Zimpost
The document discusses how postal networks can harness technology to improve services like speed, access, and financial inclusion. It argues the postal service can integrate the financial, electronic, and physical domains by investing in technologies that provide 24/7 access through multiple channels. This would allow the postal service to offer affordable agency banking services, partner with money transfer companies, and provide information centers in rural areas. However, factors like low technology adoption and lack of integration limit the postal service. The document concludes the postal service should champion innovation to fully leverage technology and partnerships for growth.
Whose Copyright Economy
The document discusses the challenges of applying traditional copyright laws to the digital world. It notes that digital technologies allow for near-zero copying and distribution costs, which is incompatible with centralized control of copying. New rules are needed to address issues like maximizing access to and use of content while still supporting content creators. However, determining these new rules raises difficult questions around topics like privacy, censorship, accessibility, and balancing the interests of content providers, distributors, and consumers.
Information Super Highway
The document discusses the information superhighway (I-Way). It describes I-Way as a high-capacity, interactive electronic pipeline providing integrated services. The document outlines the key components of I-Way, including network access equipment, the last mile, and global information distribution networks. It also examines the public policy issues that shape I-Way, such as cost, subsidies, regulation, and universal access.

Regulations and consumer protection in a converged environment
This document discusses the history and growth of ICT entrepreneurship in Kenya from 1980 to present day. It covers the early introduction of paging and cellular services in the 1980s and 90s, the social impacts of improved connectivity, and the rapid expansion of both technologies and their adoption after 1995. The document also examines issues around consumer protection and privacy in the current converging environment of increased internet usage, mobile connectivity, and emerging technologies like the Internet of Things. It questions if consumers' constitutional privacy rights are being observed and if regulations are sufficiently future-proof to address these new challenges.

The document discusses Over-the-Top (OTT) services from a regulator's perspective. It defines OTT as applications and services that do not have their own infrastructure and operate over networks not controlled by the service provider. OTT services are becoming an issue as they offer free services using connectivity and break the relationship between consumers and telecom operators. This can risk operators being seen as "dumb pipes." The document also discusses net neutrality and its implications in developing economies, where addressing the digital divide should take priority over equal access to content. Overall, the categorization of internet services and revenues from broadband access impact broadband development differently between mature and developing economies.
Wired Philadelphia
The document discusses Philadelphia's creation of a municipal wireless network called Wired Philadelphia. It notes that Philadelphia once struggled economically but now aims to address its lack of internet access. In 2004, Philadelphia created the nonprofit Wired Philadelphia through a partnership with Earthlink. This allowed the city to provide free wireless access to underprivileged residents and public areas, while also generating profit through other paid services.
Copyright economy updated
The document discusses the challenges of copyright law in the digital age. It notes that digital technology allows for near-zero copying costs and decentralized distribution, unlike the printing press which required centralized control of copying. This poses challenges to the traditional copyright system of balancing the interests of content creators, publishers, and consumers. The document considers possible new goals and approaches for copyright law given the technological changes.
convergence of technologies
Digital convergence refers to the convergence of various types of data such as text, voice, video and graphics into digital form, driven by industries such as telecommunications, IT, internet and media. Messaging convergence groups services that integrate SMS with voice, examples being Voice SMS, Spin Vox, IVR and MMS, which is helpful for call centers, media companies and broadcasters. Some operators have also launched services that combine SMS with mobile instant messaging.
Internet Regulatory Framework
1) E-commerce has led to legal issues as business and consumers increasingly conduct transactions online. Security concerns make people reluctant to do online business.
2) Laws are needed to provide predictability for online transactions and protect internet users. The UNCITRAL Model Law on Electronic Commerce establishes rules for forming legally-valid electronic contracts across jurisdictions.
3) The Model Law aims to validate electronic contracts, define electronic writings and signatures, and support the use of computer evidence in legal proceedings. This framework makes online business transactions more consistent and predictable.

Cooperatives: drivers of the argentinean information industryDialogo regional sobre Sociedad de la Información
The document explores the role of telecommunications cooperatives in promoting innovation in Argentina's information industry. It finds that cooperatives have innovated through business alliances, diversifying their services, and building infrastructure. They make decisions openly with community involvement. However, managing alliances between independent cooperatives has challenges. While reforms initially protected cooperatives, current laws prohibit some of their services. Overall, cooperatives have engaged in innovation through open models, but the regulatory environment could better support their local economic impact.Information superhighway

I WAY (SUPER HIGHWAY INFORMATION)
The document discusses the role of networks in enabling e-commerce and the information superhighway or I-way. It describes how the I-way allows sharing of information globally using technologies like satellite, fiber optics, and cellular networks. Large alliances between communication, entertainment and information sectors are needed due to the large resource requirements to build the I-way infrastructure. The I-way has changed how businesses market, advertise and sell products and services by providing a high-speed global communications network.

