OVERVIEW
Future success for telecommunications companies rests upon multimedia services supported by broadband capabilities. The economic promises of multimedia and broadband are high but so are the risks, and the road ahead is unclear. To help companies stay abreast of current industry trends and to forecast the future of multimedia, the International Engineering Consortium is pleased to present Broadband and Multimedia Services: Current Developments, Applications, and Technologies.
The explosion in network technology, on-line content programming, and high-speed Internet access options is encouraging the deployment of advanced interactive services. However, is this enough to make broadband and multimedia commercially viable? What additional network resources (such as bandwidth) are needed? What new applications should be developed, and what role does the Internet play? Use this report to examine the requirements, challenges, issues, and solutions needed to make broadband/multimedia profitable and commercially successful.
