Conference Papers

  • Broadband: demand drivers
    What are the needs of services and applications of the market: games, movies, music, education, health, IPTV, video telephony? Or is the strongest demand coming from plain old personal communication and business data? Is the right approach just to build, now we know how much business, govt and community depend on it? How can we accelerate the growth of critical mass for ubiquity and universality? How do we compare, in productivity and strategies with leaders such as Korea, Japan and Singapore? What can we learn from the global leaders, and what strategies are already working here?
  • Reaching stranded consumers: broadband & TV delivery
    This workshop brought telcos and broadcasters together to look at giving domestic and SME consumers better broadband access. Challenges include local government restrictions, town planning laws, lack of co-operation between utilities, and possibly lack of communications infrastructure development generally. Problem-solving technologies include FTTP, ADSL2+ and wireless broadband. But which is realistic for what markets?
  • 3G content & mobile devices
    3G take-up in 2005 marks a new era in communications, with mobile devices such as phones and PDAs becoming major channels to the consumer. This seminar looked at ways to help the creation of content from all sources, including new enterprises and application developers, and existing media and Internet.
  • Digital rights: management & co-operation
    These papers report on the Digital rights: management & co-operation seminar about how Australian enterprises can manage rights sensibly and even creatively, in the interests of providers and consumers.
  • Reviewing the progress of digital TV
    This seminar was triggered by the government reviews of digital TV. The difference between this and our several earlier events about digital TV is that now there has been enough consumer take-up to start making serious projections. This applies to both free-to-air and subscription. 8 June 2004.
  • Broadband: serious business
    These papers draw together the best available experts to examine what are the real demand drivers, and how we produce a tangible, sustainable return on the massive investment required. 25 November 2003.
  • Digital free to air TV: getting serious
    The purpose of this seminar was to spread as much knowledge as possible about the progress of DTTB, and the prospects for extending it rapidly to the whole population. 12 August 2003.
  • Changes to spectrum allocation & communications regulators
    The government is likely to make decisions by Christmas 2002, or soon thereafter, about a new spectrum allocation system and merger of regulators. Several players asked us to provide this one opportunity to canvass the issues, and to help all to understand and discuss them.
