Detailed information
====================
Made by Zeno Sloim.
Based on Alfredo Morresi Webcam Holmes 1.0 released as freeware in 2007.
I already done a similar program called Zeno Webcams Romania 2009-12-20.
I decided to make a new updated version, where I separated Canada Ski webcams from Romania webcams.
Why?
I was born in Romania, many of my old comrades (computer engineers - both hardware and software developers) from Technical University of Iasi, emigrated to Canada finding a new life. I choosed to emigrate to Sweden.
Many times I wish I had choosen Canada instead, hence my sentimental affection to Canada: wonderful wild nature, Shania Twain music, among others.
That is why I decided to update and enrich the program called Zeno Sloim Canada Ski Webcams 2011 v2.0 build 2011-02-04.
It contains over 100 network cameras from Canada's most wonderful ski resorts with fantastic beautifully nature and mountains.
The idea is to offer in a mobile form, a direct visual experience of wonderful places like:
Banff Sunshine Village, Big White, Canmore, Fernie, Kicking Horse, Lake Louise, Mount Sutton, Mount Washington, Nakiska, Norquay, Red Mountain, Silver Star, Sun Peaks, Whistler Blackcomb - Blackcomb Mountain,
Whistler Blackcomb - Horstman Glacier, Whistler Blackcomb - Whistler Mountain, Whistler Blackcomb - Whistler Peak.
I want to express my gratitude to those canadian sites who host the included cameras.
I decided to make 2 versions, one in which all cameras have a refresh rate of 1 second and an other with refresh rate of 60 seconds, depending on the data-plan you have with your mobile provider, to minimise costs and reduce to minimum the data traffic. Of course you can adjust the refresh rate individually for each camera after your own needs.
And here I want to mention that all canadian webcams owners (sites) have adopted a fair policy by making easy to see and update, either on a pc with fast internet or on a mobile device/phone with data-plan. No annoying pop-ups, aggresive advertisements or malware to make you pay a lot for the data-traffic.
Complete different situation when it comes to Romania.
Most webcams are hosted on sites with enormous quantity of pop-ups, aggresive advertisements, malware embedded in webpages, lots of prompts to install obscure ActiveX Controlls to be able to view a camera.
It seems that most romanian sites have teamed in a shame league with mobile operators to maximize completely the data-traffic, to make unfair profits on those wishing to see webcams hosted in Romania, as well as promoting aggressive dubious advertisements and malware. In a word, it's a pain for a normal user to watch romanian webcams.
Lots of pop-ups, advertisements, seem these sites have teamed up with romanian mobile operators to maximize their profit and rising your data-traffic to peaks - shame on them.
I was asked why not developing for Apple and Iphone? I gave a clear answer: I do not agree with the gready aggressive commercialism of Apple, I do not agree with their restrictive politics for developers, which is not because of their
effort for securing the consumer, but for maximising Apple's profit. I will never develop for Apple.
I remain devoted to Microsoft Windows Mobile 6 - 6.1 platform, which is the last one offering maximal security and privacy for the user/consumer. Neither Windows Phone 7, neither Android or IOS (Apple) offer enough resources for
privacy, own security and freedom of choice to choose what to install without being "controlled" by Big-Brother.
No other concurrent platform to WM6-WM6.1 has such a widespread offer of real serious software and not junk as is on the so-called Android market or Apple Apps.
For those still aware of their personal integrity I recommend: stay to WM6/WM6.1.
Avoid Windows Phone 7, avoid Android and avoid any Apple product.

I will never develop for Apple.
Why not for Android? Android is far insecure compared to Windows Mobile, there are not enough advanced security programs which can identify malware components in apk-s, much more difficult to analyse compared to file system in Windows Mobile.
Even today, after more years of Android, when it comes to advanced serious software, Windows Mobile is still on top. While in Windows Mobile is so easy and fast to check a new program for hidden malware and backdoors, that is not the case with Android, far more complicated and time consuming.
In Windows Mobile is very easy and very little resurse-consuming to assure maximal security and privacy for own data, no matter what software you use. In Android is much more difficult to achieve same level of security and own privacy.
Android is still full of backdoors and holes where various authorities can access your private data, that is not the case with Windows Mobile.
Why such a mess with Android, because no part is interested and on contrary, a lot of governments are taking the road of total control and surveying like in Orwell 1984 and Android is an ideal platform for such things.
I remain devoted to Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.1 platform, which is the last one offering maximal security and privacy for the user/consumer.

