International Conference on IP Multimedia Subsystems Architecture and Applications(IMSAA–2007) is jointly organized by International Institute of Information Technology–Bangalore(iiit–b) and IEEE Bangalore Section. This conference also been co–sponsored by leading MNCs working in the areas of Telecommunication. The conference would focus on different areas of research and development in IP Multimedia Subsystems (IMS). iiit–b is a technical graduate university in the heart of the Silicon Valley of India which houses more than 1500 IT companies all around.<br>The IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) is an exciting attempt at defining a uniform services control layer for next–generation telecommunication networks, and is attracting increased interest from telecom providers and carriers across the world. In particular, IMS is core to the vision of converged services, and aims to provide the same set of features and multimedia services across a variety of access networks, such as 3G, cable and 802.11 hotspots, with appropriate charging and access control. IMS is also touted as the vehicle for offering a variety of exciting new services, such as IPTV, multimedia conferencing and multiplayer gaming, as well as a means to enable seamless communication across enterprise and provider networks through integration with other technologies (such as Web 2.0).<br>The IMSAA 2007 technical program committee is soliciting papers addressing the research challenges and advances towards a world of converged and intelligent services, based on novel applications and extensions to the IMS framework. Papers must present original and previously unpublished work, validated by experimentation, simulation, or analysis. Practical experiences and experimental efforts, including submissions from industry, including both telecom providers and device vendors, addressing both successes and limitations with IMS, are particularly welcome. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to as mentioned on ″Call for Paper″ page. <b>Keywords:</b> * Architectures and Runtimes for IMS Elements<br>o Application Server Architectures and Converged Containers o Architectures for Rich and Scalable Presence o Service Mediation and Billing Platforms<br>* IMS Core Services<br>o Real–time Service Support: (voice, video calls, multimedia conferencing, multiplayer gaming) o Content/Context–aware services: (Location, presence, social and community context) o Service Creation Environments (IMS, SCIM, Service Delivery Platforms, Integrated environments)<br>* Device, Subscriber, Service and Network Management<br>o Provisioning and management (Handsets, PDA′s, Set top Box, Home Gateway) o Subscriber and User Profile Management o Managing the quality of the user experience (QoE, QoS) o End to end Performance Measurement and modeling (signaling, media, services)<br>* Operator Network Planning<br>o Routing and Load Balancing o Redundancy and Fault Tolerance o MVNO Operations and Support<br>* Novel IMS–based Applications<br>o Gaming and mixed–reality o Environmental and Sensor Monitoring o Multimedia Content Sharing o Converged IN o Converged Home Network o IPTV over IMS<br>* Security, Identity Management and Privacy<br>o Privacy and Security in Composite Applications o Privacy in LBS<br>* IMS and Alternative Technologies<br>o P2P and IMS (VoIP, Instant Messaging, Gaming) o Integrating IMS and Web2.0 services (Mashups, Rich Internet Applications) o User–generated Services and Content<br>* Case Studies and Status of IMS deployment<br>o Interoperability Testing o IMS Support in Vendor Products o Benchmarking IMS Services and Applications<br>* Testbeds and Software Tools<br>o Service Test and Validation Platforms o Open Source Initiatives o Benchmarking IMS Services and Applications<br>* IMS Clients and Devices<br>o IMS–aware consumer devices o Media/communication platforms<br>
