TMW: SSO Catalyst simple on the outsideDALLAS--Single Sign on. It sounds so simple. And in networks that have been multivendor for quite sometime it sounds like something that most assuredly has been addressed before. Not so. Not in a standard way.

Click here to read more from this Show Daily Wrap-Up... Show Daily: Dec. 7, 2006What will the TeleManagement Forum, an 18-year-old organization, be when it grows up? Well, the answer has a lot to do with what carriers decide to be when they grow up. Click here to read more from today's Show Daily... Show Daily: Dec. 6, 2006There's been a lot of discussion here at TeleManagement World about who owns the customer. It's a question driven in part by the convergence of the telecom and media sectors--a trend that the TeleManagement Forum is addressing both at this event and in its organization. Click here to read more from today's Show Daily...

Show Daily Preview: Nov. 14, 2006When carriers talk about fixed/mobile convergence, they usually discuss the big-ticket items: the merging of networks, routing, switching and seamless connectivity while moving from the home to the office and worlds in between.

And those historically locked in the telecom universe are beginning to see a similar dynamic: theirs is not the only world that matters... Converging operationsWhen carriers talk about fixed/mobile convergence, they usually discuss the big-ticket items: the merging of networks, routing, switching and seamless connectivity while moving from the home to the office and worlds in between. They talk about applications that can function over whatever pipe they happen to latch on to. Only a select few dwell on the inner workings of those networks--the support systems. But convergence of the operations and business support systems (OSS/BSS) is as critical as the access networks themselves... Writing the book on IPTV qualityService providers now rolling out IPTV services probably would not agree with the notion that they are making it up as they go along, since that would be an insult to the strategists and technicians who have put hours upon years into the ongoing transformation of telcos into video providers.
