Mobile-Communications Technology Faces The Challenges Of 2011

摘要

The mobile World Congress (MWC) in Barcelona is a global gathering of mobile-communications-technology companies and experts. Consequently, the conference and exhibition will see no shortage of important topics under discussion. Among those topics will certainly be the initiative by the Global Systems for Mobile Communications Association (GSMA) to form a task force of mobile operators. Those operators will explore the development of an embedded subscriber identification module (SIM) that can be remotely activated. "The traditional SIM has been an important innovation in mobile telephony and has provided many benefits to consumers in terms of security, portability of contacts, and ease of portability of devices across networks," explains Rob Con-way, who is both CEO and member of the GSMA board.
