Real-time multimedia and communication in packet networks JAIN SLEE and Mobicents

Our Background  Rhodes VOIP Platform: Asterisk IP PBX SIP Express Router Web front end Apache Flash C and PHP scripts Java Proxy

Analysing the System Service Creation Dial plan (apache like configuration)‏ AGI (programming scripts) i.e. bash, Java, C SER configuration (combo of prog lang and UNIX config file format)‏ Asterisk Application API (C only)‏ Tight coupling of services and control layer

Next Generation Networks Definition: “ A Next Generation Networks (NGN) is a packet- based network able to provide Telecommunication Services to users and able to make use of multiple broadband, QoS-enabled transport technologies and in which service-related functions are independent of the underlying transport-related technologies. It enables unfettered access for users to networks and to competing service providers and services of their choice. It supports generalised mobility which will allow consistent and ubiquitous provision of services to users”. [ITU-T Recommendation Y.2001 (12/2004) - General overview of NGN]
