Established in 1971 by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), NASDAQ is an automated quotation system that reports on : TKLC), a leading developer of high-performance network applications for next-generation fixed, mobile and packet networks, will highlight new products and solutions during CTIA WIRELESS 2007 that enable operators to optimize and manage their core networks for delivering the latest, next-generation applications and features. The company will highlight several new enhancements to the EAGLE 5[R] Integrated Signaling System (ISS ISS See Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS). ) to support number portability and International Telecommunication Union International Telecommunication Union (ITU), specialized agency of the United Nations, with headquarters at Geneva. It was created in 1934 as a result of the merging of the International Telegraph Union (est. (ITU)-based variants, load-sharing capabilities, signaling support for 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) next-generation networks (NGNs), increased asynchronous transfer mode See ATM. (communications) Asynchronous Transfer Mode - (ATM, or "fast packet") A method for the dynamic allocation of bandwidth using a fixed-size packet (called a cell). See also ATM Forum, Wideband ATM. ATM acronyms. Indiana acronyms. (ATM) high-speed link (HSL) capacity and new hardware - providing even higher performance. Tekelec also will highlight performance and revenue management solutions enabled by its Integrated Application Solutions (IAS) suite of applications consisting of real-time data collection, correlation and processing. The suite gives wireless operators the tools they need to generate critical business intelligence for presence, billing and security management as they deploy advanced services such as multimedia messaging and mobile TV. "As consumer demand for advanced wireless and multimedia services increases, so does the complexity of managing the core network infrastructure that enables operators to deliver, manage and secure revenues from these services," said Frank Plastina, Tekelec president and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. . "Tekelec provides a full suite of integrated solutions that optimize networks for deploying next-generation services while also lowering operating costs." Tekelec Demos at CTIA in Booth #2189 * TekMedia Short Message Service (SMS) - modular architecture enables delivery of advanced messaging without costly network over-engineering or overhaul. Carriers can grow capacity and capabilities incrementally or create a complete, end-to-end SMS solution. * Multimedia Instant Messaging (MM-IM) - session initiation protocol (protocol) Session Initiation Protocol - (SIP) A very simple text-based application-layer control protocol. It creates, modifies, and terminates sessions with one or more participants. Such sessions include Internet telephony and multimedia conferences. It is described in RFC 2543. (SIP)-based, IMS-compliant total messaging solution provides 2G-3G interworking (standard) interworking - Systems or components, possibly from different origins, working together to perform some task. Interworking depends crucially on standards to define the interfaces between the components. , advanced messaging services and much more. * Tekelec Integrated Applications Solution (IAS) - provides both performance and revenue management applications for legacy and next-generation networks in one platform. This enables operators to invest one time for complete network coverage and enables them to manage their transition from existing network to IMS (1) See IP Multimedia Subsystem. (2) (Information Management System) An early IBM hierarchical DBMS for IBM mainframes. IMS was widely implemented throughout the 1970s under MVS and continues to be used under z/OS. . * TekCore Session Manager - supports 3GPP-defined IMS session control functionality to handle SIP signaling and session management within the IMS core. TekCore maintains compliance with 3GPP IMS call session control function (CSCF) specifications, while offering adaptations for interworking with non-3GPP compliant IP environments, such as the NGN (Next Generation Networks) An umbrella term for mixed voice and data networks running over the IP protocol. See IP Multimedia Subsystem. . IMS compatibility provides seamless interworking and facilitates the evolution to an IMS architecture in the future. * Tekelec 6000 IMS Application Server - Tekelec is demonstrating its IMS application portfolio, conferencing features, hosted and wireless business voice over IP (VoIP) features, and softphones. The Tekelec 6000 is a standards-based carrier grade VoIP platform and session border controller A Session Border Controller is a device used in some VoIP networks to exert control over the signaling and usually also the media streams involved in setting up, conducting, and tearing down calls. that enables operators to deploy a complete range of next-generation services such as softphone with multimedia capabilities, conferencing, find-me, and intelligent Web portal, unified messaging and voicemail capabilities * Tekelec 9000 Distributed Switching Solution (DSS) - combines media gateway controller, signaling gateway, media gateway and application server functionality, providing all of the capabilities required to cap and replace existing switching networks as operators transition to IP, along with a feature-rich platform for packet services and transport Hear Tekelec Director Speak at CTIA Dan Bantukul, director of product management, Tekelec Network Signaling Group, will present on "NGN 2.0: The IMS Upgrade," during The IMS Summit @ CTIA 2007 on March 28 at 11:30 a.m. in room 304G of the Orange County Convention Center The Orange County Convention Center (OCCC) is the primary public convention center in Central Florida. The large complex is located on International Drive, a major tourist area in Orlando, Florida. . Bantukul will present on "Upgrading the NGN to IMS: A Signaling Perspective" at the AHCIET Latin American Conference on March 28 at 3:40 p.m. in room 300 of the Orange County Convention Center.
