Australia is the first country to launch digital TV nationally. Increasingly, this platform will be used for consuming multimedia information; also the HDTV infrastructure is being applied to other domains such as telemedicine/e-Health to lower costs and improve effectiveness. For Australia to be a step ahead in the development of these applications that are beneficial to a wider community, we have to look forward and establish adequate infrastructure for the development of needed applications of the future. It is strongly believed that by doing so we can position ourselves ahead of other communities in anticipating and providing essential services to our modern society and this in turn will greatly benefit the Australian economy.Read moreRead less
