Sipnms. sipnms is a web-based network management tool which uses SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) to monitor remote nodes.

Concept
It employs synthetic monitoring to emulate client transactions and these transactions can be implemented using message scripts as per the nodes requirement. 
This method is useful to monitor VOIP systems performance in the perspective of the customers. Most important part of this concept is that SIP messages can be passed beyond the node directly connected to the Internet. These messages can be converted to by the node behind to required protocols (H.323, SS7, etc.), so that they traverse to destination nodes.

Nodes on a telecommunication network uses different criteria such as number level and message types to route cal control messages.  Using message scripts  it is possible to send different messages (to and from different numbers or message types) destined to different nodes inside depending upon the response type and time for the response sipnms can generate performance and operations level of the systems under the monitor.

Features
Built in and custom definable message scripts 
Easy to understand message scripts, define simple command message and time format to define message scripts. Commands are “waittosend” and “waittoreceive” and message is the message to be sent or wait for. Time define how long to wait in case of “waittoreceive” or how long to wait before sending the message.
Alert (Email and SNMP) 
 SNMP or email alerts as configuration in system will send alerts when nodes change their status in case of detection of system change
Message Trace 
Message trace can be enabled to easily diagnose and view the types of messages received from the node under the monitoring. 
Performance Statistics 
Users can view how the response time is varied with the time and message sequence are differed from the defined sequence, giving many insights to network in the perspective of the customer

Pheasant H-10. The H-10 Pheasant was a tandem-seat conventional landing gear-equipped biplane with fabric covering, built in 1928 by the Pheasant Aircraft Company to compete in the crowded market of barnstorming biplanes. The company dissolved shortly after, during the Great Depression of the early 1930s.

Development
The H-10 was designed by Orville Hickman for Lee R. Biggs, owner of the newly formed Pheasant Aircraft Company in Memphis, Missouri. Eleven units were built before the death of the company founder in a flying accident on December 5, 1927. Race pilot Steve Wittman took over as test pilot. Wittman helped relocate the company to his home in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin when Adolf Bechaud and his associates purchased the company.

Design
The Pheasant H-10 is made from a welded steel tube fuselage with a fabric covering. The aircraft was powered by a  water cooled Curtiss OX-5 engine. The landing gear was conventionally mounted, with a tail skid.

Operational history
Pheasant test pilot Steve Wittman entered The H-10 was entered into the September 8, 1928 Air Derby from New York to Los Angeles. Dropping out due to radiator trouble in the desert. Wittman finished 12th out of 38 entries. Wittman raced again in the 1928 Air Derby from Los Angeles to Cincinnati and finished in 4th place. He also entered the H-10 in the 1929 National Air Races in Cleveland.

Survivors
 One example is on static display in Memphis, Missouri. Previously located on Long Island, New York, residents of the Memphis area donated over &75,000 in 2012 to purchase and transport the H-10 back to the city of its manufacture.
 The EAA AirVenture Museum has a H-10 on display that was donated in 1971.

Data diffusion machine. Data diffusion machine (DDM) is a historical virtual shared memory architecture where data is free to migrate through the machine.

Shared memory machines are convenient for programming but do not scale beyond tens of processors. The DDM overcomes this problem by providing a virtual memory abstraction on top of a distributed memory machine. A DDM appears to the user as a conventional shared memory machine but is implemented using a distributed memory architecture.

Data diffusion machines were under active research in the late 1980s and early 1990s, but the research has ceased since then.

Mobile virtualization. Mobile virtualization is hardware virtualization on a mobile phone or connected wireless device.  It enables multiple operating systems or virtual machines to run simultaneously on a mobile phone or connected wireless device. It uses a hypervisor to create secure separation between the underlying hardware and the software that runs on top of it; this can be considered a form of an embedded hypervisor, or a close analogue. Virtualization technology has been used widely for many years in other fields such as data servers (storage virtualization) and personal computers (desktop virtualization).

Applications

Low cost platform
In 2008, the mobile industry became interested in using the benefits of virtualization technology for cell phones and other devices like tablets, netbooks and machine-to-machine (M2M) modules. With mobile virtualization, mobile devices can be manufactured more cheaply through the re-use of software and hardware, which shortens development time. One such example is using mobile virtualization to create low-cost Android smartphones without a separate baseband processor by running the applications and the baseband processor code in separate virtual machines on a single processor. Semiconductor vendors such as ST-Ericsson have adopted mobile virtualization as part of their low-cost Android platform strategy.

