Recently, Windows launched its latest operating system Windows 8 which includes many new features. Now it has announced that it will build a new operating system for Windows. The Windows Blue will be the next version of Windows with lots of new updates and features. It will be released in mid 2013. Windows has promised to launch a new update of its operating system every year so users can get the benefits of new features and also updates. Currently, Apple’s OS X is providing these types of updates and now Windows will do that.

What's the latest update says

Verge, the latest technology and gadget information provider, have released information about Windows Blue and declared Microsoft’s next plan about its operating system. The Windows Blue may be an update of Windows and it will cost very little or it may be free. The complete details about the changes in Windows has not been announced but it’s sure that Microsoft will make changes in the User Interface of Windows 8.

Effects on Windows application development

Microsoft has not just released Windows 8 for computer operating system but it will be launching Windows Phone 8 with its latest operating system. It seems the new OS will take place in the mobile market like Android and iOS.
There are many mobile application developers connected with Android and iPhone, so now they will diversify by creating an application for Windows Phone 8. The major problem is about Windows updates. Developers have to concentrate on Windows features and build an effective application that can be supported in all versions of Windows operating system. It will be great for Windows application developers since they just need to create one application of computer and mobile Windows application.

Advantages and effects

We can say that Microsoft launched Windows, the major OS, and now it will just provide yearly versions for its users. There are many software companies providing these types of updates and they are not charging anything. So Windows users will surely get benefit of low cost or free version for  Windows.

The yearly updates of Microsoft will increase new features in an operating system with all existing features in the old version. This will make users to work on older features and also with some advance options. If Windows will go for just updating online then it will be hugely successful because many computer users are not using paid version of Windows 7 or Windows XP because they can use the same key for many computers. Microsoft can here go through strike option and just allow upgrading online. However, operating system covers boot too so it may be not possible to make the perfect software configuration.

Every day is the birthday of a new technology which comes with amazing rapidity! And a wireless technology mobile system includes many generations of technologies.

Generations of technology:

0G Technology: The first generation of technology is a mobile radio telephone called 0 (Zero) Generation. This telephone system includes transceiver, dial, display and handset. It is also called Radio Common Carrier (RCC). The Motorola with Bell system is a great example of this device.

1G Technology: In 1980, the analog telecommunication system was included in telephone technology which was introduced as 1G technology. This technology has just an analog system with bandwidth up to 30kHz. The first 1G cellular system was launched in Japan by NTT organization.

2G Technology: The digital communication system came  into the market with 2G technology which makes spectral bandwidth possible up to 200kHz and SMS services among cellular phone users. GSM and CDMA are two systems of 2G technology. They are different types of multiplexing systems. The text messaging service is the best part of 2G technology.

2.5G Technology: This technology includes a GPRS system with a packet data internet service. The MMS and mobile internet with WAP (Wireless Application Protocol) are the new features of 2.5G technology.

2.75G Technology: The GPRS system with EDGE (Enhanced Data rates for GSM Evolution) feature was possible because of 2.75 Technology that starts the advance technology in GSM internet system.

3G Technology: High speed internet on mobile, video calls and mobile TV are new features of 3G technology. 3GPP is a group of CDMA2000 and UMTS which broadcast internet speed up to 2 MBPS with high data rate. 3.5G and 3.75G technologies are something like 3G technology and includes features similar to a 3G system.

4G Technology: It’s the latest technology system used in the current mobile phone market. The mobile ultra-broadband internet access, video conference, 3D television and LTE (Long Term Evolution) are new features of 4G technology. 4G-LTE is a completely new technology that makes possible data transfer capacity up to 100MBPS and spectral bandwidth up to 40 MHz.

Basics about 5G Technology:

5G technology has not been officially launched but it will definitely come with all major features of 4G mobile technology and IMT-Advanced system . It will completely change the global mobile system with new technology and lots of amazing features. 5G technology may include new concepts of multiple paths for the concurrent data transfer. However, the perfect data transfer rate is not confirmed for 5G technology.

What’s new in 5G Technology:

In 4G technology, users can get the benefit of high data transfer speed but they have to use a specific multiple access system like SDMA while 5G technology provides Multi-user MIMO ( Multiple-input and multiple-output). Currently, wireless system has a particular range of area for some network connections, while 5G technology will remove the limitation of network access range.

Many web applications will work on wireless based systems. These multimedia applications will include more speed than 4G internet speeds  though with WWWW (World wide wireless web) feature. HAPS (High-altitude stratospheric platform station) system and IPv6 mobile IP address will be included in internet network connections.

5G technology - features and advantages:

  • 5G technology will include spectral bandwidth more than 40 MHz on frequency channel which is a larger range than all other wireless technology systems.
  • The artificial intelligence will be included in 5G technology through advance wearable computer  technology.
  • Massive Distributed with Multiple-input and multiple-output will be provided by 5G which will help cut costs and make it energy-effective.
  • 5G technology may consume low battery power, provide a wide range of coverage, cheap rate of network services and many other advantages.
  • 4G technology provides up to 1 GBPS internet speed and so it may be possible that 5G technology will provide more than 1 GBPS speed.

