DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
National Institute of Standards and Technology
Public Safety Voice Over Internet Protocol (VoIP) Roundtable for
Organizations Interested in Utilization of VoIP for Communication
Between Public Safety Personnel
AGENCY: National Institute of Standards and Technology, Department of
Commerce.
ACTION: Notice of Public Workshop.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Office of Law Enforcement Standards (OLES), in cooperation
with the Department of Homeland Security's Office of Interoperability
and Compatibility (DHS/OIC) and representatives of the public safety
community, will hold a public working group on April 7-11, 2008, at the
Institute for Telecommunication Sciences (ITS) in Boulder, CO. The
purpose of the first three days of the meeting (April 7-10, 2008) is to
bring manufacturers together to establish Voice over IP (VoIP)
connectivity between radio communication system bridging devices. The
purpose of the last two days of the working group is to discuss the
development of an enhanced implementation profile for VoIP between
radio system bridging solutions. The results of this and subsequent
roundtable discussions will be used in the development of specific
implementation profiles for VoIP usage in public-safety owned systems.
There is no charge for the roundtable; however, because of meeting
room restrictions, advance registration is mandatory and limited to
three representatives from any one organization. There will be no on-
site, same-day registration. The registration deadline is April 1,
2008. Please note registration and admittance instructions and other
additional information under the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section of
this notice.
DATES: The workshop will be held on April 7-10, 2008, from 8:30 a.m.
until 5 p.m. MT, and April 11, 2008 from 8:30 a.m. until Noon.
ADDRESSES: The roundtable will be held in the Radio Building (Building
1), Room 1103/1105/1107, 325 Broadway, Boulder, CO 80305.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Dereck Orr, (303) 497-5400, e-mail:
dereck.orr@nist.gov. The mailing address is 325 Broadway, Mail Stop
ITS.P, Boulder, CO 80305. Information regarding OLES can be viewed at

viewed at http://www.safecomprogram.gov. Information regarding ITS can
be viewed at http://www.its.bldrdoc.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In response to a request from the U.S.
Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Science and Technology
Directorate (S&T), Command, Control and Interoperability Division
(CCI), Office of Interoperability and Compatibility (OIC), the NIST
Office of Law Enforcement Standards (OLES) is developing protocol
implementation profiles for VoIP communications between public safety
personnel.
The request from OIC germinated from practitioner-raised issues
related to VoIP-enabled solutions being marketed to the public safety
community as an ``interoperability solution,'' yet these solutions will
not interoperate with VoIP-enabled solutions from other manufacturers
making the same claim. The proper way to address this situation is to
develop a protocol implementation profile (or set of profiles) that
contains the minimum standards, parameters and values necessary to
ensure that solutions developed by independent organizations will
interoperate with each other. This roundtable discussion is intended to
lead to the development of a protocol implementation profile for VoIP-
enabled radio system bridging solutions.
Anyone wishing to attend this meeting must register by close of
business April 1, 2008, in order to attend. Please submit your name,
time of arrival, e-mail address and phone number to Ms. Kathy Mayeda
and she will provide you with logistics information for the meeting.
Ms. Mayeda's e-mail address is kmayeda@its.bldrdoc.gov and her phone
number is (303) 497-5890.
All attendees are required to submit their name, time of arrival,
e-mail address and phone number to Ms. Mayeda. Non-U.S. citizens must
also submit their country of citizenship, title, employer/sponsor and
address.
Dated: February 29, 2008.

Acting Deputy Director.
