OUR OPEN URBAN DATA PLATFORM (DKSR-OUP)
The DKSR OUP is an open-source urban data platform based on the EIP SCC reference architecture and on specifications according to DIN SPEC 91357. The core technology is based on the field-tested UrbanPulse© Plattform, developed by the urban software institute [ui!], which has already been successfully implemented, tested, and is continuously enhanced in over 40 municipalities. The platform has its particular strengths operating IoT-based applications with real-time functionalities (such as environmentally sensitive traffic control). These applications account for a large part of the smart city solutions that can benefit from an OUP.
The DKSR OUP focuses on minimal latency, meaning that the time between data acquisition and data provided is kept as low as possible, within a milliseconds range. In this way, sensor data can be processed, analyzed, and distributed in near real-time, and used to immediately respond to what is happening in the city, municipality, or region. This is achieved by the DKSR OUP software architecture, which is completely event-based.
Core strengths of the DKSR OUP
The DKSR-OUP is the first available tested, robust, open-source platform. This means that everyone can freely access the platform’s source code, ensuring that cities and regions do not become dependent on one vendor.
DKSR operates an Open Source Programme Office (OSPO) in which developments from the open-source community can be reviewed and ideally made available to all users free of charge. In this way, the DKSR-OUP becomes the core of a community of smart cities and regions.
The Open Urban Platform (OUP) of the DKSR is a (near-) real-time data platform that follows the vision of open urban platforms as expressed by the European Innovation Partnership Smart Cities and Communities (EIP-SCC) and defined as a standard in the DIN SPEC 91357framework.
The DKSR OUP focuses on minimal latency, meaning that the time between data acquisition and data provision is kept as short as possible. This allows sensor data to be processed, analyzed, and distributed in near real-time, and used to respond immediately to what is happening in the city, community, or region. With IoT entering the urban and municipal system landscape, applications with real-time functionalities (such as environmentally sensitive traffic control) make up a majority of smart city solutions that can benefit from an OUP.
As the first Open Urban Data Platform ever, the DKSR OUP solves the question of data sovereignty very concretely for you. Data is monitored and controlled via the integrated IDS Connector as a user interface. Behind this is the International Data Spaces Association (IDSA) with its specially developed IDS architecture: data can thus be exchanged in a secure data space and restricted for the agreed purpose. Who uses the data, who sees it, and how it is used is all decided by the user himself via the architecture.
Municipal administration, companies, and individuals can use the information collected, generated, and provided by DKSR-OUP to optimize their individual decisions and improve their digitized services and processes. In doing so, the platform is highly scalable, allowing its users to grow with their respective needs. It can be used both by partners who want to gain initial experience in the smart city sector and by those who are already successfully operating their own sensor platforms in a decentralized manner and are now aiming for cross-domain data integration as a next step.
The DKSR OUP is FIWARE certified. This means that we use a central FIWARE component to structure data and data models in a standardized way: the Orion Context Broker. Via the NGSI-LD format, we can thus quickly provide good applications from one municipality to all other users.
To break down the data silos of different sensor platforms and municipal management systems of the specific domains, the platform offers a connector technology that can link heterogeneous data sources from all municipal sectors and then homogenize them. Ultimately, the DKSR OUP provides fully integrated access to urban sensor data from the different urban domains and combines them with existing data sources, all of these based on smart data and smart services. In this way, the DKSR OUP unifies the diverse city data sources to better visualize and understand them and to better address city needs.

TCP/IP "Tent" Diagram
TCP/IP “Tent” diagram
When I arrived at Palm as part of the OEM Sales Team, our only enterprise client was IBM. At the time Palm was fighting for legitimacy in the retail market and awareness in the enterprise market.
The public perception of a Palm handheld was as a small, low-powered device that synchronized Contacts, Calendar, Tasks, and Memos with a PC or Mac via a cable. The challenge was to vividly present the potential of handheld computing for enterprise clients both large and small.
The very first Palm handhelds were IP devices, capable of navigating the internet. However, the implications of this were not broadly understood, even at Palm. After months of conversations with sales engineers, product managers, and Palm OS programmers, I developed this diagram.
At a glance you can see the potential for a Palm handheld to connect securely with broad range of LAN, WAN, and Internet data and services. This diagram was widely used by Palm sales teams, system engineers, business development teams, investor relations, and developer education in the USA, Asia/Pacific, and Europe. Eventually this slide was expanded into a navigable PowerPoint presentation, "Under The Hood" which explored these possibilities with greater detail.


