India to conduct third interceptor missile trial in November
(Source from Bangalore Live)

Bangalore: India is preparing to conduct the third trial of its advanced interceptor missile in November from the Chandipur-on-sea interim test range in coastal Orissa, a top defence official said Friday.

“Preparations are on to conduct the interceptor missile test for building an indigenous defence shield in early November. It is aimed at intercepting and destroying ballistic missiles from a long range,” defence scientist V.K. Saraswat told IANS here.

The configuration of the upcoming trial will be different from the previous one, conducted in December 2007, as the attempt this time is to approach higher kill altitude, with accurate interception.

“We have already conducted a test in endo-atmosphere at a distance of 48 km. We are aiming at much higher altitude in exo-atmosphere, which is 50-75 km above the earth,” said Saraswat, chief controller of research & development of the missile programme at the Defence Research & Development Organisation (DRDO).

The 7.5-metre interceptor missile will be fired within seconds after an incoming missile is launched from the test range. The target missile will be a modified version of the Prithvi ballistic missile.

“The test will reinforce our capability in installing a two-layered ballistic missile defence (BMD) shield to protect vulnerable areas from an incoming enemy missile and strengthen our national security,” Saraswat said on the sidelines of a conference on 'Networking and Network-centric Operations', organised by the Computer Society of India.

The interceptor will be equipped with inertial navigation system and electro-mechanical actuators to enable it to perform critical manoeuvres required to engage the incoming missile during the latter's terminal phase.

The first interception test of a missile was conducted successfully at an altitude of 50 km in exo-atmosphere in November 2006.

“With the third test, we will have the entire BMD capability to detect, intercept and destroy intermediate-range and inter-continental ballistic missiles in the 5,000 km (3,000 mile) coming from any country,” Saraswat added.

India had already demonstrated that it was capable of intercepting short-range targets in up to 2,000-2,500 km range.

The BMD gives India membership of the select club of Israel, Russia and the US in developing and possessing such technology once the system is rolled out.

The defence system's tracking and fire control radars have been developed by DRDO in collaboration with Israel and France.

Bangalore: Teacher Hangs Child, Commits Suicide

noreply@blogger.com (Surendran) — Wed, 3 Sep 2008 07:58:00 -0700

Teacher Hangs Child, Commits Suicide

Bangalore, Sep 3: Mohan Kumari (25), working as teacher in a private school in the city, committed suicide on the night of Monday September 1, after hanging her 18-month-old child.

Kumari, wife of silversmith Murugan, was a spendthrift. Her husband Murugan said that she was trying to live beyond the family means and was frequently criticized by family members and relatives for this attitude. The couple was living in Srirampuram police station limits.

Murugan said, his wife did not open the door when he came back from work at about 10.30 pm on Monday September 1 and he then broke open the door with help from the landlord who resides downstairs. He found his wife and son hanging in the room.

It is thought that Mohan Kumari killed her child and later hung herself from the roof. In a four-page-long suicide note addressed to her mother and three brothers, she said that no one was responsible for her death. But people who know her closely feel that she was mentally bogged down by incessant criticism from family and relatives, on her spending habit.

IT Outsourcing increased at 5.9 Percent.

noreply@blogger.com (Surendran) — Mon, 1 Sep 2008 12:08:00 -0700

Bangalore IT : IT outsourcing in the US to increase at 5.9 per cent

Bangalore Latest News : The American IT outsourcing market is expected to increase at a compound annual growth rate of 5.9 per cent, from $13.3 billion in 2006 to $17.7 billion by 2011, a new report has said.

There will be continued shift within federal market away from a government-owned, government-operated model towards a contract-operated approach, the report said.

This shift, it says, is fuelled by the impending federal IT workforce shortage, war in Iraq, and federal contract spending slowdown.

The report has been prepared by INPUT which helps companies develop federal, state, and local government business and counts 1,300 members, including small specialised companies, new entrants to the public sector and the largest government contractors an d agencies.

According to the report, perhaps the most important factor leading towards a greater reliance on outsourcing in the future is the fact that a significant portion of the federal technology-related workforce is entering retirement age.

To obtain the IT talent required and to minimize the costs of acquiring new technologies in relatively short time frames, spending in the areas of business process outsourcing and application services will contribute the greatest growth to the federal ou tsourcing market over the forecast period, the report said.

