Wireless Intelligent Personal Server The National Institute of Standards and Technology sponsors a series of advanced technology projects.  One of the more interesting projects is the wireless intelligent personal server (WIPS) being researched by Rosetta Wireless.  The project proposes to achieve an "order of magnitude" increase in the reliability of data transmitted over RF circuits.  This and other related projects offer opportunities for creating "killer apps" to stimulate statewide interest of the developing Utah Wireless Integrated Network (UWIN).  I am trying to learn more about the new NIST network for first responders.
