Preliminary
Tutorial Information
Title: Pervasive Computing: Finding Value in the Emerging Infrastructure
Speaker: Rick Simonian, Vice President for Telecom Engineering of Harris Corporation
Abstract:
We are experiencing a worldwide proliferation of mobile computing
devices, a convergence of voice and data networks, an explosion of
accessible information, and a growing expectation from users to be
able to access this information securely anytime, anywhere. And
yet they have an expectation that their communication costs will
continue to decline, while the value they get goes up. In this
talk we will look at some of the forces driving this change,
examine the convergence trends, and consider where the users will
find value in the era of pervasive computing and pervasive
information.
Speaker Bio:
Rick Simonian is Vice President of Engineering with Harris Corporation
in Melbourne, Florida. Harris is a $2B high-tech communications and
information processing company, providing products and services to
customers around the world. Rick's group within Harris primarily
provides U.S. Government agencies with large, complex communication and
information processing systems for various uses, such as weather data
management and processing, satellite image processing, wide-band high
speed communications, voice switching, air to ground communication,
tactical communications, large scale archival and dissemination systems,
and information assurance. Rick has extensive background in software
project management and software processes, application of
object-oriented analysis and design techniques, research and development
planning, and management of information technology advances. He has
been with Harris Corporation in various engineering roles since 1985.
Rick has a BS in Computer Science from the College of Engineering at
