mobile communication networks have today, or rather from countless immeasurable benefits to the world. As with other technologies, the world is a difficult place, it would have to leave without a mobile network. Mobile phone, security, mobile banking and many other uses, the benefits of networks could be listed. In fact, we can not tell, but examples of areas, we give the mobile phone networks have benefited. We can save money that would be spent on travel only on calls. It seems the rust to $ 100 on a journey, as we will save in the office is not wasted sitting. Security What about the security benefits we take for mobile networks? It allows us to call the police if we have problems at any time with mobile phones. You

could be on the market in the street, the bus or have a picnic, anywhere. Appealing is simple, practical and comfortable, with a cell phone. Health He comes to us in our health. You can fall at a remote location, where medical help is not readily accessible patient. You can use the cellular network to contact a doctor and not receive medical care over distance. Information Transfer Quick and easy transfer of information is an important advantage, available on the network. could have messages, the time lost by postal and courier services, the recipient can only be achieved in seconds by text messages from mobile phone networks operate. Business Opportunity There will also be business opportunities. mobile operators to offer business opportunities for call centers and telephone booth, where people pay the telephone and using public lines in the network. The good thing is that everyone can participate in this business and live. Advertising Another advantage of the wireless network is advertising. Network operators, participants in the network from anywhere within range of the network domain. In a few seconds to get publicity, promotions and jingles can be active participants in the network. Some smart businessmen are using this medium of mass SMS (short message service) to deliver the active participants and thus promote their products and services to active participants in the network. The active participants in the network will receive the messages on their phones and take measures so that the contents of the message.

The development of mobile phones brought convenient and advantages to the world. Communication between people and people are easier and fast. Though, the disadvantages brought along with the fast grown technology cannot be ignored. These problems not only influenced people personally but also the society. Symptoms caused by the radiation of mobile phones are one of the most argued problems. Many scientists believe that the radiation from the mobile phones may cause the users to have different symptoms such as headache, earaches, blurring of vision and even causing cancer. Though, these

problems are still under research. Mobile phone users are advice to reduce the usage on mobile phones if it is possible. Mobile phone addiction is a big social problem. Psychiatrists believe that mobile phone addiction is becoming one of the biggest non-drug addictions in the 21st century. Along with the age drop of the mobile phone users and the ease of prepaid method provide by the system operators, most teenagers now own their own mobile phone and network service. Teenagers are engaged on their mobile phones all the time, no matter on phone calls, using SMS text messages, personalising the mobile phones with ringtones and pictures etc. Besides this, many people are running after the lastest mobile phones. New models of mobile phones are released almost everyday. In order to get up-to-date, people tend to change their mobile phones once in a while. These became habits among the mobile phone users causing them to spend unnecessary cost on mobile bills and costs. Cyber bullying is also another issue among the disadvantages of mobile phones. Cyber bullying is a bullying act using offensive words and behavior via online chatting, emails or SMS text messages. It was showed that the psychological effects of cyber bullying are much severe that face-to-face bullying. This problem now is among teenagers especially the secondary students. There are still many problems causing but the new technology. Mobile phones with camera functions are causing privacy problems. Saudi Arabia had banned camera phones through out the country while many countries are concern about this problem. This is because many people have misused the usage on the camera phones such as using it as a hidden camera to take photos which are private. The spreading on computer viruses is also a problem for this new technology. Just like computer viruses, these viruses will affect the normal usage on mobile phones making them to malfunction and causing destructions.

conference focus body lang=EN-US style='tab-interval:36.0pt'> The mobile market is now an open market place and is currently undergoing an evolution and major changes at every level of the value chain. Operator walled garden have failed to attract customers and new players such as handset vendors, web service providers and the third parties are now offering their own services. Mobile operators are looking for new revenue streams in this competitive market and for ways to justify their infrastructure upgrades. Network APIs are subject of increasing interest for mobile operators as they have the potential to enable a variety of new business models, including app stores and two-sided business models. Also mobile operators are facing an increasing competition from web-based service providers and they are now realising that they have to act and choose between a smart-pipe or dumppipe long-term strategy. Mobile Network Applications, Openness and Web Innovation conference will explore new mobile applications ecosystem and how it is enabling a shift in speed of innovation. During this conference leading mobile operators and service providers, applications developers, handset and smartphone manufacturers and the standards organisations will present case studies on the latest application creation innovations in the industry and how openness affects the entire environment.

Mobile Network Signaling: Telecommunications signaling is the transmission of data for purposes of sharing information for network control and/or call control. The type of signaling used in a modern network is called Signaling System number Seven (SS7). SS7 is a critical component of modern telecommunications systems. SS7 is a communications protocol that provides signaling and control for various network services and capabilities. Being a layered protocol, SS7 provides various protocol levels for connection oriented and connectionless (database) signaling in fixed and mobile networks. SS7 is comprised of a series of interconnected network elements such as switches, databases, and routing nodes. Each of these elements is interconnected with links, each of which has a specific purpose. The routing nodes are the heart of the SS7 network and are called a Signal Transfer Point (STP). STPs are connected to Service Switching Points (SSP) that are switches equipped with SS7 control logic. SS7 Network Architecture: Each of these network elements have a specific role in the SS7 network. Service Switching Point (SSP): A telecommunications switch that contains the control logic (software) necessary to send/receive SS7 messages to other nodes in the network. If a Mobile Switching Center (MSC) has said control logic, it is by definition considered an SSP. Signal Transfer Point (STP): This is the "heart" of the SS7 network. STP routes messages between other network elements. Service Control Point (SCP): This is the "brain" of the SS7 network. The SCP

is nothing more than a database. However, utilization of a SCP offers profound enhancements for service delivery and network control. Service Node (SN): Includes database functionality of the SCP along with additional capabilities such as voice interaction and control of voice resources. Generally speaking, SCPs work well with requirements that call for voluminous data transactions. SNs, on the other hand, are typically not

designed for high volume d ata processing. Instead, SNs are best suited for special circumstance call processing involving voice resources and/or

interaction.