Enterprise
Another use case for mobile virtualization is in the enterprise market. Today, many consumers carry two mobile phones: one for business use and another for personal use. With mobile virtualization, mobile phones can support multiple domains/operating systems on the same hardware, so that the enterprise IT department can securely manage one domain (in a virtual machine), and the mobile operator can separately manage the other domain (in a virtual machine).

In September 2010, ARM announced that it would support a virtualization extension in its ARM Cortex-A15 processor.

Platforms 
Every mobile platform does virtualization differently.

Android 

In Android there are many ways to do virtualization, however due to limitations and operating system security restrictions some types of virtualization software will not be able to do all the tasks or run all types of applications.

Kentaro Toyama. Kentaro Toyama is a computer scientist and international development researcher, who works on the relationship of technology and global development. He is the W. K. Kellogg Professor at the University of Michigan School of Information and author of  Geek Heresy: Rescuing Social Change from the Cult of Technology.

Toyama was founding assistant director of Microsoft Research India, a Bangalore-based computer science laboratory, where he established the Technology for Emerging Markets group which conducts interdisciplinary research in the field of "information and communication technologies for development" (ICT4D). Together with AnnaLee Saxenian and Raj Reddy, he co-founded the International Conference on Information and Communication Technologies and Development, a global platform for rigorous, academic, interdisciplinary research in ICT4D.

Education
Toyama received a Ph.D. in Computer Science from Yale University, and an A.B. in Physics from Harvard University.

Research and career
Toyama's research spans several disparate areas, including ICT4D, development studies, computer vision, human-computer interaction, geographic information systems, and multimedia.
He is best known for his research in ICT4D, which includes technology projects such as MultiPoint, Text-Free User Interfaces, Warana Unwired, and Digital Green, as well as observational studies of rural telecenters, mobile phones in developing countries, and the limits of technology for international development.

He is an outspoken critic of the "technological utopianism" that he sees in initiatives such as One Laptop Per Child, and argues that technology only magnifies existing human intent and capacity. A two-part essay making this point appears in a Boston Review forum. The argument is expanded upon and extended further in Geek Heresy. He is also a faculty affiliate of the Science, Technology, and Public Policy (STPP) program at the Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy.

Toyama's research in computer vision involves automated tracking of objects in video. In 2002, he taught calculus at Ashesi University in Accra, Ghana.

Awards and honors
Toyama was named to the 2022 class of ACM Fellows, "for contributions to the innovation and critique of digital technology for socio-economic development and social justice".

A paper he co-authored with Andrew Blake was awarded the Marr Prize at the 2001 International Conference on Computer Vision. That work was a precursor to some of the technology in Microsoft's Kinect product.

Organica Technologies. Organica Technologies is a Hungarian company that builds wastewater treatment plants that can be used in agriculture, irrigation, or municipal areas using patented technology.  The company's goal is to treat, recycle, and conserve wastewater. Organica treatment plants are smaller than traditional options, and are created in greenhouses.  Founded in 1998, Organica is headquartered in Budapest, Hungary, with branch offices in India, Singapore, and the United States.

History
By the end of its first year in operation, Organica attracted a number of investors, including Environmental Investment Partners and the Swiss government. In December 2006, Organica signed a joint venture agreement with Veolia Water Solutions and Technologies. Organica sold its share in this venture in 2009. Organica has been a completely independent entity since.

Technology
Organica's wastewater treatment processes the water with the use of living organisms, specifically a 'Fixed-Bed Biofilm Activated Sludge' process. The organism's ability to self-organize maximizes the biological degradation of contaminants. The treatment plants enhance the natural forces used to purify water by harnessing the metabolic processes of living organism's ability to digest organic pollutants. The diversity of self-managing organisms provides a highly robust system resulting in a stable system. The clean water can be reused for irrigation, cooling towers, toilet usage, and other non-potable needs.

Field force automation. Field force automation (FFA) is the capture of field sales or service information in real time using communications technology, typically handheld PDAs, wireless devices, tablet PCs or mobile phones. The captured data is transferred immediately to back-end systems (ERP, CRM or accounting systems) through wireless connectivity (Wi-Fi, 3G, satellite or GPRS). This instant capture of information reduces time delays, avoids manual double entry data errors and enhances field force productivity.

From an operations perspective, availability of field information in near real time allows a business to plan delivery schedules, reduce inventory and monitor and control the field workers. Field force automation is seen as beneficial to businesses in regard of customer relations, maintaining skills among the field workforce, and limiting the size of this workforce.

The biggest challenge in field force automation is in developing a simple, but usable, user interface for the hand held device or mobile, and connectivity at the location of information capture. Connectivity can be overcome by having a system which can retain the information captured in the device cache and later synchronize with back-end systems ("thick client").