BPO Invites Parents

noreply@blogger.com (Surendran) — Sun, 31 Aug 2008 10:15:00 -0700

BPO invites parents to check out the workplace
(Source from Hindu News)

BANGALORE: Mortarboards, black robes, tassels and caps thrown into the air… seems like a scene out of a college graduation ceremony, doesn’t it? And what if we were to say that the course duration ranged from three to eight weeks and equipped you with fancy accents to converse with people through the night? Now, does it sound more like a call centre?

While companies have been reported to have tried everything from quarterly appraisals to free Snicker vending machines (which has worked, of course!), 24 x 7, a business process outsourcing (BPO), has gone one step ahead. The company recently organised a graduation ceremony for its trainees, where parents and family members participated and get a preview into the lives of these call centre employees.

With the average attrition rate in most companies being quoted at 15 per cent by industry survey reports, companies have realised that fat pay cheques may lure the young and the restless; however, that alone is not enough to retain them. Human resource (HR) analysts in companies are working round-the-clock to find that perfect formula which will keep the fast and furious employee fastened to his seat.
Improvised

Tapping in on the psyche of the average young Indian, whose decisions are much-rooted in the counselling provided by family members, this BPO has started with an improvised version of the good old parent-teacher meeting, popularly known as PTA. “The whole experience reminded me of going to school to attend one of those parent-teacher interactions. It was like a trip down memory lane for me,” says Mary Sagaya, whose son graduated to the work floor this month.
Family’s role

So what is it that prompted such an out-of-the-ordinary HR strategy? “We realised that the family is integral to any decision made by a person. So it is important for us to address these issues,” says Nina Nair, vice-president, HR, 24 x 7. In fact, that’s not all…if parents do not approve of the job, HR prefers to not extend the job offer at all. “We have a counselling session for them. But we believe that if parents are convinced of the job and career aspects, there are more chances that the employees will stay on with us,” she explains. Though, this may seem unusual, even to the extent of being far-fetched to the cynical few, 24 x 7 wants to make this a quarterly feature for its employees.
Security issue

With reports in the media shedding light on the lack of safety regulations, parents are often worried about the safety of their wards. “After reading in the papers about the rape and murder of a young girl, my mother was apprehensive. When she came here not only was she excited, she told me that she thought it was the right place for me to work,” says Rinta Vinayan, an employee.

Her mother was introduced to the security guards that accompany the cabs and was also shown around the campus.

Review of SSLC Exam Pattern

noreply@blogger.com (Surendran) — Sun, 31 Aug 2008 10:08:00 -0700

Expert panel to review SSLC exam pattern
(Source from Hindu News)

Bangalore: Tenth standard students studying under the Karnataka State syllabus may have to answer a different pattern of questions from the next academic year.

The Government has given the go-ahead for appointing a panel of experts to review the examination pattern of the Secondary School Leaving Certificate (SSLC).

However, the examinations for this academic year, starting on March 31, will stick to the prevailing pattern.

The existing system, with a heavy emphasis on multiple-choice and short-answer questions, has come in for criticism from several quarters.

“The argument is that it orients students towards rote learning rather than reasoning. It is felt that students are increasingly becoming incapable of writing essays and analytical answers,” said Commissioner of Public Instruction Kumar Naik.
Weightage

The panel is expected to go into the question of whether the weightage given multiple-choice questions in the present pattern is warranted or needs to be changed.

It was in the year 2006 that the system with an emphasis on multiple-choice questions was introduced.

The paper was divided into Section A and Section B, with Section A dedicated to multiple choice questions.

The circular issued by the Karnataka Secondary Education Board on September 15, 2005, insisted that answers in Section B too should be to the point and “students should desist from writing unnecessarily long-winding answers with inconsequential details”.

The recent thinking on the examination system, however, seems to be more in favour of testing a student’s analytical skills.

It may noted here that the Central Board of Secondary Education has announced its decision to dedicate 20 per cent of the questions to testing the student’s critical thinking skills rather than rote learning from the coming examinations for 10th and 12th standards.

CBSE chairman Ashok Ganguly recently announced that there would be a paradigm shift in the CBSE from More of The Same (MOTS) system based on repetition and stereotypes to Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) with emphasis on interpretation and synthesis of knowledge.

