CCIA Comments in ITU CWG-Internet OTT Open Consultation.Pdf
CCIA Response to the Open Consultation of the ITU Council Working Group on International Internet-related Public Policy Issues (CWG-Internet) on the “Public Policy considerations for OTTs” Summary. The Computer & Communications Industry Association welcomes this opportunity to present the views of the tech sector to the ITU’s Open Consultation of the CWG-Internet on the “Public Policy considerations for OTTs”.1 CCIA acknowledges the ITU’s expertise in the areas of international, technical standards development and spectrum coordination and its ambition to help improve access to ICTs to underserved communities worldwide. We remain supporters of the ITU’s important work within its current mandate and remit; however, we strongly oppose expanding the ITU’s work program to include Internet and content-related issues and Internet-enabled applications that are well beyond its mandate and core competencies. Furthermore, such an expansion would regrettably divert the ITU’s resources away from its globally-recognized core competencies. The Internet is an unparalleled engine of economic growth enabling commerce, social development and freedom of expression. Recent research notes the vast economic and societal benefits from Rich Interaction Applications (RIAs), a term that refers to applications that facilitate “rich interaction” such as photo/video sharing, money transferring, in-app gaming, location sharing, translation, and chat among individuals, groups and enterprises.2 Global GDP has increased US$5.6 trillion for every ten percent increase in the usage of RIAs across 164 countries over 16 years (2000 to 2015).3 However, these economic and societal benefits are at risk if RIAs are subjected to sweeping regulations. -

SVERIAN Scientific LAN Messenger Pooja Purohit, Sakhare Shital, Kothari Rasika and Jadhav Dipali Department of Computer Engineering, SVERI’s College of Engineering (Poly.), Pandharpur Student Article Abstract: This is LAN messenger application; it’s a social media project for Final year college students. It is a Client – server application program developed in Visual Studio 2005 (VB .NET). Here the individual can chat with other individual through LAN connection. Even they can exchange file through one computer to other. Administrator can view chat logs through server. Here no need of Internet access. This application can be used in all workplace which is helpful in submitting information and to connect with workplace staff. Introduction: A LAN messenger is an instant messaging program designed for use within a single local area network (LAN). Many LAN messengers offer basic functionality for sending private messages, file transfer , chat rooms and graphical smileys . The advantage of using a simple LAN messenger over a normal instant messenger is that no active Internet connection or central server is required - and only people inside the firewall will have access to the system. LAN messenger is an easy to use, server based LAN messaging application for effective communication. It is correctly identified and works under all operating systems with unlimited user accounts and is the only secure messenger. The simple interface makes special training needless . Literature Review: The LM uses two-tier client server architecture as shown in figure 1. The application handling is completed separately for database queries and updates and for business logic processing and user interface presentation. -

Instant Messaging
Instant Messaging what’s so gr8 about it? Cybertour | March 18 | Cindi Trainor 1 What is IM? Communicate real-time Users are notified when others come online Can share files, communicate via video with most programs IM vs “chat rooms”: When chat first came about, a user would log into a room full of people who were all interested in the same topic, and all those people saw everyone’s messages, but users could send “private” messages to an individual, if desired. IM is kind of the opposite: users primarily send messages to individuals but can set up multiple user chat rooms if desired (but users control who’s in a multi-user chat by invitation). 2 Why Use IM? Instant communication Send links, files, photos instantly Can multi-task Our users are familiar with it 3 Common Features Contacts list “Display picture” – an Customize your icon representing you messages’ Privacy features appearance Log conversations Games Set your status: Send and receive “away,” “offline,” files “busy,” etc. Multi-user chat Emoticons (“smilies”) Profiles With major IM programs, users add only the people that they want to chat with to a contacts list (buddy list, friends list). Messages’ appearance: font face, color, size Files: photos, dox, etc (can sometimes be slow vs using email with attachments) Multi-user chat: “chat rooms” Icons: some are static, some are animated or even customizable “avatars.” Privacy: can set it so that only your buddies can contact you; most have invisible mode 4 But… chat reference? IM is chat reference Hosted systems can be expensive, OR Use IM to supplement hosted system If you aren’t using chat reference in your library, IM is a cheap alternative to hosted systems to get your feet wet.
