Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c20222) has announced the addition of Delivering Strategic Benefits with IP Multimedia Subsystem to their offering.
IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) could have a major role to play in the future delivery of multimedia services over fixed and mobile networks. Vendors claim that IMS will bring diverse
benefits for network operators, but hype and lack of clarity make it difficult for operators to identify the most significant short- and long-term gains, and to define a robust strategy
for deployment of IMS. This report studies specific mobile, fixed and converged services proposed by IMS vendors, assessing their market potential and the barriers that must be overcome
to make them a success. It also considers the role of IMS in supporting strategic initiatives, such as fixed-mobile substitution, converged broadband-mobile services, and integrated
all-IP networks. The report provides specific recommendations to network operators, to guide their decisions on IMS deployment, and to equipment vendors, to strengthen their
propositions.
Delivering Strategic Benefits with IP Multimedia Subsystem asks key questions such as what are the potential benefits of IMS to network operators, in terms of services, cost savings,
support of strategic initiatives, etc It looks at the prospects for short-term service opportunities enabled by IMS and which ones are the most promising.The role IMS which could play in
fixed-mobile substitution and fixed-mobile convergence is examined.
The report also analyzes when is the right time to implement IMS and what are the key factors to consider in defining its role in a network.
