Join us for our first Mobile Monday Mid-Atlantic event
of the 2008/2009 season!
Event: September 22, 2008
Time: Registration and Networking starts at 5:30. Panel at 6:00 P.M.
Topic: Next Generation Wireless Networks
Location: Franklin Insititute (The Fels Planetarium)
Panelists: AT&T, Comcast, XOHM, NAC, Wharton
Moderator: Kevin Werbach, The Wharton School. Assistant Professor of Legal Studies & Business Ethics.
OVERVIEW: Next generation 4G wireless networks such as LTE and WiMax offer increased speeds and inter-connectivity between devices. What new services and applications can be created or improved?
What new devices will you need?
Which is better? Is LTE the superior technology - it is being adopted by carriers such as AT&T and Verizon. Or is WiMax (favored by the Computing/Internet crowd of Xohm, Google, Intel and Comcast) the way to go?
These new networks will make it possible for your refrigerator to sense when you are in the supermarket and then interface with your cell phone to tell you not to forget milk. They will enable your camera to instantly send every photo you take to your computer. In addition to these simple examples, at this event we'll learn the really important things these networks can do.
Networking opportunities will proceed and follow the main presentations.