Digital technologies can promote growth in an economy partly due to their capacity to reduce costs and improve the quality of delivery. However, to achieve this, high-speed and reliable internet and broadband are required. The latest data released by the Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC), the industry regulator, show that internet subscriptions stood at 139.4 million in July, representing a y/y decline of -5%. Furthermore, we noticed a m/m decline of c.431,000 in subscriptions.
The decline in subscriptions can be partly attributed to the temporary suspension of SIM card sales to ensure the achievement of the National Identification Number (NIN) registration exercise. Additionally, based on our channel checks, the stress associated with the NIN-SIM linkage has resulted in customers abandoning SIMs of devices that are not their primary source for communication or internet connectivity.
MTN Nigeria (MTNN) accounted for the largest share (42%) of total subscriptions though down -1.0% m/m in July ‘21. Airtel (-0.5%) and Glo (-0.9%) also recorded m/m decreases. Over the past year, there has been a visible shift to fibre broadband internet plans which do not necessarily need SIM cards to function. We note that some residential estates are increasingly using this service given the heavy reliance on internet services at home due to the newly adopted work-from-home approach.
In November ‘19, President Buhari launched the National Digital Economy Policy and Strategy. The strategy is hinged on eight critical pillars. One of the critical pillars is developing a solid infrastructure by deploying fixed and mobile broadband infrastructure to deepen broadband penetration and drive an inclusive and vibrant digital economy. Similarly, in September ‘21, the FGN approved the national policy for the fifth-generation (5G) network to boost the country’s digital economy. The national broadband plan set a target for the country to attain 70% broadband penetration at a price of N390 per 1GB of data (i.e. 1.3% of minimum wage).
Broadband subscription/penetration data (July '20 - July '21)
Broadband penetration in need of a leg-up
The latest national accounts show that Information and Communications Technology sector grew by 5.6% y/y and contributed 17.9% to the total GDP in Q2 ’21. This is slightly higher than its contributions in Q2 ’20 (17.8%) and Q1 ’21 (14.9%). It also showed that telecommunications grew by 5.9% y/y in Q2 ‘21 compared with 7.7% in Q1 ‘21 and 18.1% in Q2 ‘20.
We note that investments into the sector have declined steadily. Capital importation into the telecommunications sector declined by 138.2% from USD944.1m in ’14 to USD417.5m in ’20. This can be linked to the infrastructure deficit in the telecommunications sector, the high cost of services and access devices, low digital literacy, poor perception of broadband value, among others.
Clear policy and regulatory guidance are fundamental to the optimal distribution and uptake of broadband services. The evolving work conditions, travel restrictions due to covid-19, the rise of e-commerce, and integration of technology in daily activities show that the rollout of broadband services has the potential to address various socio-economic challenges, grow the economy and create jobs. Industry sources suggest that a 10% increase in broadband penetration can increase the GDP of an economy by 1.8 – 2.0%.

A dual sim mobile allows a cell phone user to have two lines of service on the same phone. Many dual sim mobiles allow a personal and business number to be used on the same device. A cell phone user can receive incoming calls through two separate numbers, and place calls through a work and personal number.
Dual sim mobiles can be valuable in rural areas and when traveling abroad. Some world phones incorporate two or more sim cards, allowing the user access to different cell phone networks. This can allow one phone to receive coverage over a huge area. Some models allow interoperability between different networks: one sim card provides 2G access, while another provides 3G access.
While there are many benefits to using more than one sim card, there are some disadvantages. Two sim cards usually increase the power drain on a battery by 30%, reducing talk and standby time. In addition, a dual sim phone may be slightly heavier than a single sim phone. Some require separate antennas and transceivers, contingent on the cell phone networks being used.
Some Chinese manufacturers have released triple sim cards, which allow increased coverage in some areas. Many parts of China don’t have consistent cell phone coverage from a single provider. By using a triple sim card, it’s possible to have consistent coverage in many areas.
There are some limitations to dual sim mobiles. In addition to a shorter battery life, a dual sim phone will require two separate cell phone plans. For users trying to increase coverage through multiple cell service providers, a dual sim mobile will not allow one to have a single unified telephone number. A cell phone user will have a different number assigned for each cell phone service line.
Dual sim mobiles are only available on GSM networks. CDMA networks don’t use a sim card in a telephone: they rely on a unique ID embedded inside a phone, called the ESN. It’s illegal to change the ESN in a phone. Some manufacturers are actively looking for ways to incorporate multiple ESNs into a single cell phone, but no devices are publicly available yet.
Cell phone technology has changed dramatically over the past few years. While a dual sim mobile may not be appropriate for everyone, it can be valuable. It allows for increased cell phone coverage, better range, and seperate service lines one a single device.


