A national telephone warning system to alert people to a bushfire emergency will begin operating next week.
The Victorian Government has announced that Telstra has been chosen to build a national phone-based warning system.
Telstra claims it has been inundated with hundreds of entries for its research and development talent quest to be judged in November by the telco's chief technology officer.
A massive failure of the triple-zero system to handle phone calls on the day of Victoria's Black Saturday bushfires was due to the technical shortcomings among the state's emergency services, the Bushfires Royal Commission has heard.
After years of discussions and months of government wrangling, it's finally time for Telstra to close down CDMA for good. So how will the telco go about switching off an entire network?
Legislators must not make the mistake of subjecting Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) offerings to the same rules as telephony services, the heads of the global Internet regulator said.
