The workshop will examine the status of the relevant IMS and associated standards (i.e., 3GPP SAE, 3GPP2 CAN, etc.) and the likely directions of such standards. IPTV and other video services over an IP infrastructure are of very high interest globally, and thus these services will be examined in more detail. Cisco will share with attendees its experiences, knowledge gained, and how service providers have been able to deploy large scale video services on an IP infrastructure. The workshop will also explore the impact of Web2.0 and new service provider business models.