Mobile connectivity: Options galore

noreply@blogger.com (Surendran) — Mon, 25 Aug 2008 11:55:00 -0700

Connectivity everywhere

Mobile connectivity: Options galore

Wi-Fi and WiMAX have enabled the permeability of Internet connectivity to the handheld device. GPRS and CDMA spell convenience and 3G will take it a step further

Wireless technologies are starting to offer a reliable alternative to fixed-line access, suggesting that widespread and affordable connectivity can be provided to every region, village, and person in India. Wireless access is more convenient now as multiple radios can be found on one device. Although the technology has been around for a decade now, it is just starting to catch on with Indian enterprises. In the last three months there has been significant movement in the wireless computing segment. Wireless equipment makers have recorded jump in sales and many systems integrators are preparing to enter this space. Some have already completed wireless deployments with the help of leading Internet service providers who are offering last mile wireless connectivity.

Indian carriers have acquired a spectrum to deploy wireless broadband services and expressed interest in going ahead with WiMAX. BSNL, the market leader, has announced plans to offer WiMAX services in Chennai, Bangalore, Kolkata, New Delhi, and Mumbai in 2006. Apart from BSNL, Sify, Bharti Airtel, Reliance, and MTNL are crafting customer-friendly strategies to tap the market. Players in the field of Wi-Fi and WiMax are working with these service providers.

WiMAX and Wi-Fi provide wireless access to the Internet from a notebook, personal digital assistant (PDA) or a similar hand-held device. Some mobile phones and PDAs now come with Wi-Fi chips. With mobile phones, this means conventional networks can be bypassed and inexpensive long-distance calls made using VoWiFi (Voice over Wireless Fidelity).

What’s on the data menu

Service Provider Data Services

BSNL Broadband, Wi-Fi, WiMAX, GSM, to launch 3G
Sify Wi-Fi, WiMAX, Value-added services through mobile phone

Airtel EDGE and GPRS enabled Data Card,
Value-added services through mobile phone, Wi-Fi, WiMAX

Reliance Value-added services through mobile phone, Wi-Fi, WiMAX
MTNL GSM, CDMA, Wifine service, Wi-Fi, WiMAX, to launch 3G
Vodafone Value-added services through mobile phone, Wi-Fi, WiMAX

The state of connectivity

BSNL is held to be India’s largest mobile operator with over 20 million subscribers. It claims to provide the cheapest call rates and roaming with the widest network that covers every corner of the country. As the Indian cellular market explodes, BSNL has floated a tender of 60 million GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) lines for the next three years. BSNL remains committed to increase India’s teledensity and promote the use of mobile telephony up to the block level.

Cellular service providers offer Internet services wherein the handset acts as a modem. While GSM data services have been around for as long as cellular networks themselves, the expensive, unreliable and slow (9.6 Kbps) connectivity, plus the fact that you still needed an account with an Internet service provider, made GSM-based Net access pretty unpopular in the past.

Things changed around 2003 when GSM operators began providing GPRS (General Packet Radio Services) connectivity and offered speeds that compared favourably with basic rate ISDN. CDMA (Code-Division Multiple Access) providers offered speeds as high as 128 Kbps. By early 2005, it had become common place for users to utilise their mobile phones for accessing the Net, especially notebook users. Even where Wi-Fi is available at hotels and other transit points, users find it more convenient to use their existing GPRS or CDMA services rather than struggle with configuring to use the local Wi-Fi network. Dialup connectivity’s biggest bugbear has been the pulse charges and in 2004, almost all cellular phone service providers introduced flat tariffs where you pay extra only if you exceed a bandwidth limit, usually 500 MB or 1 GB.

Ashish Arora, VP, Enterprise Solutions, Sify says, “The proliferation of the mobile work force, cheaper equipment and access devices as well as inherent productivity benefits that wireless networks can offer are some of the key drivers for the adoption of Wi-Fi. There is a significant offtake of wireless in the enterprises with more organisations realising the benefits that wireless connectivity brings to an organisation in terms of productivity and efficiency.”

Wi-Fi was at first ignored by cellular carriers for fear that Wi-Fi data use by customers would take away potential revenue that cellular carriers hoped to get from cellular data services, but Wi-Fi has spread so fast that cellular carriers can no longer ignore the technology.

Instead a few cellular carriers have embraced Wi-Fi, rolling out Wi-Fi hotspot networks, and are offering the technology as a compliment to cellular connectivity. Those cellular carriers that haven’t embraced Wi-Fi are no doubt watching the technology closely.

