The Redmond giant is even cooking an application programming interface to enable the development of context-aware programs for the next iteration of Windows.
At the same time, the company is preparing to deliver the Windows 7: New APIs for Building Context-Aware Applications session at the Professional Developers Conference 2008 at the end of October in Las Vegas. Still, Microsoft was shy about producing any detail about the session, although Daniel Kornev, Developer Evangelist, Microsoft Russia, managed to deliver a sneak peek.
“Of course the most intriguing session is Windows 7: New APIs for Building Context-Aware Applications. This one will be lead by Dan Polivy, he is Senior Program Manager at PC|3 division (which is part of COSD and is led by CVP Bill Mitchell, who is famous by the big project Tablet PC he owned at Microsoft). I can’t say more on this topic until PDC, but be sure, this will be a VERY interesting topic, really!” Kornev stated.
According to data available from Microsoft, the PC3 team is a group inside the Core Operating System Division working to reinvent the Windows wheel when it comes down to mobile PCs. PC3 is focused on developing a range of solutions and resources, from tools to applications, in order to integrate the latest hardware inventions with Windows.
The work done by PC3 has reverberated across products such as OLPC XO, Intel ClassMate PCs, ASUS EEE series PCs and even the Origami Experience for ultra-mobile PCs. In fact, PC3's mission is to produce the next generation of solutions tailored to netbook and ultra-mobile PCs.
“The track on Communications Applications will get you into the new world of Sound subsystem in Windows 7 that will also enable you to build the great context-aware applications for Windows platform. EVERY attendee will get his own copy of Windows 7 pre-beta bits, but, first time you’ll be able to play with bits and create first context-aware applications for Windows Platform,” Kornev added.
