A short history of the bell system
The Bell System traced its roots back to Alexander Graham Bell’s invention of the telephone in 1876,
and survived for nearly 110 years.

THE AFTERMATH OF THE MFJ
In United States telecommunication law, Modification of Final Judgment (MFJ) is the August
1982 agreement approved by the court settling United States v. AT&T, a landmark antitrust suit

TELECOMMUNICATIONS STANDARDS
IBM produced its Systems Network Architecture (SNA) with its own resources while the International Standards Organization (ISO) later developed its Open Systems Interconnect (OSI) architecture that is similar, but not identical. AT&T, eager to replace signaling systems that were vulnerable to toll fraud, developed its common channel interoffice signaling (CCIS) and applied it several years ahead of the ITU standard,which subsequently evolved into Signaling System 7 (SS7).

HOW STANDARDS ARE DEVELOPED
The field of players in the standards process is vast, and sometimes not closely coordinated. Standards progress from conception to adoption in four key stages:
1. Conceptualization2. Development3. Influence4. Promulgation
