Telstra has revealed the addition of almost one million new mobile services in the six months to December 2011, but Sensis revenues plummeted 24 percent in 12 months.
Australia’s Information and Communications Technology (ICT) Research Centre of Excellence, NICTA, has appointed two new members to the board of the organisation.
NICTA chairman, Neville Stevens, announced the
appointment to the board of Professor Barney Glover and George
Campbell, following the retirement of three members, Professor Paul
Greenfield, Dr Michael Sargent and Professor David Karpin.
Neville Stevens said Professor Greenfield was one of the longest
serving members of NICTA’s Board, after his appointment in November
2002. Dr Sargent chaired NICTA’s governance and remuneration committee
during his tenure and Professor David Karpin served on NICTA’s audit
and finance, and commercialisation committees.
New board member Professor Glover took up the position of
vice-chancellor for Charles Darwin University in February this year,
having previously been deputy vice-chancellor at the University of
Newcastle and having held positions at Curtin University of Technology
and the University of Ballarat. He was also involved in the
establishment of the WA Telecommunications Research Institute and the
Institute for Multisensor Processing and Content Analysis.
George Campbell served as a senator for New South Wales from 1997-2008,
and was a member of the Economic Planning and Advisory Council from
1991-1994 and the Telecommunications Industry Development Board from
1991-1996. He was also parliamentary secretary to the Shadow Minister
for Innovation, Industry, Trade and Tourism and to the Shadow Minister
for Industry, Innovation, Science and Research. Prior to entering
parliament, Campbell held various trade union positions between 1970
and 1997.
