Business Without Boundaries

The University's New York State-designated Center of Excellence in Wireless and Information Technology will present an all-day wireless event on November 13 at the Crest Hollow, Woodbury, LI, NY. "Business Without Boundaries" will feature keynotes by Charles Nelson, CEO, Cingular Interactive and NYS Governor George Pataki, three content tracks -- applied technology, sector-specific applications, and advanced research -- and exhibits of just-released new products and demos. The Center's mission is to help position New York State as the global leader in the wireless revolution of "anyone, anywhere, any time, any device" mobile computing. The Center is being designed as not only a home for leading edge research, but also a testbed and demonstration site for transitional and emerging wireless technologies, with a comprehensive array of 'future state' laboratory facilities to address problems at the networking, device and application levels including ad hoc mobile networks, bandwidth utilization and mobile systems, cyber-security, digital vision, multi-cell networking, and visualization' among the Federally-supported research strengths that won Stony Brook the State designation. The Center's industrial partners, including Computer Associates, IBM and Symbol Technologies, have already pledged more than $160 million in R&D to match the $50 million committed by the State.
