Intel and Siemens Communications have agreed to work togetehr on
technology for unified communications based on VoIP. The two companies
have agreed to jointly fund and cooperatively conduct research focused
on secure wireless networks and real-time open unified communications
in the short term, as well as work together longer term to create
comprehensive vertical industry collaboration solutions to drive
business process optimisation for key market segments such as
telecommunications service providers, financial services and digital
healthcare. Additional components of the agreement call for the two
companies to establish joint market development efforts focused on the
enterprise and service provider sectors. The overall goal of the joint
effort is to demonstrate real time communications solutions for
business process optimisation using Intel architecture such as Intel
dual-core technology and carrier class Rack Mounted Servers (RMS) from
Intel and the HiPath 8000 and OpenScape from Siemens.
The first step is to demonstrate the OpenScape platform running
Applications such as Personal Portal, Unified communications, Video and
Voice Conferencing and Mobile Clients. Intel and Siemens expect to
present findings and display the first wave of technology solutions
developed at an Intel lab in the US to selected customers by the end of
2006. The Intel lab will also act as a center for the optimization and
integration of products from independent software vendors (ISVs) and
other third party systems to work with the new open unified
communication VoIP technologies. Additionally, Siemens and Intel plan
to jointly optimize and prepare Siemens' software portfolio based on
Intel dual-core technology and Intel virtualisation technology to
provide highest performance scalability and flexible capacity for
future performance growth regarding user updates and functional
additions to be rolled out worldwide.
