Track: Next Generation Emergency Communications Services |
| The Many Uses of Industry Collaboration Events - Why we do them, what we do and what's next? |
| Industry Collaboration Events (ICE) sponsored by the National Emergency Numbers Association (NENA) provide a testing environment in which vendors and carriers test the interoperability and end to end behaviors that are critical for a next generation 911 deployment. The National Emergency Numbers Association has offered these events to its members since 2009. More information about these events can be found at NG911_ICE. This panel includes representatives of the vendors, service providers and standards bodies that collaborate to make these events an essential venue for ensuring the functionality, security and reliability of these life-saving networks. The test events enable testing of NG-specific functions, interoperability and end to end behaviors. Panelists will describe the testing itself as well as the value that it has added to their development and deployment of the elements that provide the core services to Next Generation Emergency Services IP Networks. Focus will be on new functions to be tested for the first time this year and on what will be upcoming in future ICE events. |
