Significance of the Study

 Eliminate the distribution of

unreliable information
 Increase the rate of speed in
releasing public information
 Boost Thomasian awareness
 Promote interaction between the
Thomasians and the University per
se
Process of Centralizing the
communication system

 1975 – trial system launched by Bell Telephone

Laboratories
 1978 – cellular telephone system began
 In succeeding years, cellular phones,
computers, and Bluetooth were invented.

 Operation:
1. Place sim card into the mobile phone.
2. Connect modem to the PC.
3. Use AT commands to instruct the
modem
4. Use a terminal program to send the
AT commands (Window’s
HyperTerminal)

Messaging
 Broadcasting
 message is stored

 more discrete

 less time-
consuming
 spam free