Succeeding in China – How can Overseas Developers Capitalise on the World’s Largest A

Succeeding in China – How can Overseas Developers Capitalise on the World’s Largest App Market
It’s a question many in the mobile application sector ask regularly – how do you get an app to take off in the lucrative and ever-growing Chinese app market? The statistics about the smartphone industry and mobile usage in the world’s largest country are emphatic – 1.3 billion mobile internet users, almost 100 billion app downloads in 2019, half of the global consumer spending on mobile apps, and a mobile gaming industry that accounted for US$15B in the first six months of 2020.
These numbers are huge and smartphone penetration in China is forecast to continue its steady growth into the foreseeable future, yet developers from around the world often miss the mark when trying to cash in on the world’s largest app market.
The failure of most apps to truly penetrate this market can paint a rather discouraging and frustrating picture for overseas developers. Navigating the unfamiliar and at times complicated legal and regulatory requirements is perhaps the most poignant of the challenges they face. The litany of entry requirements such as privacy regulations, content compliance rules, consumer protection laws, and qualification requirements creates a compliance-induced headache at best, and at worst can act as an impassable roadblock to launching an app in China at all.
Another hurdle is creating an app that actually resonates with Chinese users. What might be an essential digital product to western customers could very well fall flat in Asia, and developers are often left scratching their heads to understand exactly why their app misfires. While some simply consider it impossible to get a foot in the door in the face of thousands of locally created apps, developers often fail to truly localise their apps and ensure it is relevant to the Chinese user.
For example, there are a range of cultural differences that need to be considered when making an app for China, from proper translation of the language to more subtle factors such as the meaning of colours and appropriate imagery. Furthermore, developers need to understand how unique Chinese smartphone user habits and behaviours might affect how they use an app.

Overseas developers need to ensure their app is adapted to the local market when launching in China​
The reality is that there’s more to succeeding in China than simply listing an app and waiting for the downloads to start streaming in, and it’s often important details and crucial nuances that can be the difference between an app that flops and one that flourishes. Partnering with a Chinese company that knows the market inside out can help in this regard, but having a local presence on the ground is out of reach for most developers.
That’s where Huawei is looking to step in. The technology giant is synonymous with China’s booming smartphone market. It had a 46% market share of smartphone sales in the country in the second quarter of 2020, while its app distribution platform, AppGallery, continues to go from strength to strength in China and throughout the world, having amassed 490 million active users globally. Not only does the company play a key role in China’s mobile world – its technology, products, and services have helped shape the world’s largest smartphone market and the modern Chinese smartphone user.
Huawei has the largest smartphone market share in China​
Huawei is increasingly looking to utilise this dominance and its familiarity with China’s mobile market to help facilitate global developers into the country’s app market. The goal is simple: help developers from overseas succeed in China, and the company is designating more resources and leveraging its market expertise to help achieve this. Next month the company will launch a range of new initiatives that are aimed to bridge the gap between global developers and Chinese users.
These measures will include resources to help developers overcome legal and compliance barriers and tools that enable apps to be truly localised for the Chinese market, amongst a raft of market insights, support services, and other resources. Meanwhile, the webinar will invite top game publishers in China to share exclusive insights on some of the key concerns for overseas game developers. The full suite of new measures will be unveiled in the Huawei Developer Webinar –Grow in China, Win with AppGallery, which will be livestreamed throughout the world at (13:00 CET) on Monday 9 November.

