Intel Invests in the "Future of Communication"

Today we are announcing that Intel has become the lead investor in our $20 million Series C investment round. The implications can't be overstated. For those of you who have been following the JAJAH blog over this last year, you understand the level of milestone this represents.

Background Of The Intel Investment

This is a strategic investment - meaning that while the investment is important, it's not the only reason we wanted to strike a deal. Along with the capital comes other key advantages.

Capital - The money will allow us to grow the business. We'll invest in everything from marketing to R and D.

Marketing Agreements - Jajah now has access to Intel developers and OEMs, which will help us get JAJAH to more people faster.

Patents - With the agreement, JAJAH now has access to some important Intel patents in the telephony and computing space. These will allow us the freedom to continue to explore, innovate and create great new products.










The JAJAH Vision

JAJAH sees a world where all telephony becomes IP based. As this happens, new classes of services and solutions are going to emerge. In this new world, the consumer is the big winner. Our vision is to be at the forefront of innovation, creating new, richer ways for users to communicate.

"Our vision is to lead the way into the next generation of communication," said Daniel Mattes, JAJAH co-founder and chief architect. "All voice communication will soon be IP-based. The lines between computers and phones are gradually being removed. Phones are quickly turning into computers and computers are quickly turning into phones. We need to marry phones and computers in a fundamental way!"

Naturally. the more JAJAH can be integrated into next generation devices, the better. As stated by our co-founder, Roman Scharf:

"The deeper JAJAH can be embedded into Intel solutions, the better for customers everywhere. It is our intention to bring a best-of-class, next generation solution to the market which can be embedded and optimized for any computing device."

In the end, JAJAH's vision remains the same. It is our goal to remove the barriers to global communication and the Intel agreement will allow us to do that faster and better than ever before.

Digital Divide

The concept of the digital divide is becoming more and more complex as access to computers and the use of computers, changes over time. When the existence of a “digital divide” first emerged, it revolved around access to computers and related technologies. The high cost of computers create a large divide between people who could afford them, and who had access to all the advantages of a computer, and those who could not.The falling cost of computers, combined with initiatives in many countries to create community access points or telecentres [link], has meant that more and more people are gaining access to some form of computer. As more people gain basic access to computers, the term “digital divide” has grown to encompass technological literacy and the total...

