Then, Sii engineers designed a number of software update versions (taking into account different dialects, profiles and card operating systems) and developed over twenty OTA (Over-The-Air) campaigns, which enabled our client to have a remote software update for all its service subscribers with no need to involve end users.<\/p>\n<h2>Effects<\/h2>\n<p>The Client received a complete solution which enabled them to use the operator\u2019s network infrastructure for the update of software in all or selected service subscribers in many countries.
