Due to the increasing popularity of Peer-to-Peer (P2P) computing, the information technology industry and standardization organizations have started to direct their efforts on standardizing P2P algorithms and protocols. The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) has recently formed the Peer-to-Peer SIP (P2PSIP) working group for enabling serverless operation of Session Initiation Protocol (SIP). This chapter introduces the P2PSIP by presenting its background and purpose, operational principles, current status, and application areas. The focus is on the challenges and problem areas from the viewpoint of standardization and related research. The mobile- and heterogeneous environments are considered with special care. The authors provide a glance to the existing and emerging solutions that may be used in tackling the mentioned challenges and thus paving the way for successful deployment of P2PSIP in mobile environments.

During the 1960s, computing was introduced for the first time in Egypt. However, the use and applications was limited to the government and the public sector. It was only during the early 1980s that the introduction and diffusion of computing was widespread due to the personal computer evolution worldwide. The introduction of personal computers had different implications on organizational development and growth and was coupled with other developments in the information technology industry that relate to hardware penetration, software development, and the build-up of the telecommunications infrastructure. This chapter demonstrates the current status of information technology in Egypt with a focus on the assessment of the software industry as a major building block of the information technology industry and a possible active contributor to business and socioeconomic development at large.

Data Technology industry has been utilizing the customary social databases for around 40 years. Be that as it may, in the latest years, there was a generous transformation in the IT business as far as business applications. Remain solitary applications have been supplanted with electronic applications, conferred servers with different proper servers and committed stockpiling with framework stockpiling. Lower expense, adaptability, the model of pay-as-you-go are the fundamental reasons, which caused the conveyed processing are transformed into reality. This is a standout amongst the hugest upsets in Information Technology, after the development of the Internet. Cloud databases, Big Table, Sherpa, and SimpleDB are getting the opportunity to be more natural to groups. They featured the hindrances of current social databases as far as convenience, adaptability, and provisioning. Cloud databases are basically utilized for data raised applications, for example, stockpiling and mining of gigantic information or business information. These applications are adaptable and multipurpose in nature. Various esteem based data organization applications, such as managing an account, online reservation, e-exchange and stock organization, and so on are delivered. Databases with the help of these sorts of uses need to incorporate four essential highlights: Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, and Durability (ACID), in spite of the fact that utilizing these databases isn't basic for utilizing as a part of the cloud. The objective of this paper is to discover the points of interest and disservices of databases generally utilized in cloud frameworks and to survey the difficulties in creating cloud databases
