This note covers the following topics:
technology and regulation, voip classification and the regulatory challenges,
methodology the system dynamics standard method, system dynamics model for
calea, calea background, calea causal loops, Calea stock and flow, model

This note covers
the following topics: current state of the art in Internet Telephony, key
protocols involved in VoIP and their roles in this new technology, limitations
of current VoIP technology, key factors influencing the growth of Internet
telephony services for global communications.
This
paper first discusses the key issues that inhibit Voice over IP (VOIP) to be
popular with the users. This document discuss the protocols and standards that
exist today and are required to make the VOIP products from different vendors
to interoperate. The main focus is on H.323 and SIP (Session Initiation
Protocol), which are the signaling protocols. We also discuss some hardware
standards for internet telephony.
This paper focuses on these VoIP specific security threats and the
countermeasures to mitigate the problem. At
first, this paper gives a brief introduction of VoIP techniques: the network
structure, network components, protocols and standards, data handling
procedures, quality of service requirements, etc. Secondly, the paper
discusses the VoIP specific security threats using the principle of CIA
(Confidentiality, Integrity and Availability). The countermeasure to mitigate
these threats is also discussed.
