i-MODE
i-MODE is the NTT DoCoMo launched operations in 1999, Internet services, as there are already more than 32 million of users, is the world's most successful mobile Internet model. The biggest change is the billing model, originally designed to time-based billing methods, changing into a packet (download volume) as a unit, so you can significantly reduce the user's Internet access costs, speed up the popularity of speed.
i-MODE was introduced only 67 sites, now more than 45,000 websites, for the i-MODE content to users. Fast-growing because the i-MODE uses C-HTML Web site authoring language, compatibility with existing Internet generic HTML language, so ICP sector can quickly transfer existing content services, reducing development time.
And the letter of telecommunications shares, after NTT DoCoMo last year, they began to actively research and development actions, including mobile phones specifications, content sites such as deployment and distribution rate, and is believed to be the Asian region excluding Japan, the first launch of the market, compared to third world regions of months ago, the i-MODE services have been launched in Europe first, with mobile phone manufacturers, compared with Toshiba.
I-PBX Internet users to switch (Internet PBX)
I-PBX is the integration of voice and data capabilities on the same switch, is with the Internet boom and the introduction of products. The use of PBX targeted at companies with at least a certain number of bodies in the popularization of personal computers, as well as operating procedures, computerization of complementary conditions, the corporate network (Intranet) in the medium and large enterprises is an essential facility, as a result of the cost of small enterprises considerations may not have Intranet installation, for this type of customer, into I-PBX, may well be economical and effective method.
Currently marketed products are emphasized Hsiao Ke stacking capacity expansion, easy to install, easy management, connected to the network, can be anywhere in the world, monitor and manage the Division I-PBX. It is connected voice terminals can be divided into six categories:
1. The traditional phone and fax.
2. IP-PHONE (IP-based phone).
3. Soft-phone: in the implementation of specific software on a PC and use PC video and voice capabilities on a PC as a multimedia phone will be used.
4. Switchboard, switchboard and automatic with manual switchboard.
5. Adapter: used to connect a traditional analog phone, convert it into a LAN (local area network) interface and connects to I-PBX.
6. The wireless LAN terminal, using the traditional telephone network the same way as a wireless extension, but the air interface with digital transmission.
In addition to the aforementioned first terminal device to analog connections, while the rest is a standard LAN interface (using RJ-45 connector). As the terminal to LAN interface to connect, when the full set of I-PBX architecture is completed, to form a LAN or Intranet; or if the I-PBX and the terminal connected to the user's existing LAN / Intranet, do not need additional wiring can be enjoy the PBX functions.
I-PBX Another feature is the digital extension, (the aforementioned terminal 2 ~ 6) As long as connect to the Internet can be installed in anywhere in the world, the use of considerable flexibility. .
In addition to the services provided by traditional PBX with the added service, another increase in a single information and Internet Call Center Services.
I2O Intelligent I / O
I2O SIG developed by a new kind of input and output architecture, the use of special input-output processor (I / O PROCESSOR) to control interrupt (INTERRUPT) and data buffer and data transmission functions, and use the drivers and hardware modules to reduce the use of a general input-output bus (BUS).
IA (Information Appliance)
IA is a post-PC era of the hottest industries. Information appliance industry integration of information (Computer), communication (Communication), consumer electronics (Consumer Electronics) characteristics, not only become the future trend, but also for human life brought about fundamental change.
As long as that computer, I believe we will be in their minds, being put out of your computer looks like, that we all know the definition of a computer. However, IA is not the case, IA currently defined or not conclusive, and even the definition of the scope of IA and the IA industry, definitions of terms there is no definite explanation. Nonetheless, there are some core concepts to follow, more than the current accepted definition of IA must have the "easy to use, inexpensive and connect to the network," three characteristics, in particular, the networking features built on a coming to the Internet as the core, and with people living, working, learning and entertainment and other closely related concepts, which along with information appliance and the appliance of information technology in the trend of surging under the various products into the lives of you and me in.
In short, will be a wide range of household electrical appliances and the Internet through a link in order to provide people more intelligent functions and services, from remote orders, keeping, monitoring, security identification, health diagnosis to home entertainment, automotive navigation, etc., are all appliance of information technology can play in space, the current IA products derived from the information products part about network television, screen video calls, Internet games, e-mail terminal, Web browser terminals, smart Handheld terminals main categories.
Well-known international market research firm IDC (International Data Corp.) Published in February 2000 the global IA market forecast, 1999 and 2004 respectively, the global market value of 2.4 billion U.S. dollars and 178 billion dollars, in 1999 and 2004 global market, yields were 1,100 million and 8,900 million units. If the compound annual growth rate point of view, in the year 2000 to 2004 period, the output rate of 39.1% based on the growth rate of output growth of 33.5% based on rate of growth far beyond the personal computer, the potential is amazing. In terms of product categories to observe, in a large number of IA products, who will win? By 2004, based on smart handheld devices, 3,318 million units in the highest ranks, the most popular PDA and SmartPhone is included in this category, the runner-up is available online consoles has 2,264 million units, the typical products PS2, X -BOX etc., second runner-up was 1,781 million units of television networks, the networking features of traditional TV with the evolving product.
