Conference Day 2 | Wednesday 17 December 2014
08.00 | WELCOME, REGISTRATION AND COFFEE |
08.30 | Evolution or Game Changer? | |
When WebRTC was first introduced by Google some have seen it as disruptive technology that will change the way we communicate. 3+ years down the road enterprise communication is still pretty much the same as we knew it in 2011. How will WebRTC impact B2B and B2C communication? Is it only going to be another means of communication with the contact center or will it revolutionize the way enterprises communicate? Speaker to be determined |

08.50 | Establishing WebRTC Ecosystem in the Enterprise IT | |
Discussing and suggesting tweaks to make WebRTC application development possible in an IT Voice/Video Services department where none of the staff is a developer. Fikri Firat, Garanti Teknoloji |
||
09.10 | Non-Telecom Developers Experiences with WebRTC | |
Telecommunications is complex, telecoms people don’t blink an eye at the complexity within WebRTC. But for most software and web developers, webRTC is quite complex and confusing. We’ll review feedback from some non-telecom developers on their initial experiences with webRTC based on a recent developer survey. How can we make WebRTC easier and not loose the openness and ubiquity that make it so attractive? Alan Quayle, Independent Engineer |
||
09.30 | WebRTC Opportunities and Use Cases with IMS Infrastructures | |
Presenting WebRTC uses cases in full web infrastructure. Discussing examples of interesting uses cases for operators to leverage their IMS investment by adding agile innovation with WebRTC. Michel L'Hostis, CEO, Apizee |
||
09.50 | A WebRTC Powered Travel Agency | |
Describing how WebRTC solved communication costs issue with a network of partners in 100 countries. Luis Borges Quina, CTO, Apidaze |
||
10.10 | Kite: WebRTC for External Headsets Implementation | |
Integrating the native device’s features (such as response and hang-up) with the WebRTC browser client. The integration allows the operators to use their own device in their daily work. Dimitri Osler, CTO, Wildix |

Luis López, Miguel París and Raul Benítez, Grupo de Sistemas y Comunicaciones, Universidad Rey Juan Carlos |
||
14.20 | Rebtel: Bridging the 3 Most Costly Gaps | |
Describing how VoIP giant Rebtel was able to address the 3 gaps in their WebRTC infrastructure, significantly reducing their development costs and the complexity of their implementation. Todd Greene, Founder & CEO, PubNub |
||
14.40 | Jitsi Videobridge: Advanced and Scalable FLOSS Video Conferencing | |
Presenting the various problems faced by a Selective Forwarding Unit (SFU) and the solutions implemented. Describing ways of achieving scalability in order to services large numbers of conferencing sessions, large numbers of participants in a session and handling participants with poor connections. Sharing difficulties faced with support for Firefox. Emil Ivov, Jitsi |
15.00 | Challenges and Solutions | |
Achieving high quality real-time audio and video communication on mobile devices is hard, there are many technological challenges due to device and network characteristics. Various solutions are available for WebRTC on mobile devices, some are generic while others are more platform specific. Reviewing the challenges and possible solutions for running WebRTC on mobile devices. Amir Zmora, Technology Committee Chairman, AudioCodes & Independent Consultant |
||
15.20 | Energy Consumption Issues | |
Talking about research works on the energy consumption perspective (an aspect of WebRTC that used to be criticised by some SoC vendors). Describing WebRTC implementations Jorg Ott, CallstatS.IO |
||
15.40 | How to Monetize Mobile Services | |
Discussing Android usages. Describing Google Glass WebRTC applications, in particular in the medical world. Arnaud Budkiewicz, Co-founder, Bistri |

WebRTC Standards Update
WebRTC is being standardized at W3C and IETF each taking care of standardization work based on its charter. W3C – Client side APIs – Required so developers will be have a common interface for writing applications that can run on all browsers. IETF – On the wire protocols, states and events – In practice this means all the media stuff as well as requirements for the APIs provided to the W3C. Signaling was left out on purpose.
Since standardization is work in progress and actual implementations are impacted by what Google is releasing in the WebRTC code it is instrumental for everyone involved with WebRTC technically to be updated on the standardization progress, plans and decisions made.
