Encyclopedia of Communication and Information

Geared for top college scholars and public libraries, this 3- quantity reference is meant as an introductory connection with a number of elements of the large region of communications and information-an sector so large, in truth, that the reason for an alphabetically prepared encyclopedia isn't transparent. A sampling of the 280 entries illustrates the matter: animal verbal exchange, physique photo (media impression on), Franklin (Benjamin), overall healthiness verbal exchange (careers in), language constitution, tune (popular), relationships (stages of), human-computer interplay, elections, Sesame road, gays and lesbians within the media, museums, and language acquisition.

Visual Information Representation, Communication and Image Processing

Discusses contemporary advances within the similar applied sciences of multimedia pcs, videophones, video-over-Internet, HDTV, electronic satellite tv for pc television and interactive computing device video games. The textual content analyzes methods of accomplishing more advantageous navigation suggestions, facts administration features, and better all through networking.

Handbook of research on telecommunications planning and management for business

These APIs are covered further in Chapter 8. 3 ETel ETel provides the lowest level interface to the telephony functionality within Symbian OS. Below ETel is the realm of the device-specific adaptation, which converts ETel API calls into whatever form is necessary for the specific baseband stack that is in use – this is the job of the TSY (Telephony SYstem module). Because ETel provides a very low-level API, Symbian implement a wrapper over this called ‘ETel 3rd party’, which provides a limited subset of the functionality available in the ETel API in an easy-to-use form.

A discussion of this API and the functionality available is in Chapter 7. 4 Serial Server The serial server provides, perhaps unsurprisingly, the interface to serial ports, both real and virtual. 4), provide access to specific technologies – RS-232 physical serial ports (rarely found on phones today), and Bluetooth, infrared and USB virtual serial ports. Some products contain additional, product-specific CSYs for communicating with other parts of the system, such as the cellular modem, but these are rarely useful to developers.

Otherwise, in all these calls the length of the descriptor is always set to the length of the data returned. In the case of using read continuations with a datagram or sequenced packet protocol, it indicates the number of bytes remaining in the current datagram, to allow an appropriately-sized buffer to be passed in on the next read to pick up the remaining part of the packet. Read() provides a simplified interface to Recv() when you don’t need to pass flags. An ongoing Recv() and Read() can be cancelled using CancelRecv() or CancelRead() respectively.
