DESCRIPTION:Mobile phones are transforming into trusted personal devices o
 r mobile multimedia computers that have capabilities to interact with the 
 local environment via embedded short range radios\, sensors\, cameras\, an
 d advanced audio functionality. At the same time\, these mobile computers 
 will function both as a server for global/local internet services and as a
  client for global internet services. Thus mobile multimedia computers can
  serve as gateways that connects local measured information and global int
 ernet based services. The mobile multimedia computers create a versatile p
 latform for sensing\, computing and secure communication. Sensors are an i
 mportant enabling technology for user interface and several applications a
 nd services in mobile communication. Implentation and architecture of sens
 ors in the mobile multimedia computers are discussed. The latest technolog
 ies for short range radios\, such as Wibree and RFID technologies\, are re
 viewed. The consumer and enterprise applications and services based sensin
 g and communication are presented. Finally\, Nokia's latest initiatives in
  sensor network research\, Nokia Sensor Planet\, and in nanotechnologies a
 re discussed.