Huawei 2020 Annual Report: Challenges & Growth

[email protected]
April 2, 2021
Author and thought leader Elise Quevedo gives her take on the Huawei 2020 Annual Report.
In partnership with KPMG, Huawei has released its unmodified 2020 annual report and financial information. The report shows overall growth in sales and net profit despite a decrease in revenue in some markets and of course the global pandemic.
Huawei’s revenue for 2020 was 891.4 billion Chinese yuan (US$136 billion), a 3.8% increase over 2019.
Four areas stood out for me:
Digital Transformation
5G
HarmonyOS
R&D
Digital Transformation​Huawei Deputy Chairman Ken Hu mentioned that enterprises are prioritizing the acceleration of digital transformation. Over the last few years, digital transformation has moved to the top of the agenda of many organizations, whether or not they’ve taken any action in this regard. 86% of managers expect the digitalization trend to gather momentum, confirming that it’s a topic high on the global agenda.
A total of 253 Fortune 500 Global companies in more than 700 cities have chosen Huawei as their partner for digital transformation, with Huawei’s Enterprise Business Group enjoying the strongest growth of Huawei’s businesses at 23%.
This also shows us that companies are adapting. Has the pandemic truly supercharged the evolution and pace of digital transformation? In his speech about the report, Ken Hu mentioned that we are now 1 to 3 years ahead of previous targets for full cloud adoption.
In the enterprise context, we should also keep in mind the saying, “It is not the most intelligent or strongest that survives, but the one that is most adaptable to change.”
5G​Huawei’s carrier business hasn’t stopped moving forward, continuing to roll out 5G amid the pandemic and restrictions. The total revenue from its Carrier Business Group was 302.6 billion Chinese yuan (US$46.4 billion), a YoY increase of 0.2%.

KPMG’s unmodified audit shows the resilience of the tech brand in the face current challenges and testifies to the importance of collaboration and partnership. Indeed, without it, Huawei wouldn’t have enjoyed this growth.
During 2020, the company supported the stable operations of 1,500+ carrier networks across 170+ countries and regions. It worked with international carriers on over 3,000 5G innovation projects, across 20 industries including coal mining, steel, ports, and manufacturing.

Huawei’s RuralStar solutions continue to provide mobile Internet services for more than 50 million people living in remote areas in 60+ countries.
Huawei’s RuralStar connects Tobolo, a remote village in Nigeria
Read more: RuralStar: Remote Doesn’t Mean Out of Reach
HarmonyOS​I haven’t tried Huawei’s HarmonyOS yet. However, the annual report numbers, which show an overall consumer business growth of 3.3%, tells me that this tech giant only rolls out products when they believe they have a win-win.
Although there was a decrease in Europe, US & APAC, China sales made up for it. It is estimated that 300 million devices will run on HarmonyOS this year.
Huawei’s focus on the consumer side is on developing an ecosystem that connects all consumer devices in life, powered by HarmonyOS and Huawei Mobile Services. According to Huawei, this ecosystem will provide smart living solutions based on five scenarios: smart office, fitness & health, smart home, smart travel, and audio-visual entertainment.
Many consumers were worried that they wouldn’t be able to use their Huawei smart devices or didn’t know what to expect when HarmonyOS was released. But with the overall growth of 3.3%, we can only say it was a move that paid off.
My question is, will Europe, US, & APAC sales increase next year? Or will China continue to be the leader on the consumer side?
R&D​Since visiting the Huawei Campus back in 2019 and understanding their R&D efforts more, I’m not surprised to see they focused on recruiting more next-generation leaders, increasing their workforce by 3,000 people.
It’s no secret that Huawei ranks amongst the top companies when it comes to R&D investment, something we can consistently see in the payoff when it comes to product and solution rollouts and by the simple fact that they have one of the largest patent portfolios in the world. In 2020, the company held a total of 100,000+ active patents.
2020’s annual R&D investment totaled 141.9 billion Chinese yuan (US$21.8 billion), accounting for 15.9% of the company’s total revenue.
To summarize, all key areas of Huawei – its Carrier, Enterprise, and Consumer business groups – all saw a growth in revenue, representing a solid year despite all the challenges.
Does this mean tech companies are the ones that have survived and adapted better than the rest during the unprecedented challenges we saw in 2020? Or is it time to realize that tech companies are crucial to socioeconomics and can help multiple industries survive moving forward?
And does the report show hope that there’s a turnaround in regards to the challenges Huawei continues to face as a Chinese tech giant? Will they continue to thrive? We’ll have to wait for the 2021 report to see.

