Because of the susceptibility of U.S. information networks, perhaps the greatest preparations the United States can make is to conduct military exercises without the use of continuous, high-bandwidth communications between units.
Beltway statisticians, and most economist bean-counters, still can't measure the productivity resulting from the microchip and the explosion in communications bandwidth.
Then there's communications bandwidth, once a crawler in comparison.
In the case of owned-and-operated stations, the networks could then sell the frequency freed up back to the FCC, which is hungry for more bandwidth to support wireless communications.
FORBES: Why The Networks' Threat to Stop Broadcasting Is Worth Taking Seriously
Double your wager with digital communications -- Big Bandwidth, recently let loose from its copper cage and regulatory jail, is racing ahead even faster than chips.
Existing telephone bandwidth was perfectly adequate for voice communications, but became suddenly inadequate when the Internet enabled the global abundance of computers, generating data at megabits a second, to come together into a single, gigantic network.
The government is also facing bandwidth gridlock as it attempts to switch wireless traffic communications to the world standard 5.9 GHz.
Those fast lines and digital connections allow cable vendors to offer bandwidth-intensive, interactive services that satellite vendors like Echostar Communications (nasdaq: DISH - news - people ) and DirecTV can't.
Ten years later, unlimited bandwidth has yet to arrive and the market for high-speed communications chips is dominated by MicroUnity rival Broadcom.
His work in this area would outline many of the fundamental principles required for digital communications, especially in regard to required sample rates and bandwidth limitations, and build upon previous ideas, like Time Division Multiplexing and early facsimile machines.
Some promising new investments: Appian Communications, which makes products for service provider networks, and General Bandwidth, which develops equipment for communication services over broadband networks.
We understand from Epitiro (but have not made any enquiries or carried out any research in relation to this) that the App uses very little bandwidth as it reports on data already present on the phone through its normal background communications within the network.
