The IMS : IP Multimedia Concepts and Services in the Mobile Domain
by Miikka Poikselka, Aki Niemi, Hisham Khartabil, Georg Mayer
We have telephony to talk to each other, messaging to dispatch mail or instant messages, browsing to read published content and search engines to locate content sites. However, current mobile networks do not provide the possibility for one application rich terminal to communicate with another in a peer-to-peer session beyond voice calls. Mobile telephony with the current technology has been hugely successful and shows that there is immense value in communicating with peers while being mobile, and with increasingly available smarter multimedia terminals the communication experience will be something more than just exchanging voice. Those multimedia terminals need IP multimedia networks. Hence, the Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) has developed a standard for SIP based IP multimedia service machinery known as 'The IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem)' and this informative book explains everything you need to know about it...