Most notebooks and, to a lesser extent, smart handheld devices come with built-in Wi-Fi connectivity; it is also possible to add Wi-Fi with a PC card.

"The mobile wireless
market will take some time to grow its base in India. At present there is a demand for fixed broadband access"

- Protip Ghose
VP, Sales and Marketing, APAC Telsima Communication

Protip Ghose, VP, Sales and Marketing, APAC, Telsima Communication elaborates, “In contrast to the growth of mobile technology in India, the country is struggling to get broadband connectivity off the ground with its limited fixed-line infrastructure thus paving the way for WiMAX as a potential saviour. The problem with WiMAX as a solution for India today is it may be too little and too early for the kind of large-scale rapid deployment that is needed. However, the market will definitely move in an upward direction.” WiMax has been piloted but widespread availability isn’t there yet.

Wireless technologies such as 3G, Wi-Fi, and WiMAX will co-exist, working synergistically together to meet unique customer needs. It is likely that no single broadband wireless technology will dominate.

Surendra Arora, Director, South Asia (Customer Solutions Group), Intel informs, “Wi-Fi hotspots have evolved and have become more common in a variety of locations including retail areas, public spaces, office buildings, and stadiums. Mesh networks have evolved to become the architecture of choice for the rapidly increasing number of municipal wireless networks. Intel’s efforts to drive Internet connectivity will also be supporting the governments’ target of increasing the number of Net connections in India from five million in 2006 to 45 million by 2010, by accelerating the use of wireless broadband technologies such as WiMAX across India.”
Wireless connectivity technologies
Wi-Fi The foundation of the wireless LAN, Wi-Fi is usually implemented through the 802.11b or 802.11g protocols.'b' has a bandwidth of 11 Mbps, 'g' five times that. Work is afoot on 'n' which will offer Fast Ethernet equivalent or better speeds. Wi-Fi network coverage is limited to within offices and campuses and scattered hotspotsat this point of time.
WiMAX 802.16 is the protocol family with fixed (802.11d) and nomadic (802.11e) variants. WiMAX operates in the frequency band 3.3-3.4 GHz. WiMax is starting to move out of the pilot stage and into deployment as telecom majors BSNL, MTNL, Bharti Televentures, Reliance, Sify, and VSNL have all acquired licences in the 3.3-3.4 GHz spectrum. WiMAX could revolutionise backhaul.
GPRS General Packet Radio Service is also known as 2.5G. This technology used to be the only option for packet data on GSM networks. It has now been superseded by EDGE but the fact that more handsets support GPRS than EDGE ensures its continued relevance for a year or two longer. GPRS is widely available with every GSM operator offering it as a value-added service.
EDGE An acronym for Enhanced Data GSM Environment it is faster than GPRS delivering data at rates of up to 384 Kbps Handset support is picking up as GSM service providers offer EDGE. It will, however, be side-lined in the next year or two as 3G picks up.
3G 3G refers to third generation wireless technology in mobile communications. Its capabilities include enhanced multimedia, and upwards of 2 Mbps throughput. 3G will be deployed by Indian telcos in 2007.

For people on the move

India offers the lowest telecom tariffs as compared to rest of the world and our main challenge is customer retention. Apart from that we are also involved in broadening the mobile subscriber base in India, so the challenge lies in increasing or retaining our revenue base while offering minimum tariffs. We are looking at convergence onto a single platform for providing various services and end-to-end solutions

Airtel has introduced a ‘data card’ targeting business users, roamers and travellers. This card is compatible with Enhanced Data GSM Environment (EDGE) and GPRS offering speeds up to 200 Kbps. It works on Airtel networks nationally and on GSM networks internationally (while roaming). To begin with, the company has launched the card in a few cities but plans to make it available everywhere across the country.

According to a source from Bharti Airtel, “The new service will enable a comprehensive wireless data connectivity for people on-the-move—nationally and internationally (while roaming). The data card fits into a notebook. Customers can also send and receive SMS from their laptops using the data card.”

The introduction of the high-speed data card adds to Airtel’s suite of m-business solutions for its customers, which now also includes the globally-acclaimed BlackBerry, brought to India exclusively by Airtel.

Says A K Sinha, CMD, BSNL, “We have extended our facilities to nearly 150 hotspots across the country and are planning to add another 150 within a year. Wi-MAX is the next target. Soon we will be able to provide our customers with this connectivity. Right now our broadband services are doing well and providing our users a good connective base in the arena of Internet connectivity.”

