FYI The May/June issue of IEEE Network was also a special issue on Internet Telephony. Prof Schulzrinne was guest editor which I found quite interesting!

Call for Papers Special Issue of IEEE COMMUNICATION MAGAZINE on Internet TelephonyDue to the potential economic advantages, the integration of several media is desirable and very attractive. Today, however, voice over IP remains somewhat of a technical novelty, hindred by a number of existing problems to provide an assured voice quality. The likely prognosis is that over the next year or two, the advent of Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP) and increased enterprise network bandwidth (achieved with ATM WAN services) could give a boost to voice over IP. This special issue is to bring experts in the field to share with IEEE COMMUNICATION MAGAZINE readers the current problems, components, and experiments in "Internet Telephony". Desirable features of a voice-over-IP system include:
- Optimal use of bandwidth.
- Capacity management.
- Support of speech quality.
- Flexible integration into voice environment (e.g., PBX).
- Enterprise network ready (support LAN/WAN/Internet protocols for direct
attachment).
- System-level scalability: must be easy to add PBX-side interfaces to
support growth in requirements and appropriate links.
- Network-level scalability: must be able to support mapping of a
sufficient
number of extensions (perhaps several thousands) to the respective IP addresses of the destination gateway. A master database with distributed upgrade may be desirable.
IEEE COMMUNICATION MAGAZINE announces a forthcoming issue on "Internet Telephony". Prospective authors should follow IEEE COMMUNICATION MAGAZINE guidelines
and
submit an electronic (PDF file or a PostScript file viewable by Ghostview) copy of the manuscript to one of the Guest Editors listed below. Articles addressing both traditional and innovative products will be given preference. Topics include, but are not limited to:
- Voice over IP/ATM
- IP over ATM/FR for Multimedia
- Traffic Control for Multimedia/Internet Telephony
- QoS Control of Voice over IP
- Evolution of the VPN and PBX environment
- Traffic Capacity Management and Routing Algorithms for Multimedia.
Full manuscript submission deadline July 31, 1999 Notification of acceptance October 30, 1999 Publication Schedule April 2000
