(OTCBB OTCBB See OTC Bulletin Board (OTCBB). : BLLD BLLD British Library Lending Division (UK) BLLD Bit-Linear Linear Dispersion ) an innovative provider of wireless cargo security solutions, announced today that it is in the late development stages of a new member of the BOSS(TM) product family. The Mini BOSS(TM) is a battery powered, miniature (3" x 2" x 1"), covert tracking device which can be concealed in valuable cargo Cargo which may be of value during a later stage of the war. and left dormant until required. Bulldog is finalizing details for field trials of the Mini BOSS(TM) in September, 2004. The Mini BOSS(TM), which uses a combination of Assisted GPS GPS is a satellite based positioning system. Assisted GPS, or A-GPS was introduced to enhance performance. The development of A-GPS was accelerated by the U.S. FCC's E911 mandate requiring the position of a cell phone to be available to emergency call dispatchers.

The use of two known coordinates to determine the location of a third. Used by ship captains for centuries to navigate on the high seas, triangulation is employed in GPS receivers to pinpoint their current location on earth. , can provide tracking data from inside shipping containers or cargo trailers, even when they are located in underground parking structures or warehouses.