Net Neutrality
This document discusses network neutrality, which is the principle that all internet traffic should be treated equally without restrictions on content or platforms. It provides a brief history of net neutrality concerns, including legislation supporting net neutrality in 2007 and companies blocking or throttling traffic in 2007-2008. The document outlines arguments for and against net neutrality. Proponents believe it fosters innovation and open communication, while opponents such as cable and telecommunications companies argue they have invested in infrastructure and need mechanisms for upstarts to pay for network use.
Fit-for-purpose broadband
This document discusses how the focus on broadband speed may not align with customer needs and priorities. While speed is important, it is a weak proxy for quality of experience (QoE) and reliability, which customers actually value more. Regulators and investors are questioning if investments in speed are providing returns. The market is evolving from a supply-push model focused on speed to a demand-pull model prioritizing trustworthiness, dependability and convenience over peak speeds. Going forward, the broadband industry needs to ensure its offerings are "fit-for-purpose" to meet actual customer demands rather than just technical specifications.
Dr. Malte Behrmann, Games für Mobile Phones und Pads
This document discusses the European Game Developer Federation (EGDF), which represents over 500 game development studios and 15,500 employees across Europe. It addresses the importance of games as both an economic and cultural force, noting they are at the intersection of cultural diversity, job creation, and technological innovation. However, independent developers face challenges of rising costs and limited access to funding outside of publishers. The document also explores trends in game platforms moving toward convergence and the increasing relevance of online and mobile games.
Telecommunications Policy in an IP World
This document summarizes key principles for local governments regarding telecommunications policy in an IP world. It discusses how traditional principles of universal availability, consumer protection from market abuses, and subsidizing services where needed still apply, despite technological changes. Specifically, new fiber and digital technologies may disrupt costs but can also increase monopoly power if one provider builds the infrastructure. Local governments therefore have roles in consumer protection through policies like data caps, universal build outs, and carrier of last resort obligations. They can also promote economic development through non-discrimination rules and managing rights of way. As the largest landlord and a major user, local governments should ensure fair rents and prices through bulk purchasing power or self-provisioning if needed.

Technology Will Destroy Our Planet
Technology is undoubtedly destroying the planet through its negative environmental impacts. Transportation like automobiles is a major contributor to air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. Raw material extraction such as coal mining, oil drilling, and fracking pollutes land, water, and air. Other technologies such as pesticides, nuclear energy, and farming practices harm ecosystems. However, renewable energy sources like solar, wind, and ocean power could help reduce environmental damage if societies shift away from fossil fuels and toward more sustainable options. Overall, overuse of resources and lack of alternatives are forcing the planet to bear the consequences of unchecked technological development.

Music therapy senior boards
Music therapy is used to treat patients with conditions like those in the NICU, Down Syndrome, and Parkinson's disease. The document discusses how music has been used medicinally for thousands of years by cultures like the Greeks and Native Americans. Today, music therapy is studied in over 70 universities. The author facilitated music sessions for patients using songs like Twinkle Twinkle Little Star and struggled with feeling unprepared but learned to control their emotions and that music is their passion and life.
Internet privacy presentation
The document discusses internet privacy and whether it is still possible to protect yourself online. It outlines some of the risks to privacy like social media oversharing, facial recognition software, and tracking cookies. However, it also provides steps people can take to secure their information, such as using strong passwords, updating virus protection, limiting what they share, and checking their online profiles regularly. While privacy risks exist, the document argues that privacy is not completely dead if users take active measures to protect themselves.

What is e-commerce
E-commerce refers to business transactions conducted online over the internet. It allows companies to market directly to consumers anywhere in the world using technology. While selling was previously limited by social and geographical boundaries, e-commerce has challenged this by giving consumers more information on prices and quality globally. There are various types of e-commerce including business-to-business, business-to-consumer, consumer-to-consumer, and mobile commerce. The technology is expected to continue growing and propagating throughout more commercial activities in the future.

