| IMS Converged Services Gateway |
A whitepaper contribution from Ulticom
The 3GPP IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) is rapidly becoming the defacto standard for real-time multimedia communication services. Although the IMS was originally specified for 3G generation mobile networks, it also provides an excellent service deployment architecture for any fixed or wireless network, and all IP based wireless networks such as WiFi, corporate Enterprise LAN's, and the public Internet. IMS standards define open interfaces for session management, access control, mobility management, service control and billing. This allows the network provider to offer a managed SIP network, with all of the carrier-grade attributes of the circuit-switched network, but at a lower cost and with increased flexibility. In addition, the use of SIP as a common signaling protocol allows independent software vendors to leverage a broad range of third party application servers, media servers, and SIP-enabled end user devices to create next generation services.

The third in a series of mini tutorials presented by... SIPKnowledge, Inc.
Motivation:
It is 10pm. Joe is just about to join a four hour conference call. That means he will not be able to accept incoming calls. His girlfriend Lena is traveling in far away Europe. He knows she is about to call any moment from a pay phone using her calling card. He wants to let her know about the reason why he may miss her call. He knows that once her call comes in she will get redirected to his voice mail. If he could only have a special greeting playing for her letting her know the reason for his unavailability. At the same time his normal voice mail greeting should be playing for all other incoming calls.

| The new Nortel Multimedia Office Client |
At Supercomm 2005, Nortel announced a major breakthrough in enterprise communications with the introduction of a new multimedia communications plug-in for the world's leading corporate e-mail application, Microsoft Office Outlook 2003.
Nortel's new Multimedia Office Client is a stand-alone solution that leverages the 'Office Anywhere' capabilities of Nortel's Session Initiation Protocol (SIP)-based Multimedia Communication Server 5100 and 5200 to provide business users anywhere, anytime access to a full range of multimedia business communications. By integrating real-time multimedia communications within Outlook, and enabling these services to be used with existing business voice systems, the Nortel Multimedia Office Client can greatly simplify and enrich the business communications experience.
The Multimedia Office Client will reside within Outlook 2003 as a toolbar that enables users to manage and personalize voice, video and text communications, and to initiate calls from a desktop phone or headset simply by clicking on a contact name - all from within Outlook 2003. This plug-in, which can be deployed as an enterprise owned or service provider hosted service, goes beyond voice or text to provide a rich multimedia communications experience. The integrated video and collaboration services can use existing Centrex or enterprise voice systems for audio, complementing business voice services currently in use.
