The mission of this site is to promote and propagate Java into the Communications Industry. At this site there is a ground swell of support from industry associations, software vendors, universities, hobbyists, and individual contributors, for the development of Java concepts, code, utilities, programs, events, articles, projects, and white papers.

 
Features

The SIP Communicator project has once again been accepted as a mentoring organization for the Google Summer of Code program as a part of its 2010 edition. If you're a student and you want to write open source this summer (and get a paid to do so ;) ) pick up one of the SIP Communicator summer of code projects.

Students can begin applying on March 29th and until April 9th. Hurry up, and pick a project! Good luck to all!

The SIP Communicator project is proud to announce that it now supports file transfer for most protocols supported by SIP Communicator. Starting from build 2002 SIP Communicator users would be able to share files via the XMPP, MSN, Yahoo! Messenger, ICQ and AIM protocols. You can download the application and try it yourself. This implementation is part of an effort funded by the NLnet foundation. However, early research on the subject started long ago and many have contributed.

Accendia Iris Server is a complete communications solution for developing Java client/server applications. At core the technology implements RPC calls over a bidirectional wire protocol with the following key features:
  • Binary wire protocol designed to reduce CPU cycles used to marshal and unmarshal messages and the volume of data transferred;
  • Non-blocking sockets solution with a fixed number of processing threads;
  • Server memory footprint <15Mb;
  • Callback invocations from the server are performed over the socket connection initiated by the client allowing the deployment of the client behind a firewall;
  • Support for asynchronous client invocations, meaning the client is not waiting for a response from the server, allows fast data uploads from the client to the server and reduces the volume of data transferred on the network;
  • A downstreaming mechanism for downloading large hierarchical data structures from the server without creating large buffers;
  • Integrated authentication and access control;
  • Support for client session and application lifecycle management.

Congratulations to the JDiameter project for their graduation and promotion out of the incubator. JDiameter is API and default implementation of the Diameter protocol (based on RFC 3588) written in Java. API can be used for commercial realizations of a stack and appendices such as NASREQ (RFC 4005), EAP-based authentication (RFC 4072), Credit-Control (RFC 4006), or even some of the 3GPP applications (Sh, Ro, Cx and ets.).
