Hello,<br/><br/>Should I omit the definite article in the following sentence?<br/><br/>For a VoIP call, (<i>the</i>) call control signaling is separated from (<i>the</i>) media.<br/><br/>What about this?<br/>For that reason, both (<i>the</i>) call control signaling and (<i>the</i>) media need to be protected.<br/><br/>Thanks,<br/>Ron
