Abstract :
After reviewing the environmental changes in telecommunications and the market trend toward global convergence, this article examines the evolution of the standards-making process, especially from an ITU´s perspective. Projects on IP-based networks and their interworking with the telecommunication networks and MEDIA-COM 2004 are then treated from the viewpoint of the final convergence toward a worldwide global information infrastructure
