  • Voip in Mobile Phones
    VOIP IN MOBILE PHONES Abstract Voice over IP (VoIP) is a family of technologies, methodologies, communication protocols, and transmission techniques for the delivery of voice communications and multimedia sessions over Internet Protocol (IP) networks, such as the Internet. Other terms frequently encountered and often used synonymously with VoIP are IP telephony, Internet telephony, voice over broadband (VoBB), broadband telephony, and broadband phone. We explain the introduction of VoIP in the year of 2005 and its progress from there on. The meaning of voip and the purpose of VoIP is discussed here. Moreover the technological advancements in the field of VoIP in mobiles has been discussed. The advantages and also the demerits of VoIP has been included .VoIP in mobies has grown drastically and is one of the advanced way of communication at low cost. This is the topic for our presentation “VoIP in mobiles” INTRODUCTION While the emergence of VoIP, or voice-over-Internet protocol, technology has already helped push down the cost of making a phone call, now it’s starting to have a deflationary impact on the world of mobile, where call charges remain stubbornly high. In the meantime, the ongoing adoption of 3G broadband and the inclusion of Wi-Fi in many high-end phones is drawing a growing amount of attention to mobile VoIP services. Indeed, research firm Disruptive Analysis predicts that the number of VoIP-over-3G users will top 250 million by the end of 2012 — from virtually zero in 2007. VoIP systems employ session control protocols to control the set-up and tear-down of calls as well as audio codecs which encode speech allowing transmission over an IP network as digital audio via an audio stream.

    Adamson University 900 San Marcelino st., Ermita, Manila 1000 SYMBIAN OS Embedded Operating System Operating Systems Prof. Antonette Daligdig Atienza, Lemuel Jay Bacarra, Dan Paolo Dulatre, Michael Angelo Jimenez, John Edward Llorca, Bryalle November 2009 Table of Contents I Introduction II Origin/History III Characteristics III.a. Processing III.b. Memory Management III.c. I/O : Input/Output IV Features V Strengths VI Weakness VII Example of Applications where the OS is being used VIII Screenshots I Introduction More than 90% of the CPUs in the world are not in desktops and notebooks. They are in embedded systems like cell phones, PDAs, digital cameras, camcorders, game machines, iPods, MP3 players, CD players, DVD recorders, wireless routers, TV sets, GPS receivers, laser printers, cars, and many more consumer products. Most of these use modern 32-bit and 64-bit chips, and nearly all of them run a full-blown operating system. Taking a close look at one operating system popular in the embedded systems world: Symbian OS, Symbian OS is an operating system that runs on mobile ‘‘smartphone’’ platforms from several different manufacturers. Smartphones are so named because they run fully-featured operating systems and utilize the features of desktop computers. Symbian OS is designed so that it can be the basis of a wide variety of smartphones from several different manufacturers. It was carefully designed specifically to run on smartphone platforms: general-purpose computers with limited CPU, memory and storage capacity, focused on communication. Our discussion of Symbian OS will start with its history. We will then provide an overview of the system to give an idea of how it is designed and what uses the designers intended for it.
