The Alliance of Telecommunications Industry Solutions (ATIS) outlined its plan to achieve a standardized approach for an interoperable inter-carrier voice over Internet protocol (VoIP) call routing (IVCR) solution.
At a workshop held in June, representatives from ATIS member companies along with other industry organizations reached consensus in determining that the industry will benefit from a unified approach to IVCR implementation.
Participants in the workshop, which included ATIS member companies and representatives from the Country Code 1 ENUM Limited Liability Company (CC1 ENUM LLC), the Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP), the GSM Association (GSMA) and the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), agreed that network interconnection architectures could be implemented to achieve a unified call routing solution.
In order to assess whether a common call routing solution is suitable, ATIS established the Inter-carrier Call Routing Working Group (IVCR-WG), which will examine the Centralized Upper Tier Registry (CUTR) model that was developed as a result of the ATIS-commissioned IVCR Focus Group.
The IVCR-WG will analyze the CUTR for domestic and global scalability, flexibility to adapt to new service requirements and its ability to meet performance expectations such as support for high-volume bilaterals and reasonable query response times.
