The London 2012 Games Provided a Showcase of Leading Technologies, from HD Wi-fi to security

• Time12:30 ~ 13:30
• PlaceMeeting Room 201, International Conference Hall

speaker

Lord Sebastian Coe stated that “running an Olympic Games is the largest logistical challenge a country can face outside of a war” and this was certainly true for London in 2012 and it is quite likely that the same thing will apply for Tokyo in 2020. By the time that a country has won the honor of hosting the Games and then putting together their local xOCOG, there is generally only 6 years of planning to put together a perfect 6 weeks of the Games.
However, for planning purposes, the technology design needs to be solidified approximately 2 years prior to the start of the Games in order to allow for getting it fully operational and stable. Additionally, there are typically competitions within many of the Olympic venues as much as 1 year in advance, where the technology and venue has to be completely built up and ready to go. Therefore, there is really only a window of 4 years to get the technology roadmap through critical design and service design reviews, with the added complication of trying to predict the future of where technology is going.
For London, one huge change occurred that no one had predicted, and that was the introduction of the iPhone in July 2007 which completely changed the mobile landscape from mostly voice traffic to almost completely data traffic at tremendously higher volumes. The key to BT’s success on the telecommunications infrastructure architecture was an initial decision to overprovision by significant amounts as well as to have 2-4x redundancy in all parts of the system. Thus, when BT had to implement the world’s largest high density WiFi network, the basic foundation was already in place to fully support it.
