Eckhart Köppen The NewtonOS Communication Infrastructure - Endpoints, Transports and Routing

"The talk presents an overview of the NewtonOS communication system from the end user perspective, and how the system is implemented on the OS level. It explains the relationships between endpoints, transports and route scripts, using the Blunt Bluetooth driver, the IC/VC package and the Neo transport as examples. The presentation also discusses the low level counterparts on the NewtonOS side, such as communication tools and services"

Eckhart Köppen was elected Newtonian of the Year 2003, probably because of his excellent and huge contributions to the Newton communication possibilities (Bluetooth, IrCOMM, OBEX Support, but also an RSS reader and a new browser, among others).
