摘要：Nowadays, Multimedia Communication has improved rapidly to allow people to communicate via the Internet. However, Internet users cannot communicate with each other unless they use the same chatting applications since each chatting application uses a certain signaling protocol to make the media call. The interworking module is a very critical issue since it solves the communication problems between any two protocols, and enables people around the world to make a voice/video call even if they use different chatting applications. Providing interoperability between different signaling protocols and multimedia applications takes the advantages of more than one protocol. Usually, each signaling protocol has its own messages which differ from other signaling protocol messages format. Thus, when two clients use different signaling protocols want to communicate phonetically, the sent/received messages between them will not be understood because the control and media packets in each protocol are different than the corresponding ones in the other protocol, The interworking module solves this kind of problem by matching the signals and media messages by providing translation gateways in the middle between the two protocols. Thus, many interworking modules have been proposed in order to enable many protocols’ users to chat with each other without any difficulties. This paper compares two interworking modules between Inter-Asterisk eXchange Protocol and Jingle Protocol. An experimental implementation in terms of session time is provided.
