ARM technology and Partners are everywhere at Mobile World Congress. While big announcement like Microsoft and Nokia partnering on Windows Phone 7 to ARM’s announcement on the broad ARM-based LTE support rolling out this year seem to be grabbing most of the headlines, we thought you’d like to see some of our favorite ARM enabled technologies on display at Mobile World Congress 2011 – and yes we did manage to cover both Microsoft and LTE.

Microsoft and Nokia join forces with Windows Phone 7 – what does this mean for ARM Partners?
Windows Phone 7 is a key operating system in mobile and guess what at Mobile World Congress 2011 it is only available on ARM based chipsets. Katie Morgan caught up with ARM Partner Microsoft to discuss Nokia Windows Phone 7 announcement and plans for new feature support on such as CDMA, IE9, HTML5, a...

CES this year is awash with innovative technology to power our connected lives. For years, technologists have talked about a future where our digital life is seamlessly integrated at home, at work, and on the go. In this future world, devices would work together to connect us to each other and to our content and high-performance processors (equivalent to super computers of the past) would power these new visionary devices. Well all I can say is this year at CES the future is now.

Are you part of the tablet craze yet? No - then you must meet the Motorola Xoom tablet!
I’m a tablet convert. If I wasn’t, CES 2011 would definitely convert me. For the first time I can explore the show and stay up to date with no laptop required staying connected with only a couple of 3G ...

Welcome to second day of ARM Technology Conference (ARM Techcon) 2010. Today I’ve seen queues everywhere of people waiting to get into keynotes, technical sessions from industry leaders, theatre performances and of course the lunch queue, which just goes to show how successful this years’ event is turning out to be.

In today’s roundup video you’ll get to see snippets of the keynotes from Tudor Brown President, ARM and Ron Jocoby, Chief Architect of the Connected TV group, Yahoo! We’ve also got interviews with Mike Dimelow and Ian Smythe about the CoreLink 4 and Mali-T604 GPU product launch announcements that were made today along with a variety of clips from the show floor – but the best part for me was when I finally got to drink my cup of Cortex-M3 produced...

How did I become the “Grandfather of Techcon?” The other day a colleague referred to me this way Grandfather of Techcon. Begrudgingly, I chalked it up to yet another indication of how I have aged in the past few years; black hair migrating to salt-and- pepper and recently to an even grey.

Upon further recollection, I begin to agree with the new moniker. I reflected on the first time I broached the subject with ...

This week is turning out to be a truly “memorable” week.. Smart mobile devices that capture my memories and the thought leadership at Flash Memory Summit collided to bring me some interesting insight. It started off for me with a bout of wedding planning as my niece is getting married this Saturday. Indian weddings are designed to be memorable, not only because they are colorful, chaotic and noisy, but because they tend to last for days. So you might imagine the planning for these weddings is also colorful, chaotic and noisy and this week we have tried to create new memories by trying to relive old ones and what I mean by this is collecting pictures of the bride and groom from birth to current day for us to remember what has brought them to this memorable event, their wedding.

The process of planning the wedding, got me thinking about how much memory, these memories are going to take to capture.. pun intended.. and in general how much flash memory was going to be in attendance at this wedding through people with their smartphones, digital cameras and video cameras. I figured that of the 400 guests at least 200 iphones (average 8GB = 20...

8GE2FF22NUER 坐了12个小时的飞机，从剑桥赶到深圳的我站在集成电路应用展（China IC EXPO）的展板前，试图找到ARM中国区总经理兼销售副总裁吴雄昂在高峰论坛上演讲的时间。一个观众来到我身旁，问我论坛演讲的议程安排。我指了指正在看的展板。他眯着眼睛看了半天，嘀咕了一句，怎么全是ARM阵营的。没错。要不是提前查过这个展会，我可能会以为这是ARM和合作伙伴联办的一个专题讨论会。10个演讲，有7个是ARM的客户或者合作伙伴。比如福州瑞芯微电子有限公司的市场总监陈峰先生，就在他的演讲中，把ARM和Android的结合应用以形象生动的方式让听众了解到ARM架构在开源操作系统上的优势。...

I have often heard that teenagers are the best predictor of what new technology is going to take hold in the near future. ..This week I got to feel like a teenager again as I walked around MWC experiencing everything from a real time video conference with a juggler to seeing a lot of excitement buzzing around the ability to click on a widget and watch my favorite video. Not to get all “we are the world “or anything but I definitely did get a sense that everyone from every corner of the world was assembling at Barcelona this week…Probably more so than in Vancouver. Clearly nowadays everyone wants to stay connected and MWC is definitely the place to find cool ways to do so...

MWC being a mobile show actually is the forum where everyone is battling to get content to the SCREEN… whether your mobile phone or your TV at home. Excitingly ARM’s technology is known for bringing energy efficient processing and the best user experience to consumers, so our technology is key to winning this battle. In that vein, I had a great conversation with a start up, that shall remain nameless, that is using ARM technology to deliver entertainment content to the home. Their choice of the ARM architecture clearly gives them a lot of choices. Whether they want to leverage other people’s hardware or develop their own...the ...

WOW…What a great show CES was for ARM and its Partners! It’s no wonder the energy and excitement you find on the show floor translates into an abundance of press coverage and news articles. Below are some of the articles I found most interesting:

CES: The Magic is Back
Rob Enderle, TechNewsWorld
After two relatively ho-hum years, CES is crackling again. This year was not overshadowed by any particular device -- there were plenty of exhibitors making star turns. There were lots of tablets and Androids, 3-D TVs and 3-D games. There were also a slew of e-books on display, and a particularly interesting technology that could revolutionize that market.

ARM is often talked about in mobile phone circles, but today I got to see another emerging area that ARM is turning out to be the solution of choice, Femto cells.
Here at CES, I spent some time at the Femtozone, the Femto forum’s booth. Femto cells are an exciting new emerging area where service providers are deploying a box that creates your very own cellular network in your home that gets connected to the rest of the cell network using existing broadband services in the home.
One could ask why would I want to do that? Well the answer is that, sometimes in suburban areas there is spotty coverage, so if you have a femtocell in your home, you and your family, could use your cell phone services more effectively and have a seamless user experience as you walk into your home.
There are some companies such as Alcatel-Lucent in collaboration with Sagem, who have deployed these boxes. One of ARM’s partners picoChip is helping these customers with their ARM based base station in a box solution.
As I talked to Rupert Baines, their VP of marketing, it was quite exciting to hear how the ARM processor is us...
