• SIP/IMS
• MPLS, IP, ATM,
• GSM BTS, MSC, HLR, VLR
• GPRS SGSN, GGS

iSoftStone has developed a proprietary 3G (TD-SCDMA) data service platform based on 3GPP and OMA, which can be easily embedded in the clients’ system software.

Value-Added Services System
We work with you to develop new services to take advantage of the telecommunication infrastructure. Our experience and expertise includes:

• SMS Service Platform
• MMS Service Platform
• WAP Service Platform
• Push Mail Gateway
• Portal/Download Server
• Streaming Service Platform

3) Embedded Device Software Development
iSoftStone has been providing outsourcing services in embedded device software development since 2001. We have rich experience in mobile domain from 2G (GSM/GPRS) to 3G (WCDMA / EVDO / TD-SCDMA), and also in Hi-Tech manufacturing domain.

Wireless Terminal

• Video phone
• Camera
• Media streaming
• Tools
• WAP

We are experienced in developing software in different mobile phone platforms including: Brew, Windows CE, Windows Mobile, Symbian, Linux and J2ME

Hi-tech Manufacturing
iSoftStone has cooperated with Hi-tech manufacters such as IBM in areas including:

• STB – IPTV
• T1V1 Card
• Container/vehicle inspection systems

4) Embedded Software Testing
Despite encouraging results with various quality improvement approaches, the IT industry is still far from achieving zero defect software. Testing will remain an important activity within software development and maintenance. Both the increasing importance of software in society and the costs that are involved in software testing, confirm the need for structuring the software testing process. Structured testing starts by understanding the principles that underpin every testing process. Starting from these principles a structured approach can be defined and implemented.
iSoftStone goes beyond embedded software testing technologies and traditional modeling and simulation methods by assuring that the system is continually tested throughout the design process. Scenarios created in the analysis phase, describing the systems behaviors, are reused during integration testing to automatically ensure that the system is meeting those scenarios. This is referred to as scenario or requirements based testing. iSoftStone enables the automatic generation of test vectors for the entire system, to ensure you have complete coverage at the unit, integration, and system level.
