Course Description

To surprise and satisfy customers’ expectation,
the course will
allow you to plan for the next age of telecommunication services
that will be characterized by several features, all of which have to
be well supported due to the numerous imposed requirements
and increased competition in t
he information ne
tworking arena
.

The course will cover the following domains:



NGNs and the Role of IMS



IMS Basic Prot
ocols: IETF SIP and Diameter



IMS Standards



IMS Application Server options



IMS Appl
ications and Service Enablers



IMS Summary and Open Issues

Course
Objectives

The aim of this course is to focus on the IP Multimedia Subsystem
(IMS) as overly network in an NGN infrastructure, then to provide
an overview on the related service delivery platforms which
enable reuse of “Service Enablers” and

make service p
rovisioning
cheaper and faster. This will lead to reduce CAPEX and OPEX of
the network infrastructure. The course will include identification
of the new exposed business models and the developing process
for proceeding forward from near term convergence.

Target Audience

Telecom Operators, Regulators, and Service Providers.

Prerequisites

Telecom Background.
