Talk:interworking

From Wiktionary, the free dictionary
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Interworking has a specific meaning in telecommunications and is used constantly in signalling standards. I guess if I can find a real definition, I will post it here.

I guess it is still vague, which is a shame, because more precision is needed because it is not always clear whether they are talking about interworking between signalling platforms, or interworking with the bearer layer. Or they should stop using the term as a description of the contents of a spec.

"The means of supporting communications and interactions between entities in different networks or systems." -ITU
