The method further comprises, when activating the mobile phone, enabling at least one of the selection switches and writing at least one reference to branded content to a random access memory of the mobile phone based on a service plan associated with the mobile phone. | 2013-05-30 |
20130137418 | Virtual Trunking System - The present invention discloses a virtual trunking system developed on a value-added platform. At present, information islands are formed among different modes of trunkings, so that interconnection and intercommunication cannot be realized and interconnection and intercommunication of various trunkings with common communication network cannot be realized either. In the technical scheme adopted by the present invention, the virtual trunking system is characterized by comprising a mobile phone software module, a trunking dispatching desk, a terminal access server, a database server, an application server, a virtual trunking business module, a platform support module and a value-added platform, wherein the value-added platform is a CPCI (Compact Peripheral Component Interconnect) value-added platform which provides PCI (Peripheral Component Interconnect) slots and bus exchange; and the value-added platform accesses a public network through a digital relay or an IP (Internet Protocol). In the present invention, the value-added platform is interconnected with a public communication network and the mobile phone terminal serving as a client of the value-added platform is combined with the value-added platform, so that wireless trunking communication is realized. | 2013-05-30 |
20130137419 | Mobile App for Design Management Framework - Software allows images captured during product development on a mobile device (e.g., smartphone or other client device) to be uploaded to a design management system from the mobile device. Mark-up annotations and comments can be added to the images at the mobile device. Assignment of tasks related to the images can be made from the mobile device. | 2013-05-30 |
20130137420 | MECHANISM FOR FACILITATING DYNAMIC AND SEGMENT-BASED MONITORING OF CELLULAR NETWORK PERFORMANCE IN AN ON-DEMAND SERVICES ENVIRONMENT - In accordance with embodiments, there are provided mechanisms and methods for facilitating dynamic and segment-based monitoring of cellular network performance. In one embodiment and by way of example, a method includes dividing a cellular network path of a cellular network into a plurality of network segments, and monitoring performance of the cellular network at a first network segment of the plurality of network segments. The first network segment is associated with a first segment point includes a first computing device. The method may further includes generating first metrics based on first monitoring data relating to the first network segment, and forwarding the first metrics to a second segment point coupled with the first segment point over the first network segment. The second segment point includes a second computing device. | 2013-05-30 |
