IMS was widely implemented throughout the 1970s under MVS and continues to be used under z/OS. networks, today announced that its technology is powering an advanced 3G access and control system for home surveillance. The security solution is developed by CESTEL, a major Spanish system integrator and service provider and deployed by Securitas Direct, a world leader in security systems. The initial deployment targets an installation base of 7,000 households throughout Spain. Home cameras, connected to the security system via ADSL See DSL. ADSL - Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line can be accessed by 3G subscribers, who are called when a manual or automatic alarm triggers the system. The 3G subscriber may also dial-in to the system and obtain direct access to the home surveillance camera whenever desired. The cameras and other electrically controlled devices such as doors, gates and alarms can be activated by the number pad on the 3G mobile phone. Utilizing the camera's built in speaker and microphone, the solution enables 3G subscribers to verbally communicate with the actual location where the camera is set. "3G mobile access to surveillance cameras is a solution that our customers are looking for Looking for In the context of general equities, this describing a buy interest in which a dealer is asked to offer stock, often involving a capital commitment.
