Two weeks ago, RADVISION hosted the IMTC SuperOp! 2008 event. The most obvious conclusion from this event is that multimedia conferencing (or should I say Unified Communications) is getting better – at least in terms of interoperability. Without exceptions, all companies successfully connected video sessions with one another. The IMTC SuperOp! event is the main interoperability event of the IMTC. In this event multiple activity groups, each dealing with a different multimedia communications technology, gather in a single room to

The IMTC’s SuperOp! event is just across the corner, and this time, I am proud to say that RADVISION will be hosting it (pdf). Companies coming to this event will be testing their products for interoperability. There are parts of the market though, that are ignoring interoperability. From my own experience, they pay dearly for it in due time. Interoperability can be viewed as a process where you hurtle your product against a product of a different vendor and

The developers I work with are back from an interoperability event held by the IMTC. They tested there 3G-324M and IMS Video Share technologies to make sure our products are interoperable. What are the insights from these events? 3G-324M Today, 3G-324M is a stable technology available in almost every 3G handset in Europe and Asia. It is stable, interoperable and working - between different handset vendors, against multiple servers, and through roaming services around the world. There are, however, two

This is the second part of Interoperability in SIP and its relation to Art. You can read the first part here. SIP Interoperability workshop There were about 20 short but essential presentations at the 90 minutes workshop by the people representing different companies and organizations (yours truly represented IMTC and RADVISION). Overall message was rather unified. It is not all doom and gloom - there is basic interoperability in SIP. But all interoperability is extremely clustered - implementations usually work

SIP today is a standard-de-facto, “The Protocol” which runs our multimedia communication. I believe nobody would argue with this statement. All the vendors have their SIP based equipment in the field, so considering the level of maturity of the protocol (about 10+ years old) and more than 20 SipIt events -(SIPit IOT events) as well as numerous IOT events by other consortia and standard bodies, we can expect that majority of devices on the market are highly interoperable.
