JAIN envisions the creation of a number of Java APIs that abstract the details of networks and protocol implementations, and allow for the development of portable applications. The JAIN Protocol Experts Group (PEG) will focus on developing Java APIs for protocols used in telephony, INs, wireless networks, and the Internet. The PEG is organized into an SS7 subgroup and an IP subgroup. The article provides an introduction to PEG. It next describes the JAIN SS7 APIs. It then describes the JAIN IP APIs. The article also explains how JAIN SS7 and IP APIs can be leveraged for the converged SS7-IP networks of the future and describes the JAIN PEG roadmap.
