Figure 6-12: S<strong>IP</strong> user agent call parameters setup snapshot<br />

Our S<strong>IP</strong> terminal uses also JMF API to add enable audio and <strong>Video</strong>. Our S<strong>IP</strong> implementation<br />

uses TCP or UDP protocol for signaling. The Figure 6-12 shows a brief snapshot of S<strong>IP</strong> Terminal<br />

when inviting another user to videoconferencing. We’ve used also other S<strong>IP</strong> terminals [180] and<br />

[181] to test our Interworking Server and to verify compatibility issues.<br />

6.4 Conclusion<br />

Diversity and heterogeneity of multimedia terminals and services characterize today <strong>IP</strong><br />

networking environment. Consequently, interworking becomes a critical issue for resolving the<br />

differences in these elements and enabling seamless provision of audiovisual applications across<br />

networks. Interworking is a way of making different communicating systems cooperate to perform<br />

a particular service. Thus, this chapter emphasizes technical issues on call control and session<br />

establishment interworking between an ISO DMIF-compliant terminal and IETF S<strong>IP</strong>-compliant.<br />

We described, in this chapter, the design and implementation of an experimental interworking<br />

signaling gateway that performs various translation functions between the two signaling protocols,<br />

including session protocol conversion, service gateway conversion, and address translation.<br />

Multimedia Internet designers may then transparently combine MPEG-4 multimedia content and<br />

<strong>IP</strong> telephony for advance videoconferencing services such as e-learning, e-commerce or<br />

collaborative conferencing. Internet users might well have the impression that it is an integrated<br />

multimedia service offered by a single Internet site. This is what we call a “seamless <strong>IP</strong><br />

videoconferencing service interworking”. Current implementation supports both translation modes.<br />
