description: The importance of composition, size, crystal structure, charge and coating of metal-based nanomaterials (NMs) were evaluated in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and/or THP-1 monocytic cells. Biomarkers of oxidative stress and inflammation were assessed because they are important in the development of cardiovascular diseases. The NMs used were five TiO2 NMs with different charge, size and crystal structure, coated and uncoated ZnO NMs and Ag which were tested in a wide concentration range. There were major differences between the types of NMs; exposure to ZnO and Ag resulted in cytotoxicity and increased gene expression levels of HMOX1 and IL8. The intracellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1(VCAM-1) expression were highest in TiO2 NM-exposed cells. There was increased adhesion of THP-1 monocytic cells onto HUVECs with Ag exposure. None of the NMs increased the intracellular ROS production. There were no major effects of the coating of ZnO NMs. The TiO2 NMs data on ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 expression suggested that the anatase form was more potent than the rutile form. In addition, the larger TiO2 NM was more potent than the smaller for gene expression and ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 expression. The toxicological profile of cardiovascular disease-relevant biomarkers depended on composition, size and crystal structure of TiO2 NMs, whereas the charge on TiO2 NMs and the coating of ZnO NMs were not associated with differences in toxicological profile.

description: This paper was originally published in Telecommunication Journal of Australia, Volume 23, No 3, 1973. It was presented as the opening paper at the UNESCO Seminar on the 'Communication Revolution' held in Melbourne on 20-24 August, 1973.The Australian Post Office has just commenced a complex operation to plan the course of telecommunications in Australia beyond the year 2000 A.D. This article indicates the national significance of the undertaking and the complexities of the issues involved. The potential facilities which may be offered to subscribers are outlined, some of which call for a network of markedly different capabilities to the existing telephone networks. There are conceptual attractions in providing all facilities in a single wideband distribution network but there are also offsetting difficulties which must be examined. Even if a single distribution network is adopted there may well be several switching networks.Facilities of the type envisaged will have far reaching impacts on major facets of society such as town planning, transport patterns, education, structure of the economy and behaviour patterns.The telecommunications planner is entering new and little-charted fields which will call for close relationships with other professional disciplines and extensive consultation with relevant groups in society.

Can broadband support environmental sustainability?: an exploration of claims at the household level
Creators: name: Middleton, Catherine
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: This paper looks at the ways in which broadband networks can support sustainability, focusing on the actions of individual consumers in Australia. It centres on the arguments that broadband can be used to substitute physical products with digital ones, and to substitute physical activities (like travel) with digital ones (like videoconferencing and telework). Data on current broadband availability, uptake and usage in Australia are presented. The idea that broadband technologies are currently taken up in ways that encourage sustainable action is challenged, noting that average users are not yet sufficiently interested in, or comfortable with broadband technologies to act in ways that enable sustainability. Recognising that broadband networks do have the potential to encourage sustainability at the household level, the paper identifies current constraints and offers some suggestions on mitigating them.

Structural and functional separation: the experience in Europe so far

Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Functional separation is one of the hottest topics on the regulatory agenda, and is likely to continue to be so for some time, given the prospects of re-monopolisation associated with the increased economies of scope and scale of next generation networks, and given the significant investment levels required to provide broadband access to all users. This article provides a scan of European experience since the UK embarked on the creation of Openreach two years ago. In this paper our main emphasis is with the development of the concepts and the practice of structural and operational separation to achieve pro-competitive regulatory objectives. We are not especially concerned with structural separation as a result of initiatives to realise increased shareholder value and, for that reason, we have provided only a short commentary on the situation with eircom, the Irish incumbent operator. Our conclusion should be no surprise structural and functional separation models are still a work in progress in Europe and the European Commission still has some way to go to fully lay out and codify the approach that it may consider appropriate for the Member States. At present, the initiative is with individual countries, and this in itself raises issues for future harmonisation. Copyright 2008 Stefano Nicoletti and Jim Holmes.

