Now that the work group has published the MTM specification and a reference architecture, when do you anticipate implementation of the MTM? How will be it be
implemented?

The TCG doesn't ask its members to disclose sensitive commercial information, such as
timescales for implementation of MTMs and their incorporation into mobiles. MTMs could be
implemented as one or more discrete chips, or as software on security chips that are already in
some mobiles.

Which use cases do you believe will be implemented first?

The most popular use cases cannot easily be predicted because they depend on individual
business models. However, the "Platform Integrity" use case is likely to be a natural
accompaniment to any other use case, because platform integrity is at the heart of all Use Cases.