Communication Process

Communication can best be summarized as the transmission of a message from a sender to a receiver in an understandable manner. The importance of effective communication is immeasurable in the world of business and in personal life. From a business perspective, effective communication is an absolute must, because it commonly accounts for the difference between success and failure or profit and loss. It has become clear that effective business communication is critical to the successful operation of modern enterprise. Every business person needs to understand the fundamentals of effective communication.
Currently, companies in the United States and abroad are working toward the realization of total quality management. Effective communication is the most critical component of total quality management. The manner in which individuals perceive and talk to each other at work about different issues is a major determinant of the business success. It has proven been proven that poor communication reduces quality, weakens productivity, and eventually leads to anger and a lack of trust among individuals within the organization.
The communication process is the guide toward realizing effective communication. It is through the communication process that the sharing of a common meaning between the sender and the receiver takes place. Individuals that follow the communication process will have the opportunity to become more productive in every aspect of their profession. Effective communication leads to understanding.
The communication process is made up of four key components. Those components include encoding, medium of transmission, decoding, and feedback. There are also two other factors in the process, and those two factors are present in the form of the sender and the receiver. The communication process begins with the sender and ends with the receiver.
The sender is an individual, group, or organization who initiates the communication. This source is initially responsible for the success of the message. The sender's experiences, attitudes, knowledge, skill, perceptions, and culture influence the message. "The written words, spoken words, and nonverbal language selected are paramount in ensuring the receiver interprets the message as intended by the sender" (Burnett & Dollar, 1989). All communication begins with the sender.
The first step the sender is faced with involves the encoding process. In order to convey meaning, the sender must begin encoding, which means translating information into a message in the form of symbols that represent ideas or concepts. This process translates the ideas or concepts into the coded message that will be communicated. The symbols can take on numerous forms such as, languages, words, or gestures. These symbols are used to encode ideas into messages that others can understand.
When encoding a message, the sender has to begin by deciding what he/she wants to transmit. This decision by the sender is based on what he/she believes about the receivers knowledge and assumptions, along with what additional information he/she wants the receiver to have. It is important for the sender to use symbols that are familiar to the intended receiver. A good way for the sender to improve encoding their message, is to mentally visualize the communication from the receiver's point of view.
To begin transmitting the message, the sender uses some kind of channel (also called a medium). The channel is the means used to convey the message. Most channels are either oral or written, but currently visual channels are becoming more common as technology expands. Common channels include the telephone and a variety of written forms such as memos, letters, and reports. The effectiveness of the various channels fluctuates depending on the characteristics of the communication. For example, when immediate feedback is necessary, oral communication channels are more effective because any uncertainties can be cleared up on the spot. In a situation where the message must be delivered to more than a small group of people, written channels are often more effective. Although in many cases, both oral and written channels should be used because one supplements the other.
If a sender relays a message through an inappropriate channel, its message may not reach the right receivers. That is why senders need to keep in mind that selecting the appropriate channel will greatly assist in the effectiveness of the receiver's understanding. The sender's decision to utilize either an oral or a written channel for communicating a message is influenced by several factors. The sender should ask him or herself different questions, so that they can select the appropriate channel. Is the message urgent? Is immediate feedback needed? Is documentation or a permanent record required? Is the content complicated, controversial, or private? Is the message going to someone inside or outside the organization? What oral and written communication skills does the receiver possess? Once the sender has answered all of these questions, they will be able to choose an effective channel.
After the appropriate channel or channels are selected, the message enters the decoding stage of the communication process. Decoding is conducted by the receiver. Once the message is received and examined, the stimulus is sent to the brain for interpreting, in order to assign some type of meaning to it. It is this processing stage that constitutes decoding. The receiver begins to interpret the symbols sent by the sender, translating the message to their own set of experiences in order to make the symbols meaningful. Successful communication takes place when the receiver correctly interprets the sender's message.
The receiver is the individual or individuals to whom the message is directed. The extent to which this person comprehends the message will depend on a number of factors, which include the following: how much the individual or individuals know about the topic, their receptivity to the message, and the relationship and trust that exists between sender and receiver. All interpretations by the receiver are influenced by their experiences, attitudes, knowledge, skills, perceptions, and culture. It is similar to the sender's relationship with encoding.
Feedback is the final link in the chain of the communication process. After receiving a message, the receiver responds in some way and signals that response to the sender. The signal may take the form of a spoken comment, a long sigh, a written message, a smile, or some other action. "Even a lack of response, is in a sense, a form of response" (Bovee & Thill, 1992). Without feedback, the sender cannot confirm that the receiver has interpreted the message correctly.
Feedback is a key component in the communication process because it allows the sender to evaluate the effectiveness of the message. Feedback ultimately provides an opportunity for the sender to take corrective action to clarify a misunderstood message. "Feedback plays an important role by indicating significant communication barriers: differences in background, different interpretations of words, and differing emotional reactions" (Bovee & Thill, 1992).
The communication process is the perfect guide toward achieving effective communication. When followed properly, the process can usually assure that the sender's message will be understood by the receiver. Although the communication process seems simple, it in essence is not. Certain barriers present themselves throughout the process. Those barriers are factors that have a negative impact on the communication process. Some common barriers include the use of an inappropriate medium (channel), incorrect grammar, inflammatory words, words that conflict with body language, and technical jargon. Noise is also another common barrier. Noise can occur during any stage of the process. Noise essentially is anything that distorts a message by interfering with the communication process. Noise can take many forms, including a radio playing in the background, another person trying to enter your conversation, and any other distractions that prevent the receiver from paying attention.
Successful and effective communication within an organization stems from the implementation of the communication process. All members within an organization will improve their communication skills if they follow the communication process, and stay away from the different barriers. It has been proven that individuals that understand the communication process will blossom into more effective communicators, and effective communicators have a greater opportunity for becoming a success.

