Narrowband Sockets
| Narrowband Sockets (NBS) is an industry
specification initially developed by Intel Corporation and Nokia. Using the
functions defined in this specification, software developers will be able
to create wireless messaging applications for mobile PC and advanced digital
cellular phone users using familiar Internet programming interfaces. The
NBS specification extends the reach of the Internet to create "always-connected"
mobile clients. Narrowband Sockets defines an efficient transport service
over wireless messaging networks. NBS is also network independent, so
applications can use NBS to send and receive data via short messages over
any network. The NBS specification provides a Windows* WinSock 2 programming
interface which is well known to developers.
NBS Mailing List Intel has established an email reflector (mailing list) for the purpose of creating an open forum for discussion and announcements pertaining to Narrowband Sockets. Mail messages sent to the email reflector are re-broadcast to all of the maillist subscribers. You can subscribe to the NBS mailing list by sending mail to listserv@mailbag.intel.com with the message body "SUBSCRIBE NBS". You can submit mail to this list by sending to: nbs@mailbag.intel.com General questions can be sent to the list owner: nbs-listowner@mailbag.intel.com Related Projects WinSock 2 is fully compatible with the immensely popular WinSock 1.1 interface while expanding to support virtually all transport protocols (including IPX/SPX, OSI, native ATM, and now NBS) and offering quality of service capabilities for multimedia communications.
