Show Notes

Late in the day on Tuesday, Feb. 26, Light Reading's Phil "Captain Jetlag" Harvey and Ray Le Maistre attempted to fight through hunger, sleeplessness and coffee jitters to do a live podcast from the InterDigital booth in Hall 7 of the sprawling, soulless Fira Gran Via in Barcelona. Topics covered during the live chat included the new role of edge computing or, if you like, localized cloud computing in manufacturing. Phil thinks that making industrial equipment more mobile and agile is perhaps more exciting than anything 5G-related. Meanwhile, Ray adds that telco business models, as both connectivity providers and technology enablers, are sure to change as telcos begin to properly use AI and react to the trends that their customer data reveals about their businesses. Finally, the two wrap up with some general show observations and Ray continues his decades-long streak of abusing Duran Duran and anyone who likes their music.
