Huawei Smart City OS debuts at CEBIT 2018

Published

on

NEW DELHI:At CEBIT 2018, Huawei said that it has showcased Smart City Digital Platform by following the concept of ‘Platform + Ecosystem’.

Based on Huawei ICT infrastructure, Smart City Digital Platform integrates the Internet of Things (IoT), Big Data, video cloud, geographic information system (GIS), and converged communications resources through the industry enabling platform. Huawei also works with partners to build a platform ecosystem.

The rapid development of urbanization exerts huge pressure on urban governance, city management, ecosystem optimization, and industry development. The people’s livelihood, environmental protection, public safety, city services, and industrial and commercial subsystems are scattered.

Huawei Smart City Digital Platform redefines the industry architecture and uses the Internet and IoT technologies to sense, analyze, and integrate core information about city operations, making data more converged.

Huawei has established a unified service layer to manage industry application scenarios. This approach enables intelligent infrastructure, efficient and collaborative government services, visualized city operations, and coordinated city emergency response.

Through resource convergence, traditional siloed management transforms into integrated governance and reactive city management transforms into active response, supporting precise management and intelligent responses.

In China, Smart Cities are developing rapidly, especially county-level Smart Cities, such as Gaoqing. Gaoqing County, Shandong, is a new showcase for Smart City construction. The Gaoqing government, Huawei, and partners have collaborated to fulfill the goals of smarter city administration, citizen benefits, and economic revitalization through Huawei Smart City Digital Platform.

They have supported collaboration between more than 20 agencies, such as public security, urban management, and environmental protection agencies, integrated data from 1,000 cameras and 54 bureaus, and exchanged and shared information about 372 resource directory items and 8,431 information indicators.

The eLTE converged communication system enables visualized multi-agency operations, increases the law enforcement efficiency by 150%, and converges data, video, map, and IoT information. In this way, services and capabilities can be provided for upper-layer smart applications of partners.

Huawei together with its partners and customers is showcasing new digital transformation solutions to orchestrate a digital symphony at CEBIT from June 11-15 in Germany, the home of classical music. It is also hosting activities and sharing best practices around cloud computing, artificial intelligence (AI), big data, IoT and software-defined networking (SDN), all of which play a critical role in today’s digital transformation.

Published

NEW DELHI: Apple Inc has rolled out a beta programme to enable 5G on Apple devices as the upgrade lets users try out pre-release software.

This software upgrade enables 5G access on Apple devices, as and when service providers Jio, Airtel and Vodafone enable 5G network access, sources said.

Apple Users have to enrol for the Beta Programme on the website, install a profile and download the software.

Jio users using iPhone 12 and above, in cities where JioTrue5G has been rolled out, will be invited to the Jio Welcome Offer. Jio Welcome Offer provides unlimited 5G data at up to 1 Gbps speed to users at no additional cost. However, there is a condition that prepaid users must be on active Rs 239 and above plan. All Postpaid users are eligible for this trial.

Airtel is not providing any special 5G offer like Jio to their users. In the cities/areas in which the Airtel 5G network has been launched, users can trial 5G services as a part of their existing plan, once they have updated the latest Apple Beta software.

While an email sent to Apple did not solicit an immediate response, the firm had last month stated: “We are working with our carrier partners in India to bring the best 5G experience to iPhone users as soon as network validation and testing for quality and performance is completed. 5G will be enabled via a software update and will start rolling out to iPhone users in December”.

Airtel and Jio customers on iPhone 14, iPhone 13, iPhone 12 and iPhone SE (3rd generation) models can experience 5G as part of Apple’s iOS 16 Beta Software Program. The Apple Beta Software Program is open to anyone with a valid Apple ID who accepts the Apple Beta Software Program Agreement during the sign-up process.

If a user has an iCloud account, that is an Apple ID, it is recommended they use that. If they do not have an iCloud account or any other Apple ID, they can create one.

Customers who want to try the beta software should back up their iPhones before installing the beta software. It is recommended to install the beta software only on non-production devices that are not business-critical. Users can also provide feedback to Apple on quality and usability, which helps Apple identify issues, fix them, and make Apple software even better.

The iOS beta comes with the built-in Feedback Assistant app, which can be opened from the Home screen on the iPhone or iPad or from the Dock on the Mac.
