  1. Device Connectivity: Vision And Evolution Scott ManchesterProgram Director Windows Device Experience GroupMicrosoft Corporation Fred BhesaniaLead Program Manager

  2. Devices Direction Enhanced Devices Smarter Devices Simple Devices Third Wave Second Wave First Wave Devices operates independently but use PC for scenarios Devices have multiple transports and hence multiple personalities Device operated primarily by PC Wired connectivity prevalent (RS232, USB, 1394, parallel port, etc) IP connectivity Mobile device maintain ubiquitous connectivity Experience on Windows is consistent across transports Device Evolution

  3. Wireless Scenarios Connectivity for Mobile User Digital Content Proliferation Multi-transport and Multi-function Devices Device Evolutionary Trends Connectivity and Mobility

  4. Convergence Model Unification of IP and directly connected devices Users shouldn’t have to care about the bus IP Network Directly Connected

  5. Challenges For IP Connected Devices Effortless Device setup is unintuitive today Multiple points of failure on networks are hard to diagnose Secure Configuring devices for secure networks is difficult Security for devices is paramount Reliable Connectivity across wired and wireless transports QOS for bandwidth constrained networks Seamless access to data where ever you are

  6. Windows Rally™ Program Access to Technologies Simple Licensing Technical Guidance http://www.microsoft.com/RALLY

  7. Consolidated association and diagnostics to enhance security Secure and EasySetup Cost and pain of developing, deploying and maintaining devices Reduce Dev/SupportCosts Innovations in WSD and Windows Rally to create rich applets Faster to Market Windows Rally™ ProgramValue Proposition Effortless Secure Reliable

  14. Trends In Direct Connected Devices

  15. Challenges For Direct Connected Devices Effortlessness Device setup and association is unintuitive today Multi-transport devices don’t provide equivalent behavior across buses Security Association is unintuitive. Forced to use null pins Device control in IT environment is complex Reliability Simple driver install and software maintenance Drivers are hard to develop and maintain Ability to safely store / recover data decades later

  16. UltraWideBand • UltraWideBand continues to engage interest in industry around Personal Area Networking (PAN) • UWB Solutions around • Certified Wireless USB • IP over UWB (WiNET) • Bluetooth over UWB? • Lessons from wireless around… • Simple association • Top-notch security • Ease of use Start testing Microsoft’s preproduction software for Wireless USB

  17. Bluetooth Innovations • Windows Vista innovations • Silicon agnostic Bluetooth Headset and Handsfree profile • Improved extensibility – Stereo audio profiles and other profiles supported by partners • Expanded device coverage • Post Windows Vista • Improved Usability including support for Simple pairing and Quality of service • Inclusion of high volume profiles Inbox • “Advances in Windows Vista and Beyond”Wednesday (5/24) @ 8:30am

  18. Wired Connectivity USB • Windows Vista significantly improves USB Stack • Power management / resume time • Reliability • Innovations around WinUSB, KMDF, UMDF • Developer Docs greatly improved in WDK 1394 • Critical bug fixes already integrated into Windows Vista • 1394b bandwidth continues to grow • 800 Megabits speeds are in market today • 1.6 Gigabits silicon available this year

  19. Areas To Continue Focus Association Consistency across transports Learning's from Windows Connect Now in WFA NFC and its value around association Collaboration and Mobility Optimize for power. Boost battery life Access data from anywhereEnhancements in Web Services enabling such scenarios Diagnosability and Reliability Partners to investigate porting to KMDF and UMDF Latest tools for driver reliability available in WDK

  20. Summary • Solid foundation in connectivity is essential to device ecosystem growth. Windows Vista provides that foundation • Windows Rally enables the IP connected devices ecosystems; Visit Windows Rally website today • Attend WinHEC Connected Devices Sessions to learn latest details
