Abstract :
A basic understanding of the technical problems in integrating voice and data is provided. The different types of traffic found in communication systems are examined. Integration is investigated at different levels. In particular, the focus is on the integration of voice and data at the switching level. Different switching approaches are compared and some integrated-switching systems are described.<>
