As many service providers have moved to IP for transport, there has been some price erosion. Service providers are looking for new ways to capture customers, increase revenues from existing customers, and retain customers on their new, IP networks. Mr. Burger's keynote address will describe the various roles of industry consortia and standards bodies in addressing these issues. In his session on "Scaling Services Appropriately," Mr. Burger will describe how to develop and deploy enhanced multimedia services that generate high revenues. He will also explain how to decrease service creation risk by using the right protocols and environments. Finally, he will discuss successful deployments from Europe, the United States and Asia, and will cover the computer science fundamentals that explain why these methods are so successful.
