ABSTRACT:
IP technologies, including Web 2.0 and the emerging interactivity of the Web, can be combined with service provider APIs and hosted features to create new revenues and new partnerships for network operators. These tools from the Internet side can be combined with application and service tools, including Parlay and IMS on the operator side, and with SDP-hosted features overall, to create a new business model that eliminates the current risk of disintermediation that network operators face in an Internet/IP era.