To further support hybrid workers, Cisco Webex is launching major updates to its Webex suite, including features to further support flexible working, a partnership with Microsoft, a brand-new whiteboarding app, and new functionalities to help improve security and manageability.
The announcements of the new capabilities were made Tuesday at the company’s annual WebexOne conference. Speaking at a media roundtable event, general manager of security and collaboration at Cisco, Jeetu Patel, said that even though most companies have been working in a hybrid way for a big chunk of time, there is still often an issue of disconnect that comes from not being in the same physical space as your colleagues.
“The reality is that this problem can’t be solved in isolation,” he said. “It’s no longer just a tech problem, there’s a cultural aspect to it.”
While workers need to be conscious of how they behave and engage with each other in hybrid meetings for remote and on-premises staff, Patel said that organizations also need to be aware that there’s a space configuration and facilities aspect to tackling this issue.
“What we’ve seen is that this requires a holistic solution,” Patel said.
Reimagining the workspace
The majority of the new capabilities Cisco has added to its Webex platform fall under the umbrella of what the company describes as a “reimagining” of the workplace.
Despite hybrid and remote work models having firmly cemented themselves as an established way of working, an October 2022 report by Frost & Sullivan looking at the state of the global video conferencing device market found that only 6.4% of meeting rooms and classrooms are video-enabled.
To overcome this lack of deployment, Cisco has formed a number of partnerships and is offering new capabilities to aid video interoperability and make meeting experiences more seamless. For example, iPhone and iPad users can now share content from the rear-facing or front-facing camera via the Webex Meetings app and annotate over what they’re seeing with Mobile Camera Share.
Other announcements include a new Cisco Room Kit EQ—an AI-based computing appliance that provides improved meeting experiences by video-enabling large spaces for inclusive, hybrid work.
The company has also announced a new Hybrid Workspace Design Guide to help customers design next-generation hybrid workplaces. Encompassing Cisco’s Smart Building Solutions such as collaboration, networking and security technology, it also offers embedded camera and audio intelligence. Furthermore, Webex Control Hub is now integrated with Cisco Spaces, providing employees critical information, such as real-time occupancy and air quality updates, designed to improve the in-office experience.
Elsewhere, updates to Webex Events and Webinars will give users access to a virtual lobby for online events that will support a variety of customizations for agendas, speaker bios, and sponsors. New content widgets and production tools have also been introduced.
Finally, a new partnership with Microsoft allows users to have the Microsoft Teams Rooms feature on Cisco’s collaboration devices, while an update to Webex Calling includes new integration with Microsoft Teams, enabling users to make enterprise-grade Webex Calls seamlessly from within the Teams interface.
Patel compared the video conferencing sector to the growing entertainment market, insomuch as employees often have different collaboration platforms to facilitate different needs, in the same way the multitude of streaming services currently available to customers all offer something unique.
By making Microsoft Teams Rooms natively available on Cisco devices, the company is trying to eliminate some of the stress that comes with constantly switching between platforms.
“Microsoft Teams actually gets better when used on a Cisco device because you can get benefit of all [Cisco’s AI] capabilities,” Patel said.
All-new digital whiteboarding solution
Cisco Webex has long offered users a basic in-meeting whiteboarding tool to help boost collaboration. However, Tuesday the company announced the launch of its new Webex Whiteboard app, a standalone tool that will form part of the Webex Suite and can be used in and outside of Webex meetings.
When speaking to customers, Abhay Kulkarni, general manager of the Webex app in the Cisco team collaboration group said that one of the things that is most often cited as being missed is the ability to brainstorm with people on the fly.
“Having tools available that allow you to whiteboard from anywhere, whether you’re on a laptop, tablet or mobile phone was very important,” he said.
While Cisco has also partnered with third party whiteboard vendors like Miro and Murel, Kulkarni explained that the company wanted to continue to develop its own in-house whiteboard innovations as facilitating the type of impromptu collaboration it can inspire is an important use case that Cisco wanted to help solve.
The new whiteboarding app will be available to customers from November 2022.
With the new Webex Whiteboard app in the Webex Suite, users can start or join a whiteboard from a browser, the Webex App, or a Cisco device. Whiteboards can be combined with Slido polls and saved and shared in a Webex space for asynchronous and collaborative working.
Alongside offering new and improved whiteboarding capabilities to users, Cisco Webex is making its asynchronous work tool Vidcast generally available. Launched last year, the company estimates it has saved users from 47 million minutes of meetings.
Over 40 new innovations for the tool have also been announced, including an AI-powered editing capability that reduces the time it takes to create content, and a Slido integration that incorporates polling and audience engagement into shared video content.
Secure by design
The final set of announcements from Cisco Webex extent from its first product principle: “To be secure by design and private by default.”
Consequently, Kulkarni said that the platform’s new security updates help to ensure IT operations are deployed, optimized, and monitored effectively and securely.
Cisco Webex’s new audio water marking capability uniquely tags audio streams to every participant in a confidential meeting with a marker that cannot be heard by the human ear, so that leaked recordings can be traced back to whoever released them. The idea is to allow organizations to better protect intellectual property in today’s hybrid world with more highly dispersed and remote teams.
Additionally, the new Control Hub as a Coach capability offers Cisco Webex customers a digital coach that guides IT admins to achieve best practice set up, adoption quality, and create greater efficiency for managing and supporting workers.

