Objectives:
The Internet Protocol (IP) is the world’s dominant data
communications protocol. However, traditional ways of
billing by telcos doesn’t fit IP. The classic ‘time and distance’
paradigm is not applicable to bursty traffic. Nevertheless, IP must be billed
if carriers are to stay profitable.
This one day course examines how this goal can be achieved. It starts by looking at the IP chain of services necessary to deliver IP-based services to customers before looking at major characteristics of IP. This is not an in-depth IP course but some aspects of IP are essential to understand how to bill IP.
The course examines both fixed and mobile IP Billing as well as a major IP application (from the carriers viewpoint ) – Voice over IP.
