MEA Phone 7 Challange thumb Microsoft & HEC partner to Host the Imagine Cup 2012 Pakistan finalsBringing together the sharpest minds in the field of technology, Microsoft Pakistan, in partnership with the Higher Education Commission (HEC), hosted the local finals of the Imagine Cup.

This is the world's premier student technology competition, where all eligible students use their imagination and passion to create a technological solution. Marking its tenth year, Microsoft is holding the Worldwide Finals of the Imagine Cup in Sydney, Australia early July.

The local leg of this nail-biting competition was held at the Islamic University, Faisal Mosque Campus, Islamabad, where Team CELOKS proved to be the lucky winner, chosen to represent Pakistan in the Worldwide Finals in Sydney. Their project SEED was about donating left over food to the needy through Windows Phone Application.

Regional finals for the Imagine Cup were held in the HEC regional centers in Karachi, Islamabad and Lahore, with 46 teams getting a chance to showcase their completed projects to a diversified panel of judges from the academic and professional sector. The projects were discussed, students questioned, ranked and ultimately a total of 12 teams were selected for the final.

The Executive Director, HEC, Dr. Sohail Naqvi emphasized, "For Microsoft and HEC, this is another opportunity for us to highlight our commitment to supporting student talent in technology development to create advanced IT skills across the region." Microsoft has a long-term commitment to support Pakistan in developing IT education through the provision and promotion of most modern technologies and methodologies.

In addition to the Imagine Cup, the MEA (Middle East & Africa) Windows Phone 7 Challenge sponsored by Dell Corporation was also held on the same day in Pakistan for the first time. Three teams participated, two from Pakistan and one from Egypt, where entries were received to develop Windows Phone 7 compatible applications. It is a moment of great pride that out of 79 countries, students from Pakistan have bagged the first spot.

The proud winner from Pakistan was Team ICES who showcased their application called Intelligent Computing Engine designed to solve complex mathematical, engineering and industrial computations.

Through supporting such initiatives and by furthering student competitions in the country, the HEC played a vital role in making the local final of the Imagine Cup competition a success. Speaking at the occasion, Kamal Ahmed, Country Manager Microsoft Pakistan said, "Microsoft hosts this competition each year in different countries, the idea being that today's advancement in technology along with the imagination, passion and creativity that students have, can light up a better future for the generations to come." The campaign kicked off in October 2011, where students from the public and private sector universities participated very enthusiastically: a total of 11000+ registrations were seen during the first three months.

PTA Takes Step for Whitelisting of IP addresses for VoIP Usage

Posted: 26 Apr 2012 08:40 PM PDT


PTA logo thumb PTA Takes Step for Whitelisting of IP addresses for VoIP UsagePakistan Telecommunication Authority (PTA) has notified the Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for making difference of blacklist and whitelist IP addresses used by various service providers.

The directives issued by the authority recently stated that white list would be the list of IP addresses maintained of service providers for the purpose of allowing them for using VoIP services.

The list will be maintained by the Vigilance Directorate of PTA and will contain the IPs reported by PTA licensed operators authorized by the government of Pakistan.

As per current rules, regulations, government policies and the VoIP clarification issued by PTA, any IP address would be included in the white list which fulfills different criteria and terms of engagements under regulations and formats.

PTA instructed that Cellular Mobile Operators which are assigned to APNs for GPRS/EDGE that these IP's would be used exclusively for the purpose these will be whitelisted.

The detection of any commercial VoIP service on these IP's will render them a candidate for permanent blocking in-addition to action against the concerned CVAS licensee/CMO, PTA warned.

The IP addresses will be preferred for while-list for exclusive use of HEC recognized educational institutions for their academic activities. In such cases the LDI/LL operators will also provide the other details like usage threshold values based on hours for which the IP will be active daily and maximum number of VoIP sessions which it will make in an hour along with any predefined cellular / local loop numbers involved in the VoIP sessions.

The maximum usage threshold will be limited to 8 hours per day with a maximum of 10 sessions, per hour. Besides, the maximum monthly hours should not exceed 90 hours.

The IP addresses are allowed for providing international Video Conference facility through by LDIs/LL/CVARS operators to their non-licensed customers. However, switching within Pakistan is only allowed through LL / LDI as per their license conditions.

The service providers including Long Distance and International (LDI) and Landline (LL) operators referred to the authority as competent on the prescribed format for its telephony traffic.

The IP address may be included on the recommendation of LDI and LL operator belonging to its non-licensed customers like International Call Centers for their International Voice Communication.

The LDI/LL will report the IPs on the prescribed format along with valid registration with Pakistan Software Export Board (PSEB) and any other information required by the Vigilance Directorate.

IP addresses reported by ISPs and CVAS (data) operators allocated to their network elements e.g. gateways, etc. whose automatic blocking may cause problems for data customers will be included in whitelist as well.

IP Addresses reported by Transworld Associates (TWA) for provisioning of bandwidth to Call Centers for their Call Center operations subject to approval of Authority on case to case basis.
