Which of the following is a common application area for SIP?

SIP is a signaling protocol used to set up, modify, and terminate real-time multimedia sessions such as voice, video, and messaging. That makes it ideal for applications that require establishing and coordinating ongoing communication between parties, like video conferencing, distributing streaming multimedia, instant messaging, presence information, and file transfer. The other options involve tasks outside of signaling for live sessions—weather data collection, battery management, and genetic sequencing analysis—so they aren’t typical SIP applications.