Bandwidth is essential for all of us, if its not enough or over used then it will be a problem. Thats mean you need a network monitoring tools to keep an eye of. There’s a simple tool to diagnose TCP and UDP connection issues in real time. There are two that I have found that work very well for this type of debugging.
IPTraf is a console-based network statistics utility for Linux. It gathers a variety of figures such as TCP connection packet and byte counts, interface statistics and activity indicators, TCP/UDP traffic breakdowns, and LAN station packet and byte counts.
# An IP traffic monitor that shows information on the IP traffic passing over your network. Includes TCP flag information, packet and byte counts, ICMP details, OSPF packet types.
# General and detailed interface statistics showing IP, TCP, UDP, ICMP, non-IP and other IP packet counts, IP checksum errors, interface activity, packet size counts.
# A TCP and UDP service monitor showing counts of incoming and outgoing packets for common TCP and UDP application ports
# A LAN statistics module that discovers active hosts and shows statistics showing the data activity on them
# TCP, UDP, and other protocol display filters, allowing you to view only traffic you’re interested in.
# Supports Ethernet, FDDI, ISDN, SLIP, PPP, and loopback interface types.
# Utilizes the built-in raw socket interface of the Linux kernel, allowing it to be used over a wide range of supported network cards.
# Full-screen, menu-driven operation.
IPTraf which is a IP LAN monitor that generates various network statistics including TCP info, UDP counts, ICMP and OSPF information, Ethernet load info, and IP checksum errors. Type below command to install:
$ yum install iptraf
$ sudo apt-get install iptraf
Once installed, executing IPTraf from the command line will launch an ascii based menu system that will allow you to view IP traffic counts, detailed interface statistics, and protocol breakdowns per physical interface.
One nice feature of iftop is each flow represented as a bargraph relative to each flow’s utilization. This allows you to quickly identify a connection using a large amount of bandwidth. Type below command to install:
$ yum install iftop
$ sudo apt-get install iftop
If you have others network interface, you can use command like:
$ iftop -i eth1
These tools are very useful to provide you a glimpse into what types of traffic are flowing right now. I often use these tools to look at a server’s current bandwidth utilization, top flows by source and destination, and protocol breakdowns~

From Audrey Flagg, Marketing Coordinator, KFC Yum Center
Louisville, Ky. – In honor of Veterans Day and National Recycling Day, AEG Facilities will be collecting new and gently used cell phones for national non-profit, Cell Phones for Soldiers at the KFC Yum! Center.
Fans are being asked to bring the phones to the University of Louisville men’s basketball game vs. Manhattan on Sunday, November 11 from 2:30 p.m. to 4 p.m. They will be collected in the main lobby.
In 2011, Cell Phones for Soldiers shared 690,000 communication tools with military families, providing more than 41 million minutes of talk time. These donated cell phones are being kept out of landfills where the hazardous chemicals and heavy metals they contain can pollute the earth.
Donated devices are sent to ReCellular, the world’s largest recycler of mobile devices, before being sent to the soldiers.