Online Information Communication Technologies (ICTs) make accessing information any time, any place and using any device a reality for more than a quarter of the worlds population. The Internet can improve communication and increase the independence of people who have disabilities and those who are geographically or socially isolated. Despite this potential, Web 2.0 applications and 3D virtual worlds remain largely inaccessible to many people with disabilities. This paper describes the design and development of an open source accessible 3D virtual world environment and Web 2.0 solution incorporating features that address the identified accessibility limitations of currently available technologies.

description: The debates in Australia about national policy and operational complexities of the Rudd government's bold National Broadband Network (NBN) plan have recently shifted focus towards issues about end users. Many questions arise, such as what services might be offered, by whom and who is likely to have access to the new broadband services at what cost. A continuing examination of different case studies of international broadband experiences to see what best practices might be applied to Australian circumstances could be valuable. This paper offers a case study of one of the most successful broadband companies in Europe: Free in France. Three major factors seem to be behind the success of Free: its remarkable founder and financier, Xavier Niel, its contribution to the implementation of constructive changes to the telecommunications regulatory regime since 2001, and the creation and development of widely accepted consumer services. So might any of its experiences be transferable to Australia's NBN challenges during the next five years? Copyright 2009 Trevor Barr.

description: Australia needs a fundamental re-think of its USO policy in view of the 10 years of experience with competition policy in telecommunications and the need to ensure equity for consumers in national broadband policy. The changes proposed here would provided benefits for consumers, supplies and government. A new USO policy could be financed from the annual interest accrued by the Future Fund, currently estimated to be of the order of $3.8 billion. Such interest returns would be transferred to fund two major components of a new USO policy continuation of the existing obligations related to voice and pay phones, as well as the provision of capital towards new infrastructure commitments for new high speed broadband services. Australia simply cannot afford NOT to have an imaginative national high speed broadband policy including workable policies to ensure access and affordability for all Australians.

description: We used a sensitive and accurate method based on isotope dilution high-performance liquid chromatography–triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (ID-LC-MS/MS) to determine the levels of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2-deoxyguanosine (8-oxo-dGsn) and 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanosin (8-oxo-Gsn) in various tissue specimens, plasma, and urine of hyperglycemic Sprague Dawley rats induced by streptozotocin (STZ). The oxidative DNA and RNA damages were observed in various organs and the amounts of 8-oxo-dGsn and 8-oxo-Gsn derived from DNA and RNA were increased with hyperglycemic status. In contrast to the results of the nucleic acid samples derived from tissues, the levels of 8-oxo-Gsn in urine and plasma were significantly higher compared with that of 8-oxo-dGsn, which most likely reflected the RNA damage that occurs more frequently compared with DNA damage. For the oxidative stress induced by hyperglycemia, 8-oxo-Gsn in urine may be a sensitive biomarker on the basis of the results in urine, plasma, and tissues. In addition, high levels of urinary 8-oxo-Gsn were observed before diabetic microvascular complications. Based on that the 8-oxo-dGsn was associated with diabetic nephropathy and RNA was more vulnerable to oxidative stress compared with DNA. We also propose that 8-oxo-Gsn is correlated with diabetic nephropathy and that 8-oxo-Gsn in urine could be a useful and sensitive marker of diabetic nephropathy.

description: Peer-to-peer Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) offers a no or low cost alternative to Australian fixed-line telephony with added advantages for its users such as video calls and increased social presence. Most current users of VoIP use a peer-to-peer based system such as Skype because it is ISP independent, offers voice and video calls, and is easy to use and install. More sophisticated services are possible if users moved from a peer-to-peer model to a voice over broadband service (VoBB). This paper draws on a series of interviews with Australian families and their experiences with Skype. It hypothesises on future services for families if they can be encouraged to move from a peer-to-peer model to voice over broadband connections. Copyright 2009 Scott Rickard.

Talking 'costs': seniors, cell phones and the personal and political economy of telecommunications in Canada

description: Seniors, defined as persons aged 65 and up, are becoming a much larger demographic in Canada at the same time as the wireless telecommunications industry is expanding. Yet in terms of academic research, few studies have examined how seniors understand and negotiate the influx of digital communications devices, such as the cellular telephone, into their world. Using industry and government data, as well as individual and group interviews and observations with over 120 Canadian seniors, this paper examines the repertoire of cost in the group discussions held with this cohort. It does so from the perspective of a feminist political economy that takes into account individual experiences in the context of macro-level, structural analyses of institutions and industry. This preliminary study suggests that financial considerations play a significant role in seniors cell phone practices and may lead to a strategic decision to impose restrictions on their use. These restrictions to access often run counter to the desire, amongst many seniors, to have access to a cell phone for emergency purposes. The comments made by this cohort make apparent the way that personal economies within a household on restricted or fixed incomes intersect with the practices of the wireless industry and suggest future avenues for media and ageing studies.

description: Global focus on reaching emission reduction targets has shed light on the significance of household contributions to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. At the consumer level, going green has become a popular trend aimed at curbing environmental impact and living in more sustainable ways. This paper explores the ways in which individuals are addressing these realities and adopting new lifestyle choices through broadband-enabled social networking initiatives. Presenting a case study of current practices to support sustainability using broadband networks, this paper demonstrates that an understanding of motivations, barriers to participation, and other factors determine the success of environmental campaigns.

description: Employment protects Indigenous Australians from poor mental health. Data from the ABS 2014–15 National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Social Survey (NATSISS) show that Indigenous Australians who are employed are about half as likely to have high or very high levels of mental health distress compared to those unemployed or those outside the labour force (21% as opposed to 41% or 40% respectively). However, some types of employment may be associated with a higher prevalence of poor mental health, for example being in casual employment.

