Traditional Telecom Messaging Services will Remain a Dominant Factor in the Development of Mobile Networks.DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c50427) has announced the addition of "Advancing Peer-to-Peer Short Messaging See SMS. Towards Mobile IM" to their offering. Mobile operators have managed to maintain their legacy message delivery platforms, despite the advances that have been made in platform capabilities over recent years. Traditional "Store and Forward" SMS (1) (Storage Management System) Software used to routinely back up and archive files. See HSM. (2) (Systems Management Server) Systems management software from Microsoft that runs on Windows NT Server. delivery platforms have managed to retain their place, chiefly because of their cost. Historically, operating costs operating costs npl → gastos mpl operacionales of these platforms are high and could be easily replaced. This report is primarily targeted at mobile operators in order to provide some strategic views and observations on the possibilities available to them to interoperate See interoperable. between the existing Short Message Service and Instant Messaging Exchanging text messages in real time between two or more people logged into a particular instant messaging (IM) service. Instant messaging is more interactive than e-mail because messages are sent immediately, whereas e-mail messages can be queued up in a mail server for seconds or . Traditional telecoms messaging services will remain a dominant factor in mobile network development, but will be integrated further into new services that will emerge by the continued convergence opportunities of services. Advanced mobile IM functionality will make use of many of the features that are readily available on mobile networks to maximize service capabilities and provide the same functionality as exists for IM now. Operators and vendors will find this publication useful as they make decisions about messaging technology direction, messaging functionality, and extension of instant messaging into mobile networks with a mind towards evolving existing messaging solutions to more advanced capabilities. Applications and Functionality Discussed * Direct Delivery * SMS Gateway * Billing and Reporting * Presence Data * Delivery Rules Engine * Text Gateway Sampling of Report Benefits * Provides operators and vendors insights into functionality and architecture direction of SMS and IM * Evaluates benefits of direct delivery vs. existing message delivery * Evaluates architecture and functionality for IM as an extended SMS application The Advance towards Mobile Instant Messaging Mobile Instant Messaging abbreviated as MIM is a presence enabled messaging service that aims to transpose the Internet desktop messaging such as ICQ or MSN experience to the usage scenario of being connected via a mobile/cellular device. . The Existing Mobile Network Messaging Infrastructure. Further Advances. Wireless LAN A local area network that transmits over the air typically in the 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz unlicensed frequency band. It does not require line of sight between sender and receiver. Wireless base stations (access points) are wired to an Ethernet network and transmit a radio frequency over an area Possibilities. Short Message 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. . IM as an Extended SMS Application. New Revenue Opportunities for the Operator Market Share. Anticipated Growth. SMS/Mobile IM Infrastructure. Advances in IM/SMS Functionality.