One cellular company is pitching a new way to unlock phones without having to touch any buttons. But it means users will have to get a tattoo — kind of.
Motorola is pitching a digital tattoo as a time-saving solution — but it has to be replaced every five days (Image source: YouTube).
Motorola is pitching a “digital tattoo” as a time-saving and security solution, claiming the average human might waste up to nine hours a year unlocking their phone.
“The average person unlocks their phone 39 times per day. At an average of 2.3 seconds to unlock a device,” the company says in a video. “It is so cumbersome that 35 percent of users don’t lock their phone.”
If you are tired of “wasting” so many precious seconds tapping in a password or swiping your combination, this might be up your alley. But don’t get swept up by the hype: The technology is less than revolutionary.
For the tattoo, Motorola employs a technique that is several years old, using NFC tags to create the key components of the system: NFC tags are an application of radio frequency identification technology, but unlike most RFIDs — which make an effort to give a long reading range — NFC deliberately limits this range to within roughly an inch, or even touching the tag. Motorola and Samsung have previously pitched the use of NFC tags for phones through clips to ease the unlocking process.
VivaLnk, Motorola’s creative partner for the digital tattoo concept, did provide a unique twist: It embedded NFC tags into what is essentially a sticker that can be applied to the skin, much like a Band-Aid, but with an extended life — closer to that of a nicotine patch.
Then, you simply touch your phone to the digital tattoo and — voilà — your phone is unlocked.
“VivaLnk’s breakthrough eSkin technology has made it possible for us to create thin, flexible electronics that are adhesive, inexpensive, and disposable, and can communicate with […]


Media Release - Low Earth Orbiting (LEO) Satellite Internet Subsidy
Published on 08 February 2024
MEDIA RELEASE | WEDDIN SHIRE COUNCIL
WEDDIN RESIDENTS ELIGIBLE FOR $1500
SATELLITE INTERNET SUBSIDY
Weddin residents are set to benefit from a new Low Earth Orbiting (LEO) Satellite Internet Subsidy Program. The program supports access to internet coverage via the LEO satellite internet network, as an alternative to the National Broadband Network Sky Muster satellite service. Residents may be more familiar with LEO Satellite Internet under its commercial name of Starlink.
From today, 8 February 2024, when eligible residents purchase a new LEO satellite internet connection, they can apply to the program and receive a subsidy of up to $1500, to cover costs associated with the satellite dish, hardware such as router, adapter, mounts and cables and associated installation costs. The program will end when the funds are exhausted, or 30 April 2024, whichever comes first.
Mayor Craig Bembrick stated “I am thrilled to announce the LEO Satellite Internet Subsidy Program. This program will support resident’s access to high speed internet. I’m excited that such a pragmatic program has been developed for the Weddin community”.
Stage One of the program has been developed for new LEO satellite connections made after 8 February 2024. Stage One of the program is not retrospective and expenses incurred before this date are ineligible. Depending on uptake of Stage One of the program, a Stage Two may be implemented. A Stage Two may allow for customers with existing LEO satellite internet to make a retrospective claim for subsidy. Applications for Stage Two may open on 1 March 2024.
In recognition of the timing of this project overlapping with the peak annual farming pressures of sowing, applicants may submit their Stage Two applications from 8 February 2024. This is to ease undue pressure on our agricultural community during what is already a stressful time. This allowance will be done with the understanding that a Stage Two is not guaranteed, nor will these applications enter the assessment queue before a Stage Two is officially announced and opened.
“The majority of the Weddin Shire, outside of the town of Grenfell, is serviced by the NBN Satellite network. This network limits resident’s ability to capitalise on the opportunities that come from reliable high speed internet, including social, health and economic opportunities. This new program will help address the digital divide in our community” continued Mayor Bembrick.
The project guidelines, outlining eligibility criteria and the application form are available at https://www.weddin.nsw.gov.au/Council/Forms
For more information on the project, contact Weddin Shire Council’s Economic Development Officer Auburn Carr on 02 6343 1864 or email@example.com