This paper provides an overview of policies and programs that address Indigenous employment and mental health and examines the evidence on labour force programs that can improve Indigenous mental health.

The European debate about structural separation: possible implications for Australia
Creators: name: Morgan, Kevin
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: In the lead up to the review of telecommunications regulation in mid 2006, the European Unions Commissioner for Information Society and Media, Ms Viviane Reding, reignited the debate about the use of structural separation as a remedy for anti-competitive behaviour by incumbents.Despite the Commissioners initial enthusiasm for structural separation, following a detailed inquiry the Commission bowed to the weight of industry opinion and opted for the lesser remedy of functional separation in its subsequent October 2007 policy statement. The decision did not recommend that functional separation be mandatory, but that it should be implemented by national regulators at their discretion. Notwithstanding the rejection of structural separation by one of the industrys most influential policy/regulatory bodies, it remains on the Australian agenda and is at the core of the debate about competition and the planned national fibre to the node network (FTTN). If any group other than Telstra wins the present tender for FTTN, structural separation will be needed to roll out the network within the governments $4.7 billion budget. Should Telstra win the tender and accept the subsidy offered it may have to engage in structural separation to accommodate the public private partnership (PPP) for the network which is the governments favoured vehicle to deliver the new network. The article considers the recent debate about structural separation in Europe and considers its utility to the planned deployment of a national fibre to the node network. Copyright 2008 Kevin Morgan.

description: Changes in communications technology and markets have placed great strains on traditional approaches to spectrum regulation, which have had difficulty coping with the current rate of change in radiocommunications. New technologies including mobile telephony and wireless broadband posed challenges for governments who needed faster and more objective means of allocating spectrum to competing commercial interests. Spectrum regulators have turned increasingly to market-based and more flexible approaches to regulation, including auctions, pricing and trading. Challenges for the future include improving technology neutrality, improving the efficiency of use of government spectrum, and deciding how much spectrum to set aside for the spectrum commons.The views expressed in this article are the authors own and do not represent the views of ACMA.

The role of telecommunications in facilitating community engagement, social capital and social inclusion

Subjects: Uncategorized

description: This paper examines the role of telecommunications in sustainable social and economic development of urban, rural and remote communities in the Northern Territory of Australia through the theoretical lens of social capital. Whilst the essence of social capital is quality social relations, the concept intersects with telecommunications and Information Communications Technology (ICT) in a number of ways. The potential of ICT to disseminate information quickly, to reach vast numbers of people simultaneously and to include the previously excluded is immense. Meaningful access to ICT is however, embedded in a complex array of factors encompassing physical, digital, human and social resources and relationships. Consequently, this paper examines the nexus between social relations of mutual benefit, telecommunications access and social inclusion amongst diverse communities. Four communities, which included two urban, a rural and a remote Indigenous community in the Northern Territory of Australia are the focus of this research paper. Copyright 2009 Susan Bandias.

description: Background: Oseltamivir has been widely used to treat patients with influenza; however, its effects have been debated. Recently, a new meta-analysis on the controversial topic of oseltamivir’s effectiveness found that the drug reduces the duration of influenza symptoms and the risk of hospitalization, while increasing the risk of nausea and vomiting. Unfortunately, the analysis did not include articles published in Chinese. Thus, we performed an updated meta-analysis by adding more studies in China. Methods: The terms ‘oseltamivir,’ ‘influenza,’ and ‘effect’ were used to search for publications in both English and Chinese. Only controlled clinical trials were included. We used the weighted mean difference (WMD) or relative risk (RR), together with the 95% confidence interval (95% CI), to estimate the effects of oseltamivir. Results: A total of 12 studies including 107 712 patients were eligible for analysis. Oseltamivir significantly reduced the duration of fever (WMD, –20.48; 95% CI, –28.43, –12.53) and influenza-like symptoms (WMD, –19.39; 95% CI, –32.94, –5.84). The rates of hospitalization (RR, 0.79; 95% CI, 0.68, 0.90), antibiotics usage (RR, 0.56; 95% CI, 0.42, 0.74), otitis media (RR, 0.78; 95% CI, 0.65, 0.93), and nonspecific complications (RR, 0.58; 95% CI, 0.35, 0.95) were significantly decreased among patients taking oseltamivir. No significant difference was observed with respect to the risk of adverse reactions. Conclusion: Oseltamivir can effectively alleviate the symptoms of influenza and reduce hospitalization, antibiotic usage, and the risk of otitis media without significantly increasing the rate of adverse drug reactions.