MTNL has both GSM and CDMA services. Soon it will be coming out with 3G services. Through its Wifine service, the organisation provides a wide range of services in the Internet access segment. Sify Enterprise Solution is the corporate service arm of Sify Limited, which provides end-to-end corporate network, application and security services. Meanwhile, all eyes are on a likely CDMA-WiMAX battle.

Arora adds, “Alternative mobile broadband technologies like wireless and WiMAX will create opportunities for new entrants and existing service providers to deliver broadband solutions with non-traditional business models.”

At present, service providers are tying up with Indian enterprises to extend various solutions as far as connectivity is concerned. The next killer application is made out to be value-added services through mobile phones. Bharti Airtel, Sify, Hutch, Reliance and other carriers are providing value-added services based around data to corporate and individual customers.

Developed countries are clearly best placed to take advantage of personal broadband services, because of the higher penetration of notebooks and other data-centric devices. However, in the backdrop of growing notebook and smartphone sales in the country, wireless data usage is picking up.

BSNL is in the process of providing triple play service in the coming years and will foray into 3G services providing a wide range of service spectrum to its customers. Although the service provider has a presence in video conferencing it is in the process to start offering IPTV services, which will change the communication scenario.

Sinha adds, “India offers the lowest telecom tariffs as compared to rest of the world and our main challenge is customer retention. Apart from that we are also involved in broadening the mobile subscriber base in India, so the challenge lies in increasing or retaining our revenue base while offering minimum tariffs. We are looking at convergence onto a single platform for providing various services and end-to-end solutions. Thus our thrust will be on attracting customers with excellent services and value-additions.”

At present Sify has about 600 enterprise customers. The company has partnerships with ANC, PCW Global and Global Crossing to extend its services to 300 cities across the globe. In India, Sify has a presence in over 200 cities. All of these factors, from the robust smartphone market to compelling mobile applications, are driving wireless infrastructure needs and vice versa.

Arora informs, “Most IT and ITeS companies are our customers in India. The whole market is managed between two to three players. We are presently using BSNL’s and our infrastructure to provide our services to the customers across the country. As far as WiMAX is concerned it will take some more time to expand its presence in India.”

As pricing is a major concern area for the customers in India, carriers and vendors are working rigorously with the government to provide the facilities at low cost. Ghosh informs, “WiMAX in India is at an early stage. We don’t have sufficient infrastructural facilities to expand our reach in India. We are working with the government to finalise different models.”

A necessity

WiMAX in India is at an early stage. We don’t have sufficient infrastructural facilities to expand our reach in India. We are working with the government to finalise different models

Broadband wireless access has been a niche area. The key factor behind the growth of wireless connectivity is the demand for broadband which is now considered a necessity rather than a luxury.

Ghose opines, “The mobile wireless market will take some time to grow its base in India. At present there is a demand for fixed broadband access. With the growth of mobile workforce the market will definitely move upward. Non-wireless operators are also demanding WiMAX. Telsima is currently working with major service providers along with the government for the deployment of its various WiMAX solutions in India.”

The government is a major target vertical for service providers as well as vendors in India. Most large carriers are looking to roll out fixed or mobile convergence over the next few years, based on the IP triple play of VoIP, data and broadcast.

The buzz is presently centred on 3G. We expect to see more lobbying in the corridors of power for scarce spectrum. The initial buzz is that 3G services would give the always-on connectivity to the mobile owners. That was said so about GPRS and much hoopla was raised in the market. As per the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India, there were just 49,000 broadband subscribers in 2005 and the year ended with 835,000.

But considering India has a population of 1.08 billion, broadband penetration was still below 0.01 per cent. So there is huge potential for service providers and vendors. In terms of pricing and download limits much remains to be thrashed out.

According to a source from MTNL, “We need to think of Wi-Fi networks as core to building out a connected nation. The question is how to put it together to build a bottom-up community network providing low-cost, mass-market connectivity. The world has been holding its breath ever since wireless networks appeared at airports, coffee shops and of course, corporate and education campuses.”

The development of all these technologies on the connectivity front have helped the mobile workforce to work conveniently at any time and anywhere.

With the number of players in the telecom sector increasing, the acquisition cost is reducing. In a country like India where mobile phones are quickly overtaking fixed-line phone connections, it means that you can stay connected just about anywhere that you can make a mobile phone call.
