Development of Asterisk OpenStandards Software

Developed in 1999, the OpenSource software is the creation of Mark Spencer. Operated with Linux, the software consists of four core modules.

Voice channels and various applications are managed by the Schedule and I/O Manager. Phone ringing or call forwarding functions are controlled using the Application Manager Module.
