   Dial-Out Group Messaging session:

 

  A user invites a person or a group of users to participate in a message session. In the case of group communication the invited group may be a pre-defined IM group or a list of users selected from the calling user's phone book as temporary arrangement (so-called ad hoc IM group). In the latter case,in particular,the ability to see other user's avaliablity,or presence statuses,before making the dial-out session brings clear additional value for the usr. A dial-out session suits unplanned situations or cases where the participants must be automatically accept messaging request or it may ask permission to accept the communication request from the end user.

 

 

 Join-in Group Messaging session:

 

 Join-in messaging session, chat group, where the participants themselves explicitly choose to join a IM messaging session.In this way users have full control over which groups they participate in. They will never receive any traffic unless they have joined the group.Join-in operation is well suited for communication during any routing or pre-planned activities.Participation in a chat group is analogous to real-life activities such  as watching TV, going to a movie or a participating in a meeting. Chat IM sessions can go on for hours, with actual communication comprising only a small portion of the total session time. The user should also be able to participate in several chat sessions simultaneously.

 

 A chat-group can be a pubilc group without any access control or a private group with a list of members.

 

 Public groups are open to anyone who knows the group identification (SIP URI of the group). The group identification can be found,for instance, on an operator portal or chat room listing. Public IM chat groups are suitable as a open discussion fortums on general and specific topics.

 

 Private groups are groups where access is limited to pre-defined users. For private groups need to know the group identification (SIP URI of the group) and they need to have the right to join the group session. Private IM chat groups are best suited when you don't want to expose your messages beyond a well defined group.
