Résumé

Today's communications infrastructure serves a demanding public. Networks must accommodate voice and data, text and multimedia, intelligence and responsiveness. They must provide quality of service, flexibility as well as security, and connect seamlessly to mobile and fixed devices.

Service Provision. Technologies for Next Generation Communication takes in the broad sweep of developments in communications services. The breadth of the field and the pace of technological change make it difficult to keep abreast of developments outside one's own area of expertise. This books helps by bringing together the combined expertise of the contributors on a wide range of topics, including:

call processing
service capability APIs
multimedia standards
messaging
Internet telephony
3G wireless networks

Structured in 3 parts, Service Provision. Technologies for Next Generation Communications :

Provides a comprehensive reference to the state-of-the-art in communications services
Describes all aspects of the technologies required to provide customers with the multiplicity of communication options they demand
Covers network support for services, building and analysing services, and projections of how services will evolve
Includes examples and case studies as well as standards information

This pragmatic approach will be ideal for communications engineers, strategists, consultants, managers, educators and students. The book is suitable for self-study or as part of a graduate course on communications.
