NGN Policy and Regulatory Resources

Substantial investments are being made by operators and equipment manufacturers in what is referred to as IP-Enabled Next Generation Networks (NGNs). IP-enabled NGNs can be seen as a logical progression from separate PSTN, mobile and IP-network infrastructures to unified networks for future electronic communications based on IP. This technological transition is forcing a fundamental re-examination of current policy and regulatory frameworks.
