These newer theories fit well with her concepts, and even help complete Penrose’s model. I also explore how firms in the New Economy leverage their internal resources by using alliances, ecosystems, and platforms to access the services of external resources. These strategies expand the pool of resources available to the firm, and enable firms to grow faster than Penrose imagined. Further, these bundles of resources are governed by administrative mechanisms that she did not originally contemplate, including the use of code to automate decisions. While Penrose taught us to see the firm as a bundle of resources, we now see that not all bundles of resources are firms. This new perspective helps bring Penrose up to date with firms and industries in the New Economy. Version: V5.0, April 20, 2020 Benjamin Gomes‐Casseres Peter A. Petri Professor of Business and Society Brandeis University International Business School Waltham, Mass., USA Email: [email protected] 2 When Edith Penrose wrote The Theory of the Growth of the Firm (TGF)1, firms like Du Pont, General Motors, Standard Oil represented the pinnacle of the American economy. Her analysis was based on thoughtful observation of their practices, specifically those of the Hercules Powder Company.

    Hintz 1 Susan Kare: Design Icon by Eric S. Hintz, PhD Historian, Lemelson Center for the Study of Invention and Innovation National Museum of American History, Smithsonian Institution [email protected] SHOT SIGCIS – Works in Progress Session Albuquerque, NM October 11, 2015 DEAR COLLEAGUES: Thanks for reading this work-in-progress! I’m a SIGCIS rookie and relatively new to the history of computing. Thus, in terms of feedback, I’d appreciate a) some sense of whether this proposed article would have any traction within the scholarly/SIGCIS community and b) some help situating the story within the relevant secondary literature and historiography. Finally, given the largely non-archival sources I had to work with, I wrote this up more like a magazine feature (vs. scholarly article) so I’d also appreciate c) any suggestions for appropriate journals and publication venues. P.S. This article is ripe for lots of colorful images. Thanks! ESH Graphic designer Susan Kare has been called the “the Betsy Ross of the personal computer,” the “Queen of Look and Feel,” the “Matisse of computer icons,” and the “mother of the Mac trash can.”1 Indeed, Kare is best known for designing most of the distinctive icons, typefaces, and other graphic elements that gave the Apple Macintosh its characteristic—and widely emulated—look and feel. Since her work on the Mac during the early 1980s, Kare has spent the last three decades designing user interface elements for many of the leading software and Internet firms, from Microsoft and Oracle to Facebook and Paypal. Kare’s work is omnipresent in the digital realm; if you have clicked on an icon to save a file, switched the fonts in a document from Geneva to Monaco, or tapped your smart phone screen to launch a mobile app, then you have benefited from her designs.

  • Explore Magic Cap, a Smartphone OS from a Decade Before the Iphone Created by Matthew Goodrich
    Explore Magic Cap, a smartphone OS from a decade before the iPhone Created by Matthew Goodrich Last updated on 2019-08-30 05:49:53 PM UTC Overview Next in our series of "people who left Apple and founded a revolutionary company that was ahead of its time and created amazing products but ultimately failed," let's check out General Magic and their operating system called Magic Cap. General Magic was formed by Marc Porat, Andy Hertzfeld, and Bill Atkinson in 1990. They had been working on an internal Apple project called Paradigm, but convinced Apple CEO John Sculley to spin it off as a separate company. Their idea was called a personal digital assistant in the 90s, but looking at it now it looks a lot like a modern smartphone. Porat described it as "a tiny computer, a phone, a very personal object... It must be beautiful. It must offer the kind of personal satisfaction that a fine piece of jewelry brings. It will have a perceived value even when it's not being used... Once you use it you won't be able to live without it." Check out Josh Carter's page, Before General Magic There Was Paradigm (https://adafru.it/FHG). That looks a lot like an iPhone (except for the stylus, Jobs would get rid of that), and this was in 1990! Take a look at a video of Andy Hertzfeld demoing a General Magic phone prototype in 1995: And check out this trailer for a documentary about General Magic: Let's install a Magic Cap emulator and see what it was like! Unfortunately, the emulator is from the 90s and it runs on 90s Mac OS, so we need to install another emulator first.

  • General Magic, Marc Porat Y Los Agentes Por Tomàs Baiget
    General Magic, Marc Porat y los agentes Por Tomàs Baiget General Magic es una de esas empresas curiosas, empezando por el nombre, que si uno se encuentra a un colega amigo es casi obligado presentársela. Por cierto, amigo lector, ahora que estamos reunidos, permítanos que se la presentemos. ☺ General Magic (en este artículo GM) partió de un proyecto de Apple para estudiar cuál podría ser en el futuro la etapa siguiente a los ordenadores personales. En mayo de 1990 Apple decidió constituirlo en empresa filial independiente con los 2 ingenieros que más activamente habían participado en el desarrollo de los Macintosh, Andy Hertzfeld y Bill Atkinson, y con Marc Porat, que fue extraído del Grupo de Tecnología Avanzada, también de Apple. Atkinson fue el principal diseñador del programa HyperCard. Atraídos por la fama de los fundadores, reunidos bajo un nombre tan original, pronto participaron en GM, formando un consorcio, grandes nombres como AT&T (American Telegraph & Telephone), NTT (Nippon Telegraph and Telephone), Matsushita, Motorola, Philips y Sony, a los que hace pocos meses siguieron nada menos que Fujitsu y France Telecom.