Effects of 5G technology in current internet market:

Mobile devices will come as a 5G supported device. 5G makes it possible to access high speed internet on a laptop or computer with mobile internet connection. The browsing on laptops and computers will get affected by 5G mobile technology because every person will want to use internet on a mobile. Software and website development will greatly benefit through high speed internet connection. Above all, internet businesses for internet marketing, web design, website development and social media sites will need to effect many changes in their strategies.

Web 2.0 is a familiar term with every professional who remain connected to the  internet, however, have you ever thought about Web 3.0. Yes, its Web 3.0 which is an advanced system over Web 2.0. It’s difficult to explain the definition of Web 3.0 but before that , lets know the history of Web 1.0 and Web 2.0.

Web 1.0: Company Generated Content – Read only (1993)

Web 1.0 website service provides just information which is posted by media of authentic  user. Users can read posts but they can’t modify or write new contents in the website. This means no more variety in content post because of an individual user or company. At  times the organization also provides some content just for promotion. These are disadvantages of Web 1.0 but this system includes just for professional writers who provide quality contents. Examples of Websites are Geocities, Hotmail era and many other static HTML based websites.

Web 2.0: User Generated Content – Read & Write (2004)

Currently , the internet users use this generation of websites to share their  content without any cost and also build a free website with different features. Here, you can read other contents and also Write own unlimited content. These are free websites hence users work free of cost and they would never buy the paid service. As per the universal information only 1% users use the Pro version of Web 2.0 websites. This means they can’t get advance features of the website and just work with limited website or blog features. Example of Web 2.0 websites are Flicker, YouTube, Blogger and many other social media sites.

Web 3.0: User Generated Business (Technology & Creativity) – Read, Write & Manage (Latest)

Web 3.0 is not controlled by a person or company but it’s a global system for all internet users. Here, users create their own platform and manage it. We have seen that Web 1.0 has been a just delivered content, Web 2.0 for creation and delivered while Web 3.0 can work for creation, delivery and Management. Web 3.0 can save on your time with its advanced system knowledge and features. E-commerce website, Advanced mail system and marketing tools can be handled easily in Web 3.0.

Let’s go through a few examples which talks about advanced information. Whenever you begin the computer, you won’t  have any information on what you will see on the internet? A blog post , mail or any other news, is Web 1.0 where the posts are done by other’s. Searching information, getting technical knowledge, sharing content on the website and connecting with friends, this is Web 2.0.

If you have handled Social networking site since 1990, you would have observed it included a variety of information about users and you had to manage a lot of information. If you needed to find any particular information about the user who has posted some content in 1994 then it was a task . We had to find the name of that person and posted content by him. This was not enough because there was a possibility that several others would have shared the same content. Hence, it was necessary to get more information as city, qualification and friends of that user. This is a management fundamental  which manages several data and locate a particular data when required. Mostly, semantic web sites are included in Web 3.0.

Structure of Web 3.0:

  • RDF - Resource Description Framework: This is online grammar or scheme framework where one can understand a particular word and also help  to manage that word or syntax.
  • URI - Uniform resource identifier: This is a resource identifier for name and location.
  • SPARQL - SPARQL Protocol and RDF Query Language: As a normal protocol this includes rules for query language and helps to manage information with different criteria.
  • XDI - XRI Data Interchange: This system works for sharing, linking and synchronizing data.
  • XRI - Extensible Resource Identifier: Any type connection needs some source. This is for locating  any resources and identifying the network.
  • SWRL - Semantic Web Rule Language: The rules are created and those rules are followed by this semantic language.
  • API - Application Program Interface: The main key of all processes is an API which includes authentications and make connections secure.

Evolution of Web 3.0:

  • The Semantic Web: The complete web information can be managed category wise and also makes it easy for the user to understand the concept. The searching data and Query language can be included in Semantic web.
  • Mobility: These days, Web 2.0 Website can work on the computer and they don’t provide the facility to work on mobile. Here, you can use Web 3.0 Websites on mobile devices and also handle website with remote network.
  • Artificial Intelligence: Intelligent  ideas make it  possible to handle any situation easily which may be in the form of a business or social life. Here, the concept of Artificial Intelligence is used where the user can search effective websites  to use and search with his own mind. Whenever you have many choices for one task then at that point of  time you must choose from the effective  choices and this requires intelligence.
  • Personalization and Presentation: The advanced features of Web 3.0 can help to describe yourself amongst the web users and develop a reputed profile with some advanced social media site (Web 3.0) and Web 3.0 business websites.

The technology is always expanding  and includes new ideas which creates a future. Web development and web designing business will definitely get affected  by the features offered by Web 3.0 but we will have to wait and see what will happen. This is the beginning of Web 3.0 but as we are aware Technology never dies , so lets look forward for Web 4.0?
