  • Wearable technology in the enterprise

    Freitag, 31. Oktober 2014

    Here we are in the middle of the wearable boom, and the big mobile development companies are in a war to offer the best user experience, style and usability in these kinds of devices. It is expected that 17 million wearables will be shipped throughout the world in 2014.

    The big question is whether wearables will only be developed with the mass consumer in mind or if they will have utility in the enterprise sector.

  • How mobile changed the way we communicate

    Mittwoch, 22. Oktober 2014

    This blog is co-authored with Ms. Theresa (Ning, Chun Fang), a postgraduate intern to IBM from the Dalian Nationalities University in Dalian China.

    Smartphones have a major impact on our social life. Who would have imagined that a family within the same house would communicate by sending messages on their mobile devices instead of talking face to face? It doesn’t sound so bad, however, if you look at it from the point of view that this also allows that family to be connected in real time, all the time, even when not at the same location.

  • Have you had your Java beans today?

    Montag, 20. Oktober 2014

    If you’re like me, you wake up in the morning, grab a cup of coffee and hope that coffee gives you enough energy to make it through the day. The java beans in the coffee are what give you that extra push, and it is that same push that enables Java to give applications their kick.

  • Go mobile at IBM Insight 2014

    Freitag, 17. Oktober 2014

    Packing for a conference in Las Vegas is always a challenge—at least for me. When choosing my clothing for an event, I prioritize looking good followed by comfort. Maybe this is a female thing, or maybe it’s a personal thing, but in Vegas I need one outfit for the day and one for the night. After the multi-hour process of trying on clothes, I have to decide on the least number of shoes I can pack while still looking good and surviving all the walking at the conference.

  • Using architectural thinking for an enterprise mobility strategy

    Montag, 13. Oktober 2014

    In this blog post, I want to investigate the usefulness of an enterprise architecture methodology and talk about how it could be used in a mobile strategy. Please note that I won’t attempt to describe the development of a comprehensive mobile enterprise architecture (that’s too much for one blog post!). Instead I will focus on the adoption of “architecture thinking” for mobile infrastructure architects.

  • Millennials: Mobile first or mobile only?

    Freitag, 10. Oktober 2014

    “The millennial generation is going to change the world, including how we work and consume. Our industry—indeed, every industry—would do well to learn from them and adapt to them. The extended era of the baby boomers is drawing to a close.” (Prosumer report)

     

  • The interactive typewriter: An IBM Smarter Planet Award winning project

    Mittwoch, 8. Oktober 2014

    In today’s blog post, I am extremely happy to announce Joe Hounsham (@joehounsham) as this year’s IBM Smarter Planet Award winner for Plymouth University.

    His awesome project “Dico” really captures the imagination, and I just had to give him a call to find out how he put it all together.

  • How ready is your infrastructure for the new mobile reality?

    Freitag, 3. Oktober 2014

    Do you know exactly how ready your organization’s infrastructure is for the new mobile reality?

    Are you sure you have a solid understanding of what a mobile-ready infrastructure is and how to get there?

    Are you worried about the buzz around mobile applications and concerned about how you can deploy and support them on corporate-owned devices or in a bring your own device (BYOD) program?
