   The first BlackBerry device, the 850, was introduced in 1999 as a two-way pager. In 2002, the more commonly known Smartphone BlackBerry was released, which supports push e-mail, mobile telephone, text messaging, Internet faxing, Web browsing and other wireless information services. It is an example of a convergence (telecommunications)convergent device. The original BlackBerry devices, the RIM 850 and 857, used the DataTac network.
   BlackBerry first made headway in the marketplace by concentrating on e-mail. RIM currently offers BlackBerry e-mail service to non-BlackBerry devices, such as the Palm Treo, through its BlackBerry Connect software.
   The original BlackBerry device had a monochrome display, but all current models have color displays. All models except for the Storm Series had a built-in QWERTY keyboard, optimized for "thumbing", the use of only the thumbs to type. The Storm 1 and Storm 2 include a SureType keypad for typing, and are the two models that are full touch-screen devices with no physical keyboard. Originally, system navigation was achieved with the use of a scroll wheel mounted on the right side of phones prior to the 8700. The trackwheel was replaced by the trackball with the introduction of the Pearl series which allowed for 4 way scrolling. The trackball was replaced by the optical trackpad with the introduction of the Curve 8500 series. Models manufactured for use with IDEN networks such as Nextel and Mike also incorporate a push-to-talk (PTT) feature, similar to a two-way radio.

INDUSTRIAL ENGINEERING
   Industrial engineering is a branch of engineering dealing with the optimization of complex processes or systems. It is concerned with the development, improvement, implementation and evaluation of integrated systems of people, money, knowledge, information, equipment, energy, materials, analysis and synthesis, as well as the mathematical, physical and social sciences together with the principles and methods of engineering design to specify, predict, and evaluate the results to be obtained from such systems or processes. Its underlying concepts overlap considerably with certain business-oriented disciplines such as Operations Management, but the engineering side tends to emphasize extensive mathematical proficiency and usage of quantitative methods.
   Depending on the sub-speciality (ies) involved, industrial engineering may also be known as operations management, management science, operations research, systems engineering, or manufacturing engineering, usually depending on the viewpoint or motives of the user. Educational establishments use the names to differentiate themselves from others. In health care, industrial engineers are more commonly known as health management engineers or health systems engineers.
   While the term originally applied to manufacturing, the use of "industrial" in "industrial engineering" can be somewhat misleading, since it has grown to encompass any methodical or quantitative approach to optimizing how a process, system, or organization operates. Some engineering universities and educational agencies around the world have changed the term “industrial” to the broader term “production”, leading to the typical extensions noted above. In fact, the primary U.S. professional organization for Industrial Engineers, the Institute of Industrial Engineers (IIE) has been considering changing its name to something broader (such as the Institute of Industrial & Systems Engineers), although the latest vote among membership deemed this unnecessary for the time being.

1.-QUALITY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM.

   The concept of quality as we think of it now first emerged out of the Industrial Revolution. Previously goods had been made from start to finish by the same person or team of people, with handcrafting and tweaking the product to meet 'quality criteria'. Mass production brought huge teams of people together to work on specific stages of production where one person would not necessarily complete a product from start to finish. In the late 19th century pioneers such as Frederick Winslow Taylor and Henry Ford recognized the limitations of the methods being used in mass production at the time and the subsequent varying quality of output. Birland established Quality Departments to oversee the quality of production and rectifying of errors, and Ford emphasized standardization of design and component standards to ensure a standard product was produced. Management of quality was the responsibility of the Quality department and was implemented by Inspection of product output to 'catch' defects.
   Application of statistical control came later as a result of World War production methods. Quality management systems are the outgrowth of work done by W. Edwards Deming, a statistician, after whom the Deming Prize for quality is named.
   Quality, as a profession and the managerial process associated with the quality function, was introduced during the second-half of the 20th century, and has evolved since then. Over this period, few other disciplines have seen as many changes as the quality profession.
   The quality profession grew from simple control, to engineering, to systems engineering. Quality control activities were predominant in the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s. The 1970s were an era of quality engineering and the 1990s saw quality systems as an emerging field. Like medicine, accounting, and engineering, quality has achieved status as a recognized profession.
2.- Texto en Español:
   El concepto de calidad como pensamos ahora apareció por primera vez fuera de la Revolución Industrial. Anteriormente se habían realizado los bienes de principio a fin por la misma persona o equipo de personas, con artesanía y ajustar el producto no cumple "los criterios de calidad". La producción en masa traído grandes equipos de personas para trabajar en etapas específicas de la producción cuando una persona no necesariamente terminar un producto de principio a fin. En los pioneros de finales del siglo 19, tales como Frederick Winslow Taylor y Henry Ford reconoció las limitaciones de los métodos que se utilizan en la producción en masa en el momento y la posterior calidad variable de salida. Birland Departamentos de Calidad establecidos para supervisar la calidad de la producción y reparación de errores, y Ford hizo hincapié en la normalización de estándares de diseño y componentes para asegurar un producto estándar se haya producido. Gestión de la calidad es responsabilidad del departamento de Calidad y se llevó a cabo por la inspección de la producción de un producto a la 'captura' defectos.
   Aplicación de control estadístico que vino después, como resultado de los métodos de producción mundial de Guerra. Sistemas de gestión de la calidad son el resultado del trabajo realizado por W. Edwards Deming, estadístico, de quien el Premio Deming para la calidad se llama.
   La calidad, como una profesión y el proceso de gestión asociadas a la función de calidad, fue presentado durante la segunda mitad del siglo 20, y ha evolucionado desde entonces. Durante este período, algunas otras disciplinas se han visto tantos cambios como la profesión de calidad.
   La profesión de la calidad pasó de un control sencillo, a la ingeniería, la ingeniería de sistemas. Actividades de control de calidad fueron predominantes en los años 1940, 1950 y 1960. La década de 1970 fueron una época de ingeniería de calidad y la década de 1990 vio a los sistemas de calidad como un campo emergente. Como la medicina, la contabilidad y la ingeniería, la calidad ha alcanzado el estatus como una profesión reconocida.
