Chris Cantell Discusses Licensing: PS3 partea a doua si razbunarea


by Ana Maria Ciobanu

De cand consola Wii a preluat pozitia de lider in vanzari, cele mai multe jocuri exclusiviste se creeaza pentru Wii.Acelasi lucru se intampla candva si cu Xbox 360Potrivit unui raport eliberat la inceputul acestei luni de catre Gaming Target, Wii detine 113 jocuri exclusiviste.PlayStation 3 al celor de la Sony detinea pana mai ieri numai 47.Probabil ca si-au spus "Lucrurile au mers prea departe!Ceva trebuie facut ca sa putem invinge bestia Nintendo!"Sony a semnat o intelegere cu Rockstar(compania din spatele hitului hiturilor-Grand Theft Auto), miscare care i-a facut pe toti fanii dedicati PS3 foarte fericiti. Toti declara pe blogul PlayStation ca era si timpul ca cineva sa faca o astfel de miscare. Sony spera ca alaturarea lor de Rockstar sa demonstreze lumii unicitatea consolei de joc PS3 deoarece Rockstar va crea un joc exclusiv pentru Sony,promovand astfel importanta Cell si discului Blu-rayFanii PS3 sunt foarte incantati si de-abia asteapta noul joc. Puteti citi 290 de opinii pozitive referitoare la aceasta intelegere pe blogul PlayStation la: http://blog.us.playstation.comToata lumea a iubit seriile GTA. Si eu le-am iubit. Am fost un fan inrait al GTA Vice City dar si al unui joc pe nume Bully tot de la Rockstar insa acum nu-mi pot imagina ce fel de joc vor lansa si daca va fi suficient de bun incat sa readuca PS3 in atentie.Intelegerea incheiata este o miscare foarte inteligenta si poate singura prin care PS3 va atrage atentia din nou. Inca mai au multe de spus, chiar daca unele voci spun ca sunt terminati si ca Nintendo este viitorul..

Lets get down to business
by Claudia Sonea



Being one of the best universities in the world, Harvard has to deal with different issues everyday and the latest one is that of the technology transfer operation. For the up-coming change of president at Harvard University a faculty committee, led by Laurie Glimcher, Harvard cancer biologist, studying the commercialization of research at the university has made a resume on the work over the past year. The main recommendation was to uniform the standards across disciplines in order to make commercialization of technologies more efficient by going beyond the biomedical field. Nowadays, Harvard lays its patents to inventions only in the medical area or to those to which they contributed with a large amount of money. There have been signs of change since 2005, when the former president, Lawrence Summers, hired Isaac Kohlberg, the highest paid university administrator in the USA, according to the headlines. At NYU Kohlberg had great achievements increasing technology licensing deals dramatically, but could he change Harvard situation too? His task is very hard indeed. Although in biotech research Harvard came on the first place, according to a study made in 2006, in technology transfer ranked 18th. Despite some changes like consolidating operations between Harvard Medical School and the so-called Faculty of Arts and Sciences, packing the newly named "Office of Technology Development" with Ph.Ds that can raise innovation potential, Kohlberg has not yet succeeded to make a difference. Licensing revenues are flat and the number of patents granted to Harvard faculty is slightly down since his arrival. My biggest question is when Kohlberg's efforts will have an echo in real life. And also if the new president will have the same policy like the former or he will change. I think that if their main purpose is to improve technology transfers, they should hire people with experience in sales and negotiation and stop using the same model that worked for some, because what is good for them it is not necessary good for them too. They should try to get to the core of the problem and eliminate the evil from the roots. Surf on and find out what will spin next.

Why talking only about internet TV when mobile TV is ready to use. The more demanding market of cell phones determined the manufacturers to develop new applications all the time and improving their products on behalf of the consumers. A Korean semiconductor company called Telechips Inc. has signed a contract with the wireless company QUALCOMM Inc in order to provide to their clients the ultimate generation of mobile services. The chips products will implement FLOtechnology is the air interface capable of multicasting significant volumes of rich multi-media content to millions of mobile handsets from a single frequency network. QUALCOMM Inc. announced on 6 September a broad-based licensing program to develop the sale and manufacture of all FLO patents. The FLO chips should offer better products to cell phone users by combining the live streaming TV and interactive services. The TV-quality picture and sound will be a lot better and will give a unique experience to customers. Wireless operators will have access to the technology to efficiently and cost-effectively complement existing cellular networks. Today is the bean bonus room day. You gat a two sim cards cell phone and an improved mobile television. QUALCOMM also announced to implement patents for use multi mode CDMA handsets.
