(a) (b) (c) Before the proliferation of mobile applications development, an application (or service) surprisingly got so popular back in the late '90s that it is still bringing in lots of revenue for telecom operators. What application (or service) is this? The application (or service) given in Q1(a) went on to generate a huge amount of traffic in the telecom operators' network. This caught the telecom operators by surprise because the signaling network that was used to carry the traffic was not planned for such heavy traffic load. Can you provide TWO (2) reasons why the telecom operators did not expect there was such an uptake in the application (or service)? What are the key technologies/ enablers do you think helped in the transition to the smartphone era we are in now? Please list down THREE (3) key technologies/ enablers.
