Abstract
With the introduction of Web Real-Time Communications (WebRTC), both Web technology and RTC have entered a new era. WebRTC is a joint effort of the W3C and IETF, supported by a large industry consortium. The technology offers real-time, peer-to-peer communication capabilities directly in the user´s browser, accessible to websites via JavaScript APIs. Because of the numerous potential applications and the accessibility of the technology, WebRTC is expected to quickly become a game-changing technology in the communication landscape.
