-----------------------------------------------------------

IPTS 2000 is a new workshop dedicated to the important, emerging field of IP Telecom Services research.

In contrast to the services available on the PSTN, a new world of telecom services is possible on an IP-based infrastructure. This world presents new challenges for service development, deployment and management. This one-day workshop will serve as a forum for the dissemination of research relating to these challenges.

We have put together an excellent technical program that includes 8 original research papers, a plenary talk, and a round table discussion. We look forward to the participation from you and your colleagues in the telecom industry and the research community.