description: The Internet is an open platform that embraces users' freedom and innovation without permission. In this article, I explain how the design of the Internet led to its remarkable economic and social success. In so doing, I will suggest that sustaining the Internet's fundamental openness be considered a fundamental objective of broadband policy. Copyright 2009 Vint Cerf.

NBN and IPTV: Rich potential
Creators: name: Weinstein, Jeremy
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: This paper sets out to clarify the confusion surrounding what Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) is by classifying three types of IPTV Computer Based IPTV, Partial IPTV and Full IPTV. By analysing the benefits and pitfalls of each classification a picture emerges surrounding the rich potential to develop additional services for Full IPTV when delivered over a fibre-to-the-premises (FTTP) network. Australia's commitment to invest in a FTTP National Broadband Network (NBN) offers the prospect of Australia becoming leading innovator in this field. Copyright 2010 Jeremy Weinstein.

Network neutrality in the Great White North (and its impact on Canadian culture)
Creators: name: De Beer, Jeremy
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: This article contributes to the growing body of network neutrality literature by describing and commenting on recent developments in Canada. There have been and still are ongoing industry practices, regulatory policy proceedings, judicial decisions and pending litigation, and legislative proposals relevant to the issue of network neutrality in Canada. While most of the network neutrality literature has an economic focus, this paper dwells more on implications for Canadian culture. Though the dominant technological and economic discourses about issues like innovation and competition cannot be ignored, these are not the only paradigms with which to frame regulatory and other decision-making. Ultimately, this paper recommends a light-handed cultural policy response one that clearly imposes neutrality obligations but does so in a principled rather than prescriptive manner.

Wireless Politics II: wire vs wireless - interdependence, symbiosis and competition, 2010
Creators: name: Given, Jock
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Broadband was one of the few issues that deeply divided the major parties in the August 2010 federal election. Labor and the Coalition disagreed about how big the problem was, what was needed to fix it, and how much should be spent. Strikingly, their positions cleaved down an old fault-line. Labor planned much more wire; the Coalition emphasised a bigger role for wireless. This article examines the background to this conflict and the arguments presented in support of the Labor Governments heavy investment in fixed line infrastructure. It then indulges in a thought experiment to argue the opposite case that mobile access networks will dominate in the future so as to undermine the rationale for subsidising (not for building without subsidy if commercial investors choose to do so) some or all of the FTTP NBN. It concludes that a Government planning the biggest intervention in Australian infrastructure history might find itself with rather more competition from wireless access networks and rather less interdependence and symbiosis between wire and wireless than it hopes.

Young people, their technology and the fear in schools
Creators: name: Warner, David
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: This paper is a conversation piece about the failure of schooling to embrace the technology that 21st century young people use as part of their lives. It directs attention to the fears that schools and probably many adults have of young people and their technology. It argues that it is not technology that is the issue but the 20th century attitudes of schools, schooling systems and governments. It is this attitude that actually controls schools, their young people and the amount of and manner in which technology is used. It briefly explores young people and their technologies and looks ahead to emerging technologies, but again all within the context that it is not as much about technology as the culture of schools. Technology, through the Internet, enabled the global knowledge economy but schools have not really embraced either. The paper concludes with the possibility that young people empowered by their technology may well rebel against the irrelevance of their schooling and its controlling culture, particularly technology.

description: Australias electricity supply infrastructure requires investments exceeding $100b over the next 25 years to maintain quality of service to domestic users. Being careful to distinguish energy service needs from electricity delivery, the case is made for distributed energy services which offer improved sustainability outcomes to the traditional monolithic generation model. A key enabling technology for commercial success of the proposed paradigm is a broadband communication infrastructure. Broadband is essential in meeting the cost reduction and performance targets that would allow a distributed energy service model to succeed. Using broadband, a large number of novel business opportunities arise. A case study on solar water heaters is presented showing that a broadband enabled smart controller can realise 20% greenhouse gas savings for a conventional solar water heater and 75% savings for an electrical water heater.
