Service Assurance Weekly Reading List

Service Assurance Weekly Reading List: Here are six stories from the past week that we think are worth reading:

  1. The Technology Behind Virgin Atlantic’s Mid-Flight Cell Phone System
    While the idea of people chatting on cell phones mid-flight might anger fellow passengers, the technology behind it is cool.

  2. This Is How You Will Connect Everything in Your Home to the Internet
    The Electric IMP is pretty interesting. How it gets connected to your home Wi-Fi network is even cooler.

  3. Apache Isn't Just About HTTP Anymore
    While the Web Server is primary to Apache, it's important to remember that it's only one project out of MANY. The Apache Software Foundation this week issued a momentum release highlighted just how many project it has now and how large an impact it now has on a wide range of technologies.

  4. Computer Programming for All: A New Standard of Literacy
    Everyone ought to be able to read and write; few people within the global mainstream would argue with that statement. But should everyone be able to program computers? The question is becoming critically important as digital technology plays an ever more central role in daily life.

  5. Meet the Meeting Killers
    The opening paragraph says it all: When it comes time for a meeting, co-workers can be deadly. Discussions get hijacked. Bad ideas fall like blunt objects. Long-winded colleagues consume all available oxygen, killing good ideas by asphyxiation.

  6. 'Thelma & Louise,' 'Beetlejuice' star Geena Davis wins major telecom award
    Actress Geena Davis, President of Argentina Cristina Fernández de Kirchner and Huawei Chairman Sun Yafang have been named winners of the 2012 ITU World Telecommunication and Information Society Award for their efforts promoting information and communications technology (ICT) to empower women and girls.
