A look back at the 2009 B/OSS Conference & Expo:
Business and operations support systems are not part of the physical realm when it comes to networking, but they took a lofty leap into the near metaphysical when IBM chief scientist and information management guru, Jeff Jonas, took the stage at the Billing & OSS World Conference & Expo last week.
Jonas redefined the meaning of context and explained how information can be relevant one minute and irrelevant the next, depending on many factors coincidentally within the network operators’ control. Developing a crucial and complete view of the customer is not solved by how much data you collect, he said, but by how you think about, use and commingle that data.
“The smartest your organization can ever be is the sum of its perceptions,” Jonas said. And perceptions change….more.
A look to the future – the 2010 B/OSS Conference & Expo heads to D.C.!
What a capital idea!
Building on the momentum of this year’s event, the Billing & OSS World Conference & Expo will celebrate its 18th year in 2010 by holding its conference in Washington DC. B/OSS is the premier conference and exposition focusing on the business and operations support systems requirements for all communications service providers. This networking and education event will be held June 9 – 11, 2010 at the Gaylord Resort & National Convention Center.
The show attracts top-level executives and decision makers from domestic and international service providers of all makes and tiers, from rural and independent local exchange carriers to Tier 1 wireline and wireless operators. Attendees also include cable operators, Internet Service Providers and IP-based providers. Through this event, service providers, vendors and other industry experts come together to help move the industry forward.
