IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) has resulted from the work of the Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) toward specifying an all-IP communication service infrastructure (24.229 2009). Mainly looking at the needs and requirements of mobile operators, the 3GPP first specified IMS as a service architecture combining the Internet’s IP technology and wireless and mobility services of current mob...

Using qualitative methods this paper explores how impact sourcing (ImS) ventures frame their activities to marginalized communities. In doing so, the paper attempts to unearth the social-psychological processes undergirding ImS strategies. The findings highlight the difficulties faced by ImS ventures in operationalizing their strategic intent. More specifically, the paper provides insights into...

The IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) is one of the most important trends in networking in last few years. In spite of the large amount of literature on this topic, there are still some uncertainties about its evolution and functionality. This paper provides the framework for analyzing the evolution of IMS architecture, based on two critical points: Quality of Service (QoS) and Charging and Billing...

Defined by the 3 Generation Partnership Project (3GPP), the IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) is becoming the de facto overlay architecture for enabling service delivery in converged environments. In order to explore and to further develop the service delivery mechanisms defined by the IMS, there is the need to enable a reliable testing environment that allows to experiment with these new approache...

Proteomics is the study of and the search for information about proteins. The development of mass spectrometry (MS) such as matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization (MALDI) time-of-flight (TOF) MS and imaging mass spectrometry (IMS), greatly speeds up proteomics studies. At the same time, the MS and IMS applications in medical science give rise to many challenges in mathematics and statistic...

Since synchrotron radiation was discovered, advanced synchrotron radiation based bioanalytical techniques have been rapidly developed such as synchrotron radiation based soft x-ray (SR-XMS) and synchrotron-based Fourier transform infrared microspectroscopy (SR-IMS). In this article, recently obtained information on potential applications of these bioanalytical techniques (SR-XMS & SR-IMS) was r...

The Inductive Monitoring System (IMS) software was developed to provide a technique to automatically produce health monitoring knowledge bases for systems that are either difficult to model (simulate) with a computer or which require computer models that are too complex to use for real time monitoring. IMS uses nominal data sets collected either directly from the system or from simulations to b...

Traffic engineering and QoS Fguarantee is crucial point of any operators’ network. To evaluate IMS services over MPLS enabled network in case study, we have created a testbed for a service provider. Our service provider distributes various services requiring different traffic priorities together with customer-generated traffic. We have enabled the IMS core to trigger associations based on custo...

in this study, a rapid, simple and sensitive ion mobility spectrometry (ims) method with corona discharge as ionization source was described for the morphine determination in human urine. morphine was extracted and purified from urine samples using solid phase extraction procedure with c18 column. it can offer the clean extracts which no extra peaks were observed in ims. under operating experim...
