Unified Communications:
The Advantage of a Converged World

Monday, January 29th, 2007
11:30-1:00 p.m.
MSC - Century Room A.
Lunch will be provided.

The essence of communication is breaking down barriers. In its simplest form, unified communications breaks distance and time barriers so that people can communicate in real time or near real time when they are not together. In our world today, people use many different devices to communicate (cellular, PDAs, personal computers [PC], thin clients, instant messaging, etc.), and there are now new forms of communication as part of our new converged world. The unified communications concept involves breaking down barriers so that people using different modes of communication, different media, and different devices can still communicate to anyone, anywhere, at any time.
