Editor's Notes

  • #3: Consumer behavior evolution is driving the change: New devices Ne style of communication (OTT) Introducing new technology to the daily business such as Smart City concepts enabling: New ways of doing standard things (parking, metering, garbage collection)
  • #4: Emphasize smart ways of network architecture and management vs simple capacity extention
  • #5: Commodity HW or Cloud based solutions
  • #6: Evolution to EPC is the industry response Flexibility of the protocol allowed to build dedicated interfaces for each core network function: good for separation and localization of a specific functionality, but introduces a challenge in the management of this infrastrcutre.
  • #7: Talk on this slide and continue introducing signaling storms. Behavioral aspect of mobile user is also evolving. The main signaling storm industry has faced before were largely tight to festive communication peaks between mobile users, While today, these storms are becoming daily reality due to new usage profiles DSC is in the center of the network what makes it a logical place to implement different techniques to deal with this fenomena,
  • #9: This does not limit mobile operator to limit their business priorities that might be different at a given moment in time. - Congestion situations, give a sample on WiMAX user.
  • #10: Integration of different elements and functions in the network potentially using different protocols Changing the interface elements depending on the congestion status of the destination systems
  • #11: Packet integrity
  • #12: Management of not only network elements but also diameter applications.
  • #13: STP is just routing, while here we are talking about much more functionality
