TFCI
is happy to present India's premier event for the Telecommunication and
Networking industries - CommAsia 2000 conference, scheduled to
be held at The Taj Mahal Hotel, Mumbai, between 16-18 May, 2000
|
| |
|
The telecommunication
industry has undergone a profound change. From Deregulation to privatization
to telecom services, to liberalization of Indian telecom policies, increase
in competition, introduction of new technologies, and Internet and convergence
of technologies. Today, a typical end-to-end solution combines a TELECOM
application or service with an IT application. What is paramount here
is TELECOM and IT services and applications that make businesses more
competitive, productive, and profitable
At long last
we see the telecom industry getting its due, as the Government awakens
to the realization that none of the major social, economic or technological
developments would be worthwhile without having a world-class telecom
infrastructure in place.
|
| |
|
At its second
edition of CommAsia 2000 will provide that all important close-up
to TELECOM and IT, where they can work as true partners, all equally responsible
for understanding and meeting the needs of the business user. With convergence,
each side has to understand what the other is doing, and where they are
headed.

Communications Mobile
data is now one of the hottest of today's hot topics in electronic communications.
Increasingly transported at greater speeds and in larger bundles, it looks
certain to make mobile commerce more than just a flash in the pan. This
session will examine some of the policy and regulatory issues related
to the provision of both terrestrial and satellite-based wireless telecommunication
services. These include pricing, licensing, frequency, numbering, roaming,
standardization and competition issues.

| The
role of the cell phone in the convergence revolution : |
| |
| In the
last five years, two major trends have taken place - mobility, which has
been brought about by cell phones, and the internet. In the next five years,
these two trends would converge and mobile internet would be the thing that
we all would be working towards in the next few years. That is bringing
internet access to every pocket. |
