Services on Cisco IP Phones help you enhance productivity, gain the competitive advantage, and even help generate revenue. Services are simply applications that run on the phone rather than on a PC or a Web browser. By developing services tailored to your particular needs, you can achieve unlimited goals.
Cisco AVVID IP Telephony provides an end-to-end Voice over IP solution for enterprises. Part of that solution are Cisco IP Phones, a family of Internet Protocol-based phones. Cisco IP Phones feature a large display, an XML micro-browser capable of retrieving content from Web servers, and the ability to deploy custom services tailored to your organization's or enterprise's needs.
Developing Cisco IP Phone Services uses detailed code samples to explain the tools and processes used to develop custom phone services. You'll learn about XML, CallManager, Cisco IP Phones, and the history behind why Cisco chose XML to deploy phone services. You'll find detailed information to help you learn how to build a service, how to build a directory, and how to integrate your service with Cisco CallManager.
This book complements and expands on the information provided in the Cisco IP Phone Services Software Developer's Kit (SDK). With the information in this book, you can maximize your productivity using the tools provided in the SDK and the custom tools provided on the companion CD-ROM. Beginner and advanced service developers alike benefit from the information in this book. Developing Cisco IP Phone Services represents the most comprehensive resource available for developing services for Cisco IP Phones.
Companion CD-ROM The CD-ROM contains the sample services that are covered in the book, develop-ment utilities from the Cisco IP Phone Services SDK, and new tools written specifically for this book such as XML Validator. One of the most useful applications on the CD-ROM is the CallManager Simulator (CM-Sim). CM-Sim significantly lowers the requirements for service development. You only need a Windows-based PC with CM-Sim and a Web server running, and one Cisco IP Phone 7940 or 7960.

The book supports the developers of services and applications for mobile phones, PDAs and smart phones. This new emerging domain is characterized by a very fast pace of change in the underlying technology, exposing products and applications to a constant risk of obsolescence. The relative youth of this field means that knowledge is comparatively limited.
The book identifies an approach to mitigate the above risks by focusing on:
The development process
The underlying technology and its effects on connectivity
Software architectures
Developing Services for the Wireless Internet offers state-of-the-art technological knowledge and practical know-how to both practitioners – project managers, software architects and designers, process engineers and quality assurance workers, as well as academics and researchers looking to broaden their theoretical outlook. This book is an essential tool for all working in this field.
About this product: Webster's bibliographic and event-based timelines are comprehensive in scope, covering virtually all topics, geographic locations and people. They do so from a linguistic point of view, and in the case of this book, the focus is on "Advanced Mobile Phone Service," including when used in literature (e.g. all authors that might have Advanced Mobile Phone Service in their name). As such, this book represents the largest compilation of timeline events associated with Advanced Mobile Phone Service when it is used in proper noun form. Webster's timelines cover bibliographic citations, patented inventions, as well as non-conventional and alternative meanings which capture ambiguities in usage. These furthermore cover all parts of speech (possessive, institutional usage, geographic usage) and contexts, including pop culture, the arts, social sciences (linguistics, history, geography, economics, sociology, political science), business, computer science, literature, law, medicine, psychology, mathematics, chemistry, physics, biology and other physical sciences. This "data dump" results in a comprehensive set of entries for a bibliographic and/or event-based timeline on the proper name Advanced Mobile Phone Service, since editorial decisions to include or exclude events is purely a linguistic process. The resulting entries are used under license or with permission, used under "fair use" conditions, used in agreement with the original authors, or are in the public domain.
