No.: J190 Project No.: 0900610F-01 M Center for Information and Telecommunications Technologies Falls Church, Virginia ABSTRACT The worlds of mobile communication and the Internet are rapidly converging. This new domain, which is being touted as the "Wireless Web" or "Mobile Internet", is in its infancy and will require a number of complex technologies to mature and converge before it becomes as prevalent and as functional as its wired counterpart. While being developed to extend the reach of Internet users, these new technologies can also be used to support various ITS operations. This report introduces the new mobile Internet technologies and describes how they could be applied to ITS. It also presents some of the technical and institutional considerations when using such technologies to support agency operations. Suggested Keywords: mobile, Internet, wireless, prototype, Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) i ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The authors wish to thank the following individuals for their administrative assistance during the initial prototyping efforts. • Ms. Dawn Hardesty, Senior Engineer, Mitretek Systems • Mr. Thomas Farley, Northern Virginia District Administrator, Virginia Department of Transportation • Mr. Kamal Suliman, Traffic Operations Director, Smart Traffic Center, Virginia Department of Transportation • Ms. Amy McElwain, Northern Virginia ITS Smart Travel Manager, Virginia Department of Transportation • Mr.

  • Arkansas Airwaves
    Arkansas Airwaves Ray Poindexter A little more than a year after radio broadcasting was first heard nationally, Arkansas' first regular licensed station went on the air. The state's progress has not usually been as rapid in most other fields. At first, radio was considered to be a novelty. There was no advertising revenue to support it. Many of the early Arkansas stations left the air. Those that remained were jolted by the Great Depression. By the time things started getting better economic- ally, the nation became involved in World War ll. It brought various broadcasting restrictions and a shortage of products to be advertised. Radio's economic heyday in Arkansas came after the war. New stations began to spring up in many towns in the state. Soon the rushing radio surge was met head-on by a new and threatening medium --television! The question of survival was uppermost in the minds of some radio station owners. In order to live with the new force that had a picture as well as sound, many Arkansas stations had to make necessary adjust- ments. Today, both radio and television are alive and well in Arkansas.