The global economy is consolidating around a few large digital platforms that control competitive bottlenecks and access to users. Known as "hub firms", companies like Google and Facebook have transformed industries by plugging adjacent sectors into their existing networks. To remain competitive, traditional companies must identify defendable areas and become hubs themselves, ensuring multi-homing and supporting alternative hubs through collective action. Responsible network leadership will also be important to balance value creation across the digital ecosystem.
Globalization and e commerce
Globalization and the rise of e-commerce have led to greater "time-space compression" in business. While e-commerce allows small businesses to reach global audiences at low cost, it also risks exacerbating the "digital divide" between those with and without internet access. Issues around intellectual property rights and the collection of tariffs and taxes across international e-commerce transactions remain challenges, particularly for developing countries. Addressing gaps in infrastructure access, enforcing copyright laws, and developing international policies on taxation will help mitigate risks from increasing digital trade.

The Future of the Connected Living Room
Today’s TV consumer is a highly demanding one. Not only do they want to watch video on any number of screens - from a 50” flat panel to an iPad to the smartphone in their pockets - they want to find, recommend and view TV content using new software frameworks being made available on new connected devices. This coming explosion in software-centric viewing, sharing and consumption will change the digital living room forever. Long standing norms around content discovery, interaction and monetization will change dramatically in coming years.

Globalization refers to the integration of goods, services, and culture among nations accelerated by advances in technology. While globalization provides advantages like access to expertise and larger markets, firms face challenges from infrastructure differences, regulations and customs. The digital divide separates those who have access to technology and the internet from those who do not, and can occur between countries, regions or neighborhoods. Nielsen described the digital divide as having three stages: an initial economic divide in access, a usability divide in skills, and a deeper empowerment divide in how technology is used.
TECHNOLOGICAL ENVIROMENT.pptx
This document discusses technological environment and its key aspects. It defines technology and explains how it is always changing. It outlines the widespread impact of technology through business and how it leads to higher consumer expectations and more complex systems. Technology drives social change and increases economic productivity. Online channels like social media and e-commerce are discussed, along with how e-commerce works in India and the advantages of online services.
E commerce unit 1
This document provides an overview of e-commerce, including its definition, key concepts, models, and benefits/limitations. It defines e-commerce as business transactions conducted electronically and notes it initially started in 1948. The models of e-commerce discussed include B2B, B2C, B2G, C2C, C2G, and C2B. Benefits listed are operational cost savings, international marketplaces, and mass customization. Limitations include security/reliability issues, technology evolution, and lack of trust in online interactions. Intranets and extranets are also summarized.
Globalisation
Globalization refers to the integration of goods, services, and culture among nations accelerated by advances in technology. While globalization allows businesses to access new markets and expertise worldwide, firms face challenges from infrastructure differences, regulations and customs. The "digital divide" describes unequal access to technology, which Nielsen categorizes into an initial economic divide, later a usability divide, and ultimately an "empowerment divide" where few leverage technology's full capabilities.

Overcoming the 3 digital divides - a book chapter by Eli Noam
- 1. OVERCOMING THE 3 DIGITAL DIVIDES Eli Noam
- 2. Introduction • The importance of the e in the new economy: dot-coms, new media companies, e- commerce. • Digital divide: inequalities between groups in terms of access to, use of, or knowledge of information and communication technologies (ICT)*. It is implied to be bad. Digital divide. (n.d.). In Wikipedia. Retrieved September 12, 2012, from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_divide
- 3. In the future • Internet connectivity will be near universal. • Access mechanisms will become user-friendly or user-independent, away from the personal computer. • Income, location and demand will be factors for bandwidth consumption.
- 4. 3 gaps • Telecommunications connectivity. Counterbalanced by infrastructure investment and policy reforms. • Internet access. Counterbalanced by establishing flat-rate telecom pricing, widespread use of IP telephony, public Internet access points, and e-mail usage for some government-citizens business. • e-commerce
- 5. Global dynamics of e-transactions • The price of international transmission is dropping rapidly; • domestic internet penetration is increasing rapidly; and • most e-commerce applications have strong economies of scale. • US role
- 6. It is expensive to do e-commerce well • Many systems need to be in place and integrated: – Supply chain EDI (electronic data interchange) – Payment systems – Integration with financial institutions – Fulfilment systems (process that follows after buying a product) – Customer data mining – Production – Customization – Community creation – Creation of the consumer lock-in by additional features.
- 7. Implications • The return of economies of scale. • High fixed costs of e-commerce operations. • Low marginal costs: the variable cost of spreading the service to the entire world is relatively low. • Positive network externalities on the demand side.
- 8. Television over the internet • Will it be a multicultural richness of many national sources or will it be more Hollywood?
- 9. Internet TV • Interactivity – multimedia – new creation • Internet TV can work economically only as a premium medium or a specialised medium.
- 10. Internet TV • Interactivity – multimedia – new creation • Internet TV can work economically only as a premium medium or a specialised medium.
