General information on the research area:
The telecom world is moving from a vertically integrated towards a
horisontally layered architecture where service control is separated from
access and transport in a way that enables a rich set of hybrid services
to be provided across several networks. At the same time network operators
open their networks for 3rd party service providers by offering open interfaces
such as Parlay/OSA. This opening of the value-chain it is expected to create
a global market where the ability to rapidly develop and deploy end-user
service becomes a critical success factor. The topic of this area is enabling
technology for rapid development and deployment of open services.
-
Open service platforms: open service control interfaces such as Parlay/OSA
and the underlying resources accessed through them.
-
Open service execution frameworks: service architectures and service execution
environments for advanced hybrid services.
-
Methodology: languages and methods for rapid service development.
-
Experimental services.
