MixRadio, which is available in 31 countries, had originally been aimed at providing music content for Nokia which faced a tough challenge from the iPhone due to Apple's iTunes. MixRadio said that it would still be pre-loaded on Microsoft's Lumia phones. The expansion comes as streaming—which allows unlimited on-demand listening—and Internet radio rapidly expand. MixRadio, which markets itself as a personalized Thanks to the rise of streaming and Internet radio streaming service with curated playlists, said it would be providers such as Spotify, Deezer, Pandora and available on Androids and iPhones Rhapsody, digital music matched physical sales in revenue for the first time globally last year. © 2015 AFP MixRadio, the streaming service originally launched by Nokia, on Tuesday expanded availability to major smartphone platforms as the market for on-demand music keeps growing. MixRadio, which markets itself as a personalized streaming service with curated playlists, said it would be available on Androids and iPhones. MixRadio also announced a tie-up with Taiwanese telecom company HTC, which will bring the streaming service into its BlinkFeed feature that shows appointments, news and other items from across the device on the homescreen. "For many people this will be the first time they have been able to experience MixRadio; we're confident they will love the simplicity of the experience and the quality of the personalization we deliver," MixRadio chief executive officer Jyrki Rosenberg said in a statement.

T-Mobile and MetroPCS Continue to Expand Consumer Choice, Will Offer New Windows Phone 8.1 on Nokia’s Upcoming Lumia 635 BELLEVUE, Wash. – April 2, 2014 – Immediately on the heels of Microsoft’s Windows Phone 8.1 unveiling today, T-Mobile US, Inc. (NYSE: TMUS) has announced the company will offer up its Redmond neighbor’s latest mobile OS as part of its ongoing commitment to deliver greater freedom and choice for American wireless consumers – starting with Nokia’s new Lumia 635 coming this summer. The Lumia 635 will be the first device sold in the United States powered out of the box by the very latest Windows Phone 8.1 operating system, introduced earlier today at Microsoft’s 2014 Build developers conference in San Francisco. T-Mobile US today also announced that, come summer, T-Mobile and MetroPCS will be the best places to get the very first smartphone with the new Windows Phone OS for a low upfront cost and with zero service contract, zero overages (while on its wicked-fast network), zero hidden device costs, and zero upgrade wait. And only T-Mobile and MetroPCS customers can experience the next-gen Lumia 635 on America’s fastest nationwide 4G LTE network. “The Un-carrier’s all about removing crazy restrictions and delivering total wireless freedom and flexibility,” said Jason Young, senior vice president of Marketing at T-Mobile. “With Windows Phone, we can offer customers another great choice in mobile platforms. And we’re excited to bring to both T- Mobile and MetroPCS customers the combination of next-gen software, great features and fresh design that Nokia’s latest Windows Phone has to offer.” The Lumia 635 will build on all the qualities and benefits that made its predecessor – the Lumia 521 – so popular among American wireless customers.

Microsoft Drops Nokia Name from Smartphones 24 October 2014
Microsoft drops Nokia name from smartphones 24 October 2014 Microsoft said Friday it was dropping the Nokia name from its Lumia smartphones, rebranding following the acquisition earlier this year of the Finnish group's handset division. The rebranding is "a natural progression as all devices that once came from Nokia now come from Microsoft," said Tuula Rytila, senior vice president of marketing for phones at Microsoft. "Lumia is now part of a compelling family of Microsoft products like Xbox, Windows and Surface along with a range of services such as Skype, Office and Bing." In an interview on the Nokia conversations blog, Rytila said there was no specific timetable announced but that "we are looking forward to unveiling a Microsoft Lumia device soon." Microsoft will keep the Nokia for entry-level phones, such as the Nokia 130, under a license agreement between the companies. The acquisition for more than $7.5 billion was completed in April. Nokia was the world leader in mobile phones until it was challenged by Apple's iPhone in 2007 and later Samsung. Microsoft has struggled to gain market shares for its Windows Phone devices. According to the research firm Strategy Analytics, Windows had just 2.5 percent of the smartphone market in the second quarter, mainly from Nokia and a small number of other manufacturers. © 2014 AFP APA citation: Microsoft drops Nokia name from smartphones (2014, October 24) retrieved 28 September 2021 from https://phys.org/news/2014-10-microsoft-nokia-smartphones.html This document is subject to copyright.

It is a low-complexity design with a security architecture including 2 biometric traits (fingerprint and iris). The fingerprint processing for feature generation is optimized on the mobile device, but the iris template optimization is performed on server. In both cases, the feature space is transformed to provide a suitable trade-off performance vs. complexity for a properly reduced dimensionality. The matching is based on a target-vs.-non-target classification in order to meet the requirements of an identification process in which only a target identity must be recognized. The target identity belongs to the mobile device owner. Key-Words: - security model, feature, data fusion, mobile application 1 Introduction In this paper, a biometric security model for The extending usage of the mobile applications is mobile applications is defined, with design for low- enabled by the technological advances in hardware, complexity applications, using 2 biometric traits software and mobile networking.
