IMS Forum Plugfest test plan and roadmap finalized

January’s Plugfest (15th through the 19th of 2007) is the first in a series of IMS Forum Plugfests that will run through 2008. The events will establish industry-recognized certification for IMS products and services that have achieved the highest level of interoperability. IMS Plugfests are open to both IMS Forum members and non-members.

Applications and services to be tested include voice services, fix-mobile convergence, presence, instant messaging and hosted IP PBX operating across multiple networks such as Mobile, WiFi, Wireline and Cable broadband. The tests will also focus on building the reference IMS services test network for future IMS Plugfest events described in our roadmap. The roadmap’s overall objective is to provide an industry-wide validation process for IMS applications and services as applicable to the ‘Services and Applications Layer’ of the IMS architecture.
