EMERGING TECHNOLOGY

The term "emerging technology" tends to refer to a new technology, but it can also refer to the
ongoing evolution of an existing technology. When used in different contexts, such as in the media,
business, science, or educational fields, it can have slightly different connotations. The word is often
reserved for technologies that are having or are anticipated to have substantial social or economic
effects and is used to describe technologies that are under development or that are anticipated to
be available within the next five to ten years. A theory of society's drastic transformation due to
technical advancement is called technological evolution.

MOBILE COMPUTING

Mobile computing is a field of technology that enables wireless transfer of data,
speech, and video via a computer or other device. It doesn't connect to a fixed physical
link because it is free of that. During conversation, it makes it easier for users to travel
from one physical location to another.

Introduction of Mobile Computing
A technology known as mobile computing offers a setting that enables users to send data
from one device to another without the need for a physical connection or cords.

In other terms, you could say that mobile computing enables the transfer of data, speech,
and video using a computer or any other device that has wireless capabilities, without
having to be connected to a fixed physical link. With this technique, data is transmitted
wirelessly through mobile phones, computers, and other wireless devices.

You can only view and transmit data from remote areas without physically being there
thanks to mobile computing technologies. A wide communication coverage diameter is
made possible by mobile computer technology. It is among the swiftest and most
dependable industries.

The concept of Mobile Computing can be divided into three parts:

o Mobile Communication
o Mobile Hardware
o Mobile Software




MOBILE COMMUNICATION




A framework for the operation of mobile computer technology is defined by mobile
communication. Mobile communication in this context refers to a system that enables

, dependable and seamless wireless device communication. This architecture
guarantees the consistency and dependability of wireless device communication. The
mobile communication framework is made up of the communication tools, such as
protocols, services, bandwidth, and portals, required to enable and support the
aforementioned services. These gadgets are in charge of ensuring effective
communication.

Mobile communication can be divided in the following four types:


1. Fixed and Wired
2. Fixed and Wireless
3. Mobile and Wired
4. Mobile and Wireless




Fixed and Wired: In Fixed and Wired configuration, the devices are fixed at a position, and
they are connected through a physical link to communicate with other devices.

For Example, Desktop Computer.

Fixed and Wireless: In Fixed and Wireless configuration, the devices are fixed at a position,
and they are connected through a wireless link to make communication with other devices.

For Example, Communication Towers, WiFi router

Mobile and Wired: In Mobile and Wired configuration, some devices are wired, and some
are mobile. They altogether make communication with other devices.

For Example, Laptops.

Mobile and Wireless: In Mobile and Wireless configuration, the devices can communicate
with each other irrespective of their position. They can also connect to any network without
the use of any wired device.

For Example, WiFi Dongle.

,Mobile Hardware

Mobile hardware consists of mobile devices or device components that can be used to receive
or access the service of mobility. Examples of mobile hardware can be smartphones, laptops,
portable PCs, tablet PCs, Personal Digital Assistants, etc.




These devices are inbuilt with a receptor medium that can send and receive signals. These
devices are capable of operating in full-duplex. It means they can send and receive signals at
the same time. They don't have to wait until one device has finished communicating for the
other device to initiate communications.


Mobile Software

Mobile software is a program that runs on mobile hardware. This is designed to deal capably
with the characteristics and requirements of mobile applications. This is the operating system
for the appliance of mobile devices. In other words, you can say it the heart of the mobile
systems. This is an essential component that operates the mobile device.




This provides portability to mobile devices, which ensures wireless communication.

, Applications of Mobile Computing
Following is a list of some significant fields in which mobile computing is generally applied:

o Web or Internet access.
o Global Position System (GPS).
o Emergency services.
o Entertainment services.
o Educational services.


Fixed vs. Wireless Networks in Mobile Computing
Fixed and Wireless Networks are both used in Mobile computing. Fixed networks commonly
operate on radio transmission to connect established, wired communications systems. Let's
see the differences between fixed and wireless networks in mobile computing.


Difference between Fixed and Wireless Networks
The differences between Fixed and Wireless networks can be distinguished as that the
wireless networks do not require any cables to make a physical connection with the device. It
is easily assessable because it is a shared medium. On the other hand, in the case of fixed
networks, a physical configuration of devices is mandatory to perform data transmission. In
this medium, you have to connect every new device separately and physically to the network.
Let's consider and make a comparison between these two technologies used in mobile
computing.

The following table specifies the main differences between the Fixed and Wireless Networks in
mobile computing technology:


Wireless Networks Fixed Networks


There is no requirement of any physical In Fixed Networks, a physical configuration is
configuration in the wireless network. required in any condition.


The data loss rate is high in Wireless In Fixed Networks, a perfect link is established
Networks. between the devices, so; the data loss rate is very
low.


In Wireless Networks, the data In Fixed Networks, the rate of data transmission is
transmission rate is comparatively low, high, so it provides high speed.
so it provides less speed.


Latency is high in Wireless Networks, There is no issue of latency in Fixed Networks
which finally results in more delay. because there is a perfect connection established
between the devices that provide less delay.


The Wireless Networks may be hacked; Fixed Networks connections are highly secured.
that's why the security is always low in
