BELLEVUE, Wash. –– October 24, 2005 –– GoAhead® Software, the expert in building integrated middleware for highly available systems, today announced that Dr. Asif Naseem, GoAhead senior vice president and CTO, will present “Advances in Development Platforms” at TMC’s INTERNET TELEPHONY® Conference & EXPO Fall 2005 on October 25, at the Los Angeles Convention Center.
Session highlights include a look at the key business challenges facing the telecom industry. Panelists will address the paradigm shift among equipment manufacturers from proprietary to standards-based commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) solutions and discuss in detail the development platforms that have been born in this transitioning market. Dr. Naseem will be joined by industry colleagues from Motorola and MERA Systems in a panel discussion chaired by CEO of CommuniTech Services, Neal Shact.
“This topic is extremely relevant,” stated Naseem. “This is made evident by the growing momentum within the marketplace towards standards such as AdvancedTCA and Carrier-Grade Linux, as well as the Service Availability Forum Hardware Platform Interface (HPI) and Application Interface Specification (AIS),” Naseem said. “GoAhead is excited to be a part of this event, and I hope many join us for an interesting dialogue,” Naseem said.
INTERNET TELEPHONY® Conference & EXPO, held October 24-27, 2005, is the world’s largest and best-attended VoIP trade show. Last February, the show drew more than 6,200 buyers and sellers of VoIP products and services to Miami. For this upcoming October show, TMC projects total attendance to exceed 7,500.
“We are very pleased that Mr. Naseem will be participating in this year’s show. GoAhead Software is widely recognized and respected as an industry leader, and I am confident that our attendees will appreciate and value the opportunity to hear his perspective on advances in development platforms,” said TMC president and conference co-chair, Rich Tehrani. “Over the past twelve months, widespread adoption of VoIP by global service providers, businesses and governments has reinforced that this exciting technology is a viable, cost-effective communications solution. As a result, we are seeing a significant number of senior-level executives attending INTERNET TELEPHONY Conference & EXPO as a means of learning about the technology so they too can take advantage of its benefits.”
