Abstract
Current information and communication services are growing rapidly in directions very different from those pursued in the past. The strong drive for these services’ fast development and deployment has not been accompanied by a proper understanding of their engineering and design principles, and for the most part, the services’ satisfactory qualitative performance is being obtained by the strength approach of over-provisioning. Thus, there is a strong need for a deeper quantitative understanding of the services’ functioning, an understanding that leads to clear design and control methods that it turn make the services’ efficient deployment and exploitation possible. The research performed within this paper covers analytical and design aspects of technical and economical challenges emerging in multiservice networks and was conducted from a methodological perspective of evolving network infrastructure. The paper focuses on challenging issues in the planning and design of enterprise communication infrastructure and also determines strategies for the successful implementation converged networks.