Closing the Digital Skills Gap for Inclusive Prosperity

ByJay Chen
May 18, 2021
We are not just entering an intelligent world, we are now living in one. All things are sensing, converting our physical world into digital signals. All things are connected, from humans to machines. And all things are intelligent, powered by big data and artificial intelligence. These advances make our lives easier, more responsive, and more autonomous.
The foundation of all this is new ICT includes 5G, IoT, big data, and cloud computing. But, we face a huge labor shortage. Korn Ferry research finds that Asia Pacific is facing an imminent labor shortage of 47 million people by 2030 and an annual opportunity cost of US$4.238 trillion. According to PwC’s 20th CEO Survey, more than 50% of APAC CEOs say it’s difficult to hire digital talent with the right skills.
Asia Pacific is facing an imminent labor shortage of 47 million people by 2030 and an annual opportunity cost of US$4.238 trillion​
To combat this talent shortage and also help address current learning challenges as a result of COVID-19, Huawei has launched multiple initiatives throughout Asia Pacific to provide learning services that help facilitate remote learning and enhance technical skills.
From our partnership with Bijoy Digital and UNESCO in Bangladesh to provide digital solutions to facilitate distance learning through a project called “Bridging the Education Gap”, to our efforts in Indonesia where Huawei Cloud and ULearning have partnered to provide an online learning management system (e-learning), we’re helping provide connectivity and e-learning to everyone from elementary school students, to universities, and professionals.

63,000 women have already received training through the Digital Training Bus project in Bangladesh, launched by Huawei & its partners in 2017.
Education, along with AI Healthcare and Enterprise on Cloud, is one of the three foundation services launched by Huawei Cloud as part of our global action plan to help customers fight COVID-19 with cloud and AI services. We’re actively working with partners to provide online teaching services to schools and universities during this pandemic so that teaching and learning activities can continue undisrupted.
The cloud platform will support distance learning where teachers and students can interact through audio, video, and chat rooms. Online tools will enhance the efficiency of curriculum development and allow teachers to work together remotely and share teaching materials. Apart from empowering students to learn on their own using low-latency HD VOD, the platform will distribute teaching content distribution faster, enable online exams, and monitor learning progress in real time.

Huawei has called for closer collaboration with its local partners to boost the development of joint solutions as countries move into the stage of economic recovery. As part of this, we also announced our Virtual Academy, with more than 140 free online courses to accelerate training and up-skilling of ICT professionals and SME digital transformation.
Similar programs have been established in Asia Pacific countries including Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia and the Philippines, providing thousands of ICT courses and hundreds of skilled trainers to nurture a national digital talent ecosystem. The Huawei program includes a top level design with well-defined ICT talent certification standards and a Huawei ICT Academy cooperation project for global universities. More importantly, we hold ICT competitions and job fairs for students to develop their skills, get recognized for it, and immediately secure employment opportunities in fields of their choosing.
This year, our ICT talent ecosystem cultivation programs will be extended to countries and regions such as Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and Nepal, through which we aim to develop 100,000 ICT professionals and popularize digital skills over the next five years in this dynamic region by collaborating with local governments, universities and industrial partners.
At scale, Huawei supports collaborative education with programs like Train the Trainer and our authorized training partners can deliver Huawei certification training globally. With academies and training partners established, we can promote the value of certification and help cultivate the much needed talent for the ICT industry.
We leverage our knowledge of the industry and provide Huawei certification through development solutions that allow students to learn and acquire new skills. We then use the Huawei ICT Competition and Job Fairs to allow students to get recognized and secure valuable employment at either one of our customers or partners, or even at Huawei directly.
The world ahead will be one dominated by devices: connecting, sensing, and reacting to everything around us. We hope our education programs not only reaffirms our commitment to social responsibility, but also prepares the next generation of experts to design and navigate this digital landscape.
Our future depends on it.
