Type the following piece of text in 11 points, Times New Roman font, withoutcaringabout its formatting:The Crossover A new business opportunity is coming up at the junction of hardwareand software embedded technology An Indian boy selling newspapers at Stockholmrailway station was unusual enough for Sunil to investigate. The boy turned out tobe a student at the Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden. He talked excitedly aboutan idea for a pace marker that lasted much longer than the ones available in themarket. "Why don't you come and develop this product in my laboratory?" askedSunil. The lab is a center of excellence for embedded systems at Tata Consultancyservices (TCS) in Bangalore. Sunil had set it up only a year ago, after quitting SaskenCommunication Systems. "I had approached TCS with this idea of an embeddedsystems lab and TCS had agreed," say Sunil. Despite being the largest softwareservices company in India, TCS had not worked on embedded system other than intelecommunications. It was slow off the blocks, but the company was trying to makeup for lost time. Sunil's lab's mandate was not to provide services. It would toresearch, develop technologies, and build product; not just software but completedevices. Whenever a product came out, it would be sold under the TCS brand name.The first device could be patient health monitoring system. The next one could be abox that would increase spectrum utilization in CDMA (code division multiple access)networks. The third device could be the boy's pacemaker. The embedded system labis also building competencies in three areas: wireless LAN (local area network),multimedia and medical electronics. TCS is about to take over a wireless LAN firm inDemark. This firm has a key technology that will strengthen the TCS portfolio. TCS isalso sponsoring research at the University of Demark. Indian software companieshave no history of sponsoring research at universities. Neither do they design andsell devices. So is this a short fi t of absent-mindedness or a long-term strategicshift?