SHORT ESSAY 2: SEMINAR IN ADVANCED COMPUTING APPLICATIONS FOR MANAGEMENT
JOHN E. ACHESON
San Francisco State University
Of all the technological issues we have discussed during the entire semester (corporate and consumer level), what are the top three things that will influence our lives in the next five years? Justify in a few paragraphs.
Networking, digital and integration and the top three areas that should influence our lives in the next five years. Under the assumption that nano and sensor technology comes about as promised, there will be no limit to a fully integrated networked digital world We’ve already heard about mobile phones that can transmit ideas and even smells but what about the reality of integrating the IT to power this new world? Once technology has the ability to sense, the living and information worlds will collide to extend life I believe.
According to Carli Fiorina the CEO of the new Hewlett Packard corporation, the language for the network is digital, real-time is the definition of networked, and integration is getting things to talk to each other.
The analog to digital conversion is still taking place and should be completed in the next five years. Even the internet still runs over copper lines for the last mile, but is very close to being fully digital. Under MetCalfe’s law, for each smart device that’s connected to the fully integrated and digital internet, adds power exponentially.
That’s quite scary considering there are hundreds of millions of users on the net. An example of the power of digital, real-time integration might be spamming a foul smell into a cell phone and disrupting the entire network, similar to a stink bomb. Of course there are powerful uses that only one can imagine about, most of which will probably be in medicine.
At Stanford’s bases group, I witnessed a presentation by a leading venture capitalist and techno enthusiast who mentioned that he already uses real time integrated sensor technology over a network to know every single morning what time his elderly mother wakes up. He lives far away from her and she has a terminal illness. The new model allows for IT to act as a 3rd party with intelligence and not just an information system with sensor technology. In other words, the millionaire and Stanford cardinal had a cheap watch dog made up of Radio Shack components because of MetCalfe’s law. He could know down the second whether his mother took her medication or woke up late and could respond in a life threatening emergency.
Clearly, the world will be different in five years after the analog to digital conversion is complete, and the various networks around the world are fully integrated, and we’re able to move information around the globe in real time from any device.
I’m a believer that the information revolution has just begun and the next 96 years will be loaded with some amazing surprises. I think the next boom will be when IT meets nano-medicine.

Sim Authentication Forensics ICC-ID unique number identity
Integrated Circuit Card Identifier. An ICCID is a unique number assigned to each SIM card.
Sim-Subscriber Identity Module
The UICC (Universal Integrated Circuit Card) is a smart card which contains account information and memory that is used to enable GSM cellular telephones. One of the applications running on the smart card is the SIM, or Subscriber Identity Module. In common parlance the term "UICC" is not used an the phrase "SIM" is used to describe the smart card itself. Because the SIM is just one of several applications running on the smart card, a given card could, in theory, contain multiple SIMs. This would allow multiple phone numbers or accounts to be accessed by a single UICC. This is seldom seen, though there is at least one "12-in-1" SIM card being advertised at present.
ICC-ID is a unique identifier
Each SIM is internationally identified by its ICC-ID (Integrated Circuit Card ID). ICC-IDs are stored in the SIM card and can also be engraved or printed on the SIM card’s body during a process called personalization. The number is up to 18 digits long with an addition of a single “check digit” that is used for error detection. This single digit allows us to detect an input error of digits, mistyped digits or a permutation of two successive digits. This digit was calculated using the Luhn algorithm.
A typical SIM (19 digits) example 89 91 10 1200 00 320451 0, provide several details as follows:
- The first two digits (89 in the example) refers to the Telecom Id.
- The next two digits (91 in the example) refers to the country code (91-India).
- The next two digits (10 in the example) refers to the network code.
- The next four digits (1200 in the example) refers to the month and year of manufacturing.
- The next two digits (00 in the example) refers to the switch configuration code.
- The next six digits (320451 in the example) refers to the SIM number.
- The last digit which is separated from the rest is called the “check digit”.
These digits can be further grouped for additional information:
- The first 3 to 4 digits represents the Mobile Country Code (MCC) (Some cards only have 3 digits to represent the Telecom ID and country code.)
- The next 2 digits represent the Mobile Network Code (MNC, AKA the mobile operator)
- The next 12 digits is the number represent the Home Location Register
- And mentioned above, the “check digit”
Location Area Identity
Operation networks for cell phone devices are divided into area locations called Location Areas. Each location is identified with its own unique identification number creating the LAI (Location Area Identity). A phone will store this number on its SIM card so it knows what location it’s in and to be able to receive service. If a phone were to change to a new Location Area, it stores the new LAI in the SIM card, adding to a list of all the previous LAIs it has been in. This way if a phone is powered down, when it boots back up, it can search its list of LAIs it has stored until it finds the one its in and can start to receive service again. This is much quicker than scanning the whole list of frequencies that a telephone can have access on. This is a real plus for forensic investigators because when a SIM card is reviewed, they can get a general idea of where the SIM card has been geographically. In turn this tells them where the phone has been and can then relate back to where the individual who owns the phone has been.
Information inside the UICC can be protected with a PIN and a PUK.
A PIN locks the SIM card until correct code is entered. Each phone network sets the PIN of SIM to a standard default number (this can be changed via handset). If PIN protection is enabled, the PIN will need to be entered each time phone is switched on. If the PIN is entered incorrectly 3 times in a row, the SIM card will be blocked requiring a PUK from the network/service provider.
A PUK is needed if the PIN is entered incorrectly 3 times and the SIM is blocked (phone is unable to make and receive calls/texts). The PUK can be received from the network provider, or possibly the GSM cell phone manual. Caution: if PUK is entered 10 times incorrectly, the SIM card is permanently disabled and must be exchanged.

