Talk:Edholm's law

Wireless vs. nomadic
What is the difference between wireless networks and nomadic networks? --Abdull (talk) 20:16, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Wireless networks, according to Edholm's concept is a category for mobile while the Nomadic category includes wireless network without mobility. This info has been added to the article. Darwin Naz (talk) 23:09, 2 January 2019 (UTC)

Reversion 04/03/2014
I reverted the article to a previous version on April 3 2014. The article had been replaced with a critique of the idea. Whether or not this critique (quoted below) is valid, the original text seemed to do a better job of explaining what Elholm's law is, its origin, etc. Ideally, the two texts could be combined into an expanded article.

reverted version

"There is a mention of Edholm's law in a IEEE Spectrum article [1] but there is no explicit statement or reference to a statement of the law. There is, however, a reference to a graph which shows the well known phenomenon that technology improves with time such that as time progresses bits per second carried by wireline and wireless increases. Extrapolating forward indicates a convergence between the rates of nomadic and wireless technologies around 2030 - but the lines are not parallel and such a extrapolation would suggest that wireless capability would exceed wired one. Such extrapolations are generally regarded as bad science."

 * If there is a notable source criticizing Edholm's Law, then it could be included in the article. However, the edit cited above is not only a critique but appears to be a critique of the editor himself, hence, must be deleted. Darwin Naz (talk) 23:09, 2 January 2019 (UTC)
