The changes that occur during a star ’s life are called stellar evolution. The mass of a star determines the ultimate fate of a star.

capabilities were introduced to support data transmission. However‚ the data rates were generally lower than that supported by dial-up connections. The ITU-R initiative on IMT-2000 (international mobile Telecommunications 2000) paved the way for evolution to 3G. A set of requirements such as a peak data rate of 2 Mb/s and support for vehicular mobility were published under IMT-2000 initiative. Both the GSM and CDMA camps formed their own separate 3G partnership projects (3GPP and 3GPP2‚ respectively)
