Telecommunications
The term telecommunications refers to the process by which signals are transmitted over a distance for the purpose of sending and receiving messages. From the mid 20th century to today telecommunications is the sending and receiving of electromagnetic and electronic waves that are interpreted and presented by transmitters and receivers. The basic components of a telecommunications system include the transmitter that acts as the signal interpreter that coverts signals into information that is interpretable by the receiver (Huynh 2001). The second component of a telecommunications system is the transmission medium which is the messages are sent and received on. This area of telecommunications systems has seen the most exponential growth and creativity in terms of growth with wireless and WiFI being the most rapidly growing transmission medium in use today (Huynh 2001). The third component of a telecommunications system is the receiver, which converts both initiated and responded-to messages in an interpretable format that can be quickly viewed, understood and acted upon by the initiator. The development and fine-tuning of analogue and digital approaches to coding, transmitting and interpreting data continues to advance in response to the increased needs of Internet-based and local-area network-based communications architectures. In addition there continues to be a rapid definition of communications standards for ensuring the highest level of compatibility on each communications medium and platform. The adoption of the Open Systems Interconnect Model (OSI) is a case in point, as is the continued development of WiFI standards throughout the wireless community ((Huynh 2001). Data communications' adoption rates regarding the Internet's wireless and metropolitan Wide-Area Networks including WiFI technologies have a growth rate that dwarfs even the adoption of television in the last century. Data communications' continued growth is going to continually lead to new industry advances and standards.

According to Reidenberg (2000: 1318), policy in the United States protects personal information according to a market-dominated paradigm, where limited statutory and common law rights are granted for information privacy. In Europe, on the other hand, the privacy protection norm is dominated by privacy rights. The European Union, for example, requires Member States to include comprehensive statutory protections for its citizens when it comes to privacy rights. The fact that
Telecommunication Privatization in Nigeria The Challenges of Telecommunication Privatization in Nigeria In the 1990s, many multinational nongovernment agencies (such as: the IMF) encouraged the privatization of state owned entities in favor of privatization. The basic idea was to encourage these organizations to become more efficient, attract large amounts of working capital and to be more responsive to the needs of stakeholders. In Nigeria, this was touted as a solution for effectively dealing
This allows access to the WAN resources over the Internet. It entails secure access to HHSC resources applying encryption. This enhances the security by regulating the protocols that the workstations can access. It has regulatory access to the applications to which the employee is not authorized. (DIR Wide Area Network (WAN) Operations) Each of the TCP/IP network requires a unique IP address. An IP address is a 32-bit number

Long-Term Evolution (LTE) A Summary of LTE Long-term evolution (LTE) is an emerging technology. It is a standard in wireless communication, and relates to the effective and efficient transfer of high-speed data for both data terminals and mobile phones (Sesia, Toufik, & Baker, 2011). Based on GSM/EDGE as well as UMTS/HSPA
Leveraged buyout refers to the acquisition strategy whereby the target companies is acquired with the help of borrowed money usually bonds or loans. The acquiring company usually borrows money to buy another company and thus minimum equity is involved. Usually LBOs work on the principle of 90/10 debt-equity ratios where 10% money comes from the acquiring company while ninety percent is borrowed funds. Li JIN and Fiona WANG (2001) write:
The user, of course, sees a virtual service (appearing like the data is stored in certain icon), the actual storage could be anywhere, and could vary from day-to-day. This is an advantage to the overall efficiency of the system because storage resources can then be allocated rather than static (Smith, Computing Beyond the Firewall, 2010). Cloud services are any web-based application -- from calendars and contact applications to word processing,