A network that is plagued with security problems has a lot to say about the people who manage it – they are not serious about business. Today, security is paramount for a successful and continual presence on the Internet. Each day more and more vulnerabilities are being exposed for popular operating systems and applications alike. Viruses and worms continue to proliferate networks at an alarming rate – causing congestion, choke points and failed systems. Hacking is not a myth. It happens on a 24/7 basis – relentlessly. No one is safe.
With more businesses turning to the Internet as their de facto means of connectivity to their business partners and customers, any form of disruption in service literally ends up costing you both in time and money.
Network providers (as a generalized rule) do not invest heavily in infrastructure security. It’s a premium service. You have to pay for it. Partly to blame for this lax attitude is the resistance faced from their customers to pay a premium for a protected and monitored network. Recent studies show that a vast majority of IT Managers have adopted the “NIMBY” syndrome as far as hacking &/or network threats are concerned. “Not in my backyard!” is the answer when questioned if they have thought about defensive planning towards hacking attempts or security breaches.
For businesses, network security begins with the commitment of your service provider.
At Net Access, we are committed to providing our clients a safe-haven to conduct their business. Since inception, our network and services have been focused on security and business continuity. We invest and protect our network and those of our clients against the known and unknown both.

How we do that?

We usually provide the seed funding ourselves to bring the concept to reality. When the value proposition is more visible, we find venture capitalists and angel investors. We have deep rooted existing contacts with these people and we are continuously improving them for future.For the scientists and technologists, we look into the details of what skills they have in which domains. Based on whatever little experience we have, we suggest them the best way they can convert their skills into something that is needed by others and can earn them a good return on intellect. We reject most such proposals as we see them over ambitious for our given environment. We beef up some proposals as we see them too trivial to justify our involvement. We change direction of some proposals as we see that they are more geared towards theoretical excellence rather than commercial business.We are in a continuous process of maturing our development processes and making them as much efficient as possible. This process maturity is shared with all Advanced Communications start ups.For the business development, marketing and sales people, we provide to them an excellent product that would sell and allow them to maximize their return on intellect. We have an existing chain of distributors, value added resellers and channel partners. We are continuously improving upon our business development, marketing and sales strategies. This process maturity and chain of channel partners is available to all Advanced Communications start ups. Finally for investors, we provide them the engine that will drive their RoIe.

When the existence of a “digital divide” first emerged, it revolved around access to computers and related technologies. The high cost of computers create a large divide between people who could afford them, and who had access to all the advantages of a computer, and those who could not.The falling cost of computers, combined with initiatives in many countries to create community access points or telecentres [link], has meant that more and more people are gaining access to some form of computer.

Internet

The Internet has become a very important business tool! For example, a new marketing tool that is a huge benefit to local businesses is now available: the “local” link on search engines. To demonstrate the power of this tool, please go to a search engine such as Google or Yahoo and enter “Flower Shops”. Then, click on the “local” link at the top of the page and enter your zip code. Presto: local flower shops will be displayed on a map along with links to their Web sites. Savvy businesses today are taking advantage of this marketing tool. It can be used at a basic level for e-mail and for research and it can be used at a more comprehensive level as a channel for selling your products and services.
To get access to the Internet, you need a browser. This is a piece of free software. Microsoft Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator are the two leading browsers.
Now that you have a browser, you need to get access to the Internet. This is done through an Internet Service Provider (ISP). These providers range in the features that they provide, but all give you the capability of e-mail. If you want a very comprehensive set of features, then America Online or MSN might be for you. If you are comfortable with accessing the Internet and working within an environment that assumes a little more knowledge on your part, an ISP such as SBC, AT&T or Earthlink might meet your needs. As with other forms of communication, there are many plans and prices from which to choose.
How you use the Internet in your business is up to you. Perhaps you are not ready to sell your products on the Internet, but you are interested in developing a Web site, or home page, that lets people know what you do. At the other extreme, you may want to use the Internet as your main sales channel. Just remember, the basics are still on the ground - you need products and services that people need; you need to attract people to your Internet site so that they have the option of purchasing these products and services from you; you need to convince them to buy; you need a place to store your products; and you need a way to get them to the purchaser.
Session 10 of this course will furnish you with detailed information about the Internet and E-commerce.
