SIMPLE - Purpose

Purpose

SIMPLE applies SIP to the problems of:

  • registering for presence information and receiving notifications when such events occur, for example when a user logs in or comes back from lunch;
  • sending short messages, analogous to SMS or two-way paging;
  • managing a session of real-time messages between two or more participants.

Implementations of the SIMPLE based protocols can be found in SIP Softphones and also in SIP Hardphones.

Famous quotes containing the word purpose:

    As the purpose of comedy is to correct the vices of men, I see no reason why anyone should be exempt.
    Molière [Jean Baptiste Poquelin] (1622–1673)

    Civilization is a process in the service of Eros, whose purpose is to combine single human individuals, and after that families, then races, peoples and nations, into one great unity, the unity of mankind. Why this has to happen, we do not know; the work of Eros is precisely this.
    Sigmund Freud (1856–1939)

    It is my purpose to disclose the mystery at once, and to ask you to look for your interest,—should you choose to go on with my chronicle,—simply in the conduct of my persons, during this disclosure to others.
    Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)