And many small businesses are also utilizing SIP trunks to make the most of VoIP systems, which provide access to advanced features like disaster recovery, call accounting and call routing.
One of the main advantages of VoIP systems is their easy setup, because there’s little to no wiring involved with these systems as compared to more traditional PBX systems.
Cloud-Based Virtual Phone Systems
Also known as hosted PBX, this is another popular PBX phone system option for businesses of all sizes. This is often the preferred option among larger companies, because this is the type of system that suits unique needs oriented around a large number of users.
In this system, a company’s telecommunications will go through a router that’s connected to the Web, and this is a great option for remote workers and companies that are spread out geographically. If your company has a lot of international clients, then there’s a lot to love about virtual phone systems.
Some of the most popular features within this system include:
- Call forwarding
- Auto attendants
- Conference calls
- Call holding
- Voicemail to email
- And much more!
And on top of these features, a lot of businesses love how these systems don’t require an extensive amount of hardware. This makes cloud-based phone systems a very economical and convenient option.
Virtual PBX Phone Systems
Virtual PBX systems are like the light version of cloud-based phone systems. When you use this type of PBX system, you’ll be able to route your business calls through VoIP extensions, cell phones and landlines.

Server Network Hardware
Understand exactly what networking hardware a dedicated server possesses and in what ways it could have an affect on your website’s overall performance.
How quickly an internet site will open is dependent not just on the Internet connection of the website visitor, but also on the connection of the hosting server where the site is hosted and on the network infrastructure - routers, server network card, etcetera. Slow connection or hardware which is unable to handle a high volume of inbound and outbound traffic might have powerful influence on the user experience of your website visitors and the performance of your site because people will probably see error messages that the website is not available or it will take some time for your content to load. In case such a thing happens, it's not likely that the visitors will return to the internet site. For that reason you have to always examine the connectivity of any hosting machine that you obtain and not just the main hardware components such as hard drive, central processing unit and physical memory.
Server Network Hardware in Dedicated Servers
The dedicated servers that we offer you include gigabit network cards which are tested alongside all the other hardware components before and after any new hosting server is put together as to ensure that we will not use a faulty part which can cause a problem eventually. We also take advantage of the newest hardware for our internal network within the Chicago data center where we offer the dedicated plans. That includes routers, switches and hardware firewalls which could easily handle enormous incoming and outgoing traffic to any server, while any traffic that isn't legitimate will be filtered and shall not use up your system resources. The continuous access to the facility is ensured by using redundant backbone Internet suppliers. That way we guarantee the fast and reliable connection to all of our hosting servers, so your internet sites and applications shall be functioning at top speed all of the time.


For testing and debugging it is a good idea to make an interface for the PC. This interface should be able to act as master and as slave. The master part is clear, the slave part is needed in order to monitor the bus and display all commands for example. The schematic can be downloaded here.
It uses a MAX232 as a RS232-to-5V convertor, next to the transmit and receive line it also offers one output and one input to the PC. The input is for detecting the interrupt signal, the output is for disconnecting the PC from the bus if it is placed in “listen” mode when another master is active in the setup. Also here the RS485 bus is created using the MAX489 and two RJ45 connectors in order to be part of the daisy chained slaves. The jumpers for terminating the bus and to activate the pull-up on the interrupt line only needs to be placed if the PC is the active master, in “listen” mode both should be removed.
Also this board is now being produced at EuroCircuits.
