Terminal characteristics

• Limitations: – RAM– Power consumption – CPU– Weight & volume– Accesses (frequency)– Price

• Impact: Sets limits to applications, services and usage

Terminal characteristics - Access

Divition by range:

• Long: 2G, (E)GPRS, 3G, DVB-T

• Medium: WLAN, BT

• Short: IRda, serial, USB, RFID

Terminal characteristics – User Interface

• Usability:The extent to which a product can be used by specified users to achieve specified goals with effectiveness, efficiency and satisfaction in a specified context of use. (ISO/DIS 8241-11)

• For human senses: display, keyboard, audio, vibration (vs. m2m) -> evolution

• Difference between a pda and a smartphone

• Braille phone

• UI for elderly?

Application development environment

Example: Series 60

• Java and C++– Use– Limitations

• Issues: new phenomena, security, operator required SW certificates, DRM

Future terminals

• Beyond 3G– Ambient networks, semantic web, combination of

current access technologies (3G and WLAN)• 4G

– New radio access,100 Mb/s-1Gb/s connection

• Evolution of UI (HUD, voice control, projected keyboards)

• Working around physical limitations– Proximity networks, fuel cells
