The present information age is enabled by telecommunications and
information technology and the continued convergence of their services,
technologies and business models. Within telecommunications, the
historic separations between fixed networks, mobile telephone networks
and data communications are diminishing. Similarly, information
technology and enterprise communications show convergence with
telecommunications. These synergies are captured in the concept of Next
Generation Networks that result from evolution to new technologies,
enabling new services and applications. Network Convergence creates a
framework to aid the understanding of Next Generation Networks, their
potential for supporting new and enhanced applications and their
relationships with legacy networks. The book identifies and explains the
concepts and principles underlying standards for networks, services and
applications. Network Convergence:
- Gives comprehensive coverage of packet multimedia, enterprise
networks, third generation mobile communications, OSA/Parlay and
developments in fixed networks.
- Gives an integrated view of diverse information and communications
systems and technology through a common NGN Framework.
- Delves into protocols, APIs and software processes for supporting
services and applications in advanced networks.
- Discusses a variety of applications of telecommunications supporting
IT and IT enhanced by communications.
- Follows developments in operations support systems standards and
links these to next generation networks.
- Includes a wealth of examples, use cases, tables and illustrations
that help reinforce the material for students and practitioners.
- Features an accompanying website with PowerPoint presentations,
glossary, web references, tutorial problems, and 'learn more' pages.
This essential reference guide will prove invaluable to advanced
undergraduate and graduate students, academics and researchers. It will
also be of interest to professionals working for telecommunications
network operators, equipment vendors, telecoms regulators, and engineers
who wish to further their knowledge of next generation networks.
