Also available as eBook on:
Service-oriented architecture (SOA) uses services as the baseline for developing new architectures and applications, as networks are built specifically to satisfy service requirements. Most services are currently handled over different networks, but newer services will soon require cross-network support. Architecting the Telecommunication Evolution: Toward Converged Network Services outlines the... Read more

Biography
Vijay K. Gurbani, Xian-He Sun
"Evolving from the current PSTN to Internet Telephony is not an easy task. … The two authors [of this book] are uniquely qualified to explain how this evolution can be architected. … Both authors have used their unique expertise to produce this very first book on the topic."
-From the Foreword by Roch Glitho, Ph.D., Editor-in-Chief, IEEE Communications Magazine, 2003-2005
