Forum targets service dependability
By Nicholas Cravotta -- EDN, January 10, 2002
Several companies recently formed the Service Availability Forum to make the content, communication, and transaction services delivered over the evolving packet-based communications network as dependable as the services delivered over the legacy circuit-switched-phone system. The forum, whose members include Hewlett-Packard, IBM, Intel, and Motorola, will focus on such issues as enabling on-demand services, eliminating lost connections, and accelerating development of the design and manufacture of equipment to provide such services.
