Abstract

The Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) has been proposed as a wat of providing integrated voice and data communications services on a universal or near-universal basis. In this paper, I argue that the evolutionary approach inherent in current ISDN proposals in unlikely to provide an effective long tern solution and advocate a more revolutionary approach, based on the use of advanced packet switching technology. The bulk of this paper is devoted to a detailed description of an Integrated Services Packet Network (ISPN), which I offer as an alternative to current ISDN proposals.
